Cudahy & Wricht to day disposed of a considerable portion of their holdings of pork aud ribs. A slump of 85c in pork, 25o In lard and 17c in ribs was largely a result of their action. Poik and lard at the close had recovered 12c of the decline and rib 6c The grain markets were dnll after the first hour or sessionard closed a shade lower than yesteiday. Wheat opened a shade higher, Influenced chiefly by the decrease in the amount on passage and the free exports from the sea board, but the free deliveries in the North west and reports that the deliveries would only be restricted by the scarcity of cars, made a weak feeling. Another thing used to depress the market was the reports that the friends of the anti-option bill were pre paring to push that measure through Con gress as soon as that body convened. Cables were also weak,and in some positions lower. All this, in connection with the exceeding dullness and narrowness of the trade, pro moted a decline. The visible supply was the largest on record. The market recovered somewhat on the small receipts estimated for to-morrow. Corn was extremely slow and the market about featureless. The weakness in u beat and provisions helped to depress corn. The opening was unchanged from yesterdaj'a close. A decline of 5o ensued, lollowed by a rally oTHc, when the light estimate for the receipts to-morrow became known. In oats there was a moderate trade, with a range of Jc in fluctuations. Theolosewas easy at c decline from yesterday for May and at a loss of J4c for December. The provision market opened weak and at considerably lower than yesterday's closing prices. The hog receipts were heavier than had been looked for by as many as 9,000 head. The market for hogs was described as flrmf-arly and weak and lower later. The Liverpool market was quoted Is higher for lard and firm for meats. Wright was one of the heaviest sellers or ribs earlv. He dis posed of about 1,000,000 pounds and gave up Cudahy & Co.'s name on his sales., lie and Cudahy were both sellers of January and buvers of May pork Freights were quiet, viith'little demand for vessel room at 2c for whfeatand 2c for corn to Buffalo: some of the large boats are lay ing up rather than accept present rates.

Citizens Traction Opens Father Weak and Closes Quite Firm. ALL THE LATEST FINANCIAL NEWS Tuesday, Not. 22. Trading in local securities was again moderately active on 'Ch ange to-day, bnt the market was quite narrow and developed few features ot real importance. P. & B. traction was stronger under a continued good demand; Citizens traction was weak early and fractionally stronger later and Luster and Union Switch and Signal'gained small fractions. United States Glass com mon was bid up to 66X; Airbrake was steady to firm at 132 bid; Underground Cable was held at the usual range, 7S76; gas shares were barely steady and others were featureless. The character of the buying of P. & B. traction was quite encouraging to those who are work ing for higher prices. Considerable of the stock was picked up at 2ii2iJ regular and 35 buyer-90, and there was a market for several hundred shares at 24. At least one broker had an order for 000 shares at that price A good deal of gossip was Indulged in aoout the showing made at the annual meeting of the. Citizens Traction Company, and the tenor or it all Indicated that the fig ures presented had made a very good im pression Indeed, particularly thoBe with reference to the cost of operating the road. A number ol little things, and one or tvro pretty big ones, of which some of the street peopla were cognizant, were not bi ought out by such figuies as were ob tainable Tor publication;but the report read will soon be sent out to stockholders in pamphlet lorm, and it may be that the few points on which some appear to be bolozgcd vi ill then bo satisfactorily explained. There was also a little gossip lelattve to a snort age of gas in certain portions of the city, but it was lacking in definiteness and was ap parently without effect.

