THE TRADE OUTLOOK.

CORN' THE STRtfXG CEREAL FACTOR
OrncE op The Dispatch, J
Pittsburg, Satcrdat, May 21.
In lines of country produce tliero Is llttlo
new or strange. Homo raised garden stuff
has been lery much retarded by the ad
verse w eather. There havebeen so few sunny
day- the past lew weeks that nomegardeners
have very little to biing to markets. All
garden stuff is at least threo weeks behind
Its average time It will be seen by refer
ence to tho homo market column that all
thins in dairy product lines are drifting
downwaid. Country butter ha been a dru?
on tile ur.ti Let all the. week, and prices are
merely nominal. The supply of cheese is
steadily increasing, and prices are fully lc
nerlb lower than they were a week aeo.
The week to come piomlses oven larger re
ceipts and still lower prices for both butter
and cheese.
The strawberry zono has shifted from
Tcnneftseo to Maryland in the past week.
Qu-ilitv of offering:, in this line is below par,
and only the best are in demand.
In Cereal Lines.
The boom in shell corn has been the prin
cipal feature of cereal markets! during the
past week. Prices are advanced fully "a per
bushel since the beginning of tho week.
Ear corn has not kept pace with the upward
movement of shelled. Oats have also
Joined in theupwaid movement and prices
at e about :e per bushel above prices of a
week acq.
Wheat, flour and millfeed fail to join in
the drift toward higher prioes, and are
quiet at about the same price as prevailed a
neck ago. Hay is a nde loner, lor the
good reason tnat pasturage is now at its
best.
The "stock of flour in the hands of our
Jobber is reroited very light. Dealers
line been pursuing tho hand to mouth
policy of late, because of expensive
experience in the early pair, of tho
Fcaon. The price of flour is relatively
lowcrthan the pneo of wheat, and either
tlielattci mustgodown or tho former go
up.
Hides and Calfskins.
The stoppage of Xcw England shoe leath
er tanneis for 6) days has already had the
effect to uepress the market for all light
weights in the hide line. Our reduction of
;;con bnff hides noted a few davs ago is
more than Instilled byevents. Some tanners
claim that the reduction should have been
c instead of lc per lb. Tho best offer that
one of our lcauing tannery would make on
Saturdii3-for light hides was 4c per lb., and
at this offer w ns not anxious to buy. fctcer
lilde aie'io lower than they were a week
ngo.
Hides and cilf-kin markets are for tho
present iii u demoralized condition and the
future no man can see.
Following are prices paid by dealers

In Footwear X.Ines.
licit! is what the Boston Herald has to say
of the situation and outlook concerning
leather and shoes;
"The situation In boots and shoes Is
stronger, from the effect of tho leather com
1 initions The Jobbers seem to try to be.in
diffcrent tothe situation, but manufacturers
are aware that they are slightly uneasy.
They are hurrying un goods that they nat
urally would not care for for some weeks,
and they are placing some orders that man
u'nctnrers were doubtful abont getting only
n w eek or t o aeo. In lact, it may reusona
bl be clalired that there is stionger maikct
all alonr the line of leather and boots and
shi'cs Generally manufactnrets are busy,
mil of late thev have been getting more
3!lers on fall goods, with occasionally an
orlci foi some of tho better selling lines of
spilng joods.
" ith the manufacturers of special lines
oi goods the market is In excellent shape.
These manufactuters are very busy, as m
led they have been all the season. In some
lines or special goods, with special brands,
manufacturers are not only busy, but they
have orders for a long time ahead. They
have o-dcrs to the extent that they are not
ptepatcd to take anv more order. In such
roods prices are, of course, very steady and
vety Arm.
The Fosition of the Leather JlarKet
Is a very interesting one, and it also seems
to be a crv Ann one. In the first place tho
sole leather agreement to not wet any hides
for 0 dajs seems to bo an assured success,
to arasthe tanners are concerned, while
tlic mn e ticnt to check tho production of
upper le'icher will doubtless he attempted.
ami tne promoters oi tne plan are very san
.uineoi success. The tanners and curriers
of rough and upper leathers have more gen
erally 1-igned fie agreement to cither shut
dim n altogether lor CO days or else to cut off
production one-half for the next four
months The Western tanners have entered
more heaitilv Into the arransement than It
was fenre.i that thev would. The idea is
that sufficient support is already assured
to make the attempt of the project a cer
tainty." LIVE STOCK MARKETS.

SATURDAY'S PRODUCE MARKETS
OIICA GO Corn sold to-day at 71c abushel
for May delivery, making one of the greatest
jumps ever known in tho history of the
Chicago Board of Trade. At one tlme7o
was hid, a leap or exactly lie since last
night. The price did not go up by fractions,
but by cents at a time, Jumping from 65o to
70c at one bound. The bulk of the trading,
however, was in July. The fluctuations in
that option were not of a startling character.
In wlieat tho feeling was unsettled and
nervous, and most of tho advance of Frl
daywas lost.

nearly all tho lost ground was recovered. It
cloed with a fractional loss for the week,
but about a point better than the lowest
quotation.
Stocks making gains for tho week are:
Chanters Gas . Citizens' Traction K.

