ST. LOUIS, MO., 1884. Entered according to the Act of Congress in tlie year 1884 by H. M. JONES, in tlie office of tlie Librarian of Congress, at Washington, D. C. P R K KAC K As a member of the Metropolitan Police Force of St. Louis for the past nine years, I have been favored with the best possible opportunity to acquire a thorough knowledge of the city, and to locate such places as are usually sought for by strangers, whether here on business or for pleasure. Moreover the growth and improvements of St. Louis have gone far beyond the knowledge of even the oldest and most active resident, and not unfrequently are officers called upon for directions to various points by that class. I have therefore carefully pi'epared this Book with a view to covering the whole ground for all classes. It has been the chief object cf my labor to make the Guide as complete and perfect in all respects as it is possible to have such a work. Careful attention has been paid to every feature, even to the advertisements in which is presented a full exposition of the largest and best business interests of the city. Not only will strangers find it an invaluable vade mecuni in their tour of St. Louis, assisting them in their sight-seeing, and enabling them to traverse our streets with almost the same ease as an old resident, but citizens already acquain- ted with many of the points of interest around them will be surprised to learn that there are numerous new objects here for their attention. The Guide will be revised annually and in each new edition such corrections and addenda will be made as the general progress of this great metropolis demands. Truly Yours, H. M. JONES, Patrolman Metropolitan Police Force. St. Louis, Mo. INSTRUCTIONS -»o>©4o I. Locate yourself by reference to City Map on last page of the Book. II. The Business Index has reference to cuts and adver- tisements of business establishments, which can readily be located by turning to list of streets intersected by street cars. III. For Residences refer to City Directory (which can be found in almost every store) for house number, and turn to street list, as above instructed to locate, and take street cars according to directions. Conductors will always explain to strangers their most convenient route when leaving the car. STEEETS A^T> NUMBEES. It is a very easy matter for the stranger to find any person or place he may be in search of in St. Louis. He can find the person by consulting the city directory, which will be found in all drug stores and business houses. When he has the address of the party he must bear in mind these facts : All streets running parallel with the river have numerical names, and these names are given in numerical order as the streets recede westward from the river ; thus Second street is two blocks from Ihe wharf, Fourth street four blocks, and Twenty-fifth street, twenty-five blocks from it. In the western portion of the city, a street will occasionally be found bearing some other than a numerical name. In such instances consult the city directory, and you will find the number of that street. Say it is Leffingwell avenue you want, the directory will tell you Leffingwell avenue runs from 2801 Laclede avenue, north to 2800 Dodier street. By this means, you arrive at the information that Leffing- well avenue is twenty-eight blocks from the river and its other name is Twenty-eighth street. Market street and Laclede avenue, divide the city into North and South, and the cross streets are numbered ac- cordingly, North Fourth, North Ninth, South Fourth, South Ninth, etc. The odd numbers are oh the north and west sides of the streets ; the even numbers on the south and east sides. 8 Police Guide and Directory op St. Louis. Each block on all streets counts 100 numbers, although the number of buildings on that block may be two or twenty. For instance, 1109 Market street is only 11 blocks from the river, or between Eleventh and Twelfth streets, and 307 north Fourth street is only three blocks north of Market street. The number of the street will immediately and unmis- takably explain your location. If you are at the corner of Jefferson and Franklin avenues you will see the number 900 over a door on the former street, which means you are 9 blocks north of Market, and the number 2400 over a door on Franklin avenue, which means that you are just 24 blocks west of the river. If you are in doubt about your ability to get back to your starting point consult a policeman. A GLIMPSE AT THE HISTORY OF ST. LOUIS. The first St. Louis, an early French settlement on the west bank of the great Mississippi, and upon the present site of this splendid metropolis, was founded February 15th, 1764, when August Chouteau, whose descendants still live among us, proceeded, under the directions of Laclede, a French fur trader, to fell the forest and clear off the ground which now embraces several blocks of large business buildings, in the vicinity of Barnum's Hotel, Sec- ond and Walnut Streets. Upon this spot the first huts that marked the approach of civilization in this region were erected, and a permanent Trading Post was established. Laclede gave it the name of St. Louis, in honor of the king of France — Louis XV — then upon the Throne. But it was not until the year 1804 — 28 years after the Declaration of American Independence, and when it had become a part of the territory of the United States — that the old trading post began to assume its real importance. The irresistible onward march of American civilization, building towns and cities upon the camp grounds and play places of the so-called " noble red men," soon extended westward, across the Mississippi, and St. Louis became the central rendez- vous for the hardy pioneer. In 1823 St. Louis was incor- porated as a city, and she has steadily maintained her growth up to her present magnificence and round popula- tion of nearly 500,000 souls. 10 Police Guide and Directory of St. Louis. In 1815 the first steamboat was launched upon the besom of the gorgeous Mississippi, and a better system of transfer was established. This enterprise has grown with the city and its surroundings, until to-day 155 boats, of various ton- nage, operate from the St. Louis wharf to all points up and down the great Father of Waters, and penetrate various sections of the country by way of its tributaries. The first railroad constructed west of the Mississippi was the Missouri Pacific, and the first train of cars went thun- dering westward to the State Capital November 1, 1855, and the Ohio and Mississippi, the first railroad from the East, reached East St. Louis in 1853. But the present grand railroad system of St. Louis was inaugurated in 1876-7, which has since linked us, so to speak, with every town and city of any importance in the entire country and various points in Mexico. With 155 steamboats constantly plowing the great water ways with which we are connected, with 18 railroads run- ning an average of 200 passenger and 184 freight trains daily, and from a glance at the tables which represent our commercial attitude, one cannot refrain from the belief that St. Louis is indeed a great city. But we cannot dismiss you with this belief alone : we urge that St. Louis will one day be the greatest commer- cial center on the face of the earth. One development alone is necessary to this end — and it is one which should govern and direct the social, political and commercial influ- ence of every citizen of the central and western sections of the country to its accomplishment — Police Guide and Directo^iy ok St. Louis. 11 the landing of ocean steamers at our wharf. No thinking man will dispute the statement that with the permanent fitness of the Mississippi channel from St. Louis to the gulf for the operation of ocean steamers from our wharf to every seaport in the world, this point will drain a far greater expanse of agricultural, mining and manufac- turing country than any other commercial centre under the sun, affording an irresistible attraction for business enter- prise which will collect the largest population in all this bustling world.

