HOPES NOT SUSTAINED.
Kot Enough Change in the Metal
Markets to Say Much About.
A 9,000-TON OUTPUT REDUCTION
Doesn't Eeem to Figure as a Factor in
Trade Improvement.
PITTSBURG IS IN IT WITH THE REST
tSFrCIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.
Xew York, April 14. The Iron Age, in
its trade report to-morrow, will say:
As the result of the Philadelphia failure,
a number of cargoes of foreign ore afloat,
aggregating about 10,000 tons, haTe sold at
low prices. Among the ores thus sold were
Seriphos, Tafna and Porman, the latter sell
ing as low as 6)c a unit These ores, al
though Bessemer, have been purchased by
makers of foundry iron in Eastern Pennsyl
vania, and, having given them some low
priced stock, helped them to that extent
It looks as though little lake ore would go
into the Lehigh and Schuylkill Valleys this
year.
Our monthly blast furnace returns show
a reduction in the weekly capacity running
from 193,902 gross tons weekly on March 1
to 185.4G2 tons April 1. This reduction of
8,440 tons weekly would represent a dimin
ution of output of about 3G,000 tons a
month, while the increased stock during
3Iarch was about 56,000 tons.
An Interesting Table oT rignres.
A closer examination reveals some inter
esting facts, however, as the following table
sbows:
March In- Monthly re
crease In duction In
st'ks, t's. ca'ity, ton.
Toko J5.o0 23.o
Anthracite 18,000 9,000
harcoal 22.000 4,000
Totals 550OJ S6.000
This would indicate that coke iron con
sumption is gaining in production, that the
reduction in output is inadequate in'anthra
cite pig, and that charcoal iron is still pil
ing up last
The primary pig iron markets, so far as
foundry and foree 'grades are concerned,
show little change during the week. Chi
cago and Detroit report a heavier movement
in charcoal iron, while Pittsburg notes a
weakening tendency in Bessemer pig, with
out, however, reporting any business of
magnitude.
Philadelphia, under a .l'gt trading,
shows some irregularity in billets, and
Pittsburg does not seem to be holding well
to the nominal quotations reached when the
majority of sellers and buyers had with
drawn. In manufactured iron and steel the hopes
entertained concerning the beginning of
spring business have not been realized thus
tar, although the pipe trade is showing in
dication" of a revival in Pittsburg. Plates
till rank first as the most sharply contested
Inanch. The Bunalo order was, like the
S racuse business, captured by Pittsburg,
after a very sharp struggle.
rrgllsh tellers Cut Bight Out.
Chicago reports quite a lively movement
in merchant steel, and notes as an item of
spei-ial interest that Howe. Brown & Co.
have taken an order for tool steel for Mex
ico, in direct competition with English sel
lers. To-drv is to settle the question whether
the European conper interest will fall into
line with" American producers in keeping
production within bounds. There have
been some purchases of lead by consumers,
while spelter is better under further export
sales. Spot tcrne plates have sold in a
more liberal way.
The foreign markets are reviewed by cable
from London as follows:
Very little change has taken place in the
pig-iron warrant market, and dealings are
still on a limited scale, despite continued
withdrawals of stock from store and limited
production. The latter influences are ap
parently oflset by general trade depression.
Inside holders of warrants are evidently
awaiting a further depletion of stocks before
engaging in extensive Operations. Outsiders
still hold aloof. Exports of pig iron last
month were ."57.000 tons, against 55,000 tons
in March, 1891. There are now only 78
Scotch and 8 Cleveland furnaces blowing.
Late trading in warrants was at 41s for
Scotch, 37s 9Jf d for Cleveland and 47s for
hematite. Stocks in Connal's stores now
include 482,000 tons Scotch and 129,000 tons
Cleveland:
Little Change In Pier Tin.
Pig tin has been firm, with cash lots in
good request, but very little outside specu
lative interest The general situation is
about same as it was last week.
Prices for merchant copper receded early
in the week to 43 6s 3d, but have since
improved under free buying, believed to
have been in good part for American ac
count. Dividends on mining shares are an
nounced as follows: Rio Tinto 10 per cent,
Tharsis, 12 per cent; Mason Barry. 1 per
cent a small dividend on the latter, due
to expense of reconstruction.
For tin plate there has been a brisk in
quiry, but the proportion of business was
small, owing to difference in buyers' and
sellers views. Exports last month 36,000
tons, against 47.000 tons in March, 1891.
The quantity sent to the United States was
23,000 tons and 38,000 tons, respectively.
Stocks at shipping ports show a further in
creae. Work is soon to be resumed at the
Trelorest mills.

