PAILKOAD BONDS GEKEEALLT FIRM
Xew York, Xov. 2L The stock market
Teas dull throughout. Speculation was weak
for the railway list from start to finish, al
though outside of Burlington and Quincy,
which declined )$, and Missouri Pacific,
nhich yielded 1. the net losses for the day
were less than 1 per cent Hot only Mis
souri Pacific but the other Gould stocks
were heavy, a fact which induced selling by
the traders for the short account.
The strength of the industrial group and
some of the specialties were in markcii con
trast to 'the weakness in some of the rail
roads. In the former National Cordage was
the special faTonte, selling tip from 135
to 137X137 American Sugar, which
headed all other stocks in point of activity,
was also strong;, selling up from 107J to
109J and closing at 10SJ. Distilling and
Cattle Feeding, which was second on the
list in activity, ruled Arm until near tho
close, when it vielded about 12 per cent.
Consolidated Gas rose A. while American
Tobacco common dropped 2 and United
States Rubber common ili to 44.
Among the specialties coloiado Coal was
in brisk demand and advanced 1 to 42,,
closing at 4Pi Coloiado Fuel common rose
t. while tbe'prerened declined 1. Toledo,
Ann Arboi and North .Michigan rose 1, and
later declined i The market closed weak
for the tailways and firm lor the indus
trials. Hallway bonds were generally Arm. The
Readings wcio weaker, for the preference
incomes. The advance in the general list
ranged from M to 2 per cent outside of
Toledo, Ann Arboi and North Michigan firsts,
which jumped 2J ttJ05.

SHARP ADVANCES
In November Lard and October flog Pro
ductsCereals Dull.
CniCAao, Nov. 2L The comet on 'Change
to-day was November lard. That article
made a Dhenomenal advance of 70c. Other
provisions were scarcely less surprisingly
agile. It was talk that Artnonr was cover
ing freoly, and that lie must have been
heavily shiort a week ago. January pork
Jumped up 57Kc. and heW all but 15e of it
January ribinioup3Sfc. Wheat and corn
wcro dnll and steady. The former lost
about Jic of its previous value and tho lat
ter pained a small fraction.
All day hojr products were active and at
times excited. The receipts of live hogs
were aboflt 12,000 head less than expected
and prices at the yards higher. Among
shorts there was a wild rush to cover, with
the clique's brokers helping the excitement
along by bidding against the shorts. During
tho lait hour there were heavy realizing
Kales, but the market, though yielding some
what, whs firm and took the offerings with
out breaking.
Wheat showed firmness at tho start, influ
enced chiefly by the extremo cold weather
iu the Northwest and the licht receipts in
Chicago. But there was heavy selling on
the advance, Pardrldge being the leader and
tho later cables quoting the markets nbroad
1 as easier on heavy offerings of llusslan
wheat, which was having adeprcssingeffect
on tho English markets. Indian shipments
were also more liDeral, having been 18J.O00
bushels last week, against 40,000 bushels the
week previous and 740,100 bushels lor the
- same week last year. Then the visible sup
k ply increased more than generally expected
and tho receipts in the Northwest wore
Corn was nearly featureless. The receipts
were somewhat below expectation, and the
strength of tho provision market helped to
hold corn steady. .
Oats wero very dull. Prices hal a Jc
range, and closed with a net gain of i4&c
Freights were' weaker and c loner, at

if pots of the List
RESULTS OF CORPORATION MEETINGS
Mondat, Nov. 2L
The Eastern stock market ruled weak to
day in the absence of London buying and
the continued talk about the firmness of
sterling exchange and the possibility of
gold exports. "Some disappointment was
shown in the early trading at the absence
of further buying irom London," said a
pecial to Sproul & Co., "and the continued
firmness of exchange rates may also be
reckoned among the features which in
duced hesitation. In this connection
even the easier tendencies of
the money market produces an
unfavorable impression, as it only
increases the ability of Europe to take gold
irom this side it exchange should work to a
slightly higher level. The Granger and
Gould "stocks while not active were some
what unsteady and manifested a strong dis
position to give way on the growing impres
sion that rates are in a bad way and that the
Gould interest is bent upon disturbing mat
ters in the Southwest. In the afternoon the
dullness and absence of interest resulted in
further selling for both accounts with more
or less influence upon pi ices. Rubber is
still something of a feature, the buying to
day coming irom commission houses and
being sufficient in volume to absorb specu
lative offerings."
On the Local Board.
Trading was moderately'active on 'change
to-day, and in some respects the market was
firmer. P. & B. traction led in strength,
followed by Union Switch and Signal and
Luster Mining Company. Citizens trac
tion was the wnakest ipot, and Duquesue
traction was off a slight fraction, but all
tho others wero unchanged from last week's
close, with a steady to firm tone apparent.
P. & B. traction opened at 24J sales, sold

