IflHfllBiHiHflHiflBiiilili. THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH. FRIDAY. JULY 22, 1892. x 33t MR. KEENE BULLISH. He So Declares Himself and the Traders Hurry to Get In. SUGAR LEADS IN STRENGTH And the Janderbilts Continue to Show btubbora Support. SOME OF ME BEARS KOT YET COWED New Tobk, July 21. The stock market to-day once more wore an appearance of activity, especially during the forenoon, when the remains of yesterday's spnrt were worked ofi. Operations in the stock market for the past two days have been in no way chanced in their character from those of the previous few week, but have been wholly of a professional nature and confined for the most part to the four walls of the Stock Exchange. The move ment was entirely the result of the open declaration of his bullish bias by Mr. Keene, the whole room contingent hurrying to get on the winning side as indi cated by his utterances. The short interest in many of the leading shares, especially the Grangers, was large reduced by the late operations, but the demand in the loan crowd for all of them shows that the market is still somewhat oversold; that some of the bears have the courage of their opin ions, and that any advance in the market is going to meet with strennous opposition. In the movements to-day the .same stocks that were so prominent yesterday led the way, Sugar being first in point of activity, while the .advances in Burlington and Northwestern were equally as large, the last named stock being helped by the statement of earnings. The upward movement was brought to a halt by the announcement of the withdrawal of the Burlington from the "Western Traffic Association, and the early improvement iu the stock as afterward wholly lost, and a material concession from the best figures was established in the rest of the market. The strength of the new bull ish feeling, however, sustained the mar&et and no break was seen in any portion of tne list, the most serious eflect of the unfavor able news being the restriction of business to its former limited proportions. An offset to the general decline in the late trad ing, however, was the strength of the Van derbilts. The market closed rather heavy and quiet The trannactlons of the dav were again nearly doubled, and 209,985 shares of listed stocks changed hands and 48,226 unlisted. Bailroad bonds also showed the influence of the new demand, and on a business of $1,529,000 prices were lifted slightly all along the line, while the important gains were verv few. The notable advances in clude Hfinois Central 4s of 1952, 2 to 109 1, and Minneapolis and St. Lonis seconds 2 to 82. Government bonds were dull and firm. Close of the list: TT. S. 4s, reg.

Chicago, July SI The only feature of special Interest in tbe trading on the board to-day n as a flurry in wheat shortly after the opening, when the shorts became fright ened at the strength of that cereal and rushed to cover. The wheat market started quiet at a slight decline with September at TSia. For 13 minutes thereafter a lively business was done accompanying a quick spurt to 79c, with perhaps a few sales as high as 79,c The hot weather prevailing throughout the scring wheat belt was the most potent factor In bringing about tbe stampede. Over a very largo section spring wheat ls-nowlnthe milk;, and it was feared that the hot temper ature reported yesterday, ranging np to 104, might seriously damage the plant. The early cables were firm in tone. Tbe re ceipts here wore short of the estimates, be ing 185 cars, and tbe Northwest reported only 333 cars as arriving there. The London clrxing cable was 6d higher and Liverpool WX1 higher, but aavloes from the conti nent were less satisfactory. Paris was from 101S centimes lower for floor and 10020 lower for wheat, and Berlin was i marks lower. 'New York and St. Lonls speculators, too, bad been crowding the wires with sell in; orders since the time of the early bulge, and those told upon tbe market toward the close. After working graduallv down from around 797SJi79o, the price'broke about 15 minutes irom the close to 790, where it rested. Corn was quiet, but rather firm, largely in sympathy with the strength in wheat, but independent of that there exists among the crowd a feeling that present prices by no means overdiseount prevailing conditions of diminished acreage and condition of the growing crop. Beceipts tn-day, 300 cars. Oats made a gain of QMc, ruling firm in sympathy with the other cereals. Kecelpts, 191 cars. The provision market stood the test of free selling by the longs without breaking to any zreat extent.

