A SHORT DESCRIPTION.

The LaBelle was rebuilt last winter by
men who are practical in the glass bust.
ness, and today there is not o better Ar
ranged plant in the United States for the
manufacture of glass. No detail, even to
the smallest, seems TO have been overlook
ed. The O., l. & w. X. X. has q switch
on one side, so ware can be loaded from
the doors Of the first floor, and the @. & p.
has q switch on the opposite side, which
places the Pennsy lvania lines Just as con-
y~enient, while the Ohio River is accessible
at West Wheeling, a few hundred yards
below. The main factory building is COX
140 feet, and IA foot story, and 10 foot
basement. The walls are brick and stone,
and the building is absolutely fire-proof,
having metal floors and roof. II contains
one Nicholson 13-pot furnance, and one
10. pot side-tease furnace, eight leans, four
gloria holes, and ruby oven. The build
ipgs containing the other departments are
170x90 feet, and two stories high. The
first floor is fire-proof, and the other floor
so arranged rs to be practically 10.
A well-known and disinterested glass
man, in speaking Of the plant, said that he
had looked the place over carefully and
could not see q single instance where an
improvement could be made, aud that he
could, If he had the LaBelle, tave S., goo q
year which his company lost In the mere
matter Of handling the ware incidental TO
moving them from n department to an
other in the building.
In an interview last night Capt. Muhlo-
man said:
eyes, it is true that myself and friends
have subscribed $780, 600 stock on the con-
ditieps you mention, and II the people
who should feel an interest in the concern
will put up the remaining $50, 900 the

again, on q sound basis and under good
management. To-day we can say nearly

As is we'll known, the La Belle Com

been run q part of the time on borrowed

manned entirely idle. Last September the
entire plant was consumed by fire, and
with the insurance and other available
capital and loans, the old company rebuilt
the concern and commenced operating it.
A little later accumulated liabilities and
bonded debts made an assignment neces-
sary and the plant and a~ppurtenances were
turned over to Addison Thompson, rs as-
siguee, TO be disposed of according to law
for the benefit of the creditors.
Since then the plant has been simply in
creasing the liabilities Of the old Company
in tho way of watchmsn, insurance, and
assigness's fees. II was appraised at 49,.
900, and has been
