| TEXT | The sale of hemp, flax, jute, tow and all their kindred in the raw state, as well as their conversion into bags, cordage of all sorts, twine, canvas, nets, etc., etc., and the transmission of these to all parts of the globe, is one of the most important industries of this metropolis. Among those of note in this connection is Mr. Alex. F. Reid, commission merchant, of No. 149 Duane Street, New York, where he gives employment to many hands in his prosperous business. He started this enterprise twenty years since, and devoting his early manhood to its development has given to it its present grand proportions. His stock of goods is large and varied, and consists largely of the raw materials of which textile fabrics are manufactured, as well as a complete assortment of the latter mentioned articles. Besides receiving and disposing of large consignments of all the regular goods known to the trade, as hemp, flax, jute and tow, and their manufactures, twine, cordage, etc., Mr. Reid is the sole agent of the Ky Py hemp, the merits of which have caused its sale to grow with ever increasing rapidity, and it justly holds a highly favored place in his stock. He also imports the "Hercules" gilling thread, which has no superior in the special uses to which it is applied, and for this also the demand is daily increasing. Mr. Reid is a gentleman well and favorably known by a very large connection, and is an alert, active and indefatigable man of business, whose success has been the result of correct and far-seeing business methods. |
