THEMAAngaben zum Unternehmen
TEXTThis company produces work to the value of $2,000,000 annually. The firm was established in 1855, with only five hands, and now has a trade extending over the entire Northwest, and as far east as Cleveland, Ohio, with frequent orders from Boston, New York, and other eastern cities. The products manufactured include elevators, hoisting engines, steam warming and ventilating apparatus, steam and gas fittings, brass goods and wrought-iron pipe, the latter a specialty, and of which they manufacture over 300 tons per month. The latter branch of their trade is rapidly increasing and will extend the Eastern business of the company largely.
