bad ne lived there would have been
al effort to stampede the conven-

which stands Idle below town. Here
they have good plant which would
need little or no change in order to

could get 20 work much sooner than

creek.
However it has not been settled
what they shall do, but the meeting
Of this afternoon is expected to de
termine their actions. They may
decide 10 rebuild the plant on the
former location.
Nothing new in connection with
the fire has Developed, and the origin
of it is still unknown.
Mr.. Brockett, OF the West Vir
GINA Plate Glass Company, says
that stock su hscrlptions to his plant
are coming ia to a very satisfactory
extent, but that nothing definite has
yet been decided about tins. The
weather having been so inclement
that many people who have intended
subscribing TO the stock have not
