sAf JátrV Large importing merchantile houses on account of the short time the McKinley Tariff Bill remains in operation forced to make great sacrifices in Dress Goods, An immence purchase of Dress Goods, Silk and Woolen Goods by a Syndicate of which The Store is a member. Another of those Fortúnate Trade Happenings which wil! Shape m The Store's Price Policy of the Fall of 1894. m w m m Tomorrow we will open the fall season with the greatest stroke of merchandising we have ever atteiapted. An event that will add a new epoch to the hietory o our firm and that will totally eclipse any and all sales we ever run.- This is a broad statement but is literally trae as a personal investigation will speedily convince you. When the Wilson Tariff Bill passed both houses of Congress and lay in the Président's hands for his approval or veto, the merchante of the entire country llocked to New York to reap the first benefits of its passage. As a consequence millions of goods were sold during the first days it was in effect and the merchante returned home laden with their fall parchases. Now, as a matter of fact, this tariff bill as regards dress goods does not go into effect nntil January lst, '95, and did not effect the price of imported dress goods while the great rush for good& continued', consequently early 'purchasers have bought their goods at practically the old prices. When the rush was over and merchants had deserted New York a radical change took place. Great Stocks of Dress Goods and woolens were left on importer's hands entirely neglected. It was at this time our buyer went east as prearranged with 5 of the largest buyers of Michigan, Indiana, and Ohio forming a syndicate for the purchase of any quantity of Dry Goods that could be bought at a price for spot cash and never was the condition of the market so favorable for buying. Three or fonr large iinportere were found with enormous stocks of Dress Goods on their hands with the inevitable staring them in the face.- To keep them until the new tariff bill went into effect was to sell them at free tariff prices besides losing the u8e of the money tied up in them which they conld not afford to do. Under these circumstances an offer was accepted from the syndicate for the entire importation of these concerns, which gives them the latest, the most desirable, the most exclusive variety of high-claes novelties as well as plain Dress Goods ever purchased at one time at prices 20 to 50 per cent. lees than early purchasers were obliged to pay. A6 The Store's portion of this great purchase. $25,000 Worth of Plain and Fancy Dress Goods, Silks and Woolens Come to Ann Arbor at prices positively less than the Wilson Tarift" Bill will ever make them,- at prices lower than you will ever see again. #OSr"3 jff&l rtOSET The Foreign Centers have unfolded their richest treasures.
