debt. The city taxation averages but little over one per cent, and state and county taxation combined is only about one third as much. These rates are far below those of other cities as large and well improved.

The advantages afforded to employees are scarce equalled. Not five cities in the country have so large a proportion of homes owned by their occu- pants. This is because lots and building material are so moderate in price. All kinds of food are abun- dant and reasonably cheap. Wheat, corn, cattle, sheep, hogs, poultry, and vegetables are leading articles of production in Michigan, and we have the largest fresh-water fisheries in the United States. The climate is generally equable and mild, and in the city the death-rate averages only about twenty . in a thousand per year.

The amount of capital invested in manufacturing enterprises in 1880 was estimated at $20,000,000, and the annual product at $35,000,000.

The following is an alphabetical summary of the principal articles actually manufactured in Detroit : Awnings, ale, alcohol, artificial limbs, boilers, brooms, baskets, bolts and nuts, blank-books, blinds, brackets, beds, bedding, bridges, bluing, bricks, barrels, bread, bungs, boats, belting, boxes, boots, bags, billiard tables, baking powder, castings, cars, car wheels and springs, candles, cigars, carbon, cof- fins, combs, chemicals, confectionery, cornices, cut- lery, caps, corsets, clothing, copperware, crocks, casks, capsules, clothes-pins, crackers, carriages, children's cabs, chairs, carpets, chewing gum, doors, door-knobs, electrotypes, engines, emery wheels, extracts, edge tools, earthenware, electrical instru- ments, furniture, furs, frames, flour, files, faucets, fences, fertilizers, fanning mills, gold pens, guns, glue, gloves, glass, horse collars, hats, harness, hoop skirts, iron, iron pipe, ink, jewelry, journal metal and boxes, knit goods, lead pipe, lime, lounges, linseed oil, lasts, leather, lumber, maps, machinery, monu- ments, mittens, matches, mattresses, malleable iron- ware, mantel-pieces, medicines, mouldings, organs, pails, photographs, picture-frames, plaster figures, perfumery, pulleys, paint, putty, pianos, pipes, pins, pills, paper, rope, roofing, stoves, shoes, soap, sash, spectacles, saw-gummers, sleds, show-cases, statu- ary, safes, saws, sawing machines, sleighs, steel, stoneware, ship-blocks, sewer-pipe, stained glass, signs, sails, shafting, stamped ware, screws, shirts, stencil-plates, tea-caddies, tinware, twine, tobacco, tiles, trunks, tubs, tombstones, umbrellas, vinegar, varnish, wagons, wine, wood-cuts, wood- working machinery, window shades and screens, watches, whips, windmills, white lead, washboards, wigs, wire goods, wooden and willow ware, yeast.

Illustrations are given of several of the more im- portant and enterprising manufacturing establish-

ments, with a few items as to the character and ex- tent of their business. Some of them have been in operation only a short time, and for this reason the amount of their products is relatively small.

The Michigan Car Company and the Detroit Car Wheel Company.

Both of the above corporations are under one management, and together form the largest estab- lishment of the kind in the United States.

The officers are as follows: James McMillan, president; Hugh McMillan, vice-president and gen- eral manager ; Joseph Taylor, second vice-presi- dent ; James McGregor, general superintendent ; W. K. Anderson. treasurer ; W. C. McMillan, sec- retary ; J. Hill Whiting, superintendent of foun- dries. . In these establishments and accessory works, such as furnaces and steam-forges, all managed by these corporations, a capital of one and a quarter million dollars is represented. They make box, stock, platform, coal, ore and refriger- ator cars. The works were established in 1865, and moved to their present location at the Grand Trunk Junction in 1873. They occupy thirty acres, and when fully employed require 2,500 men, and can turn out thirty cars, three hundred and fifty car- wheels, one hundred axles, and sixty tons of iron per day. During 1887 there were used at these works 60,000 tons of iron, and probably 50,000,000 feet of lumber, and a total of 10,000 cars and 110,000 wheels were made. Up to 1883 they had made 48,731 cars. Placed close together in one long train, they would reach two hundred and eighty-four miles, or across the State of Michigan and beyond Chicago. As many as two thousand cars have been made for one company, and so many different companies have patronized the works that it is literally true that cars built in Detroit run constantly in every State and Territory, and in all the Canadian Provinces.

