dated, and as the agreement has not
yet been executed by all of the parties
concerned and new conditions imposed

porarily postpone the negotiations. We
also feel that We should satisfy our
selves by examination Of the Utah Cop

price fixed for Its shares In the consol-
idation agreement is just and fair to
the stockholders of the Boston Consol-
dated company In view of the changed
and greatly improved condition of it,

A better piece of news for Richmond

tive Company II was doubted whether the
branch would continue to run to its full
capacity. That doubt was laid to rest
by the efficiency and skill of the work

OF the Richmond works Is not only being
enlarged, but new field IS being de-
vcloped by building plant for manu-

Those who believe that the future
growth and prosperity OF this city de-
ponds solely upon Its manufactures should
draw great comfort from this proof OF
the fitness of Richmond and the repu-
tation OF Its workmen.

one OF the greatest Industries In the
