| TEXT | In conveying to our readers some information with regard to the manufactures and resources of New York, and directing special attention to its numerous industries, some remarks with reference to the manufacture of shirts, shirt waists and underwear, may not be inappropriate. There are few enterprises that have made such rapid strides in recent years as that of Messrs. Hutchinson, Pierce & Co., and the demands caused by this prosperity have been the means of creating such establishments as that now under review. This house, which is one of the oldest in New York, was originally founded in 1840, and after some changes in name, the present firm of Messrs. Hutchinson, Pierce & Co. succeeded to the business. As an evidence to our readers of the magnitude of this establishment, we may state that the factories of the firm are located at Norwalk, Conn., and are without exception the most complete in this country or abroad, the machinery and appliances being the most modern and effective that can be Obtained, and in addition employment being furnished to one thousand skilled operatives. This regiment of employees is supplemented by a number of travelling salesmen, who prosecute the business of the house throughout the south and west. The speciality of the concern is the " Star Shirt,'' which for style, fit, finish and quality of material, bears the highest reputation in the trade and the public generally. The firm manufactures shirt waists and underwear, and everything in the way of linen collars and cuffs, and fine dress shirts. In consequence of the immense trade enjoyed by this establishment, the expenses of conducting it are lower than any similar house in the city, and all its operations receive the personal attention of the proprietors, which facts account In a great measure for the moderate prices charged for the stock. The individual members of this house are Messrs. G. S. Hutchinson, H. B. Pierce, Ira Cole and T. S. Morison, gentlemen of energy and enterprise, and who are held in the highest estimation in social and mercantile circles for their strict integrity and probity. The extent, variety, quality and character of the entire stock of this house, merit the attention of critical and prudent buyers, and the trade will find upon forming relations with Messrs. Hutchinson, Pierce & Co. many advantages difficult to be obtained elsewhere. |
