A WEAK CLOSE AT THE LOWEST PRICES
JfE'W Yobs, Ang. 31. Dullness contin
ues to be the principal characteristic of the
market, except in a iew stocks affected by
particular influences. The undertone of
the market remains strong, however, and
despite the occasional short sales for quick
turns the existing short interest remains so
large that a supported influence is never
lacking. There was a renewal of the
manipulation of Sugar to-d8y and while the
rest of the industrials remained dull and
stagnant, it ro-e rapidly at times and dis
played great activity.
The market opened with a firm temper
and generally at higher figures than those
of last evening, but just after the beginning
of business it became known that Sir. Goelet
repudiated the use of his name in the direc
tory of New England and announced his re
fusal to serve in that capacity. A heavy
selling movement in New England, was im
mediately precipitated and a drop of X
per cent in "a jiitw uuicu luc uuic
market, including even Sugar with it Only
Beading, St. Paul, Burlington and Erie
showed any animation, however, and'the
losses in those shares were confined to small
fractions and the decline was sooo checked.
The rally followed close bringing most of
the list, including New England, up to
within a shade of the first figures. Bead
ing and St. Paul, however, displayed special
strength and rose above the level ot first
prices.
The trading was entirely professional and
while there was some liquidation in the
early dealings the bulk ot the selling was
still for short account and the bears were
very aggressive, working the cholera scare
for all it was worth. In the afternoon,
when it was announced that the disease was
actually in the harbor, there was a more
vigorous drive at the entire list,
which had the effect of bringing
out some long stock and still lower prices
were reached all along the line, even Sugar
finally giving way with the railroad list
The granger stocks displayed the most
weakness and Manhattan dropped about 3y
per cent, though the violence of the move
ment later caused a partial reaction. There
was a slleht rallv on covering of shorts in
the late dealings, but the market never lost
its weak tone and finally cosed weak at the
lowest figures as a rule on an active busi
ness. The bond list was affected by the drive at
stocks, and while, during the forenoon the
usnal dull and ai.atlietic market was seen,
there was a yielding later over the entire
market and many of the active issues were
driven down materially.
Government bonds were anil and steady.

WEAKNESSJN CHICAGO. "
EeporlB nr the ChoIcrK's Progress Cause
Grain and Provisions to Decline.
Chicago. .Aug. 31Tliere was weakness
and depression in ail the pits on the Hoard
ot Trade to-day and a sharp decline all along
the line. Everybody teemed disposed to
sell, but there was little Inclination to buy
nnd the result was decided weakness. The
chief cause of this condition of affairs was a
growing fear that cholera would gain a
foothold In lhis country with all sorts of
panic possibilities as tlio result. Holders or
September contrncts.in view of the fact that
to-morrow is delivery day with everv pros
pect ot heavy deliveries, woie particularly
concerned over the situation, not caring to
accept the actual grain on a. maiket which
stands leady to be stampeded, so they made
haste to sellout their September holdings
as--oon as trading lior,nn Aff.i-i,. .
liquidation was over there was a moderate
reaclon, but at no time was tbeie positive
strength. Pardridge was said to be the
heaviest short seller to-day, but he had a bur
lollowing. ' i "
Corn was depressed and lower from the
start, the failure 01 the expected frost to
materialize, the.liberal leceipts and the un
expectedly favorable character of tho Gov-
ernment weekly crop bulletin, with the gen
eral depression which held steady In all
speculative pits, all favoring lower prices.
Oats were weak In sympathy with the gen
eral depression, but were not demoralized,
as the crop conditions were such as to make
short selling more .hazardous.
Hog products were weak and at timci
seemed demoralized. Tbo offerings were
urgent with very little demand, while the
cholera scare and the depression In other
speculative articles were bearish agencies
together with heavy present and prospec
tive receipts of live hogs and lower prioes,

