Rather Quiet After Christmas-A Syndicate
Of Iron Men Likely to Purchase 400
Acres Fronting on the Monongahela.
TUESDAY, Dec q.
. Not great deal of business was trans
acted to-day in the realty circles, though
quite number Of important deals were
slated for settlement.
A meeting was to have been held to-day
in the Office of James M. Wilkinson be-
tween the Intending purchasers and sellers
of tract of about 400 acres of
ground situated up the MonongahelA
river, but like the other contemplated con-
ferences did not materialize, the Christmas
turkey evidently having interfered, as sew
eral of the parties interested did not put in
through, and it undoubtedly will from pres
ent indications, will be one of the largest
transactions OF the year. as it involves $780,
OOO. The particulars cannot be made known
as yet. The intending purchasers, however,
are several prominent local iron merchants,
who have formed syndicate for the pcr-
move their works from the city to this new
field.

From Sproul & Co.'s New York market let
ter: Money was on the whole closer with 8
per cent rate in fOrce, while industrial
collateral is apparently entirely out of fa-
vor. The market is evidently preparing for
the disturbance which will naturally occur
just before and after January !, though
the fact that gold shipments are not looked
for this week may exercise modifying in
duence In the late afternoon an upward
movement in New England supplemented
by a similar kind of activity in New York
& Northern became the absorbing feature
This proceeding was interpreted as both
sympathetic and significant, the possibility
that the New England is about to acquire
an independent entrance to this city COM

Manhattan is earning between ten and
twelve per cent on the stock, and compar-
ison is being made between this stock and
the surface roads; the bulls say that thev
ought to sell on the same basis AS the street
railroad, but they do not say that the ele-
vnted road requires ten times as much re-
pairs and that the chances of accident are
also much greater. The sterling exchange
market is much weaker, and the chances of
gold shipments are rather remote; still we
do not see how larger movement than a
drive against the shorts can set in at pres
ent, as long as the dangerous silver coinage
policy hangs over the financial community.

MERCHANDISE MARKETS QUIET.
Wholesalers and Retailers Operating Light

Iy-No Change in EIgin Creamery Butter
Eggs Quoted Higher-Poultry and
Game Firmly Held.
TUESDAY, Dec. q.
The wholesale merchandise markets
opened up quietly after the double holiday,
but the quietude was only natural to the
time of year and excited no comment. Both
wholesalers and retailers are sailing close
in shore just now, and activity and note
worthy features will undoubtedly be con-
spicuously lacking until well into the new
year.
At the meeting of the Elgin butter board
yesterday sales were made at last weeks
prices (30c), and as the board adjourned for
two weeks there will probably be no change
in prices current here until after the next
meeting of the board. However, Elgin ad-
vices quote a very firm market.
Wholesale grocers, dealers in hog prod
ucts, produce commission men and mer-
chandise brokers had no new suggestions to
offer, but here and there slightly trmer
Ione was apparent. Eggs were quoted
higher. The only really weak spot was in
grain and iced. though Western markets
mani ested an upward tendency.
Poultry and game are firmly held and in
game some prices are higher, but while the
demand for poultry ut the moment is quiet
stocks are light and not being pressed TOR
sale.
On the Chicago Board of Trade business
has been fair for the last half of December.
Wheat and corn are kept down in value by
the continued overwhelming receipts, re-
sulting in an enormous supply in ware
houses. This is especially true OF wheat,
which keeps on showing great gains in "the
visible every week. The grea test rush
Is in the Northwest, and consequently the
mammoth elevators in Minneapolis and Du-
luth are fairly loaded down with wheat,
while country elevators also hold large
quantities. Quite a number of well.known
Capitalists, attracted by its extraordinary
cheapness. have been buying wheat in
wholesale way, Dut the price falls back with
every large purchase, as there is an over
wheiming amount for sale. Provisions pre-
sent a striking contrast to grain ana are sell
ing at an unusually high price in sympathy
with hogs. Cudahy is said to have sold
good share of his holdings at liberal adj
vances on the prices that the pork and lard
cost him, but Charles Wright keeps on buy
ing on every break in prices. The future of
the market will depend upon whether the
hog receipts increase or continue to fall be-
low the requirements of packers.
