THE TRADE OUTLOOK. Pittsburg's Drysoods Business in a Prosperous Condition. A GREAT KUSH FOR SUMMER GOODS. Garden Products Are Making Up for Ist Time in the Spring. THE LEATHER OUTLOOK AT CHICAGO Office of The Dispatch, ? Pittsburg, Tuesday, June 21. ( Everything in the line of garden stuff has been backward this season owing to the cold, wet spring. In general the products of the garden in this section are three weeks behind the average time. In the past week or two rapid strides have been made and it now looks as if the lost time would be fully made. up. Under the influence of hot weather and timely showers there has been an extraordinary growth since summer fairly started. The gardens around Pitts burg are non after so long a time in splen did shape, and the yield both as to quality and quantity promises to be a full av erage. An old-time Seville Island gardener in an interview to-day had this to say of the outlook: "I have never seen garden stuff come lorward as rapidly as it has done the past week or tiro. The ground was wet, and the extremely hot June weather, accompanied with light showers, has brought even-thing forward in a won derful manner. Everything in my garden looks first-rate. Tomatoes will be some what late, but the condition of plants is all that could be desired." A Ll-ht Trait Crop. The latest advices from fruit centers indi cate a light yield this season. In this vi cinity the promise for a good yield of cher ries, plums, quinces and apples is far from good. Au untimely storm in the early spring, which covered the branches of the fruit trees with ice proves to have been a blight to the fruit crop in this section. Certain it is that fruit will be much dearer the com ing tall than it was last fall In the great fruit growing regions on the Eastern shore the same conditions prevail as here. Under the influence of the declining prospects for fruit, canned and dried fruits which have been unusually dull since the beginning ot the year, already give signs of animation and jobbing prices are already advanced. A IlrHlthy DrTgroods iluslnesa. The wholesale drygoods trade of Pitts burg was never in better shape at this sea son of the year than it is at present. A representative of one of the leading firms ot the citv had this to say in an interview to dav: "Our volume of trade lor the months oi Ma and June has been fully 10 per cent larger thau for the corresponding period of last year. The rush for light summer goods and notions the past week or two has been unprecedented. Light colors in the line of domestic goods have the lead this season more than for many summers past Fancy dress goods are a shade higher this season than last under the operation of the increased tariff, but increased cost has made no impression on volume of trade. Fall orders for flannels and blankets have been coming in freely of late, and all signs point to a still liea!e- trade in the fall than we had in th sprin,riml summer. Fall goods do not usually movej freely till the latter part of July, but we have now orders enough on our books to insure a brisk trade through the last quarter of the year. In the line of gent's furnishing goods the same activity is reported as on dry goods lines. Tho Leather Outlook. The current number of the Chicago Hide and Lather has this to say of the situation of leather and hides: The solo leather situation is becoming vcrv intei estinjr. xno Duraenso-mo buiplus Jia- been leduced. and holders of hemlock; union and oak sole are feeling firmer in thciriiews. Some buyers placed contracts in sood season for supplies of bottom stock. 1 hose who doubted the lesolutlon of tan ners to curtail production, postponed pur chases and now And that it is less easy to obtain concessions in selections and piices. It is believed that foreign buyeis arc not too well supplied with American leather, and that thev arc limiting their purchases to the smallest possible limit, in order to soften the market. Holders, with this Know ledge, are naturally determined in their views to sustain values. Grains, splits, calf, and kip have not been actively inquired for, but seem to hold their own pretty well on tho quotation lists. Upper leather tanners seem so earnest in their de tciniinatiou to restrict production that their anticipation of an improvement in values has some Justification. Oak and hemlock harness leathers aie dull and do pi esed. Trices, as a rule, are very low, and tanners feel much discouraged. It would not be a surprise if the harness tanners fol low eel tho examplo ot the shoe leather men, and met to discuss needed lemedics in their business. The Chicago packer hide market is not bv nny means in the condition fondly hoped mid piaycd for. While many tanners nsreca to stop wetting hides, no restriction was placed on their buying. In consequence, tho Cliicaro packers have not onlv been selling quite freeh, but have been refuslnc to take orders for late kill nnttl their spring hides are cleaned up. Orders for several carloads ot hides are not infrequent. Country hides aie -low and somewhat neelected. Keceipts, however, are not oppressive; this tends to sustain values. LIYE STOCK MARKETS.

