THE UNION sTOCKYARDs.
a Big Institution-How 1t Is Growing in
Favor--The Best Yards in the Coun-
try and Honest Market.

A Journal reporter visited the Union Stock
yards yesterday, and took a stroll about the
buildings and grounds To say that every thing
thereaDouts is in frst-class order, is hardly put
ting 1t strong enough. In several respects these
yards are superior to any in the country, and
they are constantly growing in favor with ship
pers and are gaining territory continually, and
making inrOads on trade that has hitherto gone
to other markets.
The stock pens now cover ten acres and have
capacity equal to the proper stabling Of 900
head of cattle or mules and $4,000 hogs. Each
of these pens is divided into compartments, or
smaller pens, 40x96 feet in size, each pen being
complete in itself yet connecting with the others
by means OF gates. The pens are covered with
excellent roofs furnishing full protection against
all sorts of weather, being cool and com Portable
in summer and warm In winter Sewer pipes
laid throughout insure complete drainage and
cleanliness. 1t Is conceded by everyone that
these yards have the finest and most complete
arrangements OF any yards In the world for
handling and caring for stock.
The supply of water is furnished by large
duplex steam pump, manufactured by Dean
Bros, of this city, from driven well 107 feet
deep and ia purer and better than our city sup
ply. These pumps are capable of supplying
1000 gallons of water minute.
The geographical position OF Indianapolis be-
Ing such that 1t is on a direct line between the
great stock producing points iu the West and
Southwest and the markets of the Middle and
Eastern States, the distance from st. Louis to
the prominent Eastern markets, via Indianapo-
lis being about one hundred miles less than by
other routes; the very complete arrangements
now afforded for the care prompt transfer of
stock at this point. in connection with the fact
that this locality Is in the center of the great
corn-growing regions. and consequently in the
center of the great reproducing regions, it is
becoming the favorite route between the points
named.
During the past year a score Of Eastern pack
ing houses have turned their attention to Indi-
annapolis for their summer supply OF hogs, which,

mand mere always full and steady. Besides this,
1t is looked upon as an honest market, with less
against the shipper than is offered by any of Its
competitors. The fall and winter season is ex-
peeted TO be more thnn usually lively.

The New Insane Hosnitals.

The Insane Hospital Commissioners were in
session yesterday afternoon considering the
question of locating the sites for the hospitals
to be erected at Richmond and Logansport, but
no conclusive action was reached. MIR. Coffin,
of Richmond, whose farm is regarded as about
the most eligibly situated for tho asylum to be
erected at that point, appeared before the
board and presented his interests A delega-
ton from Logansport will also be given a hear
ing this morning. 1t is claimed that the
railroad company will not build a switch out to
the site whereitis desired to locate the Logans-
port hospital, the cost would be at least S12,-
600, which would be larger amount then they
would be justified in expanding. Several of the
towns which were interested in the strife TO
secure one of the hospitals hef0se the locations
were decided upon, are disposed, therefore, to
not regard their chances as entirely hopeless
commissioners to make a change.
