TEXTThe numerous extensive buildings in the most prominent leading business street of the city, their superior and elegant finish, the style of their equipments and cost of their fittings, at once attest the prominence which the clothing industry ofNewark has acquired. Twenty years ago Messrs. Marshall & Ball commenced business and opened their fine establishment at Nos. 807, 809, and 811 Broad Street, a three-story building of 50x100 feet in extent, and all the floors being utilized. In addition to these large premises, there is a factory for the making up of garments on Green Street, in which over one hundred experienced operators are employed and forty hands find constant work in all the departrnents of the Broad Street house. From these facts the extensive trade that is carried on by this enterprising house may be readily inferred. In addition to their Newark premises, Messrs. Marshall & Ball have large branch houses in Jersey City and Paterson, N. J. The Broad Street premises present an elegant and cheerful appearance at night from the style of their fittings and under the effect of three electric lights. Customers can inspect the goods just the same after dark as in the noonday. Every article disposed of is cut and made by the house, and each department is under the most skillful management. A large custom trade is carried on and parties have the option of making their own selection from the extensive stock of piece goods, cloths, and cassimeres, foreign and domestic, with which their counters are crowded. An immense stock of ready-made clothing of every style and grade in finish and pattern is kept on hand. Sales are very extensive, the trade extending throughout this entire section. The members of the firm are James Marshall and J. Ball, both natives of this county and gentlemen of thorough business experience, extensively known and highly esteemed, who have done much in their own individuality to advance the industries of Newark city and trade generally in other sections of the State.