of his hostess in leaving the table and mak

WHEAT BREAKS AGAIN.
A Net Lots of 1 1-2 Cent for the Day No
Support for Prices Either mt Home or
AbroadThe Crop Summary Bearish.
CHICAGO There was no local support to
prices of wheat, and outside buying orders
were wholly lacking. Corn, oataporlr, lard
and ribs all suffered. A break of nearly So
in wheat occurred, and the closing to-nieht
compared witn 24 hours previous shows a
net loss of abontlJc- While the opening
sales were at very near the closing flguresof
last night, the mattcet betrayed much weak
ness right from the start, and a decline
of 13c soon resulted. The public cables
came in steady to higher, but the private
advices received were quite the opposite.
Domestic markets were also inclined to sell
lower. Trade was dull and the business very
narrow, being chiefly confined to tho pro
fessional talent and room-traders. The Cin
cinnati Price CurrenVt crop summary of the
winter wheat situation was generallv
thought quito bearish, as showing that sub
stantia progress had been made during the
week, and that confidence In a good crop
was Increasing, while tho authorities of
Michigan, in their official report, gave the
condition in that State as veiy satisfactory
nnd nearlv cnnal to that of a vear ago. The
result was a gradual development of weak
ness. The demand grew very slack and the
selling was generoii".
May opened at 81KS2e, but ruled neavy,
and soon went off to 0Jc: There was then
a stiff rally to 81Je. but it soon started on
the down grade again; touched 80Jic; rallied
some, and at 12 o'clock was about SOKo.
During the last hour there was somerafiy
on a general disposition of shorts to cover
in view of the holiday to-morrow. The fact
that Paris cables came In a shade higher
also helpedsome Mav, after selling at SOa,
sparingly reacted to S0Jc and at the close
was steady at fcoc
Corn was rather firm early and a higher
for May, influenced by the bad weather
which was expected to cut off receipts and
affect the grading: but on tho subsequent
bieak In wheat corn soon lost all its firm
ness and sold off about Jc. There was not
much activity, and the market closed heavy
at little bofter than bottom prices.
Oats ruled lower, largely duo to heavy re
ceipt". There was a fair trade. Mav began
at 29Jic, advanced to 29V29c, and then de
clined to 2SJfc, recovering later to2Sc, the
closing price, which was He below last even
ing's final figures.
The trade in provisions was light and the
prices easier. A good demand for hogs re
ported from the yards gave momentary
strength at the opening, but the subsequent
weakness in grain had a sympathetic in
fluence nnd was worked bv the local scalo-
ers to their profit May pork opened at
from $10 1"X to $10 20. but declined in the
course of an hour's trading to $10 05 and
closed at $10 10, against $10 20 yesterday.