The age of the city of St. Louis is by no means an indication of the power it wields and the important part it plays in the great world of commerce. It seems as if it were truly destined to be the Future Great city of the continent. Its arms of iron and steel stretch out to the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, to the great lakes of the north and to the Gulf of Mexico. It lies in the center of a most fruitful valley and is the depot for all the rich resources of an immense territory, whose products are boundless in their abundance. Its prosperity is unmistakable, and all the capitalists of the world bend their eyes upon it and read in its present affluence a promise of the most extraordinary fruitfulness. The visitor will find in the following pages a most interesting exposition of the trade and commerce of the city, which are the guide posts to its future. The figures are taken from the report of Secretary Geo. H. Moro^an (of the Merchants' Exchange) for the year 1883. COAL Is an important item of its wealth, as will be seen in the statement of the receipts and shipments of this product. The figures given show the great growth in this branch of commerce between the years 1878 and 1883. In 1878 the coal received here amounted to 32,007,550 bushels. In 1883 the amount was 50,687,225 bushels, of which 1,857,600 bushels were received from Pittsburg; receipts of coke, 6,956,500 bushels ; receipts of Anthracite, 52,000 tons. 16 Police Guide and Directory of St. Louis. FREIGHT. The increase in freight transportation in the past ten years is here shown. It has nearly doubled. The amounts given are in tons : 1883 1874 Receipts by Rail 6,940,723 629,225 3,165,093 737,765 " " River Total Number Tons 7,569,948 3,902,858 In addition to the receipts of 1883 there were 228,950 tons of lumber, logs and shingles in rafts received from the Upper Mississippi and 2,335 from the Upper Missouri river. The amount of freight, in tons, shipped from St. Louis by railroad and river in the same years, was as follows : Total by Rail ... '• " River Total Number Tons 3,468,216 677,340 4,145,555 1874 1,230,676 707,325 1,938,001 In this same connection an estimate may be given of the amount of traffic across the Mississippi at St. Louis. From St. Louis to East St. Louis and Venice, by bridge, ferries and teams, 1,762,824 tons were transferred during 1883, and from East St. Louis and Venice to St. Louis, by the same highways during the same time, a total of 4,118,- 052 tons were carried. ELEVATORS. Before introducing the important subject of the grain and flour traffic of this city, it will be well to say something in conjunction with our freight traffic concerning the Eleva- tors and their capacities for receiving and storing grain ; Police Guide and Directory of St. Louis. 17 also, to give the stranger to these subjects, an idea of the rates charged for storage by the various Elevators. There are thirteen of these immense buildings, some situated near Union Depot, and the others along the river front on either side. Their capacities are enormous, and they are con- stantly kept filled with the product of the surrounding ter- ritory. They employ large forces of men and are among the most profitable investments in this neighborhood. A better conception of their value will be had by reference to the following table : Name of Elevatoi-. Capacity lor Bulk Grain. Additional Capacity for Packages.

