Proposed enlargement of L.G. Tillotson

Proposed Enlargement of L. G. Tillotson & Co.'s

Manufactory.

WE have frequently alluded to the wonderful development of the business of manufacturing telegraphic and electrical apparatus during the last few years. This development and increase seems to be unabated, and at the present time the shops of the manufacturers of such apparatus, or at least such of them as consult their own interests by advertising in THE TELEGRAPHER, are more than ever crowded with work. The leading position of the firm of L. G. TILLOTSON & CO. in this business is well known to our readers, and we are pleased to be able to state that they have decided to double their facilities with the coming spring. The entire upper floor of the CORNELL building, in Centre street, has been leased by this firm, and will be fitted up with new and improved machinery, and an additional force of expert workmen employed, in the hope that by this means adequate facilities may be obtained for the constantly accumulating orders pressing upon them. For some time past TILLOTSON'S shop has been run nights until ten o'clock, but yet the new orders exceed those which they are thus enabled to complete.

The new shop will be 70 by 75 feet, and when fitted up and in operation will, without doubt, be the most complete telegraph works in the country.

Mr. TILLOTSON himself leaves for Europe in about two weeks, and will purchase any new or improved machinery which can be obtained abroad for the better equipment of the new factory.

Energy, enterprise, capital, and personal popularity are elements which may be relied upon to insure success, as the experience of TILLOTSON has abundantly demonstrated.
