ANNOUNCEMENT BY ISAAC
HAMBURGER & SONS.
Folger & Hendricks,

GlSkeHS, .. ".
Gcntleman:
In our time we have made some
very interesting and notable announ-
ccmcnts. This however, in an un-
usual one.
With two large interests demand
ing our time and attention, our
Wholesale Ready to Wear Clothing
business on the one hand, our Whole
sale Tailoring business en- the other,
and close personal supervision re-
quired by each, the growth of the
two brought os to the point wnere
it became evident we could net con-
tinue to do justice to both.
Therefore, after due deliberation
we decided to accept what appeared
the only solution to our problem, and
that was to discontinue our activity
in the tailoring field and devote our
entire time and facilities to the pro-
duction Of Ready to Wear Clothing
While it might seem easy enough
|
to discontinue the tailoring business
we felt certain responsibility to our
customers, many of whom had dis
tributed our product for years, recog-
nizng as we did that they expected
to continue their tailoring business
uninterrupted and undisturbed.
SO we rather considered it our duty
to gather first hahd information re-
garding other tailoring houses, give
our customers the benefit of what
we learned about them, and thereby
assist them to make a connection
with a house whose standards were
parallel to ours and thereby avoid
them the costly and disappointing cx-
perimenting in which they might
otherwise engage
In searching for house whose
product would equal ours which after
all was the principal consideration,
the selection naturally narrowed
down to very few concerns, and
after taking into account every fea-
ture that makes Wholesale Tailor
ing House desirable our knowledge
of the business made it very clear
to us, that as Wholesale Tailoring
House. The Kahn Tailoring Compa-
ny of indianapolis was pre-eminent
in the field
Their product is of standard so
high we were quite surprised, and
their service is so prompt as to be
really impressive. Their Woolens
and hot weather cloths for Spring
and Summer will cover every posi-
bic trade requirement and the line
in it's entirety is certainly a very
large one.
With all this in their favor we
felt we were satisfactorily discharg-
ing our duty to our customers by
arranging for the transfer Of our
tailoring business to the Kahn Tailor
ing Company, and that they mcrited
this is borne out by the fact that
every one of our salesman has enter
cd the employ Of the Kahn Tailoring
Company, whereas any Of them could
easily have connected with other
houses had they so desired
Heretofore your Openings have been
held by Mr.. Harry Sloman, who will
again be at your service for the Kahn
Tailoring Company, and you will hear
from him personally very soon re-
Carding arrangements for the Spring
Opening.
We assure ycu with the utmost
sincerity that you will be happy in

Topics for Discussion at Center
Market Auditorium.

Fruit growers. transportation Of
fieials and dealers of Maryland, Vir-

West Virginia will meet at the Cen

One of the most important ques-
tions to be discussed will be the mar
keting situation. They are going to
get from the Department of Agricull-
ture an estimate of the fruit pros
poets in different sections, so that
transportation officials will be able
to cooperate with the growers in
supplying adequate movement.to-
market facilities.
Because Of the damage by frost
during the late spring, crop condi-
tions are said to vary widely and
the need for definite information

Asks If Electricity

the enormous increase in the produce

ture of electricity Is not adding to the
magnetism of the earth. Or can cleo

danger. and very grave danger, of the
earth becoming such powerful mag

into US? We know there is strong af-
fnity between the earth and moon
called gravity. so strong that 1t causes
the tides. and remembering that the
moon is less than 250,O00 miles away
from us. Is there not very grave danger
that the greatly increased magnetism
of the earth will draw it into US?
And is not this greatly increased
magnetism of the earth the cause of
SO many large meteors recently?

large meteor, and when it does woe

and Myers-was set aside by the re-
viewing authority for lack of suf-
ficient' evidence.
Acting Secretary's View.
Acting Secretary Roosevelt based
his action in the cases of the three
leaders on the fact that the conven-
ing authority in his action on the
second case did not specifically pro-
vide that the second sentence should
begin to run upon the expiration of
the first" and ruled that the sem
tences should run concurrantly." No
reason was given for the reduction OF
the other sentences. All the marines
involved in the affray were members
