At meeting of the directors OF the
Board of Trade held last evening at
$50 O'Clock in the Board chambers,
the matter of the Conradsen Turret
Lathe Company was fully discussed,
The new company is to be called the
American Turret Lathe Company and
Ia intended to succeed and absorb the
company of that name now located at
Wilmington, Del, and controlled by
Mr. Conradsen, who thinks Wheeling
to be a better location for the enlarged
works, made necessary by the orders
coming in for the new lathes from all
parts of the world. The securities to
be issued are as follows: Capital stock,
$3.50, 900; bonds, 100000. OF this sum,
he wishes to dispose Of the bonds and
$50, 900 in stock to the citizens Of
Wheeling. II this be done and free
site OF five acres be furnished, he agrees
to locate the plant in this neighbor-
hood.
Secretary Adams, at the request of
President Laughlin, of the Board, read
a full statement of Mr.. COnradsen's
proposal in detail, printed copies of
which were circulated among those
present.
President Laughlin heartily endorses
the plan and win subscribe for good
block of the stock. The matter was

cash and royalty of TX per cent. for
a right to control the manufacture OF
these lathes in Germany. A large Or
der is being closed in England, and tho
present works cannot supply the Amer
ican orders for the lathes. Mr.. Con-
radsen stated last night that he was
not looking for orders just now. but
for facilities for filing those now on
hand.
It looks now as II the factory would
be established here.