The Detroit Steel and Spring Works.

This company is officered with Alexander De Lano as president, C. P. Choate as vice-president and general manager, and H. R. Newberry as sec- retary and treasurer. The company was incor- porated in May, 1879, and began operations the same year. The works are located at Detroit Junction. Their chief specialty is spring-steel, loco- motive and car-springs. They also make large quantities of steel for use in the manufacture of agricultural instruments and for the trade. During 1883 the works produced 6,200 tons of steel and made 5,000 tons of steel car-springs. Their ship- ments reach not only all parts of our own land, but also South America and Australia.

Besides the car-works named, there are also located at Detroit

The Peninsular Car Company.

The officers of this corporation are Frank J. Hecker, president, manager, and treasurer, and C. L. Freer, vice- president and treasurer, and E J. Ruelbach, secre- tary. The company was incorporated in December, 1879. The capital stock is $300,000. The works established in 1880 were located on the river, be- tween Walker and Adair Streets ; dur- ing 1885 they were moved to a tract of thirty-four acres near the Detroit & Milwaukee Railroad Junction. During 1887 they built 8,200 cars, and since they began have constructed 35,297 freight cars. In connection with their works the com- pany operate a wheel foundry, having a capacity of three hundred wheels per day, and a soft casting foundry, with a daily capacity of fifty tons. They employ an average of 1,350 persons, have a very complete and modern plant, and during 1887

the company incorporated in January, 1883. Up to the beginning of 1884 the company had made 36,000 car wheels, and during 1883 2,600 tons of castings were produced. Logging, lumber, and mill-yard cars are a specialty in this establishment, and their cars are in use in all the southern and western States. The company make all kinds of car-wheels and architectural iron- work, and do general jobbing and machine work, melting as high as twelve tons of iron per day.

This company is offi- cered with W. S. Pope as president and engi- neer : W.C. Colburn, sec- retary and treasurer; and W. L. Baker, superin- tendent. They have built some of the longest bridges in the land. Their works, occupying six acres on Foundry Street, a few blocks south of Michigan Ave- nue, were established in 1863. In 1883 they used a capital of $300,000. They build steel, iron, and combination bridges, viaducts, railroad turn and transfer tables, and other structural iron work During 1882 seven thousand tons of iron were

including blast, threshing, rolling, mining and mill engines, also boilers of all kinds ; iron work for saw- mills, architectural iron-work, mining and blast- furnace and elevator machinery, and iron and brass castings of all kinds. Among sir thepecialties, Hopkins's patent lead-lined journal bearings, Clam- re's Ajax journal metal, and the Fulton bronze journal boxes are worthy of special notice. Of the Hopkins journals, five hundred tons are made yearly. The Champion tire bender and Stoddard's lightning tire upsetter are made at these works. Orders for these various products come from all parts of the country.

The Fulton Iron and En- gine Works

were established in 1851 by Johnston, Wayne, & Company. The works are now conducted by a cor- poration, with James Mc- Millan as president, Hugh Mc Millan as vice-presi- dent, W. C. McMillan as secretary, and M. T. Conk- lin as manager and treasur- er. Nearly one hundred and fifty steam engines, of from eight to two hundred horse-power, are here manufactured every year,

