THEMABeschreibung
TEXTThe Eagle Iron Works secures to St. Louis the supremacy in manufacturing of and trade in general machinery and supplies. The proud position attained by this house in six short years, is a striking instance of what can be attained by the exercise of push and energy, wisely directed and supplemented by skill and executive ability, in such a growing and progressive center as St. Louis. The business was incorporated under Missouri state laws in 1859, and the officers who now have the direction of affairs are Mr. H. S. Albrecht, president, and Mr. A. Schoelhorn, vice-president and secretary. No gentlemen are better qualified to successfully conduct a great machinery emporium and to develop its latent resources to their greatest capacity than these. They occupy the whole of a fine building, four stories with basement in height, running completely through block from North Levee to Commercial street, as a manufactory, and require the adjoining building of the same large dimensions, for storage purposes. Here is to be found a complete equipment of the newest machinery and the most improved appliances that a business of heavy nature requires, the motive force being supplied by seventy-five horse-power steam engine. Engines, boilers, hangers, shafting, pulleys, boxes, pulverizers, bone mills, saw miles, and brick machinery are included among their productions, with steamboat work to all kinds receives most careful attention. Blacksmithing in all its branches is carried on, every facility being at hand for the manipulation of the heaviest work being in first-class style, and with the best results. A prominent feature of these works is the repairing department which occupies the attention of a large force of skilled machinists. The company are extensive dealers in second-hand machinery. All machines sent our are guaranteed in good workable condition, and are offered at extremely low princes. The trade of this house already extends to every part of the West and Northwest, and is increasing every year with steady strides. Mr. A. Schoelhorn is a native of Germany, and came to this country in 1872, choosing St. Louis at his place of abode two years later. His energy and foresight have been invaluable in building up the trade to its present proportions. With a capital of $25,000, an excellent executive, and perfect facilities, the prospects of his unexcelled concern are of the most satisfactory and promising nature. The telephone call is No. 307.
