vfously members or the union. and even II
they Joined now they would not be adj
mitted to the union deliberations. The
foremen refused. and every plasterer was
called out by the union. and thus the pre-
sent situation has been precipitated The
pfasterers' wages have never been so high,
probably averaging now IS cents an hour,
while many men who have struck in obe-
; dience to the union orders are skilled
workEen who have served the same firm
twenty years and are earning from fif-
teen dollars to twenty dollars a. week
in a country where the cost of living
is much less than in America The infat-
uation of the men may be further judged
from the fact that the whole weight of
serious official trade unionism is against
them, John Burns, for example. having
denounced their action, while even the So
cialist-Labor paper condemns their policy
as foolish and advises the union TO order
them back TO work.

STEUBENVILLE INDUSTRIAL,

Steubenville, o., Jan. 2S.-Glassworkers
here are interested in the outcome of eX-
periments being made at the Acme glass
works with chimney machine. The man.
agement has with reluctance begun the
experimenting with machines. as they
much prefer the continuance of the skilled
chimney blowers, who work in the factory
here; than whom there are no finer in the
United States, but the management know
that if other manufacturers are forced
into the use of the chimney machine they
Will be driven to it's use, and to determine
the efficiency and perfection of the vari-
Gus machines they are experimenting.
Many other manufacturers are trying the
machine so as to be ready to adapt them
selves when the day for machines comes
on them. l am informed that chimney
machines are not perfect in all particu-
lars and it will take time to put them on
the plane to turn out as fine chmheys as
the Offhand blowers. The machine is re-
garded as an experiment as yet. 1t will
take good men to operate them and make
good results, and this demonstrates that
the day of the chimney blowing trade is
not at an end yet. The efficiency of Acme
chimney blowers is known to the glass
manufacturers, and Acme men are found
in all the chimney houses of this country
and Canada. Several have gone out to re-
sponsible positions, among them Henry
Schnellbach, Harry Schnellbach, Jno.
Branagan, Chas. McConaughy
James L. Raney, of Toronto, has secured
a patent on his sewer pipe trimmer and
cutter, which is a valuable addition to
modern sewer pipe machinery. There are
about forty of these machines in operation
in the various sewer pipe plants of the
country.
Mahon & Nicholson have broke ground
on a lot 32x1SO, on South Fourth street,
which they purchased lately and they will

in the town limits, and ten days will
see fifty more. On five lots covering
space Of about 250X120 feet there are
four rigs going up, with a meat mar
ket and restaurant almost touching
the derrick on one and dwelling on
side and barns on the other. The oil
from this field is pumped from the
station here to Jewett, thence to Tur-
keyfoot and thence to Parkersburg, or
eastern refinerieS as desired. Two
inch pipe was laid first, but as this
proved inadequate larger pipe was put
in. A large boarding house has been
erected on the Beatty property and
a three story hotel will soon be erect
ed on the Kearns land. There are
few houses here where there are not
roomers or boarders and the income
to citizens from this source is large.
Oil men have secured boarding along
the Panhandle for miles and the
same way along the Wheeling & Lake
Erie. Since the recent small fires
here the citizens see the seriousness
of the situation, and are Directing to
the admission of any more wells in
the town. The prospect for leasing
town lots is almost destroyed and
many deals have been declared off.
Many oil men hold to the opinion that
the field will not hold up any length
of time. There will be lively NUM-
cipal election here in April. The town
has a prohibition ordinance at present.
The element that is coming in favors
saloons, whereas the college people
and the citizens in general oppose
saloons. Speak easies" are in active
operation, and "bootlegging" is car
ried on extensively. Several Wheel
ing parties are here and DESTROYS of

John c., and Philip E. Rank, of Lon

and have commenced work rebuilding

Work on the building for the new

Frostburg, Nd, early in the spring. as
the weather will permit. 1t will be

The Baltimore and Ohio railroad
has made an offer TO the parties own
ing the burnt district at Oakland,
Md, to rent them the right of way

railroad will remove the high fence
which now prevents them from using
the railroad outlet.
The United States postal card fac
tory here has been busy shipping Gu
ban and International postal cards to
Cuba. The former costs one cent and
is for use in and between Cuba and
the United States, and the latter costs
two cents, and are for use between
Cuba and all other countries compOs
ing the International Postal Union.
Tall pine trees are being shipped
from Garrett county, Nd, to the sea-
board to be used as ship maStS.
The Baltimore and Ohio railroad
officials here have received orders to
place in first class condition two adj
ditional tracks between Piedmont and
Keyser, the distance being five miles.
The steel rails for same have been or
