There is a merry row in the camp Of

The trouble is the direct result Of the
new financing the management for weeks

After a stormy meeting in Jersey City

substitute financial plan formulated by
the directors after the minority stock
holders had held UP by injunction an IS

posed by the directors IN February.

MANUFACTURING IN SMYRNA
Factories Make Baskets to Hold Big
Fruit Product.
Industry Receives Great Impulse
from Proclamation of New Con-
stitutiOn in Turkey.

In Smyrna there are six big and four
teen small factories which manufacture
boxes by steam. The boxes are called
skeleton cases, and are used principally
In the fig-packig industry. The skeleton
cases are made in various sizes. and will
hold all the way from eight Sarge boxes
10 as many as 500 OF the little round
ones so frequently seen with figs on the
American market No less than 60O0O
scch skeleton cases are made in SMYRNA
n single year during the ig season.
and something Ike 250O.OOO additional ones
for raisins. The wood from which all
these boxes are made is imported from
Roumania. while a small quantity Is
brought rom the interior Of Asia Minor
The price Of a skeleton case varies from
50 10 S. and the price OF a box for dried
raisins ranges from 4 TO 6 cents.
Since the proclamation OF constitutional
government in Turkey. some Of the
larger box manufacturing firms are or
ganiZing with the object in view OF using
much larger quantities OF wood from the
interior than has heretofore been the
case. 1t is now understood that the gov
- u-lteAN " III oALNl MUCH greater Iactll-
ties in this respect than formerly.
Pasteboard boxes for figs and raisins are
frequently used. On account OF trans
shipments. the boxes intended for the
American trade are made much stronger
than are those which are destined for the
German OF English trade. The wood used
in this manufacture is pine wood or deal.
Few baskets are employed in the dr-
packing industry. and what are used in
this particular branch OF SMYRNA trade
are imported chiefly from Alexandria.
There IS. however. some considerable
local basket-making industry which IS
carried or entirely by hand II Is p-ac-
tically a house industry. The worlmen
usually have some other staple employ
ment. and resort only 10 basket weaving
when they can not work In the fields. or
business is slack in other trades.
The workmen are either EMPLOYED by
the day or are paid for a certain number
Of baskets. In Menemen, Magnesia. and
other towns not far away from SMYRNA
there are regular workshops for weaving
large baskets for domestic purposes. The
material used is chiefly straw and Grass
Prices range from > to so cents each. ac-
cording TO size and quality. II is esti-
mated that something like 5000 baskets
every year are consumed by the SMYRNA
trade. The nomad tribes and eypsjes OF
Asia ldinor also weave a large quantity
OF baskets.
