| THEMA | Beschreibung |
| TEXT | One of the oldest in the State. These works were established 35 years ago by B. A. Falmestock, succeeded subsquently by Falmestock, Hazlett & Schwardtz, and acquired finally by the present proprietors in 1875. The works are situated in Allegheny City and rank only second in size and importance to any in the country. They cover 3/4 of an acre, with a producing capacity of 1.500 to 2.000 tons annually and are furnished with steam engines, boilers and all the latest and best machinery used in the manufacture of White Lead. Thirty hands are employed at the factory and four clerks and salesmen in other departments, entailing an outlay of not less than $350 per week. The vested capital is 125.000 and the business amounts to 250.000 annually. The members of the firm are Messrs. C. F. Wells, S. Beymer, R. F. Bauman and Wm. Steinmeyer, men of public enterprise and spirit. The trade of the House extends to all parts of the country, and its product is highly esteemed for its unvarying purity and long established reputation for general excellence. This House stands second to none, and enjoys, in a marked degree, the confidence and respect of those with whom they establish business relations. |
