Business Notes.

EXTENSIVE Improvements will be made next
spring at Wildwood station. Land is cheap in
that locality
THE New York bank scandal has SO far failed
to disturb financial circles Money was easy
there yesterday.
THOMAS SINGER has purchased land near
Beaver Falls. upon which he proposes to erect
an organ factory.
THERE is a brisk demand for business houses
in the central part of the city. Small dwellings
are also in request. Both are scarce.
AN oil broker said yesterday that the
Standard is selling Lima oil right along. The
odor still clings to it. but it is cheap, and
country people are satisfied with IT, AS an
illuminant it is equal to any.
ON Tuesday. February II, John D. Bailey will
b old stock auction at the Chamber of Com
m cree rooms that will be phenomenal in some
respects. 1t will comprise all the local stocks
owned by the late VIM. Carr, ana include
good many bank and other shares that rarely
come upon the market.
The appraisers appointedito estimate the ex-
tent of the loss by the school fire at Wilkins
burg have completed their report They ap-
proximate the damages at $27,0 ,024 OIL. The en-
tire insurance was $4,000, and the difference
between these two amounts IS estimated as the
value of the property saved, including the
standing walls The money will be paid over
to the School Board in few days.

IRON TRADE REVIEW.
No Signs of a Reaction in Legitimate
Business at Home.
A GREATER VOLUME OF TRADE
Is Confidently Expected in the Leading
Markets of the West.
THE OUTLOOK IN EASTERN CENTERS

The situation is practically the same as it
was week ago. Gray forge and Bessemer
mons are the weak factors of markets. On
these grades there has been some shading
the past week. While markets cannot be
said in truth to be active, there is no disPo-
sition on the part OF holders of standard
brands to concede on prices. The time is
not vet here for active demand for spring
trade Mills throughout this section stocked
up well last month, and will not lay in sup
plies for spring trade until it is known how
the cat will jump. There is. however. no likeli-
hood OF decline. as all consumers Of iron and
steel are working up to their capacity and de-
mand for products is better than it has been for
years al this time.
The depression of the past week or two has
not affected standard brands. The principal
sufferers from the depression have been the
spectators who have been carrying heavy
loads and find a necessity to unload. Manu-
facturers all express confidence in the outlook.
There are at TINS date no signs Of a reaction
20 legitimate trade. Steel rails are in good de-
maud. Orders on the books of the Edgar
Thomson Works insure lively trade Tor the
next half wear, notwithstanding the fact that
the capacity of tue works will be increased 1ully
% per cent in the next few weeks.
The output of steel rails at the Edgar
Thomson works for the month of January
averaged over LOO tons every "A hours; Be
fore summer the average will pass i, 5OO tons
daily and the entire yield will be in demand,
according to present outlook. The nail market
is the same as a week ago.
Iron nails are scarcely quotable, as according
to reports of our joDbers. not one keg IN a
hundred of the nails called for are iron. Steel
nails give more signs of strength and hrmness
the past week than wire nails, but prices on
both are unchanged. In general, the under
tone of iron and steel markets is strong, and
while concessions are made in some lines,
standard brands are firm and the outlook for
prosperous year is bright all along the line.
Following are the latest prices OF iron and
steel products.

Corner Petroleum.

Failure of the New York Stock Exchange 10
Corner Petroleum.
The oil market was weak at the opening yes
terday and very erratic. 1t was little firmer
at the close. The first quotation was 81 O4A,
With very little doing, the market sold down
to 81 o. and then advanced on shorts covering
to 81 05s6 the highest point of the day. 1t then
broke to 81 04sz, but soon recovered to II O51s,
which was offered at the close, and around
which figure considerable long oil was sold.
There were a few sales of March oil at 81 Oo24.
The corner which some anticipated as re-
suit of the New York Stock Exchange buying
cash oil the latter part of the month did not
materialiEe. Instead of boom it was BOOM
erang. A scalper from New York tried to bull
the market by bidding for blocks without ouy-
ing. AS soon as he dropped out the maTket
reacted. The range was: Opening 81 o47z;
highest 81 05sES; lowest 81 03; closing. 81 O51s
New York and Oil City did most OF the BUY
ing. Pittsburg and Bradford we're sellers'
Thursdays clearances were 9S4 900 barrels
Field news was rather tame. Nothing new
was reported from the Shanopin field. Hag.
gerty 9, Washington county, was said to be
flowing at the rate of 4S0 barrels day: AT
Canonsburg the Manufa turelB Gas Com
pany's McKeown No. is flowing 100 barrels a
day from the Gordon. and the No is showing
for 75-barrel well at the top Of the pay-streak
in the same sand.
Graham, Long & Co.'s No. ], on the Wahl
farm, on Big creek, in the Hundred-foot dis
trict, Butler county, struck heavy vein OF gas
and has a good showing for oil. AS this we'll is