CENTRAL TRACTION IS HIGHER, Luster Mores Upward and Philadelphia Company Gains a Fraction. GOSSIP, SALES AND FINAL PRICES Thtjbsdat, Jnly 21. Trading in local securities continues light, both on and off 'Change, but there ii enough doing from dy to day to keep tne market from tbe rut of absolute stagnation. Prices are holding up fairly well, too, with an ad vancing tendency noticeable here and there, and there is plenty of evidence that any change will be for the better. Two or three of the brokers noted an improved in quiry to-day, and in a general way best opinion was to the effect that the worst was behind us, with an improvement in the near future probable. Trading on 'Change to-day was confined to Central Traction, Citizens' Traotion, Westinghouse Electrio preferred and Phila delphia Company. Central Traction sold at 2929$:, closing at 29 asked; Citi zens' Traction sold at 62, closing at 61 62; Westinghouse Eleotrlc preferred sold at 45, closing at 45X45, and Phila delDhla Company Bold at 19, bnver 4 days, with a close regular at 1819. In the remainder of the list there were few features beyond an advance In Luster Mining Company. One of tbe broketswho Is identified with the Luster crowd said a letter had lately been received from Mexico containing news of encourag ing developments at tbe mines, but, as usual, nothing definite could be learned. Union Switch and Signal was steady to Arm at 164loc, and other quotations were about the same as those of yester day. Bids and offers in the bank and In surance shares were more numerous than usual, with something more of disposition to sell than to buy, which was particularly noticeaoie witn respect to tne oanKBnares. On this point a specialist in bank stocks said: "There seems to be a good many bank stocks for sale, but the trouble is those that are wanted are not being offered, and those that are offered are offered at prices consid erably above the views of investors." No bid was made for Airbrake. There was a little offering "on the quiet" at 125, but it was not pressed for sale. A gentleman iden tified with the company said that new busi ness bad been coming in slowly for some weeks past, out tnat orders were now De ginning to come in again and that a good peiccntage of the surplus pi oductlon would soon be worked off. The machine shop has been running on three-fourths time, but the foundry and other departments have been running pretty well up to their capacity. The most pronounced movement was in Central Traction, whioh sold as nigh as 29 as noted above, against a close yesterday at 28 bid. There was an excellent inquiry for the stock, but whether or not It bad any connection with the various stories afloat about extension, absorption, a new line.etc, was not Intimated. It is certainly wortb what has been paid in $30 per share and if the recent statements as to its earnings are correct it is worth considerably more. Pleasant Vallev Bail way. P., A. & M. Trac tion and P. & B. Traction were all but com pletely neglected, the uncertainties sur rounding the much-talked-ot deal between the two former and the failure of the di rectors of the latter to take action on the dividend matter being quoted as responsi ble for the neglect. The sale of Westinghouse Electric pre ferred was the fourth made on tbe floor since tbe stock was placed on the market and the first for several weeks. Trading in it in Boston of late, however, has been quite active. I Industrial Stocks. The time was not very long ago when In dustrial stocks were looked upon with gen eral disfavor In this country, says the Wall street JVeuw. The idea of capitalizing large industrial enterprises and offering the stock to the public for Investment was very gen erally regarded as a foreign lmportation.and one with which the American people cared .to have nothing to-do. -The experience of corporations of this "kind in Europe, and es pecially in England, has been so very satis factory, however, that American capitalists who gave the subject close attention becamo fully convinced that the oppo sition here to industrial corporations was due almost entirely to ignorance as to their real merit, and that all that was neces sary was to educate the people by a few practical illustrations. The Standard Oil Company was the pioneer enterprise of this kind, but its stock was very closely held and It was not until Cotton Oil, the Sugar Trust and one or two others were brought out, that the puDllc really began to take general interest in stooks of this class. One of the particularly favorable features connected with the Industrial stocks, is that the prop erties represented, the accounts and every thing connected theiewlth, undergo a searching Investigation by able experts be fore the stocks are placed on the market. The handsome dividends whioh the com panies have bo far been able to pay make them also very attractive to people who have money to invest. More Securities Listed. The following securities have been listed on the New York Stock Exchange: Pitts burg and Western Bail way Company $5,000, 000 preferred stock and $7,000,000 common stock, which are regular company's certifi cates simply substituted for the voting trust certificates, the voting trnst having expired July 15. General Electric Company $4,000,000 5 per cent gold debenture bonds of 1922. The authorized is ue or these bonds is $10,000,000, of which but $4,000,000 will be issued at pres ent, and this amount has been fully sub scribed. They are convertible into full-paid common stock on the basis of $120 of bonds for $100 of stock. A million and a half of the proceeds of these bonds has been used toward extinguishing the floating debt, and it is intended to use the balance for the same purpose, either directly or by the pur chase from the companies of the s'tocks and bonds or other securities held by them. Tne P. B. It. In Line. According to the Philadelphia Inquirer, the Pennsylvania Bailroad will shortly an nounce an advance oi abont 25 cents a ton on tidewater shipments. The new rate will go into effect on August 1, and the required ten days' notice will be sent to the Inter state Commission to-day. In April Mr. Joyce fixed the rate from tbe mines to tidowater at $1 44, being 40 per cent of the estimated selling price at tidewater, which was be lieved to be $3 50. The new rate will be between $1 65 and $1 70. There are a large number of individual shippers on the Penn sylvania Railroad's lines; in fact the bulk of tne tonnage is furnished by independent operators. The important point in the transaction is that it explodes the silly rumors that tbe Pennsylvania wants to fight the anthracite coal trade. The com pany is as anxious to make money as any other, and will not throw away a quarter of a dollar a ton on a business aggregating neaiiy o,uoo,uuu ions a year wnen were is no occasion for doing so. Financial Notes. The South Chicago Eleotrlo Hallway Com pany has contracted with the Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company for 50 20 horse-power motors. Tbe earnings of the Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburg Bailroad for the seco-id week or July were $64,116, against $50,205 for the same week last year, an increase of $13,910.

