| TEXT | Among the various manufactures that distinguish New York as a trade centre there are some novel enterprises that arrest the attention of the careful observer and demand consideration in this work. Such, for illustration, is the enterprise of the "Railway Register Manufacturing Company," which has built up a trade and reputation for its registering machines and punches unsurpassed by any similar concern in this country or Europe. In consequence of the vast number of passengers on our railroads and horse-cars it became absolutely necessary to devise some method for the purpose of checking and marking the tickets, and as a protection against the acts of dishonest clerks, gatemen and conductors, the Railway Register Mfg. Company was organized in 1870, at Buffalo, N.Y., the following gentlemen, well known for their ability and integrity, being the officers and agents, viz.: President. James McCredie, Secretary and Treasurer, H. M. Watson, General Agents. Beadle & Courtney, No. Broadway. New York. The registers and punches manufactured by the company have obtained a world-wide fame, and are now used not only on all the railroads in the United States and Canada, but also in every country of the civilized world. They are known under the various names of the "Benton", "Chesterman", "Monitor", "Pond Register", "Hornum" and "Bell Punch" and are so ingeniously constructed that fraud is an absolute impossibility. There is no conceivable way by which clerks, gaternen and conductors can take advantage of these faithful registers, and hence it is that all companies and individuals who require a positive check are adopting the clever inventions of the Railway Register Mfg. Company. Mr. Edward Beadle is manager of the New York office, at No. 1193 Broadway, while Mr. John F. Courtney has charge of the Philadelphia office. No. 420 Walnut Street. Both of these gentlemen are held in the highest estimation by the community for their kind and courteous manners and strict integrity. It is only just to say. in conclusion, that under its present able management this company is certain to retain its ascendency in the future which it has already acquired in this novel department of industry. |
