The Packing Houses.

It is quito walk across the yards to
the packing houses, and during the stroll
the visitor passes the exchange, a low
brick and stone building in which many
firms of dealers and brokers in meats,
both on foot and dressed, are located The
packing houses themselves arc enormous
institutions. 4 dozen separate concerns
operate them, the two most important of
which are Swift d Co. and Armour * Co.
This Information is probably gratuitous,
for their brands are to be read in ali parts
of the known world, but IA writing upon
the packing houses that did not mention
them would miss a most important alln-
sion. i haven t any idea which OF the two
is the larger, but / am told that the Ar
mour people kill more pigs, while the
Swift folks butcher more cattle. ! ran
ncrOss Swift's first and was guided by an
employee detailed for that purpose through
the packing houses Of that concern.
The packing house guide is q most en-
Retaining creature. 1t is his delight to
tell startling stories of the number of kill
ings that may be accomplished in 4 day by
"our house and TO hold up all other kill
ers and packers to well deserved scorn He

The yards are perhaps quite as interest

practically seen them all The blocks are

buses that force their way among the cat

not exactly like any other vehicle with

by the proprictors Of the packing houses

letters he had received and the results OF the
conferences he had held with many eminent

POSITION OF THE STATE DEMOCRACY
At the meeting Of the State Democracy leaders
at the Reform Grub, this city, last night. the
most important discussion over the third
ticket question, and on this ex-Mayor Grace, MI
Fairchld and others made speeches Inc senu.
ment of the meeting was strongly in favor or
the nomination and cordial support OF an inde-
pendent Democratic Ant-Hn State ticket. How
ever some Of the speakers advised against action
on the question at the state DenocTacys County,
Convention this evening. 1t was admitted that
Mr. Hill had been using his peculiar influences TO
prevent any action favorable to third ticket
but the probability Of his success in that direc-
ton was ridculed
After the adjournment, Mr.. Grace, while re-
fusing to admit that the third ticket question
of those discussed said
I'VE stand in this way on that matter. Inc
leaders are in favor of it, but the rank ana HE
are against it..
Those who stood close to Mr. Grace wheh ne
gave out this information say that they saw
his left eyed drop as he mentioned the RANK
and file
Mr.. Fairchild said that the third-ticKe' ProJ-
ect had not been disposed or at the mee'ihe'
but was still open -
az lie by no means certain. he said that an
independent State ticket may not be nominated
The remark was understood to refer 10 the
boasts of the Tammany and Hill men, whlch
were frequently heard yesterday, that the tnlrd
ticket proiect was dead No attempt was made
last evening al this meeting to indorse the I'M
ticket although Snapper Democrats were LOUD
in their predictions yesterday that resolution
would be adopted pledging the New-Iork State
Democracy to the support of David j. Hill and
his associates on the Saratoga ticket.
