How the Enterprise Was Resuscitated and Made One of the Most Prosperous Industries in St. Louis—Some Interest- ing Facts and Figures. The prosperity of St. Louls is in no way more manifest than the greatness of her live stock interests. Among the great industries of the city and State none rank higher than the Union Stock Yards of North St. Louis. The dash and vim which has pushed the gigantic business to its present power is due in much to Col, Don N. Palmer, the general business manager, who by his ripe business knowledge has won for it a name that adds no little tothe fame which St. Louis justly claimsasa city of great enterprises. Col. Palmer’s management dates back only to 1883. Whenhe assumed control the Union Yards were struggling under a mighty load of opposition, surrounded, asit were, by a mire of uncertainty. But Col. Palmer, although it was a tedious task, brought it back tothe position that it deserved to ceccupy. Mr. John J. Fletcher, the assistant superin- tendent, is a man of wide business acquaint- ance and business knowledge of the trade, He has been of very great assistance in advancing the yards. Closely united with the history of the Union Stock Yards also is the nameof Mr. W. A. Ramsey, the present Secretary and Treasurer of the big commercial enterprise. Joined to Col. Palmer’s efforts his incessant activity has helped to give St. Louis a name in thelive stock business that cannot be excelled by any like institution East or West. It looked almost like a hopeless undertaking to fight the Dressed Beef Trust, and other obstacles of opposition against the Union Yards, but these two gentlemen fought with determination, St. Louis and her people to-day enjoy the fruits of that business struggle through the Butchers’ Union. The butchers are given every advantage of rich and natural market privileges unhampered by any syndicates. THE BUSINESS INCREASE. The business increase at these yards has been nothing less than wonderful. The fol- lowipg figures tell the aecount of the business in the past three years: The receipts in 1888 were 102,005 head of cattle; 108,510 head in 1889; 116,268 in 1890. During the same three years the hog receipts were 264,739 head in 1888, 331,525 head in 1889, 423,962 in the year just closed. The sheep receipts in the same year were 92,531 head in 1888; 69,003 in 1889 and 68,164in 1890. These statistics show the growing importance of the various yards. A wer healthy increase is illustrated in the cattle department, while the hog receipts have almost doubled in the last two years; onthe other hand the sheep movement has declined several thou- sand head. Thisis due to the fact thatin 1882 every farmer that had sheep seemed anxious to dispose of them, and all of the big markets inthe country were flooded with sheep; the result was thatthe country was practically cleaned of sheep and a dearth followed, which accounts for the decrease in sheep here and at other markets. Thecompletion and operation of traffic onthe new Merchants’ , which is just within sight of the , will create a great revolution n the live stock trade of this city and will make it the greatest as wellas the best live stock and horse and mule market in the country. The Union Yards are admirably located on the river front at the foot of Bre- men avenue and in direct connection with the railroad and river advantages, thereby facilitating receipts and shipments in the best possible manner. Of late an important chan has been made in the transfer of stock billed from [Illinois and other points east of the river. Hithertothere has been a delay in stock movement from the Illinois side as a consequence of a _ ferryboat being depended on from the Illinois side, necessary to have a at Venice. But now stock comes direct to the ns and is unloaded right into the pens herefore avoiding delay and the driving of stock through the street. This important change is announced in the following circu- lar just issued by the Stock Yards company: Arrangements have just been perfected by which all stock billed to the Union Stock Yards will be an- loaded right at the main yards, St. Louis, instead of at Venice, as heretofore, thus avoiding driving and delay. When shipping to our firm you will please be care- ful to have your stock billed to our address: Union Stock Yards, St. Louis, via Wiggins Transfer. This information applies to all stock coming by rail from Illinois. Your compliance will save delays, and work to your own as well as to our interest. A BIG IMPROVEMENT, a till another improvement has been made to the yardsin the opening up Friday ofa magnificent horse and mule department and sale stable on Bremen ave- nue and Hall street. and includes chutes, mule pens anda very handsome stable for horses as well as for their-sale. Overfive hundred mules can ve conveniently and nicely cared for at one time and 300 horses. The new rail facilities and switch p tems together with the advantages of the Merchants’ Brid give age the opportunity of unloading di- rectly at the yards with shipments necessity of driving through the streets, as has for years past been the general order of and mule traffic at the Union Yards shows that it has not been reached by any yards The Sanaiots of hogs and mules in 1888 were 15,047; 1n 1889, 25,394, and 82,106 for the pose double an increase as compared to 1887.