siderable new territory.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DlbFATCd.I
CINCINNATI, January SL-The iron market
still presents the appearance of stand-oh be-
tween sellers and buyers, and the business cur
rent is for small lots mainly. The feeling is
such that small matters arc magniied to mean
great things. Speculative offerings. about
which much is said. are In reality very light at
all points west of PittSburg, and the informa-
ton is that holding in second hands there are
much reduced. A careful calculation shows
that all the iron held in speculative or middle
hands west of the Alleghenies would not sup
ply current consumption in the same territory
four days, probably not two days. Warrant
iron figures but little in the West though an
occasional lot is pressed for sale at under
price. Conservative men see nothing in the
situation looking to a reaction. but believe that
iron is being consumed quite as fast as 1t is
being made, and that when it again begins TO
appear, there will be another active market
and strong prices. Leading Southern makers
still hold firmly and are confident.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.I
NEW YORK, January S1.-The dullness in the
pig iron market is causing some buyers to dis
cuss possible drop of so cents per ton in pig
iron prices. Furnaces in all parts Of the coun-
sry are oversold for periods ranging from 30
days to six months, but in using this term
it is not to be understood that the
entire capacity is sold. Should a drop
occur it would be natural to expect the
cancellation of many orders. Makers in the
East, West and South have made sales within
a week az what are considered trifiing conces-
sions from December quotations, but the iron
sold has not been classed as among the best,
nor are sellers at such concessions among the
strongest. For the present large buyers are
deferring placing additional orders for spring
or summer. On behalf of makers the great
majority of them are holding firmly at Decem-
Der quotations and are not soliciting business
bought heavily in December are not
willing to admit that they made
q mistake, but the rapid increases in output is
point which is attracting more and more at
tention- Consumption thus far is keeping up
well. Railway car building, ship building and
boat building requirements may expand greatly
during the next few weeks, and buyers rely
largely upon an improving demand from this
quarter for firm prices. Unusual activity in
inquiry ana demand prevails among makers of
bar. sheet and plate iron as well as
and tubes quite anxious to place
orders. Structural IRON of all kinds will be
contracted for very largely. Merchant steel
and barb wire are moving quite freely. Steel
rails are S35 at Eastern mills, and in Western
mills quotations have been advanced to S3S,
but it is not claimed that orders, large or small
have been booked at that figure. Nails and
general hardware are in good demand through
out the West and South. Iron and steel prices

HIS PENSION INCREASED.
An Important Ruling on the Subject of Per.
manent Disability.

manent Disability.
WASHINGTON, January S1.-Assistsnt
Secretary Bussey has rendered decision in
the case of Daniel A. Wood. late of Com
pany K, First West Virginia Cavalry, in
which the former adverse action of the PEN
sion Bureau is reversed, and the claim Tor
increase and rerating of pension followed.
Upon the report of the examining surgeons
the Commissioner of Pensions allowed only
$50 per month, on the ground that the con-
dition described by the surgeon is not con-
sidered permanent. The Assistant Secre-
tarv, referring to this action, saws:
When does a disability become permanent
From recent testimony it appears that the pen
sioner's condition has not ameliOrated since his
last examination. He has been on his back Tor
two years. How many more years must ne he
there before the doctors can decide that the
disability is permanent 1 cannot be-
lieve that it is necessary to wait until the PEN
soner is dead before deciding whether his con-
dition of helplessness is permanent or not. The
probability, from a medical standpoint las ap-
pears from the examining surgeons certif1eate,
which 1 regard as the best evidence on that
point). being wholly in favor of its continuance
in the present degree, he should have the bene-
fit Of whatever doubt there may be in that re-
gard.
The claimant is allowed $31 % per month
from November II. 1888, and $50 per month
thereafter.

rsPKc1AL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH;
PHILADELPHIA, January 3L-Buyers and
SELLERS in the iron market are playing game of
fox and geese, in which the buyer waits for
timely moment to seize his prey. The require
ments Of consumers have been pretty well sup
piled by previous orders, and as the furnaces
and mills are all busy putting out large
products, buyers are confident that lower
prices will be made within 80 days. The buyers
are looking closely after the necessities of pro-
ducers, and when one is found whom they be-
lieye must sell to meet obligations they insist
on concessions being made from quotations.
The stronger concerns however which really
regulate the market adhere very closely to
prices as quoted and insist that bv March an
advance of 25c to Soc per ton in the price of pig
iron Will be made and that the entire market
will be strengthened thereby
No. foundry at Tidewater is worth 500 OO0
% so per ton, No. Sl9 90 and gray forge

concessions. Bessemer is worth so 90 ner
ton billets $389SS 80, muck bars S22 5O033 90
q consumers yards with special sales
at S32 90. Prices on structural iron
are practically unchanged and sheet iron is
steady. New steel rails are firm at SGB per ton
and any movement below that figure is due to
resales, the seller having been fortunate enough
TO stock up before the advance. Old rails are
steady at S27 50@26 per ton. Quotations on
manufactured iron and steel respectively are:
