The Abheuser Busch Brewing Association
or st. Louis, No, under the leadership OF
It's chief, Mr.. Adolphus Busch, is pioneer
III the brewing business of this country
Mr.. Adolphus Busch is really ma
poieon among the brewers, and can Justly
say like Caesar, .Veni, vidi, vici," as the
fine beers brewed by this association, are
preferred by all connoisscurs, and their
reputation is daily extending more and
more all over the world.
The inception of the businessdates back to
1852. In 1856 Mr. Eberhard Anheuser Sc
cured the plant by purchase from the Bava-
rian Brewing Company. In 1868 Mr..
Adolphus Busch, son-in-law OF Mr.. An
heuser, became partner. In 1873 he origi-
mated on scale of considerable magni-
tude system OF bottling beer to all parts of
the world. In 1878 the Incorporation
took place. under the present title. In
1850 Mr.. Adolphus Busch was elected presi-
dent, and the present executives are:
Adolphus Busch. president: Aug. A Busch,
vice president aud superintendent; Z. Muhle-
manu. secretary and treasurer; Adoiphus
Busch, tr., purchasing agent.
The following figures are very interesting
to a financial mind: 200 barrels in 1853:
10000 barrels in 1870; 100000 barrels
in 1850: 100000 barrels in 1855, and for
the fiscal year ending July, 500. this COM
pany is quoted with sales reaching nearly
million barrels.
The premises in st. Louis covers fully 100
acres. and embraces over forty-five blocks
We understand that the English syndicate
offered some three or four years ago S1O.-
Ooo,o0O FOR the plant, which was declined.
The 500 ton DE La Vergne ice machine is by
III tons the largest in the world. In the lot
Ting works 100, coo 600 bottles are corked
annually. The malt house has a capacity OF
100000 bushels. The loading capacity,
the plant being connected with the st. Louis
Iron Mountain X Southern Railroad by
means of the Manufacturers Railway COM
pany. is certainly remarkable. being rs
car loads 4 day. The plant consumes we
understand, one-;hirteenth OF the total
amount of water supplied to the city of st.
Louis, and 5000 car loads OF coal is the
annual allowance. 1t is stated that ESQ
refrigerator cars are owned and operated
and that about 4. 600 employ yes are occupied
i'll various capacities. The capacity OF the
plant is 100000 barrels per year and
when, in 1852, its front was built. the ex-
tent was not twenty-five feet. and the prop
rrty could have been purchased for a few
hundred dollars.

sttution, as the public well knows. is Mr..
Adolphus Busch one of the most benevolent
men of tie present generation. whose broad
andllberal views and bus nessintegrityh have
made his name a household word all over
the United States and Germany. Mr. Busch's
independent and liberal characteristics have
been strikingiy illustrated by his generally
taking the burden upon himself in all move
ments in favor of the bravvinr in,eres, Ne