THE CITY'S GROWTH.
Nearly a Million Dollars Invested in
Buildings This Year.
THE RECORD OP THE TEAR TO DATE
What Rapid'. Transit Is Doing to Develop
the Suburban Districts. ,
PECULIARITIES OF LEADING STREETS
Lists of buildings in course of construc
tion or for which plans have been prepared
given in this column from time to time,
show that operations in this line are of
greater magnitude than generally supposed.
The Inspector's office figures to date show
these results: January, E2 permits, 65 im
provements, $87,824; February, 137 permits,
1C9 improvements, $194,886; March, 178 per
mits, 224 improvements, $353,618; April, to
date, 86 permits, 113 improvements, $177,-
261. Total permits, in a little over three
months, 453, representlng561 improvements,
the large majority dwellings, at an esti
mated cost of $815,592. Considering the
long period of bad weather and almost im
passable streets which materially retarded
activity in this line of business, and which
are still serious drawbacks, the record is
highly satisfactory. It shows that Pitts
burg is growing right along in defiailce of
obstacles.
Encouragement for Home-Seekers.
Eapid transit has opened a large field for
home-seekers in the suburbs. Almost every
thrifty person in the city wants to be a land
owner. Those unable to purchase in any of
the old districts on account ot high prices,
can, without much inconvenience, pitch
their tents in new territory brought into the
.market and made available by improved
transportation. Of all'the influences which
have combined to expand the material
growth of Pittsburg rapid transit is by far
the most important It has built up thou
sands of acres which under the old system of
locomotion were practically worthless, xms
accession of territory and its improvement
have added largely to the revenue of the
city by increasing the number of taxpayers.
It will be years before Pittsburg will ac
complish its destiny by absorbing the coun
ty, but with the progress of rapid transit the
work will go forward until coneummated.
New commercial and business centers will
be established capable of sustaining large
populations, and comfortable homes fill the
valleys and hillsides. - To-some this forecast
may seem too enthusiastic, but that it is
based on probability is shown by 'the inter
est which rich men are taking in county real
estate. Thev could give no stronger proof
of their faith" in the future of the city.
Diversion of Business.
.Many of the downtown streets exhibit
peculiarities which are seen nowhere else,
and are boomed by influences which either
do not exist or have no weight in other
quarters. Fourth avenue, for instance, is
largely devoted to the banking, brokerage
aud real estate interests. Commission men
monopolize the best part of Liberty street.
Fifth avenue is the fashionable shopping
thoroughfare. The iron trade is concen
trated on Water street. This has been the
custom for so many years that it is next to
impossible to convince any of these people
that they could do as well or better else
where. But there are signs of a change
which will bring in a new era by breaking
up old associations and forming new ones.
Improvements are under way or in contem
plation which will drive certain kinds of
business from the leading thoroughfares. to
the side streets or bevond the so-called bus
iness center. In this way the business area
will be enlarged and all interests benefited.
It will be a great thing for Pittsburg when
outsiders cease complaining of inability to
secure business stands in good locations;
but-the greatest benefit which the new order
of things will confer upon the community
will be.its restraining influence upon owners
in the matter of rents.
Homes for the People.
Ten permits were issued yesterday repre
senting 14 improvements, aggregating $23,
785. The most important are these: Henry
Smith, four brick dwellings on Elm street,
Seventh ward, $9,000; W. M. Granger,
brick dwelling on Dithridge street, Eleventh
ward, $7,000; James H. Kiffell, frame dwell
ing on Joel street, Thirty-second ward,
$1,450; J. C Armstrong, frame dwelling on
Taylor street, Sixteenth ward, $1,985.
Seven were for less than $1,000.
Special Features oTTrade.
Stock and financial institutions of the city
will be closed to-day.
The building fnnd of the Sixth U. P.
Chui'ch has been increased to $102,000. Sev
eral of the wealthy members remain to be
heard from.
Ground will soon be broken for two nice
dwellings on Locust street, Edgewood. Talk
s airain hcaidof sub-dividing a part of the
McKelvy farm adjoining the borough on, the
northeast.
Baltimore and Ohio stock has been listed
on the London Stock Exchange.
The next dividend on 1,000 shares of
Northern Pacific preferred has been soldby
an ex-official or the company for one-half of
1 per cent.
The annual report of the Fidelity Title and
Trust Company, relating to the sinking
funds of the city, affords evidence not only
of public confidence in the integrity and
capacity of the management or this institu
tion, but also ot the magnltnde of its opera
tions. The Fidelity has clearly demon
strated that it Is no longer necessary to re
sort to Philadelphia or New Tort to secuie
the capauie nanaiing oi large trust ana cor

