Their I principal headquarters are at the ho-L tela, whero are to be found a largo majority of their customers, In coaj 'sequence of Southorn arrivals, the hotels are beginning to do a good business.. Tho systom of conducting business with Southern merchnts baa bocomo qujto a distinct feature in New York trade. At present, tbey seem to bo completely under tho control of tho sidesmen, who receive, not a^ stated . salary, but a commission on the Bales effected.
