The firm of Messrs. JoURNEAy & BGRyHAM, of
Brooklyn Importers and Dealers in Dry Goods,
was established in January 1874. by Mr.. Henry
7. Journeay and Mr.. Lyman S. Burnham. In
The following year Mr.. Hugh Boyd bscame a
partner and the firm rerna ined unchanged until
the death of MIR, Jonrneay, a year ago. necessl-
lated q reorganization. and its conversion into q
corporation was accomplished.
The reputation of the firm for honorable deal
ing and tor the high class of goods which it
hand les. has always been recognized, and its
credit and that Of the Company succeeding it, is
the highest accorded by the Commercial Agen-
ces of the country. 1t has over $4,000 patrons,
not only in BROOKLYN, but throughout the Nav
England States, New York. New Jersey, Penn
sylvania and Maryland, and extending as far
South as Texas, and as far West as Iowa.
Its career has been one of contin ued prosper
ity, the sales for upwards of forty years
past having amounted to over 81, 300, 900
per annum. For the three months ending
December 81, 1S9l-the first complete quarter of
the corpor;, tiou--its gross business amounted to
1856, ,S65.l7, being S7l,043.4S greater than
quarter were S3f, 777.1s, being at the annual
rate of per cent. upon tne Preferred
stock. 12 per cent upon the Common
stock, and a surplus squal to 11-100 per cent
upon both. making in all 3 l 1I-1OO per cent.
upon the Preferred stock. and IL I1-1Oo
however, expected that the business will show a
much greater increase after March ], upon
which date the Company will remove from its
present limited and inconveniently located
premises on Atlantic Avenue to its new and
commodious building now nearly complAted
AZ the junction of Fulton street and Flatbush
avenue. This site selected after due
consideration, and it is believed to be the
most advantageo location in the City of Brook
lyn for dry goods business 1t is reached by
seven different lines of street cars, is opposite
the station of both Elevated Railroads and with :
in two blocks OF the Long Island Railroad sta d.
tion, whereas the pre- sent location is reached by
but two lines of street cars The removal Is in
response to a popular demand. aud universal
assurances OF approval have Leen received of
the contemp. ated change.
The Company is managed, under the control
of it's Board of Directors, by the surviving
members of the late firm, aidel by its well
known, reliable and experienced staff of en-
ployes. Messrs Lyman S. Burnham and Hugh
Boyd and Mr.. John NJ. Conkln, for many years
associated with the late firm, have entered into
an agreement with the Company to remain in its
service until July 1st, 1896 and for such longer
period as their services may be required.
The stock offered is the balance of that
issued by the Company to acquire the interest of
the deceased partner he eight per cent. stock
which was offered in July last was largely over
subscribed, and was allotted pro rata among
nearly six hundred applicants 1t Is now quot ed
LOG ex dividend bid, with no stock offered.
