And a otes of Interest Picked Up Among
the Mills and Work shops-A Busy
City.
The LaBelle is running brisk. The
day turn has been making FIVE heats and
the night turn three. The factory mas
had to knock off once in a while Tor lack
of iron.
The new buildings Of the Nail City
Brewery are making the desired prog
ress. II will be fully three months be-
fore they are completed. Over half q
million oil bricks will be used and q
large quantity of stone. During the
busy season Of building the firm has
been compelled 10 drop part OF its GUS
tom.
The intense heat has served to make
work in the mills very uncomfortable
this week and some instances even in
tolerable, but 80 far none OF the factories
have closed down. There is a good de-
mand for iron now, and nails are sold as
rapidly as produced. The glass factories
are allin operation, and all report plenty
Of orders.
The Hobbs, Brockunier & Co. glass
house reports business as being as good
or even better than at the correspond
ing period last year, and the September
trade is now starting up and the future
outlook is excellent. The furnace, which
has been undergoing repairs, will be in
operation next week and the company
will then be running to their full capac-
ity, thirty eight pots.
Orders at the Wheeling Pottery Com
pany are a month ahead Of the firm.
Their shipments are reported az being
very heavy and almost all r to the
West. One order from Minneapolis,
Mimi, amounts to S., 900 or 5000. A
very pretty little specimen OF workman
ship was shown yesterday, which is in
tended for a happy surprise to some
South Wheeling man.
Sweeney's are still at work on the
machinery for Heatherington's boat, the
Belmont, and in about ten days she will
be ready for the trade. They have re-
ceived an order from Bonnell, Reese 4
Co., of Newcastle, Pa, to supply a roll
ing mill with crusher chills. They have
also some other boat repairs to make
which will require some time. One OF
Stones flexible shifts has been intro
duced into their works and can be used
for almost anything where circular mo-
ton is required, and il struck the repor-
ter Yesterday that such an arrangement
is almost indispensable for the kind OF
work it proposes to do.
The r verside reports everything as
good as can we'll be Tor this time OF year.
In fact everything is first.class, consid-
ering the hot weather. Work will be
more brisk when the weather becomes
more favorable. Several Of the heaters
have been sick and are in need Of rest.
In consequence Of this the factory has
not been run to its full capacity, making
on an average only about six hundred
kegs, whereas its full capacity on an
average is seven hundred. The
factory will knock off this evening
till Tuesday, as the forge de,
partment cannot keep sufficient nail
plate ahead. The orders now run some
two or three weeks in the future, and
plenty are coming in.

To-Day's Boat Race.

This evening the race between VIM.
0'Hanlon and August Knoke will take
place over the lower course. O'Hanlon
has been 10 this city for the last fortnight
and has been und. rgoing the most active
training imaginable. He is a rather
robust and we'll made man and this fact
has s-rved to make the matter Of betting
rather complicated. rs Knoke is suppos-
ed to be rather underweight and has q
boat much too large for him.
knoke is very well trained
but is rather light for the race. He is
however, a very game little earsman
and despite the odds in favor of his
an Sersary in the way OF avoirdupois, the
Pittsburgher will find that he will have
no soft snap. The pools at Helmbnghl's
last night sold nearly even with 0'Han-
lon a slightfsvorite.
Louis Felsing has been selected rs
referee and saws he will start the men
as soon after 5 O'Clock as possible.