One of the features of the first call was a
sale of 700 shares or La Notia Minins Com
pany at 13c ner share, and a feature of the
last was asalo of Fidelity Title and Trust
Company at 121.
During the closing board Knhu Bros, had

Citizens Traction.
The annual meeting of the Citizens Trac
tion Company was held at 7:30 this evening
and was largely attended. The reports
read showed that the passengers carried
by the cable read for the year numbered
12,505,130; by the. electric cars, 1,154-765,
and by the horse cars 142,649;
total, 13,802,649. Gros receipts from
pat sender traffic, J672.2C4; cross receipts
irom allsonrces,$6:0,299: operating expenses,
including luterest, taxes and damages, $455,.
000; net earnings, 1227,591. The percentage
ot operating expenses to gross receipts,
howover, not including interest, taxes and
dnmages, was 61.69. The net earnings,there
foie, must have been somewhat larger than
thev annear to have neon.
Tub question of leasing tho propertv and
franchises of the Penn street railway and
guaranteeing the principal and interest on
$250,C00 bonds issued by that companv was
settled by a unanimous vote in the affirma
tive. A resolution -was passed instructing the
management to permit the report read and
send it to stockholders.
The gross receipts of the company for Oc
tober were $63,720.
Pittsburg Traction.
The annual meeting of the stockholders of
the Pittsburg Traction Company was held
this morning, seven people, representing
$40,000 shares, mainly by proxy, being in at
tendance. The proposition to change the
date of holding the annual meeting to the
fourth Monday in January was adopted, and
a detailed statement of operations will bo
made at that meeting. A svnopsis was read
which, it is stated, "showed a little less than
8,000,COO passeneera carried and about $400,100
gioss earnings." These figures, it is under
stood, do not embi ace any of the operations
of the Duquesne traction,

Second Avenue Electric
At tho annual meeting of the stockholders
of the Second Avenue Tassenser Railway
Company held this afternoon tho following
directors were elected for the ensuing year:
James D. Callery, William J. Burns, John C.
Reilly, William V. Callery and Georgo C.
Wilson. Notwithstanding tho fact that
about this time last year the car barn of tho
company and the entire car equipment of
the road were destroyed by fire, the busi
ness of the companv 1 or the past vcar was
unusually large, showing a material in
crease over that of any previous year since
its organization. The earnings of the year
approximuted $125,000, and it is said tho
run nt lily earnings are showing a steady in
cioase. The new Johnson rail will soon bo
laid the entiie length of the road.
After the meeting ndjourned the now
board met and organized by re-electing
James D. Callery, President; John a Reilly,
Vice Pi evident, aud William J. Burns, Gen

