THEMABeschreibung
TEXTDealers in wool and sheep skins at 138 to 144 Fourteenth Street, Jersey City, are the successors to John Malone and William Everett who established this business in the Claremont section of Jersey City in 1882. They remained there for eight years, and then erected the present premises, taking possession in 1891. John Malone, of the firm, died in 1903, and his son, James C. Malone assumed his interest under the firm name of Everett & Malone. They occupy a four-story brick building extending to Fifteenth Street and connected with the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad, equipped with all the recent modern machinery suitable to their enterprise, operated by steam power and also have a spur from the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad. They give employment to from ninety to one hundred men and do a large wholesale business throughout this section of the country, their annual expenses amounting to $500.000. They buy lamb and sheep skins from wholesale butchers of New York, Jersey City and other points, scrub and clean the skins thoroughly, putting them through a form of liming to loosen the wool, which is then easily removed, when it is dyed and graded and sold in bales to woolen manufacturers principally in New England. As many as fifteen different grades of wool are made. When the wool is removed from the skins they are put through a liming process for six days which thoroughly cleanses them, when they are "pickled" and undergo other technical processes which render them white and clean, when they are graded and sold to tanners throughout the United States who deal in fancy leathers used for pocketbooks, belts, etc. Over half a million sheep and lamb skins are dealt in annually. The business is managed by James C. Malone, who is a member of the Board of Trade of Jersey City. He is a native of New York City and resides at 164 Jewett Avenue, Jersey City. He is a prominent citizen here, a member of the Knights of Columbus and the Catholic Club of Jersey City. Mr. Everett is a widely known resident of Jersey City and is a wholesale butcher at the Jersey City Stock Yards. He is a man of marked business ability, full of push and enterprise. Mr. Malone practically grew up in the business and knows every portion of it. On January 1st, 1909, Mr. Everett retired from the business, with which he had been connected for twenty-eight years. During and dating from his connection with the firm there were no partnership papers drawn, the business being carried on
from the beginning with only a verbal agreement without the slightest friction. The manufacture of cotton and wool is the basis of the great textile wealth of this country, employing an immense army of operatives and involving many millions of dollars. The old-established house that is the subject of this sketch is one of the most prominent in the country in the handling of wool. Mr. Malone was brought up in the business, and is, therefore, in a position to thoroughly understand it, so that the personal attention that he constantly gives it is of great value. He employs only skilled assistants, and the result is only first-class work. Mr. Malone gives careful attention to every detail and to the maintenance of the very highest standard of labor. He is an energetic business man whose success is well-earned, and never fails to interest himself in civic matters, taking an active part in all matters for civic betterment and contributing his time and money where necessary. His Jewett Avenue residence is one of the most impressive and characteristic in the Bergen section, and has done much to improve the block in which it is located. It is of modern architecture and by far the finest residential property on one of the foremost home throughfares of the Bergen section.
