Hamilton-B Brown Contemplate Es-
tablishing a Retail House at
Twenty-First and Olive.
BREAK GROUND FOR BUILDING.
Enterprise Is Said to Be the Result
of Local Merchants Not Hand
ling the Company's Prod
ucts Extensively.

In the new eight-story factory building,
ground for which was broken yesterday at
the northeast corner of Olive and Twenty
first streets, the Hamilton-Brown Shoe Com
pany may install a large store on the ground
floor and sell shoes at retail at cut prices.
This action is said to be contemplated TOT
the reason that the products OF this con-
Germ, one of the largest in the world. are
handled to a very limited extent py retail
merchants of St. Louis.
Another reason advanced is that the man
ufscturers believe that in a short time the
retail district will be extended westward on
Olive street, and they expect TO be the pio-
ners in opening a large establishment in the
new district.
A. D. Brown. president of the company.
stated that definite plans have not been
formed in regard to the proposed retail
store. nor would he admit that his concern
would fight the retailers who have not pat
ronized the home institution to the extent
that has been thought reasonable.
The report was current that Hamilton
Brown might sell their shoes in the retail
department of the new factory at merely a
fraction above wholesale prices. When
asked about this feature. President Brown
said:
w have no particular fight TO make. II
we decide 10 put in a retail store al Twenty
first and Olive streets We will make a price
that will sell the goods. and the people Will
go there to buy them"
Several buildings. which have been used
as boarding houses on the site Of the fac
tory extension at Twenty-first and Olive
streets. were vacated yesterday and wreck
ers began dismantling them. The work will
be pushed at a rapid rate and the new
structure. which will adjoin the Hamilton
Brown plant at Locust and Twenty-first
streets. will be completed in the spring or
early summer.
The building will cover a lot 50x15O feet,
and will be f1reproof. the exterior to be
finished with brick and stone. with wide
window spaces and large sky-lights. The
seven upper stories will be used for factory
purposes and the investment will exceed
500. COO. About a thousand additional opera
tives will be employed.
The Hamilton-Brown Company has other
plans for extensions under way. and this
year they will invest approximately half a
million dollars In improvements. and in
crease their output and force of workmen
