before the Mayor Tuesday morning
aud The girl was acquitted of any

With the great development of the

subdivision of it into branches for
greater facility and economy of pro-
duction. Thus there are manufactur-
ers who confne themselves to special
laes of goods, as desks, tables, chairs,
be further subdivided, manufacturers
Gevoting themselves to particular kinds
or grades. OF chairs, for example, there
are hundreds of manufactures in the
United States, many of them large es-
tablishments. The present total pro-
duction of chairs in this country is
about 36, 100000 annually, says the New
York Sun.
While the manufacture of chairs is
much subdivided, there may be in
chairs of one kind, that is, of the same
materials and made by the same
processes of manufacture, many styles,
and there are some establishments that
produce chairs in great variety. There
are single concerns that make as many
as 500 different styles. and so in the
wholesale furniture district of the city
there may be found large warerooms
filled with chairs alone, the floor Gov
cred with them in long lines and the
walls hung with them-hundreds of
chairs, no two alike.

her daily visitations, have never extend.

1892 she has lived alone, those related
