FORT WAYNE. The chief com- mercial and manufacturing city of North- ern Indiana, contained in 1880, 26,048 in- habitants, which has now increased to over 30,000. It is the county seat of Allen county, and the second city in the state in point of manufacture and thrift. The city is located nearly in the geographical centre of the county, distant from Chicago 148, Indianapolis 135, Toledo 94, and St. Louis 342 miles.
TRANSPORTATION FACILITIES.
Fort Wayne has excellent railroad ad- vantages, being traversed by six roads as follows: The main line of Wabash, St. Louis and Pacific, which reaches from To- ledo, O., to St. Louis, Mo., thus giving it unbroken connection with all the leading

western roads, as well as its own branches and leased lines. The Pittsburgh, Ft Wayne and Chicago is the second in importance, and has its shops located here which give employment to over 1,000 hands. The Grand Rapids and Indiana road, with its leased lines is the most important north and south line in the State. The Fort Wayne, Jackson and Saginaw has its south- ern terminus here, and is an important road. The Fort Wayne, Cincinnati and Louisville road make this its northern ter- minus, and the location of the general of- fices and shops. The New York, Chicago and St. Louis Railway, "nickel plated," is a new road with main line extending from Chicago to Buffalo.
RELIGIOUS AND EDUCATIONAL.
Fort Wayne may well boast of her edu- cational facilities, for in addition to sev- eral handsome graded school buildings, there are the following well known insti- tutions of learning : The Fort Wayne College ; the Medical College of Fort Wayne, an institution that has earned the reputation of being one of the most thor- ough of its kind in the State; the Fort Wayne College of Medicine; the Concor- dia College ; St. Augustine Academy, an excellent business college and a musical conservatory ; the Academy of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart, located at Academy, 7 miles northeast of city, may also be reck- oned as one of Fort Wayne's institutions. This most excellent academy is conducted by the sisters of the Holy Cross, and is not excelled by any in the State. The city has a large number of handsome church edi- fices, representing all the popular religious societies.
MANUFACTURES.
This is essentially a mannfacturing city, and can boast of the largest establishments in the State. The most prominent among the mills, factories, etc., are the extensive works of the Bass Foundry and Machine Works, Fort Wayne Organ Company, Peters' Box and Lumber Company, Cent- livre's French Brewery, and S. Pennock's Sons & Co., road scraper salesrooms. The Bass Foundry and Machine Works is the largest car wheel manufactory in the United States; it was established in 1853, and incorporated in 1873. The foundry alone is 75 by 800 feet, and the entire works cover an area of 129,300 square feet. Mr. John H. Bass, president of the concern, also owns the Chicago car works, and a steam forge for the manufacture of car and locomotive axles. In addition to car wheels they manufacture steam engine boilers, railroad castings, mill and heavy machin-
ery, etc. These works are an important ad- junct to the wealth of Fort Wayne, and give employment to a large number of her inhabitants. The Fort Wayne Organ Com- pany, organized in 1871, employs over 100 hands, and is the most successful factory of its kind in the west. The works and lum- ber yards cover over 3 acres of ground Their instruments are rapidly becoming known to be of the best manufacture, and find a market not only in the United States, but in Europe as well. The Peters Box and Lumber Company is also a very im- portant concern to Fort Wayne. It is the largest of its kind in the State, and has a. reputation that is unexcelled. Its promi- nent manufactured articles consist of to- bacco pails, road scrapers, refrigerators, packing boxes, sash, doors and blinds, chair stock, school and all other kinds of furniture. The Centlivre Brewery was es- tablished in 1862, and is the fourth largest in the State, having a capacity of 15,000. barrels per year. It is owned and conduct- ed by Mr. C. L. Centlivre. S. Pennock Sons & Co. have established a branch here of their well-known Kennett Square, Pa., Works. They manufacture a superior qual- ity of road scrapers and machines, and Fort Wayne is quite fortunate in having secured their location. The above-men- tioned do not comprise, by any means, all of the manufactories located here, for, in addition to these, the city produces furni- ture, band-saw mills, truss hoops, mattress- es, earthenware, leather, pumps, handles, carriages, barrels, kegs, linseed oil, plows, crackers, castings, sash, doors and blinds, stoves, flour, grain cradles, lumber, files, stirrups, potash, brushes, woolen goods, wheels, staves, horse collars, soap, pork, overalls, mineral water, engines and boil- ers.
NEWSPAPERS.
The press is represented by 5 dailies- the Sentinel, News, Gazette, Journal and Staats- Zeitung-and 8 weekly papers. The last named are known as the Dispatch, News, Mail, Journal, Sentinel, Herald, Gazette and Staats-Zeitung, which gives it a very strong press influence throughout Indiana and portions of Ohio.
GENERAL FEATURES.
Fort Wayne has broad, clean streets, is compactly built, has substantial business blocks, is lighted by gas and electric light, has a telephone exchange, excellent water works, a well organized fire department, several miles of street railway, good county buildings, an excellent theatre, 17 hotels, and 1 private and 3 national banks. It is rapidly increasing its commercial trade,

and the outlook for the future is very flat- tering .. The city has much private wealth, its citizens are industrious, enterpris- ing and liberal, and Fort Wayne is in fact a prosperous, growing place, with great natural advantages for manufac- ture, being situated at the head of the Maumee, and on the St. Joseph river at its confluence with the St. Mary, giving it an immense water power, which is utilized by means of canals, which are lined with mills and factories. It has a very healthy loca- tion, and is a pleasant residence as well as a great manufacturing and commercial city. It has W. U. and M. U. Tel., and Adams, Am., U. S. and P. Ex. offices. Fred W.
