HARTFORD, CONN Y, CONN. SPRINGFIELD, MASS, YORK STOCK on Way Home. Coblenz, July, 12 (By Mail.)-—Ac- cording to the terms of a contract an- nounced by the music department of | Factories Erect Addition—Pri- last evening trip. to Baltimore. vate Dwellings Too Factory construction work is on the increase in New Britain, according to a report made by Building Inspec- tor Arthur N. Rutherford, who issned a permit yesterday afternoon to the White Eagle Manufacturing company, which is making plans to erect two-story brick building, by 80 feet, on Washington street, at a cost of $7,500. Several days ago a permit was ued to the Hart and Hutchin- son Manufacturing company for a $70,000 Dbuilding, and the Corbin Cabinet Lock division of the ‘Ame can Hardware corporation is also building a large addition to the fac- tory located on Maple street. Because of the fact that there many residences near the the White Eagle compan posed to build, there has been much objection to the granting of the per- mit. The company is being supported by Polish residents and plans to eventually develop its export trade as its principal line. The products of this concern will be cutlery, and the wheels will be turning within a few months if the plans of the mana- gérs materialize. The officia are of the Hart and Hutchinson plant have but little to say about their new building except that it will be used for the manufac- ture of steel lockers, such as are be- ing turned out in the main building. The location of the new building on Corbin avenue, near the present headquarters. Owing to the fact that the business of this concern has been very progressive, this new .addition has been found absolutely necessary. The expenditure of so large a sum of money, together with the White Eagle company’s contract and the Corbin Cabinet Lock company work, means that factory construction work in this city is on a great increase. Residence to Cost $15,000. Building Inspector issued a permit vesterday to William Burke, who has secured the contract to erect a one-family frame residence fog Miss Julia Spring at the corner of Cedar and West Main streets at a cost of $15,000. The/ old Spring house standing at the m/ner is being razed and the handsome new r # dence supplanting it will add greatly #ito the appearance of the neighbor- hood. To Erect Big Dance Hall. Continuing further in the building line,- Arch street is to be made an even greater business center with the addition of a new Bardeck block just south. of Philip Bardeck’s present block. Plans are under way that the block have a garage on the first floor, while the second floor will be made into a dance hall, which will be sec- ond to the largest hall in the city, the State Armory hall ranking first. A large dance hall has been much in demand here since the passing of Hanna's armory. The new Bardeck hall will hold 700 dancers at one time and will fill a long-felt want. The garaze will be occupied by M. Irving Jester and plans are heing made that the establishment be one of the best in the city. New Frame Dwellings. Rutherford ialso The building inspector issued per- mits for the erection of two resi- dences. L. S. Strong will construct a frame dwelling, 24 by 28 feet, at the corner of Henry street and Rocky Hill avenue, at a cost of $3,000, and Stanley Babinski will build a dwelling, 28 by 38 feet, on rogd, at a cost of $5,000. frame Roxbury NEW BAKING ASSOCTATION, Tradesmen Meet at Chamber of Com- merce to Organize.