St. Louis holds the proud reputation of being the hirgest primary flour market in the United States. The business for 1883 in this important item shows a falling off in some particulars. The amount manufactured was slightly in excess of 1882, but the receipts were considerably less than for the previous year. Whde other cities show by their published returns of receipts and shipments a greater amount handled, these returns include flour merely passing through these cities, and do not give a correct index of the flour trade at these points. The export business fell off considerably, especially after harvest, the high price of wheat putting flour at a price which curtailed greatly the foreign demand. The exports of the year from St. Louis and from country points by St. Louis dealers amounted to 595,603 bbls., of which 252,322 bbls. went to England, 139,004 bbls. to Scotland, 41,361 bbls. to Ireland, and the balance to the Continent, with the exception of 10,663 bbls. to Nova Scotia. Two new mills were built during the year, the Plant's Roller A and the Meramec, and the capacity of others increased, giving a capacity per 24 hours of 13,095 bbls. The amount manufactured in 1883 was 1,892,633 bbls., and was only exceeded by Minneapolis, which produced 3,996,220 bbls. The flour manufactured by mills outside of St. Louis, but owned by St. Louis members of the Merchant's Exchange > was 1,003,330 bbls. The amount received here by millers during the year was 1,585,670 bbls. The receipts and manufactures for 33 years, and ship- ments for 19 years are given in the following table : 20 Police Guide and Directokv of St. Louis. Year. Beceipts. Uanufact. Bbl3.

The total amount of flour handled by millers and dealers in 1876 was 2,767,974 barrels, and in 1883 the total was 4,240,217 barrels. GRAIN. The total receipts of grain at St. Louis during 1883, in bushels, was as follows: Wheat, 15,000,704; corn, 20,001,450; oats, 6,452,757; rye, 532,270 ; barley, 2,860," 798. The total shipments of grain in bushels for the same period were: Wheat, 6,430,765; corn, 15,199.849; oats, 3,047,559 ; rye, 393,557 ; barley, 180,900. COTTON. St. Louis feels a glory in her trade in Cotton. It has made rapid strides in the past 17 years and the market to-day has an agreeable importance among the other cotton markets Police Guide and Directory of St. Louis. 21 of the world. The business of 1883 was surpassingly large and a cause of great gratification. The gross receipts ex- ceed last year by 87,279 bales, and the net receipts reaching 296,760 bales against 240,517 bales during 1881-82. The bulk of the receipts came from Texas and Arkansas by the lines of the Missouri Pacific R. R. , while the receipts from the Texas & St. Louis R. R. over the Cairo Short Line were 13,684 bales. By the San Francisco line the receipts were 10,486 bales, and by boats from the lower river 9,121 bales. The Texas & St. Louis was completed and we may expect a large increase in receipts by that line during 1884. To accommodate the business by this route the St. Louis Cotton Compress Company erected during the year a ware- house and press at East St. Louis with a storage capacity of 40,000 bales. The shipments of the year reached 444,472 bales, of which 168,652 bales was taken by export buyers, princi- pally for the English market, and 274,055 bales went to the eastern manufacturing cities. The value of the 296,760 bales sold in this market was fifteen millions of dollars. The following table shows the receipts of Cotton for the past 17 years: Year. Bales. Year.

LIVE STOCK. To this city, by reason of its central location and its manifold transportation facilities, belongs the live stock trade of the conntry. It is the shortest possible route from the West to the East, and is admirably equipped for doing the business of the entire cattle territory south of central Iowa. Its stock yards have a capacity for -nearly 30,000 head, while the pork packing houses, located in them, kill about 12,000 hogs daily in the season. Secretary Morgan's report for 1883 gives the following receipts and shipments in St. Louis in the live stock line during that year, and adds regarding the business that there was a material increase in the receipts of hogs, and some gain in the receipts of horses and mules over previous years : Receipts: cattle, 405,090; hogs, 1,151,785; sheep, 398,612 ; horses and mules, 44,913. Shipments; cattle, 249,523; hogs, 609,388; sheep, 217,370 ; horses and mules, 44,543. Receipts of hog product for 1883 : pork, 9^656 bbls. ; ham and meats, 119,365,201 lbs. ; lard, 9,975,552 lbs. Shipments of hog product for 1883: pork, 75,239 bbls.; hams and meats, 163,150,959 lbs. ; lard, 43,740,073 lbs. TOBACCO. The receipts of leaf tobacco during 1883 amounted to 24,457 hhds. The shipments of leaf tobacco during 1883 were 8,683 hhds. In 1871 the receipts were 16,523 hhds, and the shipments 11,243 hhds. UWIOINJ" DEPOT. Union Depot is on the south side of Poplar street between Ninth and Twelfth streets. All trains arriving in or departing from St. Louis make this their terminus. It is the only depot in the United States where the through passenger on whatever route bent can step from one train to another and proceed on his journey without the annoy- ance and delay of an omnibus transfer. Still, it is not an imposing structure, nor is it in any sense a metropolitan depot. The trains centering here are sheltered under a series of large sheds, and often the passenger has to cross a half dozen tracks and trains to get to the coach and train he is after. Adjoining the sheds on the north is a two- story brick building of neat appearance, in vv^hich are the ticket offices, baggage rooms, lunch counters, dining hall and all the other departments familiar to travelers. The building and sheds were put up by a company organized in 1871 for the purpose of establishing "a union passenger depot and tunnel in St. Louis." The tunnel has been established. It begins at Eighth and Clark avenue, runs under Eighth street to St. Charles, where it curves into Washington avenue, beneath vv^hich it passes until it debouches upon the Illinois and St. Louis bridge at Main street. The present depot, however, is only a temporary structure — at least so it is claimed — and there is an occa- sional local agitation about tearing it down and replacing it with such a structure as the city deserves. Over 150 passenger trains arrive here and depart daily, carrying over 15,000 passengers. About 100 freight trains also pass under the sheltering sheds every day. Police are always at hand here and can be consulted for information. The street cars running north on the Twelfth street bridge carry passengers to Fourth and Pine. Then they are in the business portion of the city. All the railroad ticket offices are on Fourth street between Pine and Chest- nut. MISSOURI STREET CAR LINE. (OLIVE STREET.) OFFICERS. P. C.

