LANCASTER DAILY EfTELLIGEffGER TUESDAY, MAY. 24. 188L vneaster intelligencer. TUESDAY EVENING, MAY 24, 1S81. Iiitredncterj. There is a vital force givipg impulse and direction te progress in the world of busi ness which may be known as the force of concentration. Its working are seen in commerce, in manufactures, and even in agriculture ; but are especially noticeable in the consolidation of railroads, which has formed such a remarkable feature in the history of he past quarter of a cen tury, and which is still going en even mere rapidly than heretofore. By this princi ple of consolidation the cumbersome and COSMy erjjailizan"" m.j urc ivi iu- read companies, with fifty presidents, fifty beards of dircctersand fifty sets of officials, clerks and agcnts,are done away with, and one competent manager, with an efficient stan', conducts the affairs of the consoli dated line fifty times better than before. The advantages aud - economies of con centration, se strikingly illustrated by the example of the railroads, are still mere obvious and mere important in what has been known as retail trade, where the transactions of fifty small dealers arc con selidatcd into ene great business. The gain is net only seen in tlrts conduct of the traffic, as iu the case of the railroads, but it is also seen in the buying and manufac turing of goods dealt in. Net only can the goods be handled and sold as far less expense and with far greater satisfaction te all xarties, but the reduction of invoice cost in large lets fieni first hands is a still mere significant consideration. Concen tration in this branch of commerce breaks down the distinction that has heretofore existed between wholesale and retail traffic. Descriptive. Te bring the concentrating principle into practical effect in business three pri mary requisites must be secured : Firss, an appreciative spirit in the community ; second, ample capital ; third, and most indispensable of all, an organizing intelli gence, with genius for instituting order, system and discipline, backed by unflinch ing courage and persistence of purpose. Philadelphia, the city of homes, with a population accounted conservative, but quick te understand and adept better conditions for the household, has furnish ed the first requisite of au appreciative public. Mr. Jehn Wanamakcr has sup plied the second and third terms of the equation, the material resources, and the mental and moral forces te make the same available. The working together of these several factors has resulted in the marvel ous development of that aggregation of .agencies for the supply of all human wants, known throughout the civilized world us Wanamakcr' s Grand Depot. Here business is carried en by the modern methods, with all the aids afforded by modern invention, by steam, by electricity, by the pneumatic dispatch, and the best appliances known te the arts. Here the potent principle of concentration and con solidation is fully carried out. Here the requirements of the individual, of the family, and of the community arc supplied from the first sources of supply, with no intervening agencies whatever te pay tri bute te. Here all the wants that civili zation imposes upon mankind are brought into contact with all the resources that civilisatien has developed for meeting such wants. Tlie Urand Depot. The phenomenal growth of the Urand Depot mams an era iu the history of trade plainly pointing the way which the busi ness of the future is destined te pursue. The establishment occupies the square between Thirteenth and Juniper streets, extending through te Kelly street, with an Arcade reaching te Chestnut street. The ground fleer of the depot measures two and a half acres, the largest single fleer area devoted te business purposes in the world. The galleries and basements together measure about two and a half acres, making five acres all told, packed full for the most part from fleer te ceiling with the choicest products of the mill and the factory, the furnace ami the forge, the workshop and the studio. Te enter the depot at Chestnut street and proceed straight through the main avenue te Mar ket street involves a walk of ever a hun dred and eighty yards, and there are very few public avenues iu the greatest cities where se many people will be encountered and se much wei th seeing will he met te attract the eye. On au ordinary busy day there will be twenty-live hundred people an hour passing both ways under the clock at the entrance of the Arcade ; and dui ing a pressing season, as abuut Christ mas time, it is within reasonable limits te say that a threug of forty thousand visit ors surges through the main avenue daily. As is very commonly remarked, a view of the main fleer from the antique gallery, west of the Chestnut street entrance, strik ingly recalls the Centennial exhibition. There is the same wealth of display, ex tending about as far as the cye can reach, the lichesef the world brought together from all lands and representing all depart ments of art and industry, tastefully ar ranged te be shown with advantage. There is the sameness of spaciousness, and, what is especially noticeable, the same ample illumination, the whole place being light, bright and cheerful. Then there are the same groups and crowds of sightseers mov ing about the many aisles and avenues, new gathering around some attractive ex hibit and again scattering through the vari ous departments. Such a general view will show that most of these departments, forty-six in num ber, are arranged in circles about the common centre. The centre is the heart of the establishment, the scat of activity for the circulating medium, a vital tide which flews te and from the extremities at the sales counters in a steady double current during