Carl Von Pustow, importer and custom house broker, and his partner Otto Schraeider, and John Fortman, their shipping clerk, were arrested in April charged with paying Edward Simons, an assistant weigher in the public stores, to underweigh si large importation of firecrackers which arrived on the steamship Austria on No vember 20 last. Von Pnstow was on trial to-day before Jndge Benedict and a jury in the United States Circuit Court. The first witness called by the prosecution was Tortman. the clerk, who gets 512 a week. He said that he met Simons in the street a few days belore the arrival of the Austria and had some conversation with him. Simons broached the subject ot underweighing the 4,344r packages of fire "crackers. Simons intimated that he would underweigh the poods if the right thing were done by him. Fortman reported this conversation to Mr. Von Pustow, who made no reply. Simons has given Fort man a memorandum slip on which was written the true weights of a portion of the packages.of fire-crackers and the "allowances" he would make in weigh ing them. Fortman afterward destroyed this paper. The witness then told of pay ing two sums of money to Simons. Simons admitted his guilt on tne witness stand, and went into the details of the fraud. The foreign value of the fire crackers in Von Pustow's invoice was 514, 075 55, the duties 518,224 64, and 'the home value, $32,300 19. The lot was seized -and will be sold at auction in the Federal Building some time before July 4. Open- High- Low ing, est. est.

Bearing of Becent Transactions Upon the Future "of the Market. ' THE GREAT NORTHSIDE ARTERY. Viewers Finishing lheir Work, Which Will Prohahly Be Approved. BRIMSTONE CORNER IS NOT FOR SALE The realty market is active for the season. Snch dullness as exists represents a lack of speculative activity and not of investment interest. Not for years has there been more hard cash ready for investment in lands and houses as at present. Several transactions of more than ordinary interest have been ciosea witnin tne last lew aays, ana otners of equal magnitude are pending. These movements indicate in a general way the disposition of capitalists and their confi dence in realty as an investment. They also point to a good market in the future. Be cent sales have not been confined to any particular district, but have been well scat tered, showing that all localities are pros pering. Bf jlns to Look Like Business. Preliminary work for the improvement of Perrysvillp avenue on the Northside is pro gressing. Viewers are now engaged in as sessing benefits and damages, and expect to complete their labors in a few days. No special opposition to their report is looked for, as the people are anxious to have the matter settled, so that actual work can go forward. The widening of this thorough fare as contemplated will have a stimulat ing effect npon all lines of business in that quarter, but upon none more than real estate. It will open up to settlement a large extent of territory, which is at pres ent unavailable by reason of its inaccessi bility, and being a natural outlet tor the city, it will be in great favor with people contemplating the erection of rural homes. There are a number.of building schemes on foot, which will begin to erystalize as soon as contracts for the improvement of the avenue are let. I'ractically Out of tho Market. The prospect for selling the ST. E. Church property, corner of Smithfield street and Seventh avenue, is very remote. Some months ago It was placed in the hands of "W. A. Herron & Sons for sale, but no satisfactory offer being received, it was withdrawn, and is now practically out of the market A member of the congrega tion said yesterday. "For one I am de cidedly opposed to parting with this property. It is the cradle of Methodism in Pittsburg. Its sale for business purposes would leave the central part of the citv without a church of our denomination. " It is understood the best offer for the property was about $3,000 a foot front. Scored a Success. The auction sale of lota in Mayfield on Monday last' was a decided success. About 1,300 people took advantage of the free din ner, free concert, free tickets, and beautiful shade in Mayfield grove. About 1 o'clock Major A. J. Pentecost, the auctioneer, took his stand, and by 4 olclock 27 lots were knocked down to the highest bidder, prices ranging from 5450 to 52,000. John K. Eff ing & Co., agents for the Mayfield plan, de serve great credit for the way the sale was conducted; thev expect to have another about July 1. Three or four well-known contractors are hustling for the 5300 pre mium offered to the .buyer completing the first house. Several of the purchasers bought as an investment, but the majority bought to improve at once. vMayfield pos sesses many attractions tor home-seekers. It is on the line of the Perrysville avenue electric road. Yesterday's Bulldlne Permits. Ten permits were issued yesterday for 29 improvements, all estimated to cost 540,580.

There is an active movement in Baldwin township realty, due to the prospect of rapid transit at an early day. The bulk of the propel ty on Federal street, Allegheny, belongs to estates. This ex plains tho absence of building enterprise in that quarter. Several Improvements are in contemplation, however. No. 120 will be re placed by a handsome live-story modern structure. The London Stock Exchange will be closed every Saturdav throughout the summer. Some of the finest manufacturing sites in the world are situated on the Monongahela river between Pittsburg and McKeesport.

