THE GLASS MARKET. 



« The jobbers of American window 

 glass report a fairly active business in 

 greenhouse sizes. Prices are lower than 

 usual, Especially at this season of the 

 year. The lowest price is usually in 

 winter, with periodical advances as 

 spring and summer approach, but this 

 year the advances have not come, ex- 

 cept as periodical recoveries from dips 

 in the market. There is no over-supply 

 of the popular greenhouse sizes, espe- 

 cially of 20-inch glass, but the abund- 

 ance of small commercial glass has 

 operated to disturb the market for all 

 other glass. The trade is just now in- 

 terested in a bond issue of several mil- 

 lions of dollars by the American Win- 

 dow Glass Machine Co., which looks as 

 though the trust were getting ready to 

 go into the manufacture of glass mak- 

 ing machines on a large scale.