This firm, 4 their long experience and able and effi- ‘cient handling of consignments, have in- creased their business from at present their annual sales willreach sev- eral millions..-The best year in volume of busi- ness was 1890, the year just closing, and no better evidence is required to show . the mer- its and standing of the firm. Financially the firm is well todo, havinga large capital and an uniimited credi® and are prepared to carefully handle any and all consignments intrusted tothem at either yards. Their trade is far reaching, covering Iowa, Missouri, Iilinois, Tennessee, Texas, . the In- dian Territory and Kentucky. Wheeler, James & Co. have made a lasting name In the live stock commission trade, and thelr trade reaches every stock-growin point accessible to St. Louis. The personne of the firm is composed of Mr. R. T. Wheeler, Oharles James and J. 8. McKinnon, names familiar to all of the stock-growing country inthe West. During the year just closed the firm’s sales aggregated between $2,500,000 and $3,000,000, showing a very healthy increase of business over the year preceding, and hence an expansion to new territory. For The latter firm give much credit to the Posr- DISPATCH’S enterprise. Every correspondent and stockman they deal with take the Post- DISPATCH and are guided by itintheir ship- ments tothis market. The hog market. is Aiandled with much care byMr. R. T. Wheeler, while the cattle and sheep branch of their trade is represented by Messrs. Charles and Burt James. The office business, and it is bet 4 large too,is cared for by Mr. D. P. Richardson, who is as well Secretary of the Union Live Stock Exchange. The thread of their trade circles many States, viz.: Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Texas, the Indian Nation, Missouri, Nlinols and Iowa, as well as other parts of the country. They are backed by conservative business manage- ment and a financial standing second to none in the country. i The first sign one sees as he enters the busi- | Hess row in the Union Stock Yards building is that of Overstreet & McNeilley, which about a r ago succe d J. W. Overstreet & Co., ut is still in its personnel identified with the same names, Messrs. J.W. Overstreet and J. A. McNeilley, that gave it the prestige that ithas had for twenty years past. Both of these gentlemen by their able business ideas, indisputable integrity and undoubted finan- cial worth have richly wonthe generous pa- tronage given them by the trade. Like their capital the public confidence in them is prac- tically beyond limit. They havea long line of correspondents all over the country and each year adds moretotheir trade. Every year has shown a steady, and not a slow gain either, in their extensive business, which now covers Kentucky, Mis- souri, Tennessee, the’ Indian Territory, Ar- kansas and*lIllinols. They aptly feel the mérits of the PosT-DISPATCH in a reliable re- flex of the Union Stock Yards daily business and to it attribute much of the-new business coming to the yards. Mr. J. W. Overstreet has Charge of the hog and sheep sales; Mr. J. A. McNeilley attends Strictly to the office duties,and Mr. Philip Hays sells the cattle. Another firm, which stands second to none inthe live stock commission trade of the country, is that of Hull, Steele & Co., at the Union yards. They are one of the very oldest houses of the kind in the country, and wher- ever stock is raised and shipped in all the West the name of Hull, Steele & Co. is known. The*business qualifications of the firm stand as solid as granite, and like it also their financial credit. So, with all these rich features, coupled with a strict sense of agg | and unlimited business experience, their trade last year represented close on to $3,000,- 000 and was drawn from Illinois, Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri, Arkansas, the Indian Territory and other points. Every one of theif numerous correspondents is on the subscription lst of the PostT-DISPATCH, andtothis paper and its wide circulation they lay the cause of considerable enlarge- ment of territory to draw from in their business. Col. Hull and Charley Wells sell the hogs and sheep and Zepp Steele attends to the business of the cattle department. In the style of its firm name one of the most recent additions to the Union Stock Yards’ rosperous business firms is that of assidy Bros. & ~Hines Commission Co. While it is just a month old in mame, itis notin work and reputation, that feature going back a number of years. The new firm name was necessary by the late death of D. 8. Irons, President of the D. S. Irons Commission Co. The death of Mr. Irons consequently involved the reorganization and incorporation of the new firm. The individual members of the firm are A.C. Cassidy, President; W. L. Cassidy and W. H. Hines, the latter being Vice-President. Each of these names stand out as indisputa- ble vouchers of character and worth, and has given them a trade at the back of which stands abundant capital and careful and reliable business methods. Their business relations entwine no less than seven large States, as follows: Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, Illinois, Texas, Indian Territory and Kentucky. In speaks of the Post-DISPATCH asa refiex of the markets Mr. Hines said: ‘‘The PostT-Dis- PATOH is doing much good, #nd is giving the live stock industry more prominence than it has ever hitherto enjoyed.’’ A GOOD PLACE TO SHIP. Let it be said that shippers, feeders, farm- ers and stock raisers generally cannot do bet- ter than to consign their stock to the Union Yards. All stock forwarded will receive prompt attention. Full market prices and uick returns are guaranteed by all of the drms doing business there. Tue A.