COALERS AND INDUSTRIALS
ALMOST MONOPOLIZE THE BUSINESS
ON WALE STTtEET.
Ontario and Western Prominent for a Mo
ment Among the Specialties Lake
Shore, an Exception, Blses Stsadlly All
Day Railroad Bonds Bather Lively.
New York. April 14. In to-day's market
the Coal Stocks furnished a large portion of
the business done, and in all Of them marked
gains were seen. The Industrials were the
only other group of stocks showing any ani
mation, and of the specialties only Ontario
and Western made any improvement. Pend
ing the holidays there was a natural desire
on the part of those haying ventures in the
market to even up, and as tho bulk of the
outstanding contracts were those on the
short side, the covering movement at one
time assumed considerable proportions, es
pecially in the Coalers, and most of ihe ma
terial advance In those shares is attributed
to this Interest.
The general market showed the general
apathy of business, though the firm temper
was animated to the end. The opening
prices were in almost all cases from ii
per cent better than those of last evening,
nnd tho early dealings saw further slight
Improvements all along the line, but only In
the Coal Stocks and the Industrials was
there anything like animation, and the im
portant movements were confined to n few
of them. Among the specialties Ontarloaud
Western became prominent, hut this move
ment was extremely short-lived, though it
attained material proportions while it las' ed.
The only stoclc outside of the Coalers and
Industrials which scored any material ad
vance was Lake Shore, which rose steadily
throughout the day, and in this respect was
a marked contrast to the other strong points
ot the day- Tho close was quiet but firm
after the reactiou, generally at fractional
gains over last night's figures. The im
portant changes, ho ever, include advances
of per cent each In Lake Shoie and Jersey
Central; Lackawanna, 1; Bending, 1;
Cordage, li, and Ontario mid Western, ya.
The total sales of stocks to-dav were 3s8,
232 shaies, including: Atchison, 9 331, Chica
go Gas, !),7.)0: Delawaio, Lackaw.mna and
Western. 20,120: Delaware nnd Hudson, 3,333;
Erie, 20,830;. Like Shoie, 4,595; Louisville and
Nashville, 5,000: New Jersov Central, 4,700;
Northern Pacific. 4,530; New England, 14,123;
Beading, 119,120: St. Paul. 7,800; Union Pacific,
4,000: Western Union, 5,000.
Railroad bonds were unusually active
again, with a firm temper throughout the
entiie session, though without many
material changes. The Heading issues and
the Richmond and West Point were strong
points, as well as the activo'speclalties, and
thedeallngsln these bonds loot over one
half of the entiie business done. Tilt! ad
vances wcie not all heavy, and the Reading
Convertibles, with-a gain of 1 percent, Jit
63" marks the "limit of the rise. The total
sales were $,889,(i09.

$601,231 2a There was nothing new td talk

THE SMAST CONDUCIOB.
Out Twenty Dollars for Trying to Get liven
With a Change Fiend.
The way some people work street cap con
ductors is amusing, says a bank teller in
the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. The other
day a conductor came in here to get 520
worth of nickels. He keeps a little ac
count here, so I gave them to him and
asked him what he wanted with them. He
said a man on his line had been riding tree
for .a long time by offering a 520 bill in pay
ment of his fare, and he was going to load
him up with nickels the next time. He
put them into a tin bucket, keeping 5 cents
out, and went away laughing. In a few
days he came back triumphant.
He stood nt.my window and told me how
he had worked." it. He laughed long aud
hard as he told how the man had handed
him the bill as usual and how he had opened
Lthe locker under the seat and pulled out his
bucket ot nickels, and despite the expostu
lations of the man had poured them into' his
hands and walked away. The fellow would
never try that on him again, he said. He
made out a savings deposit slin and handed
me the bill. I. didn't like "to do it, but I'

One of the most successful uses to which
electricity has been applied lately is for the
cure of asthma, says Dr. A. S. Atkinson, in
exchange. This unpleasant affection of the
respiratory organs has defied the most
medicines that the medical world could
suggest,', and the only relief seemed to be in
'a change of climate. Florida, pine woods
have become the great sanitary resort for
people suffering with asthma; but no'w elec
tricity has been applied so that the oppres
sive feeling ' in the chest is removed, the
respiratory nerves- are polarized, and the
nervous irritability steadily quieted.
The popular use of electricity ior asthma
may yet be the outcome of the experiments,
fl-a such an effective agent will be cheaper
in the end than the many medicines and
patent nostrums. Each sufferer will be
able to apply the electricity to himself