Eads, who built the jetties, and conceived the idea of the ship railway across the Isthmus of Panama. It was inaugurated July 4th, 1874. The Bridge begins at 3d and Washington Avenue, and the eastern approach extends to Broadway in East St. Louis- Its length, including the approaches, is 6,220 feet, but the Bridge proper measures only 2,046 feet. Tunnel, Bridge and approaches measure 11,100 feet. The length of the center span is 520 feet, and of each side span 502 feet. The middle span is 55 feet above high-water mark, the side spans 50 feet. The arches are built of steel tubes. The estimated cost of the structure was $10,000,000. A good view of it can be had from the levee, and a fair idea of its strength and immensity can be had by making a trip across it. The view it affords up and down the river is extensive and beautiful, while from its center arch East St. Louis and the surrounding suburbs can be seen, while a splendid bird's eye view of St. Louis is furnished. w^M'El^ H.

One boat leaves the foot of Carr street ; another the foot of Spruce. Fare 5 cents each way. BAGGAGE REGULATIONS. All baggage received at Union Depot is stored in the baggage rooms at the east end of the depot building. The time allotted to such storage is 24 hours. Baggage left there over 24 hours will be charged for at the rate of 25 cents per day. Valises, hand satchels, baskets and bundles may be left in a room provided for that purpose in the gentlemen's waiting room. A charge of 10 cents is made for each package. In every case where luggage of any kind is left at the depot care should be taken to receive a brass check for the articles. This check must not be lost, as the article or articles stored will be returned only on presentation of the check. Under no consideration leave overcoats, hand satchels or bundles in the care of unauthorized parties, as they may be lost, when there is no remedy. If you can not "check" or store your articles carry them with you, by all means. PoLiCK Guide and Directory of St. Louis. 29 OMNIBUS, CARRIAGE & EXPRESS CHARGES. At Union Depot the stranger can suit himself about the style of vehicle he wishes to ride in. Carriages, Omnibuses and express and baggage wagons can be found along Poplar street, while street cars running down town pass over the Twelfth street bridge. The cars will take him into the business centre for five cents. This is the uniform charge on all horse car lines in the city. The Transfer Company's carriages and busses will deliver a passenger to any part of the city for fifty cents, and if tickets are purchased on the train, passenger and baggage are carried for this sum. The company's agents pass through each incoming train, and when a buss ticket is purchased from one of them he takes the passenger's bag- gage check, gives a duplicate of it, and there is no more trouble. Both are promptly delivered to the same address. Express or Baggage wagon and hack charges are regu- lated by the following city ordinance : " For the use of any hackney carriage, cab, or cabriolet, the owner shall be entitled to charge, demand and receive the following compensation, and no more : '"'•First — For conveying one or more passengers a dis- tance not exceeding one mile, one dollar." " Second — All public carriages, cabs and cabriolets shall be entitled to charge and collect two dollars for the first hour, and one dollar and a half for each additional hour." "Every owner, driver, or other person, having charge of any hackney, carriage, or other vehicle, who shall 30 Police Guide and Directory of St. Louis. extort, exact, charge, demand, or receive as compensation, any sum for the use or hire of an}' such vehicle, exceeding the compensation allowed by ordinance, shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and, on conviction thereof, be fined not less than $100, and, in addition thereto, the license of such vehicle, in whosoever's name the same may have been granted, shall be declared forfeited to the use of the city." " The owner or driver of any dray or baggage wagon, shall be entitled to demand and receive, for ten blocks, forty cents ; for any distance over ten blocks, the charge shall be according to agreement ; if there is no agreement, the charge shall be at the rate of forty cents for every ten blocks. In explanation, it may be added, that a mile in the city varies from thirteen to fifteen blocks. AERIYAL AND DEPAETURE OF TRAII^S. All departing trains leave Union Depot at the time given in the accompanying time-table. Ten minutes later they stop to take on passengers at the Main Street Depot on the bridge. A halt is made here by incoming trains also, to allow passengers wishing to go immediately into the business portion of the city, to disembark. Occasional changes are made in the railroad time-table, but these will be less frequent now since the adoption of the standard time. Anyhow, the changes are so slight that by getting to the depot ten or fifteen minutes before the time here given it will be impossible to miss your train. The present time-table went into effect Sept. 8, 1884. It is as follows : ♦Except Sunday; t Daily ; ||Except Saturday ; |Except Monday; §Sunday; irMonday. j Depart. j Arrive.

