PRESIDENT LAUGHLIK
answers CRITICISM
OF THE BOARD OF TRADE con-
CONCERNING THE PROPOSED
NEW LAS FACTORY.
NO ENCOURAGEMENT GIVEN
To the Board In Its Efforts to secure
the Plant for Wh~eelipg-If wheel
Ing Capitalists Give Foreign Cities
the Preference IL VIII he Difhcuit
TO Induce TO Locate
Here.

The Register yesterday morning, In
an exclusive article concerning the new
glass factory. promoted by Captain
Muhteman and others. noted the fact
that the Wheeling Board of Trade was
being criticized because no effort was
made to induce the promoters to locate
the plant in Wheeling. The criticism
was based on the fact that most, II not
virtually all, of the capital was invest
ed by Wheeling men. and the promo
tiers were seeking a location in Bellaire,
The following letter anent the subject
will be read with general interest:
WHEELING, September l.
To the Editor of the Register.
Dear Sir;-Referring TO your criticism
OF the Wheeling Board of Trade regard
ing the proposed Muhleman Glass Works,
contained in the local olumns OF this
mornings paper. will say that a repre-
sentative of the Board of Trade inter
viewed Capt. Muhleman some time ago
TO the effect that the Board were anxious
To secure the proposed plant for Wheel
ing, and were willing to use their good
offices TO bring this about. but up To the
present time they have had no encour-
agement In this direction.
II the report is true that most OF the
stockholders of said company are Wheel
ing men, their i~nfluence-if used In behalf
of their ovn town-would undoubtedly Sc
cure the location OF this plant I'm this city.
II Wheeling capitalists give foreign cities
the preference In locating new enterprises,
IL Will be n difficult matter for the Board
of Trade to induce strangers to look TO
Wheeling for sites whom her own citizens
seek locations elsewhere.
Yours truly.
GEORGE A. LAUGHLIN.

CONSOLIDATION

VI Newspaper Properties Is Being
Dfscussed-News After the Intel
Iigencer.
In connection with the probable
change in ownership Of the Intelligen-
Ger, it is understood that the publishers
oil the News are very anxious to Sc
cure control of the property with a
view to the consolidation of the two
papers. One of the pricipal benefits to
be derived from such a consolidation
from the News standpoint would be the
use of the Associated Press service.
which that paper does not have at pres

1t is understood that some prominent
politicians are backing the News in It's
efforts to secure control of the prop

markst Review

New York, January 21.-The complete
recovery Of the stock market from the
rather alarming weakness shown during
the early hours of the trading this morn
ing was an astonishing demonstration OF
recuperative forcs. The speculative
liquidation at the opening was so violent
as to give an appearance OF semi.demoral-
isation In the market and the selling was
evidently forced by the wiping out OF
margins and the uncovering OF stop.loss
orders. Yet before the day closed the
general level of prices had risen above
Saturday and the last hour Of the market
showed an urgent and confident buying
movement In force. The early weakness
was the logical sequence Of ths course OF
the market last week and the general ap-
prehenslon that further reaction was
inevitable.
In a market in which extensive long
accounts exist this means that brokers.
in order to protect themselves, call for
additional security from their customers
for the extension OF margins. The oonse-
quence always is an unwiilingness or an
inability on the part OF many persons 10
supply further margins and an order 70
sell their holdings either to take what
profits are left or to save losses. The pro-
fe sionaI bear operators are able to judge
pretty snrswdIy OF the probable volume
of such orders. This purely technical In
fiuence In the market was reinforced this
morning by the feeling OF depression
common to all the 81 sfcurities markets oil
the world, over the approaching death OF
Queen viotoris. The death Of the q ueen
is not likely to have direot influence on
values OF securities, either here or abroad.
But the naturally conservative nature oil
capital is always apprehensive over
change in the order of things, and ex-
pressed itself by the selling of securities
The closing was firm ana at about the
best prices of the day. Further exports
