Office of The Dispatch. ),
Pittsbcbo, Fkiday, July 22. (
Baw Iron and Steel. Business dur
ing the week has been restricted to limited
amounts, canted, no doubt, by the labor
troubles. The situation is certainly a very
unsatisfactory as well as a costly one, and
how long this condition of affairs is to con
tinue is a question that no one can an
swer. Trade at present is a barren subject; bar
ren because it is for the present practically
divested of the features which alone invest
it with absorbing interest It is not dead,
but it is resting, and there is but little in
its present condition that demands indus
trious consideration. Demand has no spur,
and the prices that rale are midsummer
prices, and these, so far as the future is con
cerned, mean nothine.
The business for the past sir months, so
far as it relates to the management of in
dustrial affairs, is bad enough, but the last
half year starts out with an occurrence
which. In irrational proceedings, injurious
consequences horrible tragic features and
uncivilized lnothods, so far belittles any
happening lecorded in tlio annals of the
past tnat tbo gravest ot them shrink into in
significance. The shutting down of so many mills at va
rious points has curtailed consumption of
piS Iron very materially; still the supply
continues largely lit excess of the donimid.
The late reduction in prices in the East
produco'l no effect iu this market. With
Rcsscmer at $H and gray Toi-ge at $12 76,
holders of standard brands rofusenll offers
olio or prices. Competition runs quite as
sharp as at any previous time this season,
and brands that do not command the es
teem of co.isnmers, which may ho offered
with any pressure, have to be let go at rates
attractive to fie buyer.
PittsburR-mado iionand steol commands
the best prices that rule the market, the
fact being well known by consumers that
the material purchased will at all times
sjand the expected test; consequently
buyers rim no lisk. The stock of iron in the
hands of makers in this di-trict is not large,
still the amount is sufficient for all neces
sary purposes. The demand lor bomc time
was confined to the bettor grade.
The market contain two sets of pur
chasers of pig iron, the first buying lor con
sumption, the second purchasing on specu
lation on account of the low prices ruling in
the market at present. Parties w ell versed
In the value of iron contend that money is
perfectly sale that is invested In billets,
gray forge and Bessemer at present rates;
tnat as soon as the present labor dfflculties
are adjusted prices will take an upward
turn.
Important Sfm From tho Valley.
The iituation Js as quiet as it can bo under
the circumstances. Only one sheet mill il in
operation, employing about 25 hands. The
other mills are busy making annual repairs,
taking stock and putting in improved and
labor-saving dc ices. In tho Mahoning Val
ley consolidation of tho iron manufacturing
industries is still under consideration, o.-io
important move iu that direction having
already been consummated. The steel plant
project is so Tar under way that the location
is being considotcd.
Railway officials will meet this week with
the incorporators to agree mon terminals
and local rreight matters. Work will be
commenced on the woiks Inside of SO days.
One concern is putting down three addi
tional sheet mills and several tin plate mills
are also under consideration. All tho fur
Maccs arc in blast except Hubbard No. 2,
Mary and Strntbcrs. Uauuah will shortly
blow out for repairs.
In the Shoango Valley tho Clair, Spear
roan No. 2. Ktna and Sharon and Neshan-
nock are blowing: ever thing elte is at rest.
The new steel plant of tho Shenaugo Steel
Company will commence operations October
1, as will also tbo new tinplato mill at New
Castle.
A soon as the iron workers' scale of wages
and tho repairs are completed the valleys
will be very actlvu in the mill trade, as
manufactured stocks are very low and
prices have been advanced from $1 to $2 per
toa.
Tlio Production ot Tig Iron.
Tho total production in tho first half of
1SW was i, 799.'3S gross tons, against 4,911,763
tons Sn the second Lalf or 1S91, a decrease of
312,707 tons. Adding tho pioduction of the
two half years we have the extraordinary
production of 9 710,819 gross tons in 12
month, which, is 003,116 tons in excess of 1Si0.
Notwithstanding the non-settlement of the
scale question, we can report a fair amount
or business, steel billots ale firm with a
pood trado demand. Prices tend upward.
Jlessemer is steady, last week's prices being
well maintained. Gray lorge is not very
active, bnt prices show no decline. Muck
bar is dull and neglected. Scrap material is
dull. Old iron and steel rails ai e Srnier.

