ctidcncc on all sides that this city is
enjoying an cra of prosperity which,
according to hot manufacturers and
:othcrs in positions to judge, is likely
to continue for a considerable period
of time.
I For the first time in several years
some of the factories in this city are
running until late in the night. Sevcral
machine shops and some _of the fur
mauufactories are working until as
as cleven o'clock at night” while some
of the hat. factories are operating their
fbrming departments until eight or
ninc o‘clock at night.
Nearly every local hut factory is
doing a satisfactory business, with or.
tiers on hand for Immediate delivery
and many more on file to be filled in
thc future.