business horn's. The veins and arteries of this system of circu lation consist of a scries of brass pneu matic tubes radiating from this centre te all parts of the depot, coming within con venient reach of every point in the place where goods are sold. At these points the articles sold and the money paid in for the same are given into the bauds of a re ceiver, who incleses the cash in a light steel cylinder, having the interior diam eter of a silver dollar, together with a statement of the sale, and sends it flying through the pneumatic tube te the heart of the house. Here the correct change is made by experts, five and twenty in num ber, who have this for their sole business ; the transaction is registered and the re turn made te the selling counter through the tulic. Iu the meantime the goods, if te be delivered at ence te the buyer, liave been wrapped up and arc handed ever, with the change, the whole proratien oc cupying only a few seconds. The Oram! Depot inaugurated this method, and, as it is already being adopted in New Yerk, it is proper te make note or the fact. This one feature of introducing the pneu matic dispatch is destined of itself te work a revolution in business methods, and it is only just that Mr. Wanamakcr should be credited with the foresight aud sagacity which effected this among many ether improvements. Tfae Vuslness. The underlying idea of Mr. Wanamak er's great undertaking is, as above shown, t bring the producer and the consumer into the closest possible relations ; te elfer the article wanted with the least possible amount of intermediate handliug between t'jc one who uses it and the one who makes it. The idea has also been the foundation en which all the co-operative stores and protective unions of. vari eus descriptions have been built "tip, but ) it has never leen se successfully and sat isfactorily put into practice as at the I Graud Depot. The methods by which this success has, been attained are simple enough, as the methods of all great, enter prise? necessarily are. The watchwords of the business are, veracity, courtesy and accommodation, and these are made effective throughout the establishment by means of organization, order and disci pline. Veracity gives accurate intbrma tien as te the quantity, quality and' char acter of every article dealt iu, net leaving it te the keen bargainer te get the better of the unsophisticated, but putting each en the sure foundation of knowing exactly what they are getting. If a piece of goods is part cotton and part wool, it is net only stated, but the proportion of each is given, and se with everything that cresses the counters. Courtesy treats all alike with kindness and polite attention, old and young, rich and peer, friends and strangers, the buyer of a paper of pins or of a ten thousand dollar trensseau, or of nothing at all. And this is another matter net left te chance, but in every department ladies and gen tlemen are in waiting, whose office it is te welceme visitors and te extend te them any aid, assistance or information within their power te bestow. Accommodation offers te the buyer the very thing wanted at the lowest possible price, and offers, furthermore, every pos sible facility for supplying the want quickly, easily and conveniently. Iu ev ery one of the many lines of goods repre sented skilled superintendents are con stantly en the watch te keep up a full sup ply in each detail of the stock, in each grade, and in every form, size, color and quality of each known te trade. Iu every line of goods there are out-of-the-way items which only ene customer in a hun dred thousand will ever want, and there fore no ordinary store pretends te keep such things always in stock, but the hun dred thousand customers call at the Grand Depot every few days, and there tore the stock must include everything that can be called for. Anether point te note iu the asiiect of the business is that the extent of the trade in foreign goods, amounting te millions of dollars annually, enables Mr. Wanamakcr te retain the services of a resident buyer in Europe, this being the only strictly re tail house ever en jeying such an advantage. flic experienced expert who represents the establishment abroad deals directly with manufacturers, and original pack ages from France, from Germany, from England, as put up at the factory, are shipped straight te the Grand Depot aud opened te supply the consumers, passing through no ether hands en the way. The foreign buyer, being always in the mar ket, and purchasing in' the largest lets, net only secures the lowest prices at which goods can be made, but is kept advised of the best patterns, the latest designs aud the newest products, oftentimes securing the entire manufacture of novelties in choice and dcsiiable fabrics. Accommodation, furthermore, extends te the customer the privilege of 1 eturning purchases if found in any way unsatisfac tory, the purchase money being promptly and unhesitatingly refunded if desired. I lie common and trying experience of finding that goods de net leek, quite the same at home as they did in the store, aud are net, after all, just what the buyer wanted, is the seuice of one half the trouble and aniioyance connected with shopping. At the Grand Depot this trouble is entirely done away with, shop pers there being, "permitted te enjoy the liberal satisfaction of knowing that they arc certain te be suited or te have their money refunded, and this net as a special favor, but as a part of the system of mak ing the supply of personal and family re quirements as easy, as economical, am! as pleasant as possible. Anether advantage offered in the same direction is the saving of time and trouble in supplying all wants under one reef. There is none of the