fur establishment in the United States.
Christopher Columbus Shayne was born in
Galway, Saratoga County, New York, Septem-
Der 90 1874. He was educated in the acad-
envy of his native county. and at seventeen left
his home to seek fame and fortune At the age
Of twenty-one, in 1866. he was admitted
partner in the Camp Hat and Fur Company.
the largest fur establishment in Cincinnati,
Ohio Three years later, in 1868, he organized
the well-known firm of c. c. Shayne & Co
Mr. Shayne soon recognized that Cincinnati
would never become fur centre so he removed
to New York in 1872 and located at Broadway
and Tenth street, opposite A T. Stewart That
his career has been eminently successful is at
tested by the fact that the firm OF c. c. Shayne
& Co. is the largest fur house in the United
States, and buys and sells in all countries where
the fur-bearing family of animals are produced
or furs worn.
Beginning business at an early age Mr..
| Shayne possesses the most comprehensive
knowledge Of all the details of the fur business.
and the public as a consequence has conf
dence in his integrity and good judgment. He
will not tolerate a deception of customers by
his saIesmen-his positive instructions are.
Tell the facts; never misrepresent an article
to make sale"
Many honOrs have been bestowed on Nj
Shayne's beautiful fur creations. notably at the
Worlds Fair. for the best dressed Russian and
Hudson Bay Sables. Mink. Ermins' and Otter
skins, and for garments of Russian Sables
Sealskin, Persian Lamb and Ermine.
Mr.. Shayne has made a speciality Of Russian
Sable for years, and carries one of the largest
and best selected stocks in the world His es
tabIishment is recognized not only in America
but throughout the civilized world as the head
quarters for genuine Russian and Hudson Bay
sables He sells only the natural skins. not
blended or darkened in any way. which he can
recommend. and the fur buyers, recognizing
this fact, send him orders from all over the
country for these high-class goods. It does not
require any extraordinary process Of reasoning
TO arrive at the conclusion that the business
conducted on this basis must be successful
and that the proprietor has honestly become
one of the wealthy men Of the nation, as has
been the case with MI Shayne.
Mr.. Shayne is one Of the large real estate
owners of Nav York City property, and the

Baltimore. Dec. 1O.-Rumors have been
rife for some days in political circles.
and were partially confirmed today, thar
the next Legislature would be asked "a

other gas company in Baltimore city.
j. Edward Addicks. the Delaware poll
rdcian and gas operator is reported as be-
Ing identified with the proposed new COM
pany, while David NJ. Newboid and form
er state Senator Olin Bryan. OF this city
are also interested dh the movement. The
fact that Mr.. Addicks had been in Basti-
more several times of late has given color
to THE rumor that he is studying the local
gas situation.
According to the reports, the proposed
company has obtained an option on a site
for a plant. Gas. tt is said. will be fur.
nlshed TO consumers at 90 cents per 1905
cubic feet. as against sl.10 charged by the
Consolidated Gas Company. 1t is pro.
posed to ask the Legislature to repeal tho
act Of 1886 prohibiting amy competition
with the Consolidated Company. on The
ground that the provision Of this act
creates a monopoly.
All efforts TO see Mr.. Addicks were
fruitless.