There was littlo change yesterday in the lower oil fields. The production of the Mo Donald pool was estimated at 20,000 barrels, the same as the day before. Tho Woodland Oil Company's No. 2 on the Scott farm was reported to have fallen irom 65 to 60 barrels an hour. They made locations for two more wells on this farm yesterday and they expect to have them spudding by the first of next week. Knox Bros. & Co.'s No. 2, on the Soott property, is still making 50 barrels an hour. They hive also commenced further opera tions. Yesterday they were rigging up at No. 3 and No. I will be spudding the last of the week. These wells have been located east of the others, as it Is believed that the richest part of the pool lies in that dliec tiou. Other operators who hold leases In this locality intend to develop their propel ty before long, and it may yet turnout that the region southwest of the railroad, and tho town of McDonald, is as rich as that to the northeast. In the territory which is now known as the old McDonald pool, the rich belts were long and exceedingly narrow. At no place had they a width of more than a few hun dred feet, and outside of these 1 ich belts tho territory was not remarkable for big wolls. For every gusher there were from 12 to 20 small wolls drilled, but the astonishing fea ture of the field was the lact that the first wells were in nearly every case the big ones. First Test Wells No Good. In the district southwest of McDonald there have been a number ot what were called "test weIfs'T drilled, and in each a lit tle oil has been found, but not in great quan tities in the fifth sand and for this reason the trade in general had become disgusted with that locnlltyand declared that it was no good. Later developments have proven tho contrary. One of the owners of the Reed farm well, which was drilled nearly a year a -o and showed a littlo oil, stated yesterday that another well would probably be started on this (arm soon, but to the cast of the Hist, one. -mis wen is almost a nine ana a quirter southwest or the So tt farm, and a few hundred feet west ol a 45-degree line from the big Scott wells. The lidal Oil Company, which recently purchased the bulk of Greenlee & Forst's leases in the McDonald field, has furnished a set of magnificent offices at Noblestown, and will make that point its headquarters for all or its oil business in Pennsylvania. Reports from its upper country piopertv will be forwarded to Noblestown, and from tli on co to the home offices of the company in New York. Yesterday the officers of the company made locations for Nos. 6 and 7 on the Gladden farm, half a mile south of McDonald. The Noblestown ofilco will be iu charge of John L. Hunker, and Mr. Jones, recently with thoFoiest Oil Company. Greenlee & Forst's No. 1 Woods, near Gregg station, is due in the fifth Fi iday or Saturday. Drilling for Lower Unrtercliff Sands. Uhdehcliff Patterson & Sohn are drill ing In the fourth sand at their Erhmentrout well. They have started to drill again at their Zucker farm well, whioli was shut down when 10 or 12 :eet in the SO-foor, The ligat theKlcitz woll is about completed. The first one was burned. Mcrcor & McClurg expect to reach tho 80 foot this morning on the Miller farm. lttmer &, Co. are on top of the i0-foot on the Gilmer laim, which is located northeast of the'KesBler. Jennings & Co. are through the 30-foot nnd drilling to the third sand 01 the Herman faim. Thev have about 1,600 feet of 30-foot oil in the hole. Fisher Bros, are, duo next week on tho Klouse fai m, which lies between the Eessler and the Herman farms. The East End Oil Company is still fishing In the salt sand on tho Geoige Eleitz. Rosenrl is below all known sands in his well at Wlttmer station, but he is still drill ing. New Sistersllle Wells. SisTERSViLLE Jennings & Grace's No. 3 on the Whitton farm is duo next week. Grace & Co.'s No. 1 Cain is making 90 barrels a day, and No. 2 is in the sand and showing for a better well than No. L The Kanaw ha Oil Company's Nos. 5 and 8 on the Ludolph firm are due this week. They are starting No. 7 Ludolph and No. 3 Calvin. The Gauges Monday.

Sales on the Elgin Board at a Decline of a Cent From Last Week Coffee Excited and Strong An Active Movement In Poultry Grain Somewhat Firmer, Tuesday, Nov. 22. On the Elgin Butter Board yesterday sales of creamery butter were made at a de cline of lc from last week's prices, and a corresponding decline will occur here the latter part of the week. Creamery had reached a point where consumption was diverted to country butter, and a reaction in the former was inevitable. The general coflee market is excited and strong. The latest reports from the grow ing crop at Bio and Santos is that the crop is uot only small, but that there must be a great sc.ucity of labor in gathering it The liboieis that have been iu that part of the country, and weie the main dependence for gathering the coffee ciop, were largely Ital ians anil Portuguese, and they have found the clitnato too much for them, and have gone f.irtlior south to escape the heat. This has leic many of the coffee plantations witlioutlaboreis for harvesting the crop. The latest leports are ot a very firm mar ket, v ith prices higher. The feeling in tho New York inaikot is very firm, following tbiiflimer position in the producing conn tries. The demand for consumption has been great for the past six or eight months, and the stocks on hand are aotnnlly small. Strong opinions predict a still further ad vance. Theiewas a very liberal movement in oultiy to day, with turkevs most active, ive turkeys sold at ll12o per lb, and diessednt lf17c, according to the way they wore dressed, full dres-ed, nicely packed stock bringing the outside price. Chickens nnd ducks were in fair demand and geese were rather slow, A slightly higher market is predicted tor Wednesday, though the in dications pointed to heavy leceipta. Grain is firm and flour weaker and dealers say there is bound to be an eaily advance In flour. Timothy and clover seed aie lower here, though the Western maikets continue fairly firm.

Drygoods. New York, Nov. 22. While the demand for drygoods has abated in accordance with the more or lest full supplies secured by the laiger class of buyers, there continues to be presented for cottons especially a good vol ume of demand from others in the trade who have yet to cover future wants. Agents to a considerable degree endeavor not to make sales too far ahead, but goods have retched a point of remarkable scarcity with the inevitable consequence of higher prices. Auents to-day made the following price changes: AH Atlantic cottons were pi iced "at value."
