BUSINESSMEN SENSE TRADE BOOM HERE [Continued From First Page] is lost sight of frequently for no more logical reason than the town's political status. Being the State capital it is a storm center of political activities and is rarely associated in the average mind with anything else. "And yet Harrisburg, with its adja cent towns, which are merely geogra phical continuations separated from the main division by imaginary lines, is one of the leading cities of Its size in the I'nited States, from a purely commercial viewpoint. "It is one of the first to feel the stringency when there is a stringency, and it is one of the last to deceive it self with an artificially stimulated optimism at the first sign of a revival of trade. The business world ol' Har risburg is essentially a conservative business world, and the business men of Harrisburg Insist upon something more tangible in the way of prosper ity than mere prophesy of better times to come. "It means a great deal, therefore, when virtually all the men of affairs in the town agree that 'the worst is over,' that the further point of cau tion has been reached, and that the time nas come for greater productive ness in all lines, iron, steel, textile, cigars, silks and the hundred other branches of industry upon which the workpeople of Harrisburg depend, with no thought of the shitting politi cal fortunes of Capitol Hill. "Harrisburg is shaking off thfe leth argy of a j ear. and every day since early in November has noted the re vival of some dormant factor in the community's industrial life. (Gilbert's A'lews "Henderson Gilbert, chairman of the Chamber of Commerce, who is a mem-, ber of the largest wholesale and retail hardware business in this section, is! young and enthusiastic and all that, but he believes in the steady methods of the older generation. Mr. Gilbert is optimistic, however. He voted a dozen or more proofs that the time for taking a step forward has arrived. "The Pipe Beading Works, a large Harrisburg corporation, is putting in new machinery, and it was learned that it is about to begin the manufac ture of a large order of shrapnel for! Hi" United Stales government, in ad dition to its other activities. "The Pennsylvania Steel Company, at Steelton, which is actually a part of llarrlsburg, is engaged in the construe-j tion of betterments to cost $5,000,000.1 "In a few Pennsylvania cities the silk industry sagged after the war be gan for reasons already given in the i public prints, but there was no depres sion in Harrisburg. Indeed, the firm l of Pelgram & Meyer, which also owns silk mills at Paterson, N. J., have found their facilities inadequate and have just completed the installation of forty new machines. "The Susquehanna Woolen Mills, across the river in New Cumberland, are running full time, and the same is true of the Moorhead Knitting Com pany in the city proper. The Moor head Company, which markets its pro duct direct to the retailers instead of through the medium of jobbers, has not as a matter of fact felt the pinch much, and it expects to reap some of the benefit:, that at'e bound to fallow the commercial dislocation in Europe. As an evidence of this, attention was called to the fact that the company had been asked if it could knit a cer tain type of women's hosiery or "half hosiery" to be more precise, known as the "ladies' Chinese stocking." Bales of these goods have been manufactur ed heretofore in Germany, but the works there are no longer running. The fact that the concern here can do the work was cited as a fair illustra tion of the perfect equipment of Amer ican plants. "It was also learned that the Har risburg Boiler and Manufacturing Company has taken a large number of orders recently for fire apparatus and other products. "Another evidence of prosperity is the steady increase In the business of the Light and Power Company. When trade revives businessmen resume the use of its power. Mr. Merman an Optimist "Edward S. Herman, head of .Tolin C. Herman & Co., cigar manufacturers and distributors of cigars, tobacco and cigarets, is one of the active factors In the business life of Harrisburg. He Is a director in nearly every bank in town, in the Public Service Company, in the Moorhead Knitting Company, in the Pennsylvania Dyeing and Pleach ing Company and In a few other cor porations. lie is also principal owner of tlie New Cumberland National Bank, where the bleaching plant stands. " '1 do not believe there is a doubt,' said Mr. Herman, 'that we ure on the eve of a business revival: indeed, I believe the revival is already here, al though the winter may be a little tight. There is some disposition of wait until Spring for the greatest acti vity, but 1 find at directors' tables and elsewhere that the tone is almost uni versally optimistic. I have four fac tories, and they may be cited as exam ples of what causes a sag in business. Manufacturers do not buy raw mater ial on a falling market, they wait and wait for a further decline; and mer chants do not stock up when there Is even a slight doubt about the future. Merchants have been going light, and many of them, the vast majority I should say, are pretty well sold out, and must replenish. This will create a demand that will stimulate manufac turing at once.' •' "One trouble with our textile trade iis the uncertainty as to cotton. A I manufacturer hesitates to buy cotton I when his rival may be able t<- set It a little cheaper by watting, and thus be able at a later date to undersell him in the market, but at that I believe the cotton situation Is clearing. Indeed, I feel confident of the future, and in my own varied enterprises X am acting on that principle. I am only one of thousands. •' 'Of course It all depends in the last analysis upon the buying capacity of the public. The merchant is the reservoir. lie orders the goods and when he sells the reservoir has to be refilled. If he does not soli he does not order, and the factory shuts down or runs on part time.' "Other Harrisburg Arms that seem to be on the crest of an advancing wave of prosperity, from what your correspondent could learn, are the Hreisford Packing Company, which is running to capacity; the Harrisburg Baking Company, the Johnston Har vester Company, the 801 l Manufactur ing Company, and the C. E. Bear Com pany. Railroads Take on Men "The railroads, which laid off men early in the year and last summer, are taking scores of them back as business increases. And the railroad is an important factor In the indus trial life of Hnrrisburg, quite apart from the fact that It Is needed as a common carrier. About one-flfth of the people of the United States live within a radius of 300 miles of the city and Its railroads radiate in seven different directions. "As a distributing center it. is In advance, the correspondent was told, of any oilier city of its size in the United States. "Extensive freight classification yards, with through and frequent car service for shipments large and small, are a lure to manufacturers, and the growth of the city along manufactur ing lines has been steady and con tinuous." Harrisburg Will Suffer; Produce Supplies Cut Off llarrishurg was hit by the storm in many ways. While there was sleet and rain yesterday, and more rain to-day, the results of this storm will he felt to-morrow with the arrival of produce shipments from the East. Failure on the part of local merchants to Ket in communication with their Eastern commission houses to-day is taken as an indication that there will lie a shortage in supplies to-morrow. Local dealers usually place their orders for fish, fruit and oyster sup plies early in the week. Tuesday and Friday are the l>lg days lor the ar rival of these supplies. Local dealers report few oysters and fish In llarris burg to-day. The storms will prevent oyster and llshhoats from doing: busi ness along; the Jersey coast, so no sup ply is expected to-morrow. The storm was too far East to seri ously affect the running of trains over the Pennsylvania and Reading Rail roads. Whenever wire trouble occurs, orders j«re given to run under cau tionary signals. Between Paoli and Philadelphia it was reported that there was considerable wire trouble. Signalmen were out in force yesterday and early to-day. Rain fell in Harrlsburg to the depth of more than an inch up to noon to day and was still falling. Weather bulletins were delayed to-day because of wire trouble, and It was uncertain as to how long the rain would con tinue to fall, and when the storm was likely to cease. Indications were that no weather map would be issued to day. \ An Established Business at Public Sale Tlie undersigned will offer nt public sale on the premises on Mar ket street, Duiu-annnn, Pa., on Thursday, Dec. 17, 1914.
