OUTLOOK BRIGHTER.
Factories Starting up in all Sections o.
the City.

Factories Starting up in all Sections Of
the City.
A reporter for the REGISTER took a
round of the factories of the city yes
terday, to get the opinions Of manufac-
turers as to the outlook and condition
of trade. The result was encouraging,
as the general opinion prevails that
every day things are getting brighter.
Particularly is this noticed within the
last week. Orders have been coming In
more steadily, and larger shipments
have been made than any week
for the last two months.
Though in several of the
industrial establishments In the city re-
ductions have been made IL is stated
that this should not be regarded with
alarm, as the majority OF persons inter-
viewed stated that these reductions
would not be permanent. Thus far, in
every instance, the workingmen nave
taken these lessenings Of their earnings
in a philosophical way, and have de-
cided TO remain at work.
The West Virginia Tobacco Company
has not had steady run for some
time, but this week the entire plant has
been on in full. With the company
things are Frightening every day. They
porous run is looked for.
Notwithstanding the times, promi-
u ent manufacturers Of the city regard
the outlook encouraging enough to con-
template placing In operation large
brass foundry in the city. Several
sites have been visited, among them a
norton of the "Red Letter" plant In
East Wheeling. Some of the persons
at the back OF the movement have had
forty years experience in manufactur-
ing in Wheeling.
Large amounts Of coal are being trans
ferred by the city railways. Every
mine along the Panhandle is again In
operation. This materially effects
trade here.
Seven weeks ago the big factory Of
the Wheeling Hinge Company, employ
ing $50 persons, closed down. One-third
of the plant has again been started,
with the probability that the remainder
will resume at no distant date.
Geo. h. McMechen & SoEs plant IS
going the brlskest way possible. Every
employe is given steady work and extra
time is being name. Large shipments
South and East have been made this
week.
A large number of lsborers went to
work yesterday at the Riverside iron
works 70 get the plant ready for resum-
ing operations next Monday. Still more
men willgo 10 work to-day preparing for
a-start. Notices have been posted in
the tube works department that >
portion OF the bell-weld division will
also resume next Monday. The parts OF
the entire plant on next Monday will
be: the steel works, mills A and 8, Of
the plate mill, and the butt weld and
the beIl-weld, and portion Of the other
necessary furnaces, in the tube works.
For six weeks Hoffman's tanneFy on
the South Side. has been running In
few departments. The entire plant,
employing nearly five hundred per-
sons, has resumed in full. This start
was unexpected By the employees and
they are greatly delighted over IL.

ENCOURAGING OUTLOOK
For a FIattering success ut the First state
L. A W. Meet.


Every day the prospects for the COM
inc meet and races under tho auspices
Of the Wheeling Athletic Wheelmen, to
take place next Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday, grow brighter; All that is
necessary now Is thai TIE weather prove
favorable. The arrangements Tor the
meet and races are now almost com
petsd. Entries for state championship
and open races will close tonight at
midnight. Last evening there were two
more entries for all the open and
championship events, those Of Henry
and Max Mahlke. Hal Hawkins enter
ed the novice race. These arc Monn-
tain State club boys, and they will en-
deayor 10 show their brethren Of the
w, A. w. how 1t looks and feels to be
tail enders. Henry Mahlke's friends
expect TO see him carry of tirsts In two
or three OF state championship events.
One of the most attract We features OF
the races on Tuesday and Wednesday
afternoons will be the trick riding by
hluIbH hduhuIs VI CtANihhHN'f WH"hA
the local boys were fortunate enough to
secure. Hanaur is as good trick rider
as there Is In the country, and performs
some marvellous and almost incredible
feats on the ordinary and safety patterns
OF bicycles. lie will do trick riding be-
tween each race.
The wheelmen have decided TO create
an innovation in the line OF march for
their street demonstration which takes
place Tuesday morning. 1t Is usual for
parades 10 go on the South Side only TO
Twenty-fOurth street. In fact the
wheelmen originally intended 20 go only
to Twenty-sixth, but at meeting last
night 1t was decided that the line OF
march be extended down to the county
line at Forty-sighth street. This surely
ought TO gladden. the hearts OF the
down trodden residents OF the lower
end OF the city.
The boys race is being looked after
by Mr.. c. y. Van Keuren, who will re-
ceive entries at his place on Twelfth
street. Already number Of youthful
wheelmen have entered.

A Savannah Man Has a Talk With

Corbett, the champion pugilist, who is
to appear at the theater tonight in con-
junction with a vaudeville company, will
give an exhibition at the Augusta Expo

from Augusta to Savannah in order to
bring the champion here.
A Savannah man, who saw Corbett IN
Macon the other day, SAYS he looks in the
pink of condition. His muscles stand out
ike whlpcords, and he is the perfect
model of an athlete. To look at Corbett,
be is the last man in the world one would
take for a pugilist, but when he begins TO
move one Immediately notices that he is
as quick as cat, and moves with remark
able quickness. He has deep-set eye,
and every feature of his face shows
logged determination, and yet when his
face is in repose, he is a fine looking fell
low. He is not the typical bruiser one
expects to see, but reminds one of we'll