PICKIHQ UP AT CIHCIHHATX
A Number of Largo Contract Closed and
Som- Others Pending.
Cixcuhtati, July 22. flprefa!. Boners,
Brown & Co. say: Not much business was
expected during the past week; but a num
ber of large contracts have been closed and
several others are pending. The aggregate
tonnage has been satis factory, but the prices
obtained were not up to former quotation.
Sales of mill, mottled and soft grades were
made, for which furnaces cannot realize the
cost of production. The question now Is
how long will the furnaces pursue their
present policy! Stocks have decreased, but
still sellers are found at constantly lessen
ing prices.
'1 he Pittsburg lockout has no appreciable
effect on the mills in this section, unless in
the way of an increased inquiry for bar iron.
There is a limited call for muck bartrom
mills whose puddling capacity i not equal
to their abilltv to manntacture the finished
product. Prices low in sympathy with pig.
Car works are crowded with orders and
thoir prospects are good for running mil
during the lemaindor of the year. Charcoal
irons remain unchanged with a fair demand.
Talr'y Actlvo at St. Loots.
St. Louis, July 22. Speet'ai Rogers,
Brown & Slerwin say: The market is fairly
active. Inquiries aro numerous, bnt some
special low prices, made in exceptional
cases, seem to have had a depressing effect
on prices in general. There seems to be
more of a disposition on part of the buyer to
contract now at current prices for require
ments the balance of the year. Furnaces
are still holding for short deliveries. The
car works, stovo foundries and agricultural
concerns are extremely buy, and, in fact,
only the jobbing foundries are short ot
woik.
Xo Chango at Birmingham.
SmxnranAM, An., July 2?.-flpecal-There
is no change in the iron market which con
tinues unquotable in figures. It is sold at
what it will bring, the prime consideration
being to keep down stocks which show a
constant tendency to increase. Lust week
the Tennessee Coal and Iron Company sold
17,000 ions In one block, though the price-is
unknown. A few furnaces are out for
repair0, but otherwise production continues
unchecked by the market conditions.
Steel la Scare at Philadelphia.
. Philadelphia. July 22. 5jcia7. Eogers,
Brown & Co. say: Inquiries for foundry
irons have been more numerous than usual
this week, and orders lor small lots have
come in very froely. Owing to tho uncer
tainty of the labor question, very little has
been done in mill grades, steel is in great
demand and none to be bad for snot de
livery.

SUPPORT WITHDRAWN
THE
AXD THE MARKET SKTIXKS BACK
INTO THE BUT OF DULLNESS.
B. & Q "Withdraws From the Western
Traffic Association, TV hloh Helps Check
the Cpwnrd Movement Vanderbllts the
Strong Points.
Sew York, July 22. The stock mar
ket to-day was less animated and prices
moved within narrower limits throughout
the dav. except in a few specialties which
were subjected to stimulus from the inside,
and the business done dwindled steadily,
gradually petting back to the dullness
which has been so oppressive during the
last two months. The power which stimu
lated the advance was entirely
withdrawn to-day, and this, coupled
with the actual notice of withdrawal of
the Burlington and Quincyfrom the West
ern Traffic Association, gave the upward
movement a blow from which it could not
rccovct. The sales of the day were princi
pally by the traders, who, having taken the
long side for a quick turn, were not long in
getting out when the support was with
drawn from the market, lhere was no dis
position shown to again short the market,
however, and tlio dullness also biought with
it the stagnation in prices which accom
panied it belore. Burlington was inclined
to weakness, but it declined only a small
fraction, and that was afterward partially
recovered, while in the Vande.-bllts positive
strength was seen. The market finally
closed dull and steady at irregular, but
slight, cuangos for the day.
Kallroad bonds were very quiet and par
took largely of the character of the stock
list, settling down to dullness and stagna
tion in the afternoon. There was no special
animation in any of the usually active issues,
and while a few or tho inactive bonds scored
marked gains tho rest were held Bteady.
Government bonds were dull and firm.

PROVISIONS HIGHER,
Bat Corn and Wheat Weaken a "Little
Omtu Blow and Unchanged.
Chicago, Jul: 12. The hot weather had a
depressing effeot on the crowd on the board
to-day, and they consequently did very lit
tle business. Prices underwent very little
change, but what alteration there was on
grain was against prloes, whsat closing from
Ko to o lower and corn at a decline of c
Provisions maintained their recent bullish
tone and ended at an improvement or 10c in
In pork and ribs andSo In lard.
The opening in wheat was weak at a loss
of HH September starting at 787oo,
hut during the succeeding; two hours the
tendency wa upward and September ad
vanced to 78kT8Jo. At this point rumors
of heavy offerings of new wheat began to
be circulated upon the floor and a reaction
ary movement set in which carried Sep
tember about noon back to 78c. The reoelpts
here were in excess of the estimate, being
211 cars. The northwest report 877 cars
there. The clearance of wheat and flour
from the principal Atlantic port was re
ported as eqnal to 885,000 bushels. Cables
were low at the close. Liverpool wasd

