PI1TsBURG, PA, Nov. "a Trade is
reported to bequite dull in all the vari-

the exception OF window glass and
specialties. President Cline of the

says that reports received at his flee
from different portions of the country
indicate fairly active trade everywhere
The secretary of the Window-Gla lass
Manufacturers association makes the
same statement. This is accounted
for by the fact that there was
but little glass in the country
after the prolonged strike, and since
then the manufacturers have been try.

and all the factories were allowed full
run, Since that time the demand has
