IS
tLJnanimfty Of Opinion Pre-
walls in Glass CIRCLES and
Will Continue.

PaTTsBuRG, pa, Sept. 24-The
/ Com lnoner and Glassworker says no
material change has been noted In
the window glass market during the
last week. except that there Is a
slight improved demand In evidence.
PRODUCTION Is practically at stand
I; still and general resumption VIII nos
take place befoEe October Is. in nc
cordance with the provisions Of the
Detroit wage scale. There is more
unanimfty of opinion noticeable in
the window glass trade at present
than for many years and all indica-
tions point to continuance of pres
ent conditions next season.
The amount OF glass In the hands
OF manufacturers and dealers is
away below the amount usually car
ried at this time OF the year and this
condition pressages healthy market
during the balance of the year. In
addition, the start this year will be
later than last, which will also tend
to add strength to the market. At
fairs in general are in excellent
shape throughout the trade, so that
the element of doubt. which is usual
ly such a large factor in window
glass matters, has been practically
eliminated.
The price advance mentioned last
week was per cent on an except the
first three brackets. No official an
nouncement of similar action has yet
been made by the American, but
there is strong probability that
quotations will be promulgated to
meet the new figures.

Is Alleged But Justice Fines
Defendant for Disorder

complained to Policeman sappington
Friday night that Fred Morris, an
oil well driller. with whom he spent
a part Of the evening. had robbed
him of 81 near the corner of North
Fourth and baltimore streets. Nor
ris was arrested and jailed. Satur-
day morning Mayor Moore turned
the case over to Justice w. P. Camp
winehern made complaint before the
justice but it appeared to the latter
that both complainant and defendant
had been on spree and that it
would be a difficult matter to prove
any robbery, so he fined Morris 81
and costs for disorderly conduct,
amounting in all to $3.50. Morris
paid that amount and was released

YOUTHFUL BLACK
MAILER FINED.
Atlanta Boy Who Threatened Asa
G. Gambler Convicted.

Atlanta, Ca, March 29.-Danie]
". johnson, Jr, "the boy black
Mailer" was fined $3.50 to-day in
the United States District Court,
after pleading guilty to sending
threatening letters through the mails
to Asa G.. Gambler, a wealthy At
lanta banker, in which he demanded
that $4,000 be left at a secluded
spot named.
Considerable excitement was Gre
ated in April, a year ago, when it
became known that Mr.. Gambler had
received several letters demanding
large cash sum and threatening to
dynamite his handsome residence if
the money was not forthcoming.
When postohice inspectors fastened
the crime upon johnson, II years old,
and a former member Of Gamblers s
Sunday school class, the latter i'm
mediately took steps to have the
Federal authorities drop the case,
but in this he failed. His brother,
however, appeared in court to-day
and made request for leniency. The
fine was paid by Johnson's father.