Over 150 steamboats use this harbor, and although the busy scenes of 20 years ago are absent, still the levee is full of bustle, and large quantities of freight are handled by the hundreds of men employed in that w^ork. The City Directrix, by which the stage of the water in the Mississippi is measured, will be found at the foot of Market street. It is a graduated iron rod running from the river bed up the levee to the railroad tracks. The time of the departure of Packets for special trips can always be ascertained by consulting the river advertise- ments in the daily papers.

HOTELS AE^D THEIR EATES. The complaint urged against St. Louis some years ago tiiat its hotel accommodations were entirely inadequate in large emergencies, can be urged no longer. The city has now two of the finest hotels in the United States, and the corridor of the new Southern surpasses anything of the kind to be found in this country. Rates are as reasonable as elsewhere, and guests, particularly in the large caravansaries, have their comforts carefully looked after. The "principal hotels and their rates are as follows : Southern — On Walnut street, and Fourth and Broad- way and Elm streets, one square south of Court House, and opposite Olympic Theatre on Broadway. Rates, $3.00 to $5.00 per day. PoucK Guide and Dikkctohy ok St. Lons. 30 Lindell — On Washington ave. and Sixth street, three squares west of the Bridge. Rates, $2.50 to $4.50 per day. Planters' House— On Fourth street, and Pine and Chestnut streets, and just north of the Court House. Rates $2.50 to $4.00 per day. ' 40 Police Guide and Directory of St. Louis. BariiLim's — On Walnut and Second. Rates, $2.00 to $3.00 per day. Laclede — On Chestnut and Broadway and Sixth street, nearly opposite the Court House. Rates, $2.00 to $3.50 per day. Hotel Barnum — Corner of .Sixth street and Washington avenue (European plan). Rates, $1.00 per day. St. James — Corner of Broadway and Walnut street. Rates, $2.00 to $3 50 per day. Hurst's Hotel — Fourth, between Olive and Locust streets (European). Rates, 75 cts. to $1 50 per day. In every instance, the rates given are for transients. Arrangements for permanent board can be made at a reduced figure at such hotels as accommodate permanent boarders. EESTAURAI^TS. THEIR CHARGES. There are plenty of good restaurants in the city, the rates are very reasonable, and the viands all that could be desired. Between the hours of 11 a. m. and 3 p. m. regular dinners, consisting of soup, fish, meat, vegetables, and tea or coffee may be obtained at from 25 to 50 cents. Dinner a la carte that is when special orders are given range from 35 cents to $1.00. The large number of clubs organized and existing in St. Louis, has reduced the number of high-priced restaurants, and the few now existing are not located in the business centre. By naming a few of the principal houses, the reader will gain some conception of the prices he will have to pay for his meals^ and the place best suited to his patronage : Tony Faust's, northeast corner of Broadway and Elm street, meals a la carte from 35 cents upward. Barchi's, Washington avenue between Fourth and Broad- way, meals a la carte. A good dinner for 50 cents. Browning's, Washington avenue between Fourth street and Broadway. Dinner 25 cents. English Kitchen, Broadway near Chestnut street. Dinner 35 cents. Morris' Restaurant, Seventh and Pine. Dinner 25 cents, Sprague's, Broadway opposite Union Market. Dinner 25 cents. Butler's, Fourth street, under Everett House. Dinner 35 cents. Hurst's Hotel Restaurant, Fourth, between Olive and Locust streets. Dinner 35 cents. Silver Moon Restaurant, Fine, between Eighth and Ninth. Dinner 25 cents. LINDELL RAILWAY--Yellow Line. OFFICEKS. John H. Maxon, - - President. J. C. Llewellyn, - - . Superintendent. Geo. W.