Cholera Keports Cause Weakness
East and West.
A FEW STRONG POINTS LOCALLY,
Bat the General Tone of the Market Is
Unsettled.
LOCAL AND GENERAL FINANCIAL NEWS
Wednesday, Aug. 3L
.The August transactions in local secur
ities on 'Change aggregated 15,631 shares of
stock and 596,000 bonds. As a rule Ex
change .transactions are about one-half the
total business, so that the volume of trading
for tlieVuonth must have been somewhere in
the neighborhood of Sl.'OOO shares
of stock and ?200,000 bonds.
Bonds, however, were unusually active off
'Change during the month, and it is doubt
ful, therefore, if $200,000 approximates the
actual total business. While the record is
not particularly startling, it largely ex
ceeds that of the corresponding
month of nrevions vears. and. as
'the volume of business and courso of prices
have brought fulfillment to the July predic
tions of The Dispatch, the record Is gratify
ing to some oneontside the brokerage fra
ternity, and this 1 eference to it is pardonable
to say the least.
Cholera Keports Caaiie Onenslnet.
The report that the cholera had arrived
off Now Yont via the steamship Moravia,
from Hamburg, caused considerable uneasi
ness on Fourth nvenuo this afternoon, and
tho weakness and depression In the East
ern markets caused by the announcement
of the ai rival of the terrible soourge
found something of a reflection here.
Brokers and others passed Jokes and light
remarks about it back and forth, but un
derneath tne careless tone an appieclation
of tho gravity ot the situation was plainly
observable. " In sober conversation the
opinion was general that it would not
take long for the unwelcome visitor to roach
Pittsburg once it got a foothold In the East,
and all sorts of business disasters and panic
possibilities were outlined as the result of
Its getting this country or any considerable
pottion of it in its grasp. There Is no wisdom
in borrowing trouble, however. The
cholera is not here yet. It
is not in New York yet, and the roports mav
be exaggerated. The rigid quarantine
measures that will be enforced, also, and
the intelligent and well-directed efforts rbe-'
ing made to keep it at a safe distance may
be successful. If it does come it will be
fought as it has.never been fought before,
but its presence will stagnate business and
depress prices. Then there will bo oppor
tunities ior tuose ot nerve ana means to
pick up bargain that will net big profits.
Coarse of tlio Mark-t.
Trading on 'Change to-day was on, about
the same scale as yesterday and the day be
fore, but the tone of the market was gen
erally weak. Declines, however, were few
and without significance, and some shares
were stronger. P. & B. traction. Pleas
ant Vnll oy, Central traction. Electric first
preferred, Philadelphia Company, Duquesne
traction nnd Citizens' National Bank figured
in tne business at the calls, with noticeable
activity only in Duquesne traction. The
stock was in good demand and was freely
taken at 29329J, closing at 23.9J Off
'C.'aimeit was active, a representative of
one of the brokerago houses reporting
knowledge of a transaction involving 600
shares at about 29. Altogether it was esti
mated that 1,600 shares changed hands
during the day. The stock may go
up, but the present time does not
appear to De a good one for even strong and
shrewd manipulation. Stocks would un
doubtedly be thrown overboard on a visita
tion of cholera, and no business would
sutfor more seriously than tho street railway
business. However, street railway slimes
are unquestionably a purchase for a long
pull.
Moro pressure was brought to bear against
Philadelphia Company to-day and It yielded
slightly. Opening at 23 bid and sales. It de
clined .to 22K sales and closed at 2222
looking steauy to stiong at the decline.
The other gassers were leatureless.
Pleasant Valley Hallway sold at25Vi25.
closing firm at 25i4.5. Central traction
was weaker at 2! sales, closintr at 29
nsked. P. & B. traction sold at 2626V. liu:
the close was a Httleun steady at 2SJ26J.
The other tractions were practically un
changed, though the inquiry for P., A. & M.
traction at 44 appeared- to be somewhat
better.
Among the Industrials Airbrake was
stronger at 135 bid, Underground Cable was
steady. Switch and Signal showed a droop
ing tendency and V. S. Glass common wns
offered at 69. There was no public bid on
Underground Cable, but It was stated that 79
was bid privately during tho day. It was
also stated that U. S. Glass could be pur
chased considerably below 69.
Outside of the active list the only feature
was a sale or Citizens' National Bank at 66.
Grand Rapid nnd Indiana.
Rumors were In circulation yesterday
(Monday), s-ij s the TfW Street AVtcj, to the
effect that the management of the Grand
Ripids and Indiana Railroad Company
had decidod to default upon the inter
est due September 1 on the general
mortgage 5 per cent bonds. This in
terest amounts to 2f per cent, and there
aie about $3,500,000 of the general
mortgage bonds outstanding. The Pennsyl
vania Railroad Company controls, but does
not lease the road. It guaiantees the inter
est on some of the prior Hens, but not upon
me general luungage 03. v lnsiow, .Lanier
& Co. "ay that no notification in regard to
the payment ot inteiest had been leceived
fiom the management of the company,
but that tbeie as still time. In some cir
cles it is believed that tbo Pennsylvania
Railroad Company contemplates playing. In
connection with the Grand Rapids and In
diana, the role enacted several years ago by
the Illinois Central with the bondholders of
the Dubuque and Sioux City Railroad Com
pany. The-o carping critics Insist that
aftor a little litigation the Pennsylvania will
turn up in absolute control of the Grand
Rapids Company. About $2,000,009 of these
bonds are held in Pittsburg.

