attended the meeting Of the National
Boot and Shoe Manufacturers Assoeia-

In a circular to shareholders, the
secretary of the John Wright and Eagle
Range Company says. FOR some con-
siderable time past your directors have
felt that if union of interests among
some OF the principal gas stove makers
could be arranged, it would be greatly
in tho interests of the shareholders
and Of the industry. 1t is believed that
this union of interests will enable the
companies concerned to carry on their
manufacture on more economical lines
by reducing the great competitive ex-
penses entailed in this trade, con-
centration of energy, saving of dupl-
cation in the heavy manufacturing ex-
pcnses involved in producing the type
of goods made by the interested com
panies. mass production with greater
output and standardization of parts.
with a view to lower production costs,
and also as means of checking rises
in selling prices. 1t is anticipated that
these arrangements Will result, not in
increasing the amount of the distribu-
tions on the shares SO much as in the
consolidating of the industry in the
interests both Of the manufacturers
and of the purchasers of their produc-
tiOns."

CITIZENS PROTEST
OVER NIGHT HAULING

Citizens on North Tenth street, from
Clay north to the end. are up In arms
against the United States government,
the city Of Richmond. and the off
cials at City Hall
The cause Of II Is that the city Of
facials have permitted the contractor
who Is doing the excavation for the
proposed Federal Reserve bank. al
Franklin and Ninth streets. to run
rcugh-s hod over the street, north OF
Cay. in dumbing the earth taken from
the site. on the Tenth street dump. The
excavating company uses half dozen
auto trucks in disposing OF the dirt
These trucks use Tenth street both in
going and coming. all day and all
night. The trucks are ''unmuffled
and create noise closely resembling a
freight train going through cut at
eighty miles an hour.
The street. being a dirt roadway, IL
torn into holes. while the compare
lively new guttering has been badly
damaged. as can be seen by any one
who will take the trouble to look at it,
But the principal kick the citizens
make Is that the trucks with their
unearthly noise. keep them awake all
right long. They ask the contractor
work at night They want to know II
the government Is In such a hurry for
the building that the rest and comfort
OF several hundred citizens 10 to be
sacrificed.
The city officials say they have done
everything possible to minimize the
trouble. but the fact remains that the
trucks are still going incessAntly
through the street creating the UNI
bearable noise. and causing much dis
tress.
1t IL pointed out by the residents Of
that section that 1t 10 hospital and
boarding house section. and that the
people must get some sleep. If the
night work could be cut out, the citi-
gems say they can stand the day noise.
A petition signed by every one In
that section was sent to the mayor,
public safety. who said he would do
who turned II over to the director OF
what he could In tho promises.
It IL probable the coptractors will
agree to cut out the night work on the
building and devote their energies and
activities to the completion Of the job
In the daylight hours.
