GLASS TAKES A DROP III PRICE

HARDWARE MEN REPORT A FALL OF FROM 15 TO 25 PERCENT. MANY ARE PLACING ORDERS Per the Article Whils it is DownReason Given That the Demand is Small. Hardware men report a big drop in the price of glass within the past month, and all grades are selling for from 15 to 25 percent cheaper than they did last fall. The price of glass has been going down steadily for several weeks, and it is thought that is has now reached its lowest point. Many contractors and greenhouse owners and others who have use for a great deal of glass are now placing their orderh in order to take advantage of the low prices. The drop does not apply particularly to plate glass, but to "blown" plass, of single and double strength, like that used in ordinary windows. The winter demand has been small, and that has caused the drop in price. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS. Edward Ramler and wife to Anna E. Thomas, lots 4 and 5 in Hittles Add .$1480 William McMahon to Cora B.

SLUGGISH DEALING FEATURED STOCKS

PRICE MOVEMENTS DULL IN EITHER DIRECTION, DECLINES PREDOMINATING. .. STOCKS THAT SUCCUMBED To Pressure at Outset Were Reached by Buying Orders and Some Recoveries Resulted. New York, February 14. Aside from a few prominent features, the dealings at the opening of the stock market were small and the movement of prices sluggish in either direction, with declines, predominating. Realizing in Amalgamated Copper brought out 6,000 shares, which were sold at 116 to 115!k, compared with 116 last night, and Anaconda ran off 62 on varying quotations. Buying orders were reached in the stocks that had succumbed to pressure at the outset, and there were pretty general recoveries. Confident "buying of the Hill stocks and Reading assisted materially in improving the general tone of the market. Anaconda rallied 7 points to above yesterday's closing and Amalgamated Copper 1. The more active features were sold to take profits on the recovery and the market yielded to about the lowest again. List Carried Down. The decline s carried Union Pacific Southern Railway preferred and National Lead a point under last night. An active demand sprang up for Southern Railway, which carried it up a point and Louisville and Nashville gained 2. Northern Pacific extended its rise to 32 ' The general list remained sluggish and dull. Aggressive operations on either side of the market were confined to a few stocks with slight effect on the general list. A demand for Union Pacific on the dividend declaration and an upward spurt in New York Central carried them up a point each, but their gains were lost when the entire market yielded sharply on the large gold engagements to Argentina. Amalgamated Copper fell back 2i8. NEW YORK STOCKS. (Furnished by O. G. Murray.) open Amal. Copper .116 Am. C. & F. pfd 46 Am. Locomotive 742 Am. Smelt. & Rfg 164 Am.
