Exposuro of tho * Union Furnishing "Company ** and Its Modo of Operation, Enormous Profits Made by the Sale of Worthless Artioles. An Establishment of Which Every One Should Beware. * Ohonp Jolin" ia nn institution which, how- ovor it may flonrish in povorty-strickon, unodu~ sated Europe, gains but o vory jusecurs foot- hold among the freo iustitutions of enlightencd Amoricn, and Las butn very precarious exist- ouco indeod in tho West, whero pov- orty nnd ignorance aro comparatively but Iittle mot with. But evon in Chi- cago one can find establishments in which the proprictor collects all sorts of odds and ends, purchased ot second-hand from neody proprie- tots, and rosells them at o hugo profit to the casual customer, and, though ho hunt for a long timo, ho will succeed in finding but ono or two - of thom in'the whole city., Tho great thing to which these catublishments lnok for sup- port is the fact that thoro aro always and everywhera' to be fonnd 5 numbor of people who nro continually on tho lookout for * bargains ;" they havo what may be called chronic choapomanis,—aro porpetually looking sud longing for opportunities of gliving their rondy mouey in change for some article which appears to them to bo of fabulously greator valuo than the prico demanded. Everything is fish that comos into the' cheapomanise’s net.

And na long as thoro are fools liviug thero will bo knaves to take ad- vantago of their folly. Considoruble excitomont has beon aroused of Iato in Chicago and the surrounding Statos by tho sending around of & handbill, sotting forth the quasi-philanthropic project of a concorn called the * Union Furnishing Company (organ- ized undor the United States Jaws)," and whoso business is conduetod by Gaorgo B, Hodgo & Co,, managers, Nos. 783 and 785 Stalo street, in this city, ‘Theso philantlropists hold forth such in- ducements to customors a8 give rise to the idea thnt thoy are the emissaries of a Vanderhilt or other capitnlist, who takes the means of their ugency to clothe tho nnked poor, and sat- fsfy tho wants of the necdy, at prices wlich of thomsolves show their prely charitablo intontion.
