Window Glass Men Combine.

Anderson, Ind., Aug. 15.—At a meet ing of manufacturers yesterday supplementary to the state meeting of Tuesday the final arrangement was made for the reorganization of the Indiana window glass trust which was organized with the twelve companies two months ago, and in that time, controlling 350,000 of the 380,000 boxes, has raised the price of glass over the nation 25 per cent. By the arrangement every one of the plants in the state, which are practically all west of Pittsburg, were taken in. This makes the combination solid and able to control the market in the future. The volume of business it will do is about $8,000,000 annually. The manufacturers will have headquarters at Muncie and will meet in that city on Tuesday to re-elect officers.