Street Eailway Bonds Most Prominent In
the Lxchange Yesterday.
GOSSIP, BALES iND FINAL QUOTATIONS
Fkiday, July 22.
Trading at the first call of the local stock
and bond list to-day was fair, giving promise
of a comparatively aotire day, despite the
torridlty of the weather, but the promise
was not fulfilled, as the subsequent calls
were very quiet and featureless affairs.
The business of the day covered 'Wheeling
Gas, Philadelphia Company, Pittsburg and
rirminghom Traction 5s, Pleasant Valley
consolidated fis, Duquesne Traction 5s,
"Westinghouse Electric scrip and "Westing
house Airbrake "Wheeling Gas sold down
to 18 closing at 18X asked; Philadelphia
Company sold at 19 and closing at 18?19:
Pittsburg and Birmingham 5s sold at 101,
Pleasant Valley 5s at 101 and interest, Du
quesne 5s at 10( Airbrake at 125 and
Westinghouse Electric scrip at 87. The
feeling generally was strong, but changes
were few and without significance. Air
brake closed nominally at 123125, with 125
bid for a small lot. Luster fluctuated sdme
what without sales, closing at 1114; U. S.
Glass common recovered to 64J bid; the
street railway shares were steady to strong,
the new electrlo stocks were In demand,
Bridgowater Gas was quoted at 25 bid, Pipe
age was steady, and Pleasant Valley Rail
way closed a little higher at 2526. Every
thing else was unchanged ana mote or less
neglected.
'there was an excellent demand for Phila
delphia Company, Central Traction and a
few other leading items, but all orders
seemed to be limited to prices that
holders did not care to accept. Talking
on this point and the reports of dull
ness with a prominent broker he displayed
an order hook well Ailed with buying and
selling orders in various stocks and bonds.
saying lie could not execute the buying
orders owing to the firmness of holders, nor
the selling orders because he was limited
to prices a little above the market. Another
exhibited a bundle of Junction Railroad
6s and said there was considerable doing in
Junction stocks and bonds and kindred
securities. The demand for street railway
bonds outsido the Exchange was also quite
marked, and inquiry for school bonds was
noted from investors of small means. Tho
demand for bonds, together with a little
fresh nosing around for stocks in a small
way, indicated a revival of interest on the
part of the public, and predictions of an
early season of comparative activity were
niado hy various close observers.
The story about the Central Passenger
Railway Company's intention to construct
an electrle line to East Liberty and eventu
ally to Wilklnsburg, to be operated by the
Central Traction Company, which was
printed in The Dispatch this morning, at
tracted considerable disoussionnn the street
to-day, the majority believing the scheme to
be inspired by the Plttsbnrg-Duquesne com
bine and only another step in the direction
of consolidating all the street railway lines
of the two cities under one management.
A director of the Central Passenger Railway
Company said to-day that the company had
resolved to do just wbat was outlined in
The Dispatch, and that work wonld be com
menced as soon as tho necessary ordinances
were secured.
More EIctrlo Combine Talk.
The Boston papers are again talking about
tho Electrlo Combine absorbing outside
companies. A recent issue of the Globe con
tains the following: "There are no indica
tions of any immediate oombining of the Gen
eral Electrlo and Westinghouse companies,
all reports to the contrary notwithstanding.
The Westinghouse Company is evidently
doing a large business, and has placed .largo
contracts, but at prices which competitive
companies figure must show a considerable
loss. This gross business, however, is mak
ing the Westinghouse people very indepen
dent, and nrobablr removes the chances of
combination farther away than ever. The
report that the Fort Wayne is to be taken in
by the General Electrlo Company is denied.
It has been thought that the company would
be absorbed on the basis of a 4 per cent guar
antee, the same as it pays to-day, but this is
not likely until relations between the Gen
eral Electrlo and the Westinghouse com
panies are closer than is the case now."
The Herald says: "The bond circnlar of
Messrs. Lee,Higgin on & Co. says that of the
$40,000,000 General Electric Company stock
$30,067,200 is issued. Of $10,000,000 preferred
$4,lo6,300 is issued, and ot $10,000,000 bonds
$4,000,000 is issued. The expected denial
that this company will ausoib the Westing
bouse Company is on time. But in the same
breath it is stated that the General Electrlo
Company will not guarantee 4 per cent on
Fort Wayne stock until the relations be
tween the General Electric and Westing
house Companies are closer than is the case
now.' This can be variously understood,
but presumably means that Fort Wayne will
be used as a club to compel the Westing
house Company to surrender, or, at least, to
abandon its sharp competition. There may
be no immediate prospect of consolidation,
but the chances 01 consolidation in due time
are considered better than ever."
Soma of Sir. Keene's Bull Talk.
Mr. Keene, the great Wall street leader,
has been talking iu an optimistic strain
lately, and his views have been scattered
broadcast. Following is a part of his latest
utterance: 'I think the outlook for railway
tonnage Is very encouraging. Our crops are
as good as they have been in any year in
the past ten if wo except last year, when
they were abnormal. The wheat and oats
crops are both fall and of good grading
quality. The corn crop, upon which great
stresses laid bypersons who hold pessimistic
views, will, I think, with reasonably favora
ble weather, make a yield of not less than
1.600.000.000 of bushels. The excess of old
corn in the country over that which is
usually held by the farmers from one crop
to tho other is not less, according to the best
information obtainable by me, than 250,
000,000 of bushels. The hay crop is the
largest ever harvested in the United States.
The excessive rainfall has given to the
lariners such abundant pasturage that the
saving in grain nsnallv fed to stock in
ordinary seasons will go far toward com
pensating for any deficiency in this year's
corn yield. Ahead of tho railroads there is
aUo the great passenger and general traffic
which the World's Fair will stimulate, the
net results of which will be large but diffi
cult now to estimate."

