| TEXT | Few people realize the vast amount of money that is annually expended in the United States for packing-cases used in the storing and transportation of merchandise. The factory of D. J. Carroll alone consumed twelve million feet of lumber during the past year. This establishment is one of the largest of its kind in the United States. The business was established twenty-four years ago. The substantial buildings Nos, 202, 204, and 200 West Houston Street, having a frontage of sixty feet and depth of one hundred, six stories high, are occupied by Mr. Carroll. He employs forty competent workmen. The factory is equipped with the most approved machinery, aggregating a value of nearly one hundred thousand dollars. The motive power is supplied by a one-hundred-horse-power engine, and every facility for rapidly turning but first-class work. Nearly all the large cases used by the great piano-manufacturers for shipping their instruments are made by Mr. Carroll, who turns out an average of six hundred monthly. Mr. James Whalen is foreman of the works. He has been in charge here for the past fourteen years, and is a reliable and thoroughly experienced man. Mr. Carroll is a native of New York City; he is about thirty-eight years of age, and has had twenty-five years' experience in the business. He is an active, wide-awake, enterprising business man who looks after the interests of his customers, and has during his long business career made it his aim to furnish the best work at the lowest prices. His facilities for executing large orders are unequalled, and he is enjoying a well-merited share of prosperity. |