One or the arguments against turther gold

of the heavier imparts ot provious months
the balance against us must still be consld'

BIG DEAL IN COAL LAND
Near the Closlne TJp Point Pittsburg Cap-'

"Wednesday, Aur. 31.
Negotiations far the sale of about 1,650
atres of coal land sitnate in Westmoreland
county, just a short distanoe irom the Alle
gheny county line, to a company of Pitts
burg capitalists are on, and from present
indications the deal will be closed shortly.
The size of the main vein underlying the
property is between 4 and 5 reet, and after
a test made by oxperts the coal was round
to be or the very btist quality. The
price to be paid Tor the tract is $75 930. or $1S
per aero. It is owned by 18 persons and it
covers that many iarms or various sizes,
whioh are all cultivated, being excellent
ground for farming purpoos. The deal is
being engineered by a prominent young
agent of this city who confines his attention
mostly to transactions in this llne.and has op
tions on several other tracts or coal land in
the same vicinity. It is very evi
dent from these facts that the
opening or a new district producing
a very fine grade or the black diamonds is a
matter or but a very short while and Judg
ing from the parties interested the business
will be operated on a very extensive scale.

AUGUST TRADE FAIR
In Most Lines of Gen-ral Merchandise and
tho Outlook for thn Autumn Ilrlrhl
Course of Prices Generally Favors Sellers
Current Gossip and Quotations.
"Wednesday, Aug. 3L
The month ending to-day has been a
fairly satisfactory one to wholesale dealers
in general merchandise, despite labor
troubles and other depressing factors,
though the movement in any one line has
not been marked by activity. With the
exception of breadstuff's the course of prices
of staples has favored sellers and the de
mand has been sufficient to prevent any un
due accumulation of stooks. The trado in
fluences are now getting into a more en
couraging condition, tho vacation season is
about over, and if the drcadod cholera will
only keep a respectful distunco until it dies
out, the autumn movement will undoubt
ed y bo an unusually good one.

are yet to be leporled, indicate a shortage
ot 2O9,C0O,00O busuels- from last year, which
may be considerably alteied by later re
turns. Bids of $3 60 were made on several lines of
gallon pl peaches, hut desirable goods at
less than $3 75 seem to be extremely ulfflcult
to secure; $3 40 was paid for New York State
goods of very indifferent quality.

Maine brands or gallon canned apples, last

and a very fine article of State goods went
at $2 60. Those prices would bo difficult to
duplicato Just now, except possibly on Job
lots.
The scarcity of desirable coffee appears to
