BUSINESS CHANGES.
A Budget of Live Items Showing the
Drift of the Times in the
Historic City.

1t is given out by knowing one from
Albuquerque that the dry goods house OF
Grunsfeld, Lindheim & Co., which three
months since announced its intention of
closing out here and removing to Albu-
querque, has reconsidered it's plans and
will continue to do business at the old
stand in the capital city. Water works
wonders don't it? The New MEXICAN is
pleased to learn, even in this round about
way, that Messrs. G. L. & Co., will re-
main in the swim at Santa Fe.
Geo. W. Hickox & Co. will come back
from Albuquerque once more to engage
in business at Santa Fe. Their retail
store will be run at Albuquerque under
the firm name of G. w. Hlckox & Fox,
the latter being H. e. Fox, an eastern
gentleman who recently bought an inter
est in the firm, but the manufacturing
and wholesale department will be carried
on in Santa Fe. Mr.. Hickox has returned
to the city and will remain here in charge
of these departments, bringing back with
him some four or five workmen and their
families. Rooms have been leased in the
Griffin block, fronting on Palace avenue,
and these will at once be rearranged and
made convenient for their tenants bust
ness. The New MEXICAN cordially well
comes back Mr.. Hickox.
The Santa Fe Furniture company has
leased rooms on lower Frisco street and
will open for business early next month,
having large stock of goods now ell
route from Chicago. Chas. Wagner is
the manager and he says he twill handle
everything, from chlld's chair : to a
monument"
Many Santa Feans are already blessing
the day that +. G. Duetcher leased the
Armijo corner. The place has been con-
verified into really neat establishment by
| Contractors Windsor and Laccasagne,
and on Saturday next Mr.. Duetcher will
open there the nobbiest meat market in
the territory. In the language of Owen
Meredith, "Where is the man that can
do without dining?" He alone will have
little interest in this new enterprise.
Quantities of hardware, including all the
novelties that belong to this line, are now
coming in from the east for W. H..
GoebePs new hardware establishment.
The large store room in the Catron block
is being conveniently fitted out with
shelving, counters, etc, for the use OF
Mr.. Goebel and by Sept 10th he will be
ready for business.
! c. R. Baker, of Denver, has recently
opened a new photograph gallery on
lower Frisco street. He comes to locate
here permanently and will open for
business up town just as soon as rooms
can be secured.
Hon. R. M. Force, ex district clerk,
has made up his mind to settle in Santa
Fe and engage in business ss attorney.
He has written his family to come on
from Kentucky and join him here, and
was out this morning hunting a dwelling
house-but he found none to let.
Mr.. c. R. Freeman who is interested in
the Colorado State bank, OF Durango, and
whose brother is at the head of the City
National bank of Denver, is in the city to-
day and the quito )me of his visit is likely
to be announced shertly in the shape Of
very excellent news for Santa Feans.
Rooms in the Lamy block, opposite the
New MEXICAN, have been neatly fitted uT
and will be occupied by the new Water
company on the first of the month.
