A NEW INSULATOR COMPANY One Formed to Manufacture a Patent Glass Insulator at Hawley, PA The Harloe Insulator Co. was organized last week at Hawley, Pa., with a capitalization of $150,000. The Incorporators are: J. S. Walsh, president; William Gregg, vice president; Myron T. Snyder, treasurer; Marcus Tuttle, secretary; Morton Harloe, the inventor, general manager. Other stockholders are: P. J. Bower, Geo. S. Thompson, Hawley; Wilton S. Bloes and George E. Shay, two influential and wealthy business men of Peckville, Pa. The new company propose to manufacture Harloe's self-tying insulators and other glassware. A practical and satisfactory test was made last Tuesday of the insulator on one of the telephone lines. After the wire had been drawn to nearly a breaking strain it was cut and the line did not slip over one-sixteenth of an inch. This is considered by all who witnessed it a remarkable test. This insulator is patented in Germany, France, Canada and Great Britain. The corporation intend to erect a $25,000 plant just as soon as a building site is decided upon.