This line starts from Third street and Washington avenue, and runs west on Washington avenue to Garrison avenue, north to Lucas avenue, west on Lucas avenue to Grand avenue, thence on Dehiiar avenue to Vandeventer avenue, north to Finney avenue, east to Grand avenue, whence it returns to starting point as follows : South on Grand avenue to Morgan street, east to Compton avenue, south to Washington avenue, and east to Third street. The St. Louis & Illinois Bridge, Lindell Hotel, Hotel Barnum, St. Louis University, Simmons Hardware Co., Washington University, Pickwick Theatre, Uhrig's Cave and many wholesale business houses are directly upon the line. Jo J- G] a' G a v\ G S( E \ a 1 LODGII^GS. The traveler who is in search of a night's lodging only? can obtain it at any of the hotels at reasonable rates, the prices ranging from fifty cents for a bed in one of the third- class houses, to two dollars in such hotels as the Lindell or Southern. Scattered all over the city, however, are lodg- ing houses where rooms may be rented by the night or week. These will be found in the central portion of the city, along Sixth and Seventh and on Market, Chestnut, Pine and Locust, as well as in the neighborhood of the Union Depot. In selecting such lodgings, the stranger must be careful to inquire from the policeman on the beat, the character of the house, as often " Furnished Rooms" signs are displayed on the fronts of houses of ill repute. A bed may be had in a good clean lodging house for as low as twenty-five cents, but it is seldom the traveler is for- tunate in his selection of such cheap lodgings. The ruling price is fifty cents for a night's lodging, and at this price, good accommodations may be expected. The stranger is by all means warned against entering the establishments which offer beds at ten, fifteen and twenty cents a night. They are patronized only by unfor- tunates, and are neither clean nor safe in any sense. If a stay of any length is comtemplated, arrangements can be made in good lodging houses within the area bounded by Sixth and Fourteenth streets, and Clark and Franklin avenues, for a room which can be had at from $1.50 to $5.00 per week, or at the rate of from fifty to seventy-five cents per day for less than a week. It will be found wise for the stranger to consult the policeman who walks the beat within which the lodging house is composed before entering into any negotiation for a room. This precaution will prevent mistakes that might be'costly. U. S. CUSTOM HOUSE ANTf POST OFFICE. The new Custom House and Post Office buildincr is located between Eighth, Ninth, Locust and Olive stre^'ets, and IS a magnificent structure, designed in massive archi- tecture and presenting a very grand and imposing appear- ance. It is four stories in height, and is surmounted by a large iron dome, from the top of which a fine view is ^"4!M!iA Jno. a. Scholtkn fob tb aits. Nos. 920 AND 922 OLIVE STREET.

Signal Service Department has rooms in the dome. There are elevators in the building and visitors should not fail to ascend the dome and take a bird's eye view of the city. EXPOSITION BUILDING. The Exposition Building sits on the site of the old Missouri Park. It covers two full squares, fronting on Olive, St. Charles, Thirteenth and Fourteenth Streets, and is a beautiful piece of modern architecture. It is one of the largest buildings in the country used for exposition pur- poses, built of pressed brick and stone ; it has three large and imposing entrances on Olive Street and a half dozen others on the side streets. The main floor, three galleries and the basement are given up to exhibits. In the very center of the structure and concealed by it is the Grand Music Hall, which will have a seating capacity of nearly 5000 persons.

COTTON EXOHAISTGE. St. Louis has a Cotton Exchange befitting its impor- tance as the largest interior cotton mart in the country. The Exchange building was completed and inaugurated last year. It is of stone and pressed brick, five stories high, and cost $150,000. It is situated at the southwest corner of Main and Walnut streets and occupies one-fourth of the entire block. The Exchange hall, which is 76x50 feet and 35 feet high, and the offices and reading room, are in the second story. The hall is finely equipped, and cotton men pronounce the Exchange the finest of the kind in the United States. St. Louis did a business in 1882 of 500,000 bales out of a total cotton crop of 6,500,000 bales. CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. It is nauseating to make continual boasts, but in the case of the Chamber of Commerce building, the acknowledge- ment is made by everybody that it is the finest structure in the world, devoted to business purposes of this kind. It is a grand structure of polished stone, six stories in height, and with a deep and extensive basement. It is located upon Third street, extending from Pine to Chestnut and covering half the block. The front on Third street is 223 feet and the depth 187 feet. The site cost $561,700, and the building nearly $1,000,000. The Merchants' Exchange 52 PoLicK Guide and Directoky of St. Louis.

All distances in the city are reckoned from the Court House, which occupies the square between Fourth street and Broadway, Market and Chestnut streets. For purposes of convenience it is considered the center of the city. It is a noble structure with four wings and a great iron dome, something after the style of the Capitol at Washington. The interior of the dome is highly ornamented and there 56 Police Guide and Directory of St. Louis. are beautiful oil paintings, executed by an eccentric but excellent artist named Wimar. The building was begun in 1852 and completed ten years later at a cost of $1,200,000. The dome rises to a height of nearly 300 feet above the street level, and is reached by a spiral iron staircase. Visitors rarely fail to ascend to the gallery at the top of the dome, from which a splendid view of the city and surround- ing country may be had on a fine day. By applying to the janitor before 4 p. m, access may be had to the dome- FOUR COURTS A^D JAIL. The Four Courts, which somebody says, "is archi- tecturally modeled after the Palace of the Louvre," is built of cream sandstone, and is one of the hand- somest pieces of architecture in the West. It was completed in 1871, and cost $750,000. The building, which occupies the block bounded by Eleventh, Twelfth and Spruce streets and Clark avenue, has a front of 330 feet on the last named street, with a depth of 75 feet, to which is added a semi-circular Jail in the rear. It is three stories high, and divided into five sections, consisting of a central section adorned with columns and surrounded by a large rectangular dome, two cupola divisions at the ends and the received portion between these. The amphithe- atre reached by passing through the main building forms the Jail, which is a shell of iron of the most approved pattern. The Jail is open to visitors from 3 to 5 o'clock p. M., daily, when the prisoners may be seen taking their exercise. "it'ftkiifi ,'ii«'''iir ,11 FOUR COURTS. Wholesale Dealer in Wines and Liquors, Nos. 13 to 17 South Third Street, ST. LOUIS, MO.

