New Haven7s Industrial Developments Busy Times-GrOwth of the City. The foundations for the large new addition to the Marlin gun shop, old site of Millers garden, are laid, and the walls will soon be up. The new premises, it is expected, will | be ready for the machinery about the middle of May. A number of purchases of houses and lots have been made in the locality | recently.
 The large new shop which Gallagher & Reilly, masons, erecting for Sargent & 1 Go. on the wharf land of the concern will be I about two hundred feet in length and four stories high. It will be continuation Of | the present packing building, and when done | the concern will have a packing building about seven hundred feet long and four l stories high-one of the largest and roomiest ! buildings of the kind in the country. The work of erecting the premises is being pushed
 forward with dispatch
 l Goodrich & Co.,, the carriage manufactur- CTS, burned out number of weeks ago, will l soon be able to resume business, their manu-
 factury being nearly rebuilt. The old walls
 were largely available for use again, but 0
 large quantity of brick has been required in | the rebuilding. The firm has had an eyo to
 making improvements in their buildings, such as past experience has suggested, and will have better shop than ever for their 1 business.
 The carpenters are busy putting the roof to the mammoth new building just erect ed by the Winchester Arms company. The l building will be ready to occupy in July. The Elm City Dye Works, near Neck Bridge, will not be enlarged the present sea l son, the proprietor reserving the intended improvement until later, the premises having
 been much improved already, and being well supplied with all the latest and most ap- proved mechanism and machinery. The Consolidated railroads proposed en- largement of their car and paint shops will make a notable improvement in that line of industry.
 The Schollhorn $ Tesing company are getting the figures of contractors for their proposed manufactory on State street corner of Humphrey.
 The walls of the large new Armstrong fac tory on Chapel street below Durham &5 Woes t6E 5 aE0 up 1u0 UullulHS IS 1QuE StOI1cS and an attic above high basement in which will be the blacksmith shop. The building is about ready for the interior woodwork. It is 8 notable addition to that great manufac- turing section of the city. It occupies part of what were large vacant fields or commons twenty five years ago. The open land then extended from Chapel street to where the D,,JJ hui1di,o for Ivy thara being only two or three houses then inter vening. The land afforded the boys who at tended Dudley school fine spot for kicking football. On this large field about twenty years ago the old 18th regiment, c. ", was marshalled one day just before their embark ation for the war. The Durham & Booth carriage manufactory had then been erected Yale iron works on Chapel street and the Swift shop on Hamilton street were the next innovation on the old playground, and many dwellings have been erected. The progress
 hown in this section is illustrative of the great changes which have been made in the whole of that section within the period named. Among these changes are the erec- ton of the immense Sargent manutactory, the large brewery part of the Goodrich carriage shop, great enlargements of the Rubber and Clock factories, the Mallory lock shop, the Warner malleable iron works, the erection of the O. B. North, Shoninger $ Go. and in short many other large manufacto- ries. T
 A LAW ON THE SUBJECT.
 Corporation Counsel Stoddard,s -oninion is that the existing law does not permit the re- uniting of taxes for five years as an induce mention manufacturing enterprises to locate here. Some of the city fathers think it would be money in the pocket of the city to have 8 law made that will cover the case.
