THE CHICAGO FRADE.
The commercial editor of the New York
World CLEANS from conversation With
Messrs. Clailin and A. T. Stewart, Of New
York, the following concerning Field, Letter
& Co. and Jno. v. Farwell, Of Chicaeo:
ssThese two are BY far the largest firms in
Chicago, holding the same position there
vhich e filled By A. T. Stewart and H. B.
Clafiin in this city. They both occupy large
and costly stores-one worth $500, 900 and
The other $45O, 900. The business Of each
Is large, and they are extensive consumers o.
metropolitan commission houses dealing in
general merchandise. The amount Of stock

much a. would otherwise have been
the case. Again, their purchases have been
made rather from the New England manu-
facturers than from New York commission
houses, and If the worst comes to the wort
the former will have to bear the principal
loss. For the present, the ordinary bns,nes
which has been done with Chicago will have
to be transferred to st. Louis and CINCINNATI,
owing to the check upon everything in the
former city caused by the fire, but the enter
prise of that young and vigorous community
which has so amazed the world will cause
cause II TO spring Phoenix-l!ke from its
ashes, and in IN even more costly shape.
Among other Chicago firms who buy in this
