POTTERY SITUATION.
PORTION OF TIE SANITARY MEN OUT, AND
TEE OTHERS NAY FOLLOW.
The Differences at the La Belle Pottery Adjusted
Pleasan; Occasion Last Right-0hsr
Industrial News.

Last night one OF the REGISTER re-
porters saw members Of the manage
ment Of the Wheeling Pottery Co., and
nun bers of the workmen, aud they all
said that the news 10 yesterdays paper
relative to the situation At the two
plants was entirely correct in every
respect. The REGISTER is now enabled
to give the present situation at the La
Belle pottery and at the new sanitary
works.
a number OF the workmen OF the san
itary works quit WORK yesterday. Those
remaining will get all the material tin-
ished up this evening, and II settlement
is not reached before that time all the
men will go out on strike. As the
REGISTER stated, the men claim that
they are getting under pay for their
work, aud that on certain pieces the
sanitary workmen at other places get
one dollar where they only get eighty
five cents for the same anoultof work.
Yesterday morning committee from
among the sanitary workmen went TO
the offices OF the Company with tho
hope OF having en- Interview with Presi-
dent C. w. Franzhelm In regard to the
matter. Mr.. Franzheim had left the
city on business trip, and could not
be found. That Is the wav the matter
stands. The committee will see Mr..
Franzheim, who returned TO the city
last night, this morning, and II they
cannot make some arrangements tie
rest Of them will go out on strike this
evening. II is to be hoped, however,
this will not be necessary.
The sole disagreement az the La Belle,
and that which was about TO cause the
strike, was the Company introducing a
new shape for the men TO make. The
men put price on this shape, ard the
Company claimed that they could not
afford TO pay that and make any money
out OF it. The work men had made all
arrangements to strike Monday even
inc. 10 the morning, however, COM
mittee froa among The p2tters had an
interview with MIR, Franzheim in taa
Company's offices. The matter was
talked over, AID IL was decided by the
management TO rot make the shape In
the plant at all for the present. That
settles The matter, and the men Will
work on as usual. The result OF the
settlement caused general satisfaction.

POTrEEs REJOICE.
Royal Good limo at Menge 6 Howley's
Han, Last Night.

Royal Good limo at Menge s Howley's
Hall, Last Night.
Love Feast" would be about the
term which would apply to the big as
semblage Of Wheeling potters last
night, at McDge & Howley's hall at
Twenty third and Market streets.
There was over one hundred of the
workmen from all the four plants OF
the city there, and the potters OF the
city never before had a more jolly or
jovial time. They had good music, fine
singing, clog dancing, good fell
lowship, and to fill the bill big heaps
of refreshments. When one OF the as
semblage was asked TO sing, ne would
do it, and when asked to dance, he
would do likewise. and that was what
made the event one Of unusual pleasure.
The main reason Of the assemblage,
however, beside the love feast and Jolil-
fcation features, was the assem- olage OF
the workmen to show to Edward Menge
and Thomas Howley, the proprietors OF
Lu0 ldllt lhGt bhSJ
kindness to them during the long
strike. During the strike the potters
Of the city made their headquarters at
Menge 81 Howley's place.
When the hall was filled with the
guests, Thomas Wldolood, OF the War
wick, was chosen chairman, and John
Webster, secretary. Prof. Thomas
Pinkuss, the blind musician, rendered
some fine selections on the piano.
Charles Bourne was called, and In neat
words he made the presentation speech,
giving two elegant silver Ice pitchers
TO Msssrs. Menge 81 Howley. The
pitchers are beauties and came from
Lukens & Higgins, the jewellers, and 1t
it safe TO say that there is nothing OF
their kind hner in the city. On The
mementos are engraved the names OF
the receivers, and from whom they
came, the potters Of Wheeling. In
his address Mr. Bourne spoke OF the
Kindness Of Messrs. Mengs * Howley
20 them during the strike. Edward
Mengs responded TO the neat speech,

TIE PATRIOTIC DUTY
Which Every wheeling Citizen owes to
the state Fair.

Which Every wheeling Citizen owes to
the state Fair.
Every citizen OF Wheeling. be he
manufacturer, merchant, wage worker,
or citizen leading retired and quiet
life. owes it to himself and to his native
or adopted city to do all la his power 10
make success OF the coming State
Fair. And he can do this conscientious
| ly and without self reproach, because
the Association has never given an ex-
hibition which was not intrinsicly worth
two or three times the admission
charged. The racing programme alone,
during any afternoon OF any Fair OF the
series, has been well worth the visit to
the grounds by our citizens, or the
journey to the city by those residing In
other communities-to say nothing OF
the other attractions, and the always
varied and valuable displays made by
exhibitors in all departments.
But aside from these considerations, 1t
is the duty OF every resident OF Wheel
ing to do all in his power to advance the
general interests OF the Fair, because
the Fair is no mean factor in beneAtting
the community as whole. Ii brings
annually thousands Of strangers to the
city: il stimulates and encourages trade;
it sets stagnant money in circulation; II
spreads abroad the name and fame oil
our city, aud in many other ways con-
tributes, directly and Indirectly, 20 the
welfare and prosperity OF the commun.
| ity.
Therefore. our advice is, do all all you
can for the Fair Association. Your Ell.
fort, however humble IL may be. will be
as bread cast upon the waters, and you
and your native city will surely find IL
again, although il may be after many
DAYS.
