Another Report that the Realty Glass
Works Will Start,

A good deal has been said about the state.
meat that the Beatty Glass Works, at steu-
benyille, would not suspend for the slx weeks
for which other glass factories are expected
to be idle. Saturdays steubenville Gazette
says on this subisct:
Several months since there was general
talk among glass manufacturers and their
employees iavoring SIX or eight weeks shut
down during the heated term for the purpose
Of cur!ailing production and thus stitfen up
prices, which were getting weak, as It was
thought because OF superabnndant stock on
the market At that time A. J. Beatty's
Sons, who have been in the habit OF running
their own business regardless OF trade combi-
nations, after conversing with most OF their
employees and getting their views, decided,
with general consent OF tbs men, To shut
down only week, or two at the furthett, al
though many other factories determined TO
take longer rest. About three weeks ago,
however, certain emissaries from Wheeling,
mingled among the Beatty glass workers and
created degree Of discomfort with the AZ
rangement among them, particularly the
gathering boys, and probably one-tifth OF the
hands, under this influence, argue that the
six weeks shut down Is the propr thing for
Beatty's as well as other glass houses. The
works shut down for the ordinary Fourth Of
July rest last Saturday, but the proprietors
propose to start up again Monday next since
they are in condition 10 run right along and
they don't feel like making long stop to &C
commodate other manufacturers, whose ware
doesn't meet with so ready q sale
as theirs. Notwithstanding this deter
m'nation, the Wheeling mischief-makers
are still at work and wall make
trouble, II possible, although they have In
tluenced only small number Of the men,
their work showing up principally on the
boys, who are rather favorable to long hol-
idsy. But we are informed that with the
equities OF the case and the moral support OF
nearly all the men on their side, the Beattys
will start and continue 10 run, even II for q
while, the works will be crippled through
lack OF gathering boys. III this the Messrs.
Beatty have done exactly right, inssmuoh rs
1t Is presumed they know how to run their
own busine without the assistance OF the
apostlesof political economy from Wheeling,
and we feel that the determination not to
shut down will meet with general approba.
ton from the people OF steubenyille."
The GQ=stte evidently misunderstands the
situation. The manufacturers had nothing
to do with ordering the shut down. The sut.
pension was resolved on by the National
Glass Workers Association, and as has been
explained in these columns before, no glass
employing union hands can run withouta
break IN the Association.

IAN old man living in Marshall county re-
Gently met with an experience which he will
not soon forget. He was walking down the

clear The bridge. Suddenly his foot slipped
on one OF the oily ties, aud he was thrown
10 hisknees between the rails As he rose he
glanced toward the train, and his blood must
have turned cold when he saw 1t Just coming
into the covered bridge at q speed which
quick as thought annihilated the short dis

In a million for his life suggested itself, and
without hesitation he lay down Oh the ends
OF the ties. His action was watched by the
engineer and fireman, and Its almost utter
lhopelessness was seen. They turned away
with an involuntary exclamation OF horror,
expecting the next instant TO feel the jar Of
the wheels as they mangled his body 70
shreds. The man had scarcely lain
down when the train was on him,
and the COW catcher plowed him from
his narrow shelf. II before he had
but one chance In ambition for his life, 1t
