There wero no now developments yesterday In tho efforts of J. XV. L. Ilrock, of Huddersileld, Yorkshire, Eng., who Is here to arrange for tho establishment of a woolen mill plant as tho agent of a lurge Yorkshire firm. As related In yesterday's Tribune, Mr. Ilrock has been In the city two weeks, during which time he has looked with favor on a site offered by the West Side board of trade. Mr. Ilrock was yesterday In consul tation with Secretary D. H. Atherton, of the Scranton board of trade, nnd an engagement was mado for this morn ing to Inspect a site In tho North End. Tho plot Is offered by tho Driving park syndicate nnd is situated at the north eastern corner of the park proper, near tho river. The efforts of tho board officers to Induce manufacturers to locate in the northern und West Side sections of the city is explained in the fact that labor, particularly unskilled female labor, is moro plentiful in those localities than In the central city or on the South Side, where so many silk mills have been established. Agent Ilrock comes hero with ap proved credentials and does not seek local capital, two conditions which the Scranton board of trade have for two years exacted from prospective manu facturers. It is believed that the city's cheap fuel, plentiful labor and unex celled shipping facilities will result in securing tho Yorkshire firm. Mr. Brock will, however, visit several other cities before makinc a recommendation to his employers. LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
