Election of Officers.
Last night the annual meeting OF the
chamber OF commerce OF Wheeling was
held at the rooms In the Hub building
that Is. some OF the members met, but
as there was not q quorum present the
election of officers was dispensed with
and the presen: officers. President Hui
Than Quarter and Secretary Howard
Hazlett, hold over for another
year. As both officials are energetic
and unremittIng in their care Of the
interests the body loses moth
Ing in rot holding an election. Last
fall President Quarter announced that
he would be unable TO accept the office
this year, but since then he has recon-
sldered, greatly to the pleasure OF his
many friends in commercial Wheeling.
AS to Mr. Eazlett 1t wouldn't be possi-
bic to secure as efficient n secretary.
4 There was np business OF especial i'm
portance for transaction last niHht. Mr..
Frank C. Caldwell had i resolution
making the Ohio Valley Manufacturer

Possibly few people here. realize the

nation Of the several Industrial con-
solicitations. some of which are already
completed and others under way, in
which plants In the Greater Wheeling
district are Interested. It Is learned
!yupon the best OF authority that the tre-
I mendous sum, of S2,O0o,OOo in cold cash
will have been paid over to the stock
4 holders OF the several companies when
these deals are closed up. When the
UNITED States Glass Company several
years ago bought up Wheeiing's glass

Sblnes It Is different: they are putting

Sblnefh has paid over the money for the

mills In this district. and the people

Through are now working>o on a Besse-5
inner steel combine, and according to
Sreliable information have already Sc
cured an option on the plant. The
pottery combine has not yet closed its

POTTERY Company and Ohio Valley Chi

I. the deal will be closed and the money
paid over within the next ten days.
So,S altogether there are six large