Eggs are again reduced, and prices here
now, correspond! with prices at other trade
centers. Probabilities are that bottom has
been reached for the present and that better
prices will obtain before Easter dawns.
Butter is easy at the decline already noted,
a decline equal to 6c per pound in less than
two weeks. .New vegetables from the far
South are in bountiful supply, and demand
is also good. Bermuda potatoes are scarce
and very firm at higher prices than have
prevailed any time this season. Poultry is
quiet and slow! owing to very heavy re
ceipts from the lower Ohio Valley the past
few days. Tennessee and Kentucky have of
late been sending large quantities of poultry
to this market for the reason that better
prices have been obtained here than at Cin
cinnati and Louisville. Tropical fruits are
moving freely at quotations.

AHZGKOlIOH TAMEE'S DEATH.
Pronnced Upon by a Large Bear
and
Killed In Sight or a Crowd.
Pall Mall Budget.!
A terrible occurrence, was witnessed at
"Womb-well & Bailey's menagerie and circus
the other night, while an exhibition was
being held at Hednesford, Staffordshire.
Bellah Montarno, a lion tamer, was in the
act of entering a cage containing two bears
and a hyena, when the mud which had
adhered to his boots caused him to slip.
He fell on the floor of the den, and the
larger of the bears immediately pounced
upon him, and seized him by the back of
the head with its teeth, causing serious in
juries. Some of the spectators were so hor
rified at the ghastly struggle that they fled
panic stricken from the menagerie; but
large number of coal miners and
others remained behind. Montarno was only
armed with a stick, and it was seen that he
was completely powerless, the bear tearing
him about the head and face in a most sav
age manner. The shrieks of the onlookers
brought Mr. Frank Bostock from his office
to the scene. His predicament? was a terri
ble one, and makes his prompt assistance all
the more commendable. Both bears and the
hyena were spoken of as being quite docile
even to strangers, but for some unexplained
reason, the hyena has shown itself the bitter
enemy of Mr. Bostock; in fact, on more
than one occasion this hyena has exhibited
an- eagerness to get Mr. Bostock within
reach. Mr. Bostock perhaps pever realized
danger so keenly before, but without a mo
ment's hesitation he called for a stick. In
response some one handed him a cane.
Fragile a weapon as this was with which to
enter 'upon such a deadly encounter, he
sprang into the cage, and while keeping an
eye on the hyena began to belabor the
bear. ,
Bv this time Montarno, who had received
injuries of the most shocking description,
was becoming enfeebled from loss ot blood,
and, as though conscious of his mastery, the
bear attacked him with 'increased ferocity.
Alter some minutes, which seemed like
hours both to Montarno and Mr. Bostock,
the bear released its hold, and the lion
tamer, with terrible gashes about the
face and head, and with clothes torn
almost to shreds, was dragged from the den.
As he was carried out ot the place to the
Auglesey Hotel, he remarked, "I know I
am going to die." Dr. Butler was sum
moned, but Montarno was bejond hope,
and although retaihing consciousness to the
last, died within half an hour. The de
ceased, who was 45 years of age, was an
African negro, and had been connected
with the' menagerie for something like 20
years. During that time he had several
encounters with both bears and lionsj but
these experiences, so far from convincing
him oMhe danger of his calling, are said to
have produced additional daring.

When to Use Spectacles.
The eye doctor who tells you to wear
glasses while your eyes are good to keep
them so, can be safely written down a hum
bug and a quack, says an oculist in the St.
Louis Qlebe-Dcmocrat. I am not saying any-
thing against shaded, or even plain glasses
j to protect the eyes from dust, although even
these are of doubtful value, but the man
who says he can give you glasses to keep a
good pair of eyes in firstclass shape has
either got some glasses 9ft on his hands
which ne wants to sell off, or he doesn't
know what he is talkingabout. The moment
it becomes painful to read in a good light
with the naked eye glasses are required, but
until then they are best left severely alone.
