The E. A. Chatheld company recently purchased 8 large area ot land fronting on the new boulevard and running westerly to the main channel of the West river. On this property adjoining tracks of the Con- solidated road, where they run upon the spiles, the concern will build a new fac- tory much larger than their present one on Kossuth street. It will be two stories in height and 1OOx72 feet long. It will be fitted up with machinery of the most mod ern pattern adapted to the manufacture of fire brick. The factory will have a ca pacity for turning out 1000, 900 fire bricks 8 year.
 The factory will be easily accessible either by rail or water. The railrrad con- pany will build spur track at this point for the receiving and delivering of freight, and the Chatfeld company intends to build docks at the factory where canal boats can land if necessary. About fifty hands are employed in the factory. Ground was broken a few days ago and workmen are now grading the site for the building, which it is expected will be erected by September 10.
