A STRAWBOARD COMBINE
Formed, With a Capital Stock of
S5OOOOOO

Akron. O., March 2-There was prac-
ticaIly closed in this city today a deal for
sfg Wboard fsotore in the country III
H. Binnian of Peoria, Ill, is the chief
promoter of the new combine and gave out
some of the schemes. There are only half
a dozen mills outside of the American
Strawboard company, the principal ones
being a St. Marys, O.; Gas City, Ind.
and New Philadelphia, O. Most of the
stock in these concerns is held in this city.
Mr.. Binnian states that the new company,
