business conditions in november 1895 we published a list of the operations in and about amb ler and the total showed the amount of 214,875 in ambler alone 987,075 worth of property had been created during the year or was then in process of building and the remainder was being erected in the vicinity of the borough the most of it within a mile of the corporate limits a careful table prepared