and is located at Nos. 67 to 85 Fort Street East. Among the original officers were J. J. Bagley, Z. R. Brockway, and D. O. Paige. The officers are : W. B. Wesson, president; A. S. Wiley, vice-presi- dent ; D. O. Paige, treasurer and general manager ; A. W. Baxter, secretary ; and George E. Martin, superintendent. The first year two hundred and forty-two safes were manufactured ; in 1882, 3,100. The prices of safes range from $60 to $40,000. The regular makes weigh from 935 to 21,850 pounds, and vary in size from one foot four inches high by one foot six inches wide, to six feet six inches high by four feet eleven inches wide. Nearly one hun- dred regular varieties are made, and any size or kind is made to order, besides vault and iron shutters, and iron work. Fire or burglar proof or combined fire and burglar proof safes, for both home and office use, are made with either single or double square or round doors All the safes have round corners and particularly close-fitting doors ; all are highly finished, and some of the interior decoration is really artistic. During 1883 they used about one hundred tons of steel and iron per month. For door frames and jams they use a highly carbonized, and a soft, homogeneous steel fused together in ingots in such a manner that when rolled into plates, the softer steel, of great tensile strength, is cov- ered on both sides with the highly carbonized steel, which is so tem- pered that it is drill proof. It is rolled into shapes for some parts of the work under patents ex- clusively controlled by this company. Agencies are established and stocks of safes carried at Boston, Mass., New York, Baltimore, Md, Augusta, Ga .. Lyons, N. Y., Louisville, Ky., Chicago, Ill., St. Paul, Minn., Denver, Col., and San Francisco, Cal., and their safes are sold to customers all over the United States and in Greece, China, Japan, France, South America, Australia, New Zealand, and the West Indies, and in various other far away lo- calities.

The Detroit Copper and Brass Rolling Works.

This corporation began business in 1881. They have a capital stock of $300,000. The officers are: C. H. Buhl, president; R. W. Gillett, vice-presi- dent ; L. H. Jones, secretary and treasurer ; and J. Howe, superintendent.

Their first works were located on the corner of Larned and Fourth Streets. In 1888 they removed to buildings which they erected especially for their own use, on the west side of Mckinstry Avenue between the Wabash Railway and the River Road, They have the largest and most complete copper

Parke, Davis & Co., Manufacturing Chemists.

This concern was organized May 7, 1867, under the name Duffield, Parke & Co. In 1869 Dr. A. F. Jennings was admitted to the concern to succeed Dr. S. P. Duffield, who then retired. The firm then became Parke, Jennings & Co. In 1871 Dr. Jennings retired, and on November 16, 1871, it was reorganized as a co-partnership under the name of Parke, Davis & Co. The rapid extension of their business necessitating a larger working capital, they were incorporated January 14, 1875, retaining the same name, with a capital of $125,000. An almost unprecedented rapidity of growth has required further additions to their capital stock from time to time, until at present, 1888, their cap-

ent popularity. By this means the most bitter and nauseous medicines, in either fluid or powdered form, may be more easily swallowed than pills, and without the patient experiencing the least objec- tionable taste. The introduction of gelatin capsules marked a distinct and noteworthy advance in methods of medication.

One of the most important features of the work of Parke, Davis & Co., has been their investigation of the medicinal flora of this and foreign countries. Believing that there existed many undiscovered vegetable remedies that might cure diseases hitherto incurable, they employed skilled botanists, chemists, pharmacists and physicians to subject to careful experiment plants which they were led to believe

ital is $1,000,000. H. C. Parke is president, and George S. Davis, secretary and treasurer.

The facilities of Parke, Davis & Co., for the manufacture of medicines, in character and extent, are now unsurpassed by any in the world. In addi- tion to every variety of standard preparations of drugs, such as fluid extracts, pills, concentrations, elixirs, wines, syrups, cerates, etc., they are largely interested in new, improved and more palatable methods of administering medicine.

It is chiefly to their efforts that the gelatin cover- ings for medicines, known as capsules, owe their pres-

contained medicinal principles. In carrying out this branch of their work, they have established a perfectly appointed herbarium for gathering in- digenous plants at Charlotte, N. C., under the man- agement of a distinguished botanist, appointed agents in all the habitat of medicinal flora, and dis- patched special représentatives at great expense to Mexico, to the wilds of South American States, rich in medicinal flora, to the Fiji Islands and to the West Indies. As the result of their investiga- tions, medicine has been enriched by many new drugs now in general use. Among these may be
