Sorry, we couldn't find anything matching "some 200 acres being devoted to yards, etc., while the balance is occupied by railroad tracks and car sidings. Before you, as you enter the main arch-way, is a town with twenty miles of streets, twenty miles of water-troughs, fifty miles of feeding troughs and about seventy-five miles of water and drainage pipes... Just inside the entrance to the Union Stock Yards is the Exchange building, where the visitor will find the offices and counting rooms of the men who practically transact the live stock business of Chicago. These are modestly styled commission men, but they are in reality merchants, and many of them are engaged very extensively in the cattle traffic, independently of their commission business."".
