THEMA	Firmendarstellung
TEXT	Among the representative houses in New York in the fur and trimming trade the name of Martin Bates, Jr., & Co. has for nearly half a century occupied a high and honorable position. The house is widely known and acknowledged to be one of the staunchest and most reliable in the city. The business conducted is exclusively in the line of hatters' and furriers' goods. The warehouse occupied by this firm, at Nos. 80 and 82 Green Street, is large and spacious, having a frontage of fifty feet by one hundred And seventy-five feet deep, and is admirably and conveniently arranged for storage purposes, and to facilitate inspection, and is completely fitted throughout for the prompt transaction of the immense business conducted. As might naturally be expected after the lengthened experience of more than forty years, the development of this trade has reached a fabulous proportion. The same is not confined to any given limited extent of territory, but extends all over the length and breadth of the United States. Messrs. Martin Bates, Jr., & Co. are known on the one hand as a sagacious and strictly conservative firm, and on the other as liberal and progressive in all the concerns of their vast interests. It is a correct report to pronounce them the representative American house in hatters' furs and trimmings. As such in the pages of this historical review of the trade we are pleased to record them.
