II Is whispered I'm local mill circles that
the American woolen company is TO alb
sorb the Atlantic mills This, like most all
other mill news is difficult work to con-
nrm. for none who are said TO be inter
ested In the deal will utter a word In re-
lation 20 the matter.
AS near as can be learned the American
Woolen company has made an offer for
the mill and the same is now being con-
sidered.
The American Woolen company has al
ways been short OF Just such yarn for It's
mills as the Atlantic produces and, II IS
for this purpose. that the plant Is wanted.

the Atlantic mills has caused NUMBER
OF well known mill men TO think that
there is something out OF the ordinary In
the wind
The news is not very pleasing TO the
majority OF the merchants OF the place,
for they do not think that the American
Wooden company is as liberal 20 the help
ss might be. Nor ~ the help as contented
as when the mills were independent