weariness of posting about from street te street, and running down town, and across town, and back agaiu, se trying te strength and patience, and se costly in time and temper, esjicc ially in bad weather, such as often occurs during the spring and autumn shopping seasons. Here everything is at hand and acces-sible without going beyond the doers. The business of the Grand Depot new in cludes the furnishing of everything except previsions and fuel that man. woman or child can desire for comfort, convenience 01 adornment. Frem infancy te age all the incidents and all the accidents of life are provided for in this marvelous store house of the products of man's industry and skill gathered from the four quartets of the glebe. All the wants of ncrsens. iu all classes and conditions, have Iieie been auticinated. net enlv in en I'.u-m. but in many forms, se that buyers find net only just the "article they leek for, but a variety of corresponding articles from which te make judicious selections. What is there that human beings, boys or girls, men or women, old or young, .rich or peer, can ask for that they cannot find iu some one of the forty-six principal de partments or the Grand Depot .' Tlie Original lluiiding. The premises originally consisted of the Pennsylvania freight depot, long deserted. It was a substantial structure, but dilapi dated in appearance, having a double pitched root, descending from a height of about thirty feet at the ridire te about ten feet at the caves. The building had a front of two hundred feet en Market street, broken by great doorways, where the car tracks ran in. It was supplemented by a four-story brick freight oftice en the Thir teenth street corner, aud by three truss truss reef additions running from Thirteenth te Juniper street, en Kelly street. This property was bought by Mr. Wan amakcr in 187.", and after etteetini' neces sary alterations the business was opened in 1870 with a stock or clothing. Frem this inception the development or the Grand Depot has been uninterrupted and uiiprec edentedly rapid, the traffic extending iu new directions every day anil increasing at the rate or millions or dollars annually, until new it ranks as the largest retailing establishment in the country. This nne. aiuplcd enlargement has made constant changes in the premises an absolute ne cessity, and there has hardly been a secu lar day in the live years since 187C. but what artisans and mechanics have been at work in some part or the place. It has been idly said that Mr. Wanamakcr kept men at work making alterations for the sake of constantly presenting something new te the public, for the sake of some thing te talk about, for the sake of adver tisement ; but let these who have said or heard such statements reflect for a mo ment en the fact that the trade of the Urand Depot lias expanded from this one line with which it opened te include forty six separate and distinct lines of geed's, wares aud merchandise ; or en another fact, that the working force or the place, beginning with thirty persons has in creased te an army of two thousand employees actual'y engaged within 'the walls. . Oak Hull. Jehn Whnamaker began business at a time . wncn peopie generally were failing, giving up and retiring from trade mere extensively than ever before. It was during the davk days that preceded tlie outbreak of the war, when business men were embar rassed, distressed and disheartened all ever the land ; but in that season of trib ulatien he had the prescience te sec an opportunity and the courage le se'zc upon it. Oak Hall was opened en the 8th of April, 18C1, four days before the storm broke in the thunder of guns ever Charleston harbor. This beginning was made with confidence, but also with care. The premises en the cor ner of Sixth and Market streets consisted of three floors, with a front of thirty-two feet and depth of sixty feet. The fixtures cost $500 and'lhe working force consisted of tiie firm and two cutters, the latter also aiding in the store. The venture prospered according te the magnitude from the first, the principles lying at the foundation of 31r. Wanama kcr' s success being as potent then as new. It was slew work for a time, however, and the first Saturday, when the sales reached a hundred dollars, was marked as an important era. As trade increased the place was from time te time enlarged and altered, the sales going en durins the changes without interruption. The first enlargement was the hiring of a second-fleer-room in Ne. 1 Seuth Sixth street ; then the entire building was taken, and subsequently the ether stores te the cor ner of Miner street. Oak Hall, new six stories high, has a front of 67 feet en Mar ket and runs through with this width 180 feet te Miner street The premises for merly occupying this place accommodated fertv-fivc ditfercut tenants engaged in as many different kinds of business. In place of the two cutters there arc new from sixty te seventy in the stock and custom departments together. Oak Hall te day gives employment te 2,300 people, being one of the great centres of industry, which contribute most largely te the sup sup pert of the working population of Phil adelphia. The stock carried by the house iu cloths and clothing approaches a mil lion of dollars and the sales during a busy time will often reach from $25,000 te $30, 000 daily. A large anieunt of manufacturing is done en the premises, the upper floors be ing devoted te these purposes. Oil the sixth fleer, for e"xamplc,is the shirt factory which, taken by itself, would be cousider ceusider cd a vecy large establishment, turning out, as it docs, a hundred dozen shirts daily, and giving work te seven hundred hands. Anether branch of manufactures, located en the fifth lloer, is that