He cites a New York dry goods merchant who found local conditions differ, noting shoppers here know sellers personally. Simmons runs a vast wholesale hardware concern with twenty million dollars in yearly sales and 900 traveling salesmen, trading widely including India and Austria. A noted practice is buying goods on the Atlantic coast, shipping to St Louis, then reshipping overseas to reduce handling costs.