A gentleman stated yesterday that he knew of at least 130 families in Pittsburg who had either gone or were going shortly. All sorts of reasons are given by people Euro pean bound. A few have never been abroad, and they are going to see the country. Strange to say, many advance the argument that it is cheaper to spend the summer in Europe than to remain at home, or put in the time at some watering place where fancy prices are charged. Heads of families with an eve to business state that they start ont with empty trunks and the clothes on their backs. The fare is not high, and the cost of living in the Old "World is very cheap, if one knows how to manage it. As soon as the family arrives in London or Paris, the wardrobes of the members are replenished. It is claimed by some that they save enough in buying their clothes to almost pay the ez- j penses ot tne -trip, us course tney nave been preparing for the journey a year or' more by nof buying anything, except what was absolutely needed. On the other hand, European sharks like nothing better than a sleek and well-fed American to pluck. Those who make it a business of going abroad advise greenhorns that thev have mnch to learn about foreign methods, and they may be Eeeced the first time, hut if thev persevere, their Yankee shrewdness will soon outwit the Continental vultures. ADVANTAGES OF AMEB1CA. Wages Not Altogether Affected by Either Tnrifl or Free Trade. Ii J). Humphrey, a Boston wool buyer, is registered at the Monongahela House. "The question is," he said yesterday, re ferring to the tariff, "what would our men receive if they had to compete directly with the pauper labor of Europe? Many of our laborers have emigrated from the Old World, and they settled here, because they could better their condition." They never would have come unless America offered ad vantages to them, and I notice that not more than one in ten thousand ever returns. The intelligent men know that the tariff has nothing to do with these wage discussions. The tariff can't check the greed and grasp ing disposition of capital or labor, and the only way to get along is for both sides to come together in a spirit of fairness. Whether the policy of the country is tariff or free trade, there will always be trouble over signing scales. If Cleveland is .nomi nated he will be badly beaten." LATE NEWS IN BRIEF.

BK. IVt T 11 10 a t 8 ... 13 50 ... 13 60 E 1i PIPE LINE COMBINE. Independent Oil Transporters Con template Joining Issues. NO SEABOARD LINE TO BE BUILT. Production of McDonald Pell Off 500 Barrels ' Yesterday. A W. TA. WILDCAT MAT YET PROVE GOOD Still another Bcheme ias been sprung on the pipe line, world. It seems on the sur face more plausible and feasible than any that lias been broached thus far. It is simply a consolidation of all of the independent pipe lines in the oil regions. For some time past reckless cotemporaries have been publishing reports of pipe lines which were to be built by syndicates from nearly every country except possibly China. English syndicates, French syndicates, German syndicates, indeed, syndicates from nearly every European country were reported at various times to be pre paring to pounce down npon Pittsburg and its surrounding oil territory, and carry it away bodily. None of these syndicates has yet materialized. The construction of the Independent lines was started some time ago. They do not contemplate a line to the seaboard but only Intend to connect their lines and bring them under one general system. This can be easily done by forming a stock company and eaoh independent owner will receive so much stock in the company for his prop erty. The Producers' Pipe Line Company, the bnsiness end of the P. P. A., has a line from the McDonald field to Coraopolis. It does not seem able to handle, or rather dispose, of its oil after getting it to Coraopolis. A Great Drawback to the P. P. A. This is the one great drawback with this line. The managers are now after an outlet, and they hope to get it by co-operating with the other pipe lines and refineries which are not Identified with the Standard. To form this combination they will pronably Build a line to connect the Producer's line with those In the upper fields. They do not contemplate, however, a line to the seaboard. It would be almost impos sible for them to get to Bayonne. N. J., as a cotomporary published some time ago, as New Jersey has no pipe line laws, and the least opposition will block any attempt to run a line througb that State. Mellon's line, or rather the Crescent, in the southern part of tho State will carry all the crude oil .which the Independent pro ducers will want to transport to the sea board. To build a line from the southwest to the upper country and thence to the. seaboard would be suicidal, as the Standard discov ered several years ago. It had two lines from tne upper country to the coast, and was pumping oil from Pittsburg and vf ctn ity, to Colegrove fn McKean county, and thence to tidewater. This was too expen sive, and to reduce the cost, one of the lines was moved to the southern part of the State. Some of the independent lines In the up per country are the Elk Pipe Line Company; the Emery Pipe line, and the Charles Miller, while in the Southwest the Producers, and the Crescent will make an attempt to cover all of the territory possible. More Fonrth Sand OH. McDonald dropped off 500 barrels in Its estimated production yesterday, and conse quently was given as 23,000 barrels. The only change In the list of those making 20 barrels an hour or more was Greenlee & Forst's No. 1 on the Kirk farm. It was reported to have drooped from 25 to 20 barrels an hour. There were two new producers reported yesterday at Venice, five miles south of Mc Donald station.
