HOT RACE ON.
Railroads Hustle to Get Finish
ed First.


Two Trunk Lines to Join the Northern
and Southern Sections OF the State
into Closer Relation VIII be OF
Vast Benefit to Morgantown for
Many Reasons.
Morgantown now has renewed as
surance that she will soon be on a
railroad trunk line from Pittsburg
to Charleston. This promise has
been made in the past but nothing
has come of it until now. The line
will be completed in the near future
but how soon remains to be seen.
Thisroad may or may not be built
as soon as the one through from the
south of Elkins to a connection with
the G. and O. at Ronceverte.
The northern end OF the road is
completed to Sutton. On the south
the road has come from Charleston
to Clendennin and contract for
the extension of this to Big Otter a
distance of twelve miles has been
let. When this is done the remain
der of the road will require but a
short time to finish.
The road will then run through
from Pittsburg past Morgantown,
Fairmont, Clarksburg and thence to
Charleston. It will traverse rich
country in both coal and timber
and will be one Of great interest and
value to the state. The chances
are that it will be the first one to be
completed through the center of the
state binding the north and south
sections of the commonwealth to-
gether
On the east road is pushing
through from Elkins to join the ex-
tension from the G. d @ which has
started at Ronceyefte and which has
been completed for 81 miles up the
Greenbrier. This road will also open
up a very rich section of the state
which up to this time has not been
developed particle and which is
virgin to the promoter.
1t will be a nip and tuck race be-
tween these roads as to which OF
them is finished and ready for bust
ness first. They will be of vast ben
eft to US and will enable people get
form here to the lower end of the
state or vice versa with one days
travel. 1t will result in great III
crease in the attendance at the
state University and if for no other
reason than that it will bring many
dollars into this city.

The stockholders of the Seneca
Class Company on Thursday after
! noon held their annual meeting.
They elected the old directors and de.
clared dividend of seven per cent.
/ This is the first dividend declared
BY the company for some time.
Every thing about the plant was
found to be in fine condition and
the stockholders were very much
kpleased with the outlook.
Work in both the plants here will
be resumed on next Monday after
two weeks shut down. The glass
workers who have been away enjoy
ing their vacations have begun to
gather back and they will be ready
to take up the task on Monday.
They have been having a very
Pill asant time during the breathing
D spell and Will be able to make more
and better time than they did before
4 they got a rest. The Morgantown
plant will enjoy a large additional
force of hands. They have just fin
ished their new furnace and will be
able to turn out twice the amount OF
glass that they did before it's cree
ton.
Orders have been pouring into the
company and they have had hard
work to keep up with the flood Of
orders, There will be large mum
Der of houses needed for the new
men who will be brought here for
this purpose.
Work has not yet started on the
new window glass plant although
everything is in readiness for the
start except the raising Of the mon
ey necessary to grade the site for
their use. Until this is raised moth
inc will be done. Morgantown bust
ness men owe il 30 themselves to see
that the work is not longer de-
layed on their account.
Grading has begun on the new
Bath Tub plant at Point Marion
which is being built by Morgantown
and Uniontown capital. There viii
be large force of men employed in
this plant. 1t is located on the riv
er south Of the old plant at Point
Marion 1t will make greater
scarcity in that town than has here
tofore been experienced. This has
been a disturbing factor in the
growth of this town and will have
to be remedied before the advantages
of the location of new plants can be
reaped to the fullest extent.
Flint Glass Workers in conyen.
tion have decided to demand ten
per cent advance in the prices which
are now being paid them. The man
ufacturers are expected to grant the
demand as they cannot afford to risk