After the last call Morris & Brown bought 30 snares Westinghouse Electric preferred at 45. Pittsburg and Mexican Tin continues to be quoted at 2540. The demand for all the leading Westing house shares is gradually growing. Checks for the usual dividend of 1 per cent are being received by the stockholders of the Hazelwood Oil Company. An iron trade straw is found In a private dispatch from Chicago saying that tbe roads terminating in that city are in the market for steel mils to the extent of 50,000 tons. Philadelphia has a report that an extra dividend on Lehigh Valley will probably be deolared out of this year's business, which was said to be turning out muoh better than bad been anticipated. One of the reports in connection with the Boston trading in the electric shares, says the Journal cf Finance, is that the Dig combi nation Is now about ready to take in the Ft. Wayne Company on a I per cent basis. While this is not officially confirmed it finds a good many believers. The directors of tbe American Soda Foun tain Company have declared the regular semi-annual dividends of S per cent on the first preterred stock and i per cent on the second preferred stock, payable August 4, to stockholders of record July 25. Westinghouse Electrio scrip Is offered at 80 The adrano In Sugar la aeeompanied Try reports that the dividend will be increased to 2X per cent quarterly. The net June earnings of the B. & O. sys tem decreased $28,824. In their market letter to-day to J. M. Oak ley ft Co., Watson ft Gibson say: "An item that will interest the railroad corporations and later on tjielr stockholders Is the bill reported favorably on by the Inter-State Commerce Committee compelling railtoads to equip their cars and locomotives with automatic couplers. This is likely to be fol lowed by air brakes for freight cars, and while the cost to the railroads will be an Item the saving of human life is of more im portance." Sales and Final Prices.

Dealers inmost commercial lines report ed trade to-day as being all that could be expeoted considering the time of year and the dtpressin; condition of affairs in dustrially, but they could offer no new sug gestions as to present and prospective prices. "Wholesale grocers, however, con tinued to discuss the outlook tor canned goods in a rather bullish strain, their ad vices from primary points being of a more bullish character than ever. Eastern re ports say that California fruit and vegeta ble growers have evidently gone crazy over the advance In prices, and are putting their stocks up to a range which practically re stricts business. The latest news from the East on the situation follows: The advance in prices of canned peaches in tbe Baltimore market between July 9 and July 16 was 50 c on gallons, 1015o on 3-lb standards and seconds and 25c on 3-lb extras. -Some good-sized contracts for new-paok standard California canned frnit have been cloed here the past tew days at an advance or 15c on apricots and So on othergoods over opening prices. . Philadelphia agents, according to current report, have closed out nearly their entire spot stock of Jersey and Delaware canned tomatoes. Thoie have been bids the past few days of 4c for two-crown quality California saoked raisins: similar goods were sold at 3Jc about a week ago. Gallon canned peaches, apricots and pears, table fruit, have been advanced abont 75o per dozen in San Francisco since the open ing of the season. Standard Eastern canned peaches, 1891 pack, in 3-lb tins, are now very firm at $1 80 1 90, and for seconds $1 601 63 is named as being a olose quotation. Several holders are now modestly asking $2 0 per dozen for standard gallon canned apples. Groceries.

LITTLE NEW BUSINESS. What There Is Doing In Iron and Steel Is Confined to Shirting Orders New Tons, July 2L .Special. The Jron Age will to-morrow say: What new busi ness there Is In finished iron and steel is con fined to the shifting of orders from idle mills to works in operation and to dealers who happen to carry stock. There has been some canceling of orders and some replac ing of contracts, the latter occasionally at s. notable advance. Only a very moderate ad vance has been made to regular customers, amounting to $1 and $3 pe rton. This applies to the whole line of structural material, bars and plates. The Joliet mill has signed the scale. In Eastern Pennsylvania billets are quoted at $25 2525 50, with little business going. We note a sale of 3,000 tons of blooms by an Eastern rail mill. In merohant steel Chicago reports fnrthor large season contracts. Steel rails con tinue very -quiet, the only transaction of magnitude being a sale of 10,000 tons by an by an Eastern mill to a Western road, which is chiefly interesting as indicating the harmony between the mills. From London by cable to-day, the foreign markets are thns reviewed: Prices for pig Iron warrants have remained almost sta tionary, at llslls Id for Scotch, 40s40s 3d for Cleveland, aud 49 Cd for hematite. Oper ations have been moderate and traders hold aloof, although consumptive demand for some kinds of iron is rather better. Stocks In public stores show a further slight de crease, being at present about 419,000 tons Scotch and 31,000 tons Cleveland. The pig tin market improved during the week, after small holders had liquidated and responded to better advices from America, but buyers have latteily become scarce and prices again receded. Straits shipments during the past fortnight reported as being 1,223 tons and spot stock 1,697 tons, the bnlk of which Is in strong bands. The tin plate market is without encouraging feature. Steel ship plates are somewhat firmer. Makers now generally quoting 6 2s 6d f. o. b. New Tork MU1 Market. New Tore, Jnly 21. Pig iron dull: Ameri can, 313 6015 00. Coppersteady: lake, $11 50 61160.
