Special to the Indianapolis Journal
ALEXANDRIA, Ind, Jan. 19.-The state
ment published in this mornings paper that
the Kelly Axe COmpany's plant, of this
city, had been secured by Charleston, w.
", created little surprise here, as deal OF
some kind has been known 10 have been on
for over a month. and while it was not
known TO a certainty that sale would
cause the city loss Of the factory, it was
generally expected that it would.
The plant has had fuel troubles for al
most a year since the company sold its
thirty-one gas wells to the Robyne Oil Co.,
and since which time the plant has been
buying gas by meter at cents 9 thousand.
To cut down some of this expense both oil
and coal were tried. While they worked
successfully, the economy was lacking in
view of which a removal of the plant was
believed to be good business policy.
The plant was established by the Kellys
in Louisville, twenty-eght or thirty years
ago. and has steadily grown TO present pro-
portions, employing 500 men the year
round, and at full capacity turning OFT
10000 axes daily, besides a large product in
scythe and cradle blades, which department
was added two years ago. In August, 1900,
the factory was almost destroyed by fire.

night from Pittsburg and assisted by

workers-blowers. cutters, gatherers and

ture idleness of the men. Mr.. St Peter
and his assistant bore with them to Marion
$4,000, which sum will go to the glass
workers of Indiana as a starter for the flu
ture distribution of benefits.
Mr. St. Peter. in an interview with the
Journal. predicted that all the. window
houses in Indiana will be working within
the next fifteen or twenty days under the
Philadelphia wage scale. He said the glass
business is looking up and that prospects
are better than at any time in the last six
months.
PITTSBURG, Jan. 19.-The determination
of the window glass workers in the noun
tain district OF Pennsylvania TO insist on
the Philadelphia wage agreement Is likely
TO bring about general suspension Of all
of the factories in that district for the
remainder of the present year. The manu-
facturers held meeting last Saturday and
asked the workmen TO be present and dis
cuss the situation. The men declined to
attend. The result of this was that six
owners of factories have decided to close
their works on Saturday.