Wcstlnghouse Electric
By the terms of an arrangement in court
between counsel for the Westlnghouse and
Edison Companies, tho Sawyer-Man Com
pany will continue to manufacture and sell
incandescent lamps until the case is finally
decided by the Court of Appeals. It seems
that the proceedings begnn in tho United
Slates Circuit Court of New York, before
Judge Lacombo, Friday last, wero brought
to this conclusion by a suggestion of tho
Judge that such temporary action sbonld be
taken by consent of counsel on both sides as
would postpone the argument, so that the
case might come before, the full Court of
Appeals. For the purpose or enabling
Judge Lacombe, who is familiar with tiro
subject, to sit -with the other Judges in the
Court of Appeals, Judge Brown was asked
by counsel 1 or both sides to sign the neces
sary papers to bring tho case before tho
Court ot Appeals as an original case.
From the papers filed, it appears that the
suit was brought by tho Edison General Elec
tric Company and the Euison Electric Light
Company, two corporations, which, accord
ing to tho decision in the Sugar Trust case,
have no power to bring such a suit.nll of the
shares of both companies having been ao
quired bv the General Electric Company, it
isalso contended in the papers before the
court, that the operations of tho General
Electric Company, Edison Company, Thomson-Houston
Company and allied interests,
are in violation 01 the Sherman act relative
to efforts to restrain and monopolize trade.
It was after thn presentation of affidavits on
tliesq points, ant the louiarfci of counsel for
the Westlnghouse Company, that the Judge
suggested the above course, whloh was
promptly agreed to by the counsel for the
Westlnghouse Company.but which wns only
consented to by the counsel or the Edison
companies after long deliberation.
Baltimore and Ohio.
The stockholders' of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad Company were in annnal ses
sion in Balttmoro to-day. Mr. Chas F.
Mayer, president Of the company, sub
mitted his report. It says: By resolution
or the Board of Directors, January 20, 1892,
the fiscal year of the company was made to
DISPATCH, TUESDAY,
terminate thereafter on June 30, instead
or September 30, chiefly in order that the
company's fiscal year might correspond
with that fixed by thelnter-State Commerce
Commission. Owing to this change In the
fiscal year a quarterly dividend of i per
cent upon the common stock for the three
munthi ended December 31, 1891, was paid
May 17, 1892, and a dividend of 2& per cent
for the six months ended Jnne 30, 1892, has
been declared payable in November. Oper
ations , for thn nine months ' ended
June ' 30, 1892: Earnings. $18,927,274;
total expenses, S $13,866,577; net
earnings $5,1360,997. Tho revenues of the
Pittsburg and Conncllsvillo nnd Pittsburg
and Wheeling divisions havo been inj urious
ly affected bv the Homestead strike. A com-
Stri'on of the 12 months ended September
1, 1892 (Septetnberpartially estimated), with
tho 12 months ended September 30. 1891,
shows a decrease In net earnings ot $13,795,
or 0.19 per cent. The tervlco performed in
the 12 months ended September 30, 1892, has
been the larsest in the history of the com
pany 15.657,596 tons. Aggregate expendi
tures for construction and betterments for

$2,061,604.

POULTRY IN DEMAND
And Firmer, and So Is Everything Else
In the Thanksgiving- Day Line Mer
chants More Cheerful Because of the
Ending of the Strikes.
Monday, Nov. 21.
Business was unusually good to-day for
the first ot the week, but the markets, while
mainly firm, were barren of features of con
sequence. The movement in staples was
rcporled excellent, but the bulk of the trad
ing was on account of preparations for
Thanksgiving. Merchants were in much
better spirits in consequence of tho ending
of the big Homestead strike and the im
proved condition of Industrial affairs else
where and they talked more cheerfully with
leeard to the inture.
The poultry market is receiving increased
attention. Thanksgiving week generally
witnesses a good demand and we see nothiii"
nt present to make this year an exception!
Large supplies will be required to meet
wants to-morrow and next day nnd consign
ments should be made in time to i each here
not later than Wednesday. Medium-sized
turkevs especially will be sought after nnd
choice stock will command outside prices
Demand for live stock is not very brisk just
now, most buyers giving their attention to
dressed. Receipts of chickens continue
libeial and supplies offered to-day werofully
sufficient to meet the demand.
Game was in large supply to-day, but
prices were woll maintained under a good
demand.
A continued inctivo nnd increasing demand
and liighor prices ,v ere stIi, the main feat.
uresor the egg market to-day. Trices have
been tending higher for some time, and ow
ing to the meager receipts or fresh stock aro
likely to contjnue so
Cabbage continues to come in pretty
ficely, but good stock finds redy buyers on
atrival; large quantities are still wanted,
and liberal shipments should be made now
while weather is favorable. Onions in good
supply; demand not so active as is usual at
this season, still a fair trade is being done
and prices aro holding steady. Fancy, well
bleached celery has a good movement as
quoted; receipts liberal but prices un
changed. Winter vegetables or all kinds-
carrots, turnips, parsnips, etc. havo a good
movement at prices noted when of choice,
quality.
Apples In improved receipt, with supplies
offering to-day quite liberal; demand for
fancy brands continues good and prices re
main unchanged. All varieties of pears,
when in good condition, have a prompt
movement at full figures. Grapes not so
plentiful, leceipts the past week having
materially tallen off, nnd market in con
sequenco ruled somewhat firmer to-day.
"But fow quinces offering and demand only
moderate. Cranberries In good supply; de
mand fair and prices steady.