In the Four Courts building are the Criminal Court, the Court of Criminal Correction, the Police Courts, the Grand Jury Rooms, the offices of the Circuit and Prose- cuting Attorneys, of the Chief of Police, City Marshal and Sheriff. The Central Police Station also has its office here, and there is a Calaboose in the basement. The Dead Animal Contractor's office is on the Eleventh street side of the building, and the Coroner's office can be found at the corner of Eleventh street and Clark avenue. At the corner of Twelfth and Spruce streets is the Morgue, where the bodies of unidentified dead persons are exposed for three days. The Morgue is open day and night while any body is on view. Behind the Morgue is the gallows used for executions, and adjoining it on the Twelfth street side is a stable where the hoodlum wagon may be seen. The Four Courts is two blocks north of the Union Depot, on Twelfth street. THE POLICE. The reputation of the St. Louis police is not surpassed by any force in the country. They are " one of the finest." The Metropolitan Police force numbers about five hundred men. There is a chief, who, in conjunction with the Board of Police Commissioners, composed of four citizens and the Mayor, has control of the entire force. Under the Chief are six Captains and forty-five Sergeants. In addition to the regular patrolmen, there are a dozen detectives, as efficient and astute as any in the United States, who are under a sergeant or chief, and to whom is confided the secret woi"k of the department. The patrolmen are changed at 11 a. m. and lip. m., the day force going on POLKK GUIDK AND DiRKCTORY OF St. LOUIS. 61 their beats at the former hour, the night force at the latter hour. There is no permanent division of the men into night and day patrohiien, each officer doing day duty for three months, at the end of which time he takes a three months turn at night duty. The city is splendidly policed considering its magni- tude, and the limited appropriation for the purpose. No complaint comes save from the western suburbs where a large outlying territory is under the protection of a few mounted patrolmen. The headquarters of the Police Department is at the Four Courts. Here is the Chief's office, and here also are the offices and rooms of the Detectives, the Rogues' Gal- lery, the Police Commissioners' headquarters, and the office of the Central Police District. At this station, as at others, the patrol or " hoodlum" wagon can be seen. It facilitates the removal of offenders from the streets to the station house, in which district the otTense was committed. The mode of operation is this : The city is dotted with patrol boxes, small, round, green concerns looking like the old sentinel boxes. In each of these boxes is a telephone communicating with Police Headquarters and the district stations. All police have keys to the box, and so have many private citizens. When an arrest is made from any cause, fighting, drinking, or murder, or any other violation of the law, the patrolman goes to the nearest box, telephones the station, and in a few minutes th6 wagon comes carrying as many officers as the occasion requires, and the prisoner is put in and hurried away. By this arrangement the patrolman is not required to leave his beat in making an arrest. Strangers in need of any information should always address themselves to the police.

A stranger in a large city is apt to oflend against laws of which he is ignorant. For this reason I have made a list of the offenses wliich he is liable to commit unwilling- ly. All these are punishable by fines, and in some cases, as in that of carrying concealed weapons, the fine is very heavy. The following are all offenses against the law : Fast driving on the street. Riding or driving an animal with bell or bells. Driving a sleigh without bells. Playing ball or indulging in any other sport on the street that may frighten horses. Driving fast over the big bridge. Representing one's self as an officer of the law. Resisting or interfering with an officer. Disturbing the peace by loud noises. Rude or indecent behavior in or near a house of wor- ship.

