Merchandise Brokers VIII Not Close
Early on saturdays.
A scheme which had been arranged be-
tween the merchandise brokers OF the city,
having for it's purpose the closing of their
places OF business at O'Clock Saturday
afternoons throughout the year. was NIP
ped in the bud yesterday by the action
OF one OF the firms OF wholesale grocers.
The brokers have been closing at 2
O'Clock Saturdays during the summer. and
as they had found that the practice. when
universal did not interfere with bust
ness. they had determined 90 continue II
throughout the year. To keep up with
the merchandise brokerage business. re-
quires steady movement during the week
and when the weeks end comes. employ
ers and employees are anxious 20 have a
rest and feel they are entitled 60 receive
IT,
Everything was fixed to Keep up the
practice OF early closing on Saturdays
yesterday being the first day when the
old agreement did not apply. when came
the smash. member of one OF the lead
ing Arms OF wholesale gnocers called into
his Office a member of the firm OF brokers
with which the former house principally
deals. ard told him. II IS said II he closed
his Office during the afternoon business re-
lations between them must cease on the
spot
Under this state OF fdcts there was but
one thing for the brokerage Arm to do
and IL did H. The other brokers were no
tined and all kept open.