w oie perhaps a trifle weakor. Stocks show

RAILROAD SHARES REVIVED,
The Gains Only Fractional Tho Better
Feeling Comes Too Late to Save Bock
Island Plenty of Both Baying; and
Selling Bonds Active.
New Tor.K, May 21. The stock market to
day was more active than of late, and while
the transactions were, as usual, mostly pro
fessional, there was a bettor feeling in the
room, and prices, after some wild fluctua
tions, ended generally fractions higher than
last evening. Tho cbango in temper was,
undoubtedly, due primarily to the lact that
the short interest was getting altogether too
unwieldy, and it was discovered early this
morning that the sun actually did shine in
portions of the Western terrltory.whlch has
been visited by excessive rainfall during the
last week. The cry went up that some
thing would bo saved from the wreck,
and buying became the lashlou as selling has
been for the few days past; and while there
was no lack of selling, especially in theeaily
dealings, the preponderance of buyeis final
ly carried the day, andthe firstdrivemaiked
the limit of the docllno for the time being.
Tho buying did not begin earlv enough to
save Eock Island from a material decline,
Its loss on the drive being 1J per cent, but
other stocks, such ns Union Pacific, Missouri
Pacific nnd Reading, with a few of tho ln
nciivo shares, like Hocking Valley nnd
Omaha preferred, suffered soverely at tho
time. The downward movement, which had
every nppearanco of being brought about to
buy stocks upon, suddenly ceased and tho
recovery began and ceased only with tho
close of business. Tho close w as active and
firm to strong at or near the highost prices.

A VEXED QUESTION SETTLED.
Newfoundland and Canada Agree to Fix Up
Their Differences.
Ottawa, Ont., May 22. Special. His
Exellency, the Governor General, to-day-received
a telegraph message from tfae Gov
ernor of Newfoundland stating that his
Government had decided to accept the modus
vivendi offered some time ago by Canada and
return to the statu quo of 1883 for the cur
rent season, pending a conferencs with a
view to the permanent settlement of any
differencesof opinion on trade questions. The
Canadian Government at once expressed its
great pleasure at the acceptance of the of
fer, and assured the Newfoundland Gov
ernment that steps would be at once taken
to place the products of that country on the
same looting that they were previous to the
trouble between the two conntries oyer the
Bond-Blaine convention.
This is a happy termination of what
promised to be an unprofitable and un
pleasant tariff war. Ontario flour can again
go to Newfoundland, fish can once more
enter uanada Irce.

Properly combined they
are better than lard for all

Effect of This Wide-Awake Way
of Living.
Overtaxed, Overworked, and Overworried
Young and Oli
Class or Jorty Girls in Boston School
Answer Questions.
Maladies of the nervous system are Increasing
rapidly, especially In the m ore crowded portions of
the country.
Chicago is, to say tho least, one of tne keenest
and most wide-awake business cities In America.
In Chicago one-fifth of all deaths and almost a
third of all sickness Is due. In oneway aud another,
to nervous diseases.
Back In the fifties only one-twentieth of tho
deaths and one-twelfth of the sickness wtrc cred
ited to dlscasfw of the nervous system.
In explaining the great demand for Palne'i cel
ery compound, a member of the health Board In
an adjoining city said:
"The nervous systems of thousands of people In
this city are sorely overtaxed.
"And the danger of overwork exists as much
among children, almost, as among adults. But It
Is not so much overwork as over-worry that affects
fie health of the child and results in disease. A
class of 40 girls lu a Boston school was questioned
the other dav, and more than half the number
were conscious of loss of sleep and nervous ap
prehension on account of their school work."
A remarkable ease of suffering, that will find
many a parallel here, has recently come to light In
Detroit. It Illustrates the necessity of attending
In the right way to any of those Ills among chil
dren, as well as adults, that result from Impaired
nerves and Impure blood.
Mrs. 51. V. Uouln Is a devoted mother, whoso
four beautiful children (a Hkcnes3 of whom ap
pears above) arc watched over with the most ma
ternal affection. When the youngest was six w eeks
old a terrible eruption broke out all over her. Sev
eral physicians were consulted, and. while opin
ions varied, the disease was generally regarded as
salt rheum. Yet the usual remedies failed, and the
child grew worse Instead of better.
About that time the papers gave an account of a
ase that had been cured by the use of the famous
remedy discovered by Prof. Phelps of Dartmouth
college. Mrs. Gouln obtained some and commenced
giving It to the baby. The result was wonderf nl,
for In two weeks the sore3 were entirely healed,
and tho little one Is now entirely well. This was
solely due to the learned professor's discovery.
Palne's celery compound.
This was not all, and Mrs. Gouln. in a letter to
the physician of that city who reported the case,
tells additional proofs of the marvellous curative
powers of this compound. She wrote:
"My chlldrtn had the grippe last fall, and were
weak and ailing all winter. 1 tried physicians' pre
scriptions and everythlngmy friends recommended,
but without effect. I was fairly discouraged, for
they were so weak and feeble.
"But Palne's celery compound gave them
strength, a good appetite and made them strong
and well, to that they are now the picture of
health."
Such an experience naturally created some com
ment In Detroit, and the western medical Journals
have again taken to discussing the value of Dr.
Phelps' cervices in giving the compound to the
world.
A medicine which is used so successfully for
babes and chlldrea, it goes without saying, can do
no harm even to the most delicate. It never falls
to do good, restoring and strengthening the nerve
and biood, and curing disease.
East and west, and north and south, thousands
owe their health to it.
