ware Reporter says that the window glas,
trade is improving, not so much in actual

is slow Of sale and there is talk Of tenn

condition. Of the prescription trade, chin
lleys are in fair demand and tableware is
better, although it is early yet for a
decided increase in business. The trouble
in the lint chimney houses has been ar.
ranged by the adoption Of anew scale OF
wages. for many years the schedule was:
Blowers, g; gatherers, 81; one boy fifty
cents and one boy 40 cents move. The
manufacturers offered to make wages cor
respond with those paid atthe lime houses,

ed, as has been the case in the lime
houses, The wages OF the blowers range
according to the kind of chimneys they
mako. These are the highest wages ever
paid to gatherers here. Blowers can now
make from 81 % to S. day, working
about seven hours.

PirrspURaH, Jan. 22.-The creditors OF
Oliver Bros. & Phillips and the oliyer &
Roberts Wire Company Limited met this
morning to listen to the report Of the
committee. Mr.. John Harper presided.
The committee Of creditors consisting Of
Messrs. John slagle, John Chalfant, John
Dalzell, James N. Bailey and George A.
Berry, examined the condition Of the
firms affairs and looked into the state.
ment and ell its bearings, and reported in
It's favor, with some notifications. 1t was
decided that instead OF paying the inter
est on the extension notes at the time the
notes themselves are due, separate notes
for the interest should be given, payable
every ,six months. The firm agreed to
this change in the manner OF paying. Az
the first meeting at was suggested that the
creditors should be asked TO
sign the extension papers. This the com.
mittea declared was unnecessary and
unwise, as the mortgages were all placed
in the'hands OF strong holders, who would
larry them as long as interest was paid.
The modification was agreed to also.
Mr.. James Donnell, who was selected as
,ne Of three trustees, announced that he
could not serve, and Mr.. james NJ. Bailey
was chosen in his place. The Board Of
Trustees will stand thus: Alex @. Byers,
James. Al. Bailey and Orlando NJ. Harper.
The creditors expressed themselves as
greatly pleased with theshowing and with
The arrangements agreed upon. There
was no fault found with the rate OF inter
est nor the time proposed.
The formal extension paper arranged by
the committee was then agreed to by the
AS soon as the papers can be
drawn up and the preparations made the
creditors will sign the extension.
This happy result is regared as the best
possible outcome Of the difficulties Of the
tirm.
"Itis asplendid arrangement for both
he creditors and the firm,n said the Pres
dent OF city bank, and what he said was
endorsed by, all those present.
