Situation Materially.

proposition for the sale of the
plant of the Janney Manufacturing Co.,
in this city, to George B. and Frank
w. Simmons will be made today to
the stockholders Of the Janney Manu-
featuring Co., at Columbus, Ind, by
G. G. Janney, and If it meets with the
acceptance which Is expected the
present Janney plant will be in the fu-
ture the home Of the American Mining
Tool Co., the concern which the Sim
mons brothers are bringing to Ottum-
wa. G. G. Janney left late last night
for Columbus, to secure the necessary
legal authority from the stockholders
to make the sale reality. a. tenta-
tive contract was closed for the sale
last night.
Two Concerns May Use Plant.
The American Mining Tool Co. does
not need all the room which the Jan
ney plant will place at its disposal but
the Messrs. Simmons prefer to buy a
plant rather than to delay moving to
Ottumwa long enough to build. Their
present plant at What Cheer will be
vacated during the next few months
and by the time their busy manufac-
turing season begins they will be
ready for 1t in new quarters. AS the
buildings are larger than their real
needs require, they may share it with
some other concern, though as yet no
negotiations are in progress to that
end.
Plant in Courts Hands.
At present the Janney plant is in
the hands Of the Wapello county dis
trict court and cannot be disposed Of
without court order. This is the re-
suit Of the case which is to be filed
not later than March g. by the Royal
Stove & Range Co. of Greenville Ohio.
against the Janney company for fall
ure to comply with the agreement of
Mr.. Janney for his company and repre-
later repudiated by the preferred
stockholders Of the former concern.
However, this matter may be cleared
up by the deal at present in progress,
inasmuch as arrangements may be
made by the Royal Stove & Range
Coand the Simmons concern to occupy
the Janney plant together. It Is
thought that this plan will be practic.
able and Mr.. Simmons announced
today that they are willing to share
the plant with any other concern If
arrangements as to space can be made.
Instead of putting an end to the pos
sibilities of Ottumwa securing the
factory of the Royal Stove & Range
Co., then the deal at present in
progress with the Simmons firm will
clear the situation materially and will
doubtless mean the housing of two
manufacturing concerns under the
same roof. Such an arrangement, If
brought to completion, will not be in
the nature Of a partnership. Both
companies will conduct their affairs
separately, but the plant will simply
be divided as best fits the needs of the
occupants.
