OTHER JOBBERS

Wool, Glass and China, Hats and Caps
Etc.
Mr.. Morris HOrkheimer, Of the firm
OF HOrkheimer Bros, said;
1.-THE tariff agitation always has more
or less effect upon the wool business,
making the market unsteady, and the
passage Of government control from one
political party to the other, with the
attendant tariff bills Ringing upon the
wool question, has a tendency TO make
the market unsteady. Our business
during the past year was fully % per
cant better than during 1890, but we
cannot tell anything about what the
future has in store, for the reasons l
have mentioned"
At Mr.. Henry K. Lists establish
ment, the wool business for the year
was reported very good. Fair prices
have been received, and the sales have
reached expectations. The trade for
next year depends in a great measure
whether or not there will be the usual
tariff agitation in Congress.

What the Manufacturers and Business
Men of the G. ass Citg Did
The year just closed was not made
memorable by anything startling in an
industrial way, but it has added an
other feather to the little city's cap In
that 1t has developed the great staying
Qualities Of the Glass City.
Christmas traffic was livelier than ex-
pected and most merchants wore a
broad smile after the IRISH was over.
A good trade is looked for in the
spring.
During 1891 q new Industry, that CT
brick manufacture, was developed, and
this departure from glass and iron,
Bellaire's well known staples, is thought
to be a starting point for diversity OF
manufactures. The hills west Of Bel
lalre contain unlimited quantities OF
splendid clay for the manufacture OF
brick. Seyeral new concerns sra likely

been very encouraging the year through.
We opened up new territory last year. :"

HIBBERD SON.
Mr.. Hibberd, of the firm Of Hibberd &
Son, said:
1.-THE year has been an unusually
prosperous one with US, owing to the
building activity, and the gross amount
of business in 80 as compared with '91,
will show handsome margin in favor
of the latter year. Next year, think.
we will have another business boom,
which means a great deal OF business
for the plumbers"
TRIAIBLE LUTZ.
Mr.. Trimble, of the firm OF Trimble
& Lutz, said:
El"Our business year does not terminate
until February 1st. yet we can say that
the past season has been very pros
porous one. Building activity means
work for the plumbers, and as every
body is predicting good building sea-
son next year, we expect to do a good
business"
ROBERT KYLE.
Mr.. Kyle said
1--WE did more work in one month of
this year than in the entire year OF 1890.
The month OF December is usually con-
sidered very dull one, yet it was as
good as any during the year. l have
already enough contracts placed to keep
me busy until the first of April. Next
year 1 expect to be equally as prosper
Gus In all the building trades as the
present year"
MANSBERGER, LOTT & M'KowN.
Joseph Mansberger, OF the firm Of
Manst erger, Lott & McKown, said:
THE past year has been very pros
porous one in the building interests, and
we have done our share of the business.
Our work will show up over Is per cent
better than during the preceding twelve
months. I consider the prospect for
next years business to be equally as
bright"
WIN. HARE.
Mr.. VIM. Hare, of the firm Of VIM.
Hare & Son, said:
sour trade increased fully one-third
last year over the previous years bust
ness. This fact was due to two causes.
First, the strike OF 1890, which affected
building operations, and second, the ex-
ceptional amount OF building done the
past year. l think 81 will be repe-
tition of 80 and probably better"

"We have just been estimating the

provement Of about fifteen per cent.
There appears at present to be a great

TO a prosperous season during '92.

o. G. Genther said:
Far worse than last year was the toy
trade of this year. / attribute this in
part to the stringent money market,
which has now prevailed for some three
months. Money is unusually tight. 1t
is the same way with theatres. We had
a much better season at the Grand
Opera House last season than this"
P. Loecher said:
"The toy business about held its own
last year, nothing more. There has
been no particular increase in any Of the
lines of toys. This is largely owing to
competition not only abroad, but right
here at home. / believe there was more
money in circulation in Wheeling this
holiday season, but it was divided up
more among the stores"

/. 6. DILLON & co.
The members Of l. G. Dillon & Co.
did an extensive business the past year,
and particularly during the holiday sea-
son. In addition to the large local
trade, many orders were filed from out
of town. There was liberal call this
season for the more expensive pieces OF
jewelry, and the trade in precious stones
was remarkably strong.
JOHN BECKER.
John Becker said:
'sThe amount OF business which we
did in 81, so far as we have been able
to determine, shows very considerable
increase over the previous year. Christ
mas week was the best we have expert
enced since l have been in business.
There was a noticeable demand for dia-
monds and fancy articles, as we'll as the
high priced goods, which made the ag-
gregate receipts for the year reach a
larger sum than ever before"
j. W. GRUBB.
J. W. Grub, said:
1.-THE iewelry business has been on
the increase this year, and particularly
in the line OF diamonds. We sold out
almost the entire stock here during the
holiday season. One thing that has
helped the jewelrY business along with
other lines of trade is the new motor
line to Martins Ferry. You would be
surprised at the munger OF people from
that town who have traded here during
the past month. Another thing that
tends to bring people to this town is the
large advertising OF the installment and
other houses. / believe there has been
more out-of-town trade here this year
than for many years. When they come
to an installment house they generally
call into other stores before they leave,
and it all helps general business.

Charles Hancher said:
1--WE have not had more prosperous

every month has been ahead Of the cor

Cant say that we are much ahead OF

different nature. We have sold more

profits we used to get"
