professional men in everything. The
Board of Trade is in communication
with Eastern men who are agents for a
hundred or more unsatisfied manufac-
tories with capital ranging from $40, 900
to 81, 900, 900, and which desire change
of location. Some of these concerns are
known to be large affairs, but the COM
mission the agents want would make a
good bonus In itself, and Bellaire is not
engaged in that kind Of thing at pres
| ent."