POINTS ON REALTY.
Several Good-Sli-d Sales Concluded, In
volving East End and Allegheny Prop
erties Investors Still Beaching Ont Into
the Connty Building and Otber Xotes.
Sir. J. C. Dick is stirring things up all
along the real estate line. He returned
home from Atlantic City this morning, and
gettingdown to work at once, closed several
important deals during the day. One of
these Involves two properties, 459 and 4G1,
corner Fifth avenue and Vine street, which
he bonght at figures close to $20,000. He pro
poses to thoroughly remodel, if not rebnild,
the existing structures. In either event
they will be made equal in convenltnce and
appearance to the best business houses In
that part of the city.
The same gentleman has, within a week
or two, put tbe finishing touches to several
otber transactions. He bought 80x84 feet of
ground on Hatfield street, Lawrencerille,
with three brick houses, for $8,500. He also
acquired two properties on liesnca street,
near tbe park. Allegheny, for $10,000. He sold
90 feet on Boquet street and 175 on Wilmot,
the former at $90 and tho latter at $40 a loot
front. Another sale by the same indefati
gable operator was that of a blook of 4o lots
in his Hazelwood plan. Houses will be
erected on the majority of these lots at
once.
Sales of county property show no diminu
tion. Tbe expansion of the oity is pushing
the suburbs farther out, and rapid transit is
making outlying districts available for
homes which a few years ago were used
only for agricultural purposes. Among re
cent sales disclosed by the court records are
the following: C F. McKenna to A. J
Schulte, three-acres and a fraction with Im
provements in Upper St. Clair township, for
$13,200; Ferdinand Kitchen to Levi Bfoher,
two acres, Improved, in Lincoln township,
for $2,500; George Kramer to Robert XIII. 48x
110 feet, with a good honse, in Braddock
township, for. $2,300. It is said an offer of
almost $20,000 has been made for the farm
formerly owned by W. H. Devore, in Ster
rett township, back or Wilklnsburg.
Five permits nearly all good ones were
issued to-day for 16 buildings and altera
tions, the estimated cost aggregating $25,000.
Those of most Importance are: Booth ft,
Fltnn, 12 frame buildings on Addison street,

The Knoxville Land Improvement Com
pany is dickering for acreage adjoining that
borongh. Growth is so rapid that a fresh
snpply of building lots has become neces
sary. Xew business centers are springing up on
noarly all tbe thoroughfares leading to the
East End. High rents are driving small
traders out of the downtown quarter.

Itaw Sugar Higher and Kefined Firmer
In the East Canned Good Dooming.
Fbiday, July 22.
Trade in commercial circles was com
paratively quiet to-day, quite an unusual
thing for Friday, as operations on that day
are, as a rnle, heavier than on any other day
of the week on account of the preparations
of city and nearby retailers to meet the in
creased demand ot Saturday. No one com
plained of positive dullness, however, ex
cepting the grain and feed commission men,
who continued to report a languishing mar
ket. Prices of staples were without material
change and the markets generally were
ieatureless.

Eaw sugars were reported higher in the
East to-day and refined firmer. The sugar
market is vory actlvo and will continue to
be animated nntll the canning and preserv
ing season Is over. Coffee Is steady, rice
firm and molasses and syrups dull and nom
inal. There are very few fish or any kind on
tbe market and dealers are not quoting. A
few mackerel, 2s and 3s, are offering, bnt
there is no demand. Canned gdods continue
active aud buoyant. The'latest intelligence
from primary points is as follows:

lots were relnsed, and $2 upward is asked.
One Maine factory has thus far packed
about 600 cases late run sardines, and,
quality being attractive, the goods fonnd
sale at $3 65 In Xew York.
Owing to the high prices asked for Cali
fornia prunes, buyers in several quarters
are inquiring about French prune prospects
with more than ordinary anxiety.
Some lew smnll parcels of gallon canned
pie peaches, Eastern and Calllornia goods,
have been picked up at $3 0003 10 from
second hands, but- anything under $3 25 is
strictly exceptional.
About five carloads of 1891 crop California
