GLASS FACTOR Y FIRE
MA Y END ON NAY ]

VI 3 j b
Pittsbnrg Plate Glass officials point
out the fact that stae company is nov
running half capacity. which proves
that the American is not the only
large concern which believes in the
necessity OF curtailing production at
present.
From sources intimately in toch
with the local condition 1t is learned
that there is a very strong tendency
all over the southwestern district to
either block fires now or shorten the
season materially The prevailing
opinion seems to be that it will be
wise TO close the fire May 1.
II is deemed entirely probable that
plants in the middle West and lcas.
will also take early steps to curtail
the production.
In spite of this apparently discoui'-
aging outlook there Is considerable
window glass being sold in the. do
nestle market, and a slowly but stead
lily Increasing amount, for export.
Within the last three weeks over
$4,000 boxes have been sold TO the
representative OF a large English t1rin
The good news has also been re-
,celved that much of this has been or
soon will be placed aboard ships and
started to It's destination. The load

with window glass manufacturers In

NEW RI JSSIAN
At A OK MADE
NO EXTRA SESSION
0fthe Senate is to Be Called by
President Wilson to Con-
slider Two Treaties.

\. WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. 81
President Wilson has practically de-
scided not to call a special session Of
the Senate to consider the Colombian
and Nicarangan treaties. At the
White House today It was said that
while the question still was under
conside deration there were little pros
poets of special session being
called.
The opposition OF some Republican
senators makes 1t improbable that
any action on the treaties can be
taken during the present session.
The president expects, however, that
at least some of his nominees for the
federal trade commission will be con-
firmed before March A.. Any not con-
tirmed are expected to get recess ap-
Dointments.