of neckties aud scarfs, with an output of a hundred thou sand dollars per annum. The cutting rooms are also located en these upper floors, and some idea may be formed of the extent of the work dene by the statement that of the goods used for trousers' pock peck els seven bales of thirty pieces each arc cut up iu one day. What will strike a stranger, hewever, las the most remarkable cutting up of cloths is done in the mail order depart ment, where six thousand yards or goods are annually cut into samples aud scut out through all the land. This'intercsting de partment extends the trade of Oak Hall into every state and territory iu the Union and the business done through its agency is rapidly approaching a million dollars per annum. On the third lloer is the salesroom for line clothing, the stock et gentlemen's dress suits here being larger than all the ether stocks of similar goods in Philadel phia together. This lloer also accommo dates the immense Hues of spring over coats and the wide variety of suits that come under the denomination of Man uel s. The customs department is en the sec ond lloer back, a very spacious, well lighted and pleasant room, where the stock of cloths and the anieunt of business done is en the same cxtcusive seale that meas ures the trade of Oak Hall throughout. The first fleer is the main salesroom for general stock, for furnishing goods, and for youth's suits. This is the great popu lar resort for buyers, and mere people have been and continue te be suitably, econo mically and s.itisracteri!y supplied with becoming apparel Here than iu a dozen or dinary clothing houses. Tlie Chestnut Street Stere. Chestnut street is famous for its handsome stores, and the store of Jehn Wanamakcr fc Ce., located next below the Continental hotel, is one of the handsomest en the street. Its magnificent show windows, with mcdiiuval stained glass upper sec tions, and artistic displays or -choice fabrics and fine habiliments, constitute one of the most attractive features of this metropoli tan thoroughfare. The interior of the buildings maintain the same elegant char acter as the front tiie lefty apartments, grand stairway, luxuiieus fittings, artistic decorations, costly pictures, and general air of refinement and geed taste conveying an impression el solid wealth and unstint ed liberality. The proportions of the premises are 55 feet front by 23S "feet deep, the same depth as the Continental hotel, the buildings being four stories high. The salesrooms en the ground fleer are the finest in Philadelphia and are devoted mainly te the display of the general stock, te gentleman's furnishing goods, and te youths' and boys' clothing. The latter department occupies the ground fleer and galleries of the store adjoining the hotel, originally constructed as a jewel box a superb casket en a large scale ami, in adapting it te the accommodation of ladies aud children, Ihcunly changes made are such as te alterd the best fncilities for serving them satisfactorily. The custom salesroom en the second lloer is by far the largest aud finest apart ment devoted te gentlemen's drapery in the world. It is 120 feet iu length by 42 feet wide, with high, vaulted ceilings, floors covered with deep piled carpets, walls adorned with fine works of art and fittings of the most elegant description. Here are displayed a line of fabiics for gentlemen's wear, comprising everything rich and fine and everything serviceable and substantial that the textile industries of the world can produce. It should be especially noted that of the choice goods above mentioned examples of the best and most costly are te be found made up into garments en the counters down-stairs. The cutting, trimming and making of these garments are in every way worthy of the cloths, the best skill and best workmanship and the best taste, se that a gentleman in want of a spring over coat, for instance, can obtain one that shall represent in every respect the very acme of the tailoring art from the stock in the salesroom. This high grade of excel lence, however, is net attiincd by neglect or mero popular grades, as the stock, amounting in value te about $500,000. also includes goods that will compare in prices with any ellcrcd elsewhere : men's suit?, for instance, as low as $0.50, and boys' suits at $3.25. This business was established by Mr. Wanamakcr iu April, 1809, and during the thirteen years of its cxistence it has gradually extended until it new requires ever 200 employees en the premises and 000 outside, with sales amounting te $1,000,000 annually. Frem its first inception te the present moment it has had the advautage of di rect personal supervision by Mr. Samuel Wanamakcr, whose constant presence every day aud all day has impressed upon the establishment that character of thor oughness and perfection in work and of unfailing courtesy' in dealings which makes the store one of the pleasantest and most, profitable places te visit iu Philadel phia.

BUSINESS SUITS- We liave somewhere in the region of ene huudrcil styles of business suits new ready te put en. A list of tliein would be the dullest of reading-; and yet we want yeii te knew substantially what they are like. The. lowest price is $3.50, and the highest is $20. They are all or wool. 8.50 is very little te get all-wool cloths, sponging, cutting, trira naing, making, watching, handling, rent, book-keeping, advertising and wiling, out of; but we manage te de it by dividing the. costs among se many of you that ene hardly feels his share at'all ; he pays for materials and work, and very little mere. We'll take another day for the rest ; but you may as well come and see new as later. Seeing is better than reading. WANAMAKER & BROWN OAK HALL, MARKET AND SIXTH, PHILADELPHIA.