The City Hall is a plain three-story brick building, on Eleventh, between Chestnut and Market streets, which the principal officers of the Municipal Government are occu- pying only temporarily. The building has been in existence many years, and may have to serve its purpose many more, as no move has yet been made for a new structure ; still the fact remains that this unattractive shell of a building is not meant to last forever, but will be replaced some time with a City Hall, of which the city may be proud. Both branches of the Municipal Assembly have their halls here ; the Mayor's office is in the building, with the offices of the Comptroller, Auditor, Collector, Register, Water Rates Commissioner, Board of Health and its officers, and indeed all the departments of the local govern- ment. The City Dispensary will be found on the Market street side, CITY HOSPITAL. The City Hospital occupies an immense building set in the midst of spacious cultivated grounds on the corner of Linn street and Lafayette avenue. It has accommodations for 4o0 male patients, who are admitted by permit from the City Physicians at the Dispensary in City Hall. The Hos- pital is one and one-half miles southwest of the Court House and the Union Depot (Yellow) cars from Fourth and Pine pass its doors. The Female Hospital is Six miles southwest of the Court House, and can accommodate 225 patients, who must also pass through the City Dispensary before being received here. Busses run from the terminus of the Market street cars. :i[|(llilf|||iiiilHi^Il llllilii,iilinii iiiiiiiu > i«k 1—1 The city institution for the care of the insane is situ- ated on the Arsenal street road, near Old Manchester road, about five miles southwest of the Court House. It is a large and handsome building, which cost the city nearly $1,000,000. There are spacious grounds around it and the location is one of the most picturesque and healthful around the city. It can accommodate 800 patients* comfortably. WATEE WOEKS & WATEE TOWER The City Water Works are at Bissell's Point, 3^ miles north of Court House, and :| of a mile east of Bellefontaine road. The buildings are handsome, and the works are thoroughly equipped. There are three engines, two of which are kept in action night and day. The two smaller are each of 1,000 horse power, the large one 1,200 horse power. Two of the fly-wheels are 2G feet in diameter, and weigh 3(; tons each ; the other is 32 feet in diameter, and weighs 4G tons. There are four settling basins ; each have a capacity of IH, 000, 000 gallons. They are each GOO feet long, 270 feet wide, and 12 feet deep. The water is pumped out of the river into these basins, and thence dis- tributed through the city. The ordinary capacity of the works is 30,000,0000 gallons per day ; but, with two engines at work, they can pump 56,000,000 U. vS. gallons in twenty-four hours. The water is raised about 200 feet. The works cost about $5,500,000, and the extension, now in process of erection, which will double their capacity, will cost about $3,500,000.. Take Broadway cars going north. The Water Tower is on East Grand avenue, about one mile southwest of the Water Works, and 3^ miles northwest of the Court House. It is a beautiful gothic column with ornamented capital and two bar iron railing, Within is the boiler-iron tube containing the water. Its height is 160 feet, and the top is reached by 365 steps, which wind between the outer wall and the iron tube. The capacity of the Tower is 56,000,000 gallons daily. From the top of the Tower you can look over the Fair Grounds, and get a good view of north St Louis. Take the Bellefontaine Cars, Third street and Wash- ington avenue ; fare, five cents. WATER TOWER.

The National Base Ball League had its origin in St. Louis and was organized by enterprising, but sport-loving, citizens. It is not surprising, therefore, that St. Louis is a great base ball town, or that it can call out as many " cranks," or enthusiasts, to a good game as any other city on the continent. The National game flourishes here, and there are several parks devoted to it. Police Guide and Directory of St, Louis. 89 Sportsman's Park is the ground on which the St. Louis Browns of the American Association play.

The St. Louis Museum of Fine Arts, known also as Crow's Museum, is located at the northeast corner of Lucas Place (Locust street) and Nineteenth street. It is a beautiful building of stone, in massive architecture, and was erected by Mr. Wayman Crow to the memory of a son who sacrificed himself to art. It is divided into statuary halls, a lecture room, known as Memorial hall, studios and galleries for the exhibition of paintings and drawings. The School of Fine Arts occupies a part of the building. The collection embraces some fine marbles and numerous reproductions in plaster paris of the most famous pieces of ancient statuary. Take Washington avenue or Olive street cars and get off at Nineteenth street. The conductor will direct you to the Museum. An admission fee of twenty-five cents is charged. The Pettes & Leathe Art Gallery is at the northeast corner of Sixth and Olive streets. Admission free. LIBRARIES. There are many fine collections of books in St. Louis, but they belong either to private institutions or to individu- als. Among the former the libraries of the Christian Brothers and of the St. Louis University are noteworthy as being large, select and very valuable. The public libraries are only two in number. Neither is free. MISSOURI STREET CAR LINE. (MARKET STREET.) OFFICERS. P. C. MoFFiT, - - . President. John R. Lionberger, - - - Vice-President. Wm. D. Henry, - . . Secretary. C. M.

In discussing the commerce and trade of St. Louis, I have pointed out the importance of the live stock business in St. Louis. To accommodate this trade there are two exten- sive stock yards, the National and the Union. The National Stock Yards are in East St. Louis, about one and one-half miles west of the river, and con- nected by a 'bus line with the eastern approach of the bridge. They are nicely situated and not subject to the occasional inundations from the overflow of the Mississippi. The yards embrace over 650 acres, 100 of which are enclosed and GC under shed. The grounds are laid out in blocks with paved avenues, upon each of which is one mile of cattle pens. By an elaborate system of mains and pipes water is distributed all over the grounds from the tank house, with a capacity of 600,000 gallons, on a neighboring creek. The cattle capacity of the yards is 20,000 head. The capacity of the covered hog house is 20,000 ; of the sheep house 10,000 head. The stable, 285 feet long, is fitted with stalls for 300 head, and the barns hold 2,200 tons of hay and 30,000 bushels of corn. The pork packing houses at the yards can kill 12,000 hogs a day, and the St. Louis Beef Canning Company, also located here, has a capacity of 1,000 head of cattle daily. The Allerton House, a spacious and handsome hotel, is located upon the grounds, and has among its guests, at all times, buyers from New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Pitts- burg, Buffalo, Cincinnati, Louisville, Nashville and other interior points. The Union Stock Yards are on the St. Louis side of the river, near the foot of North Market street. They cover an area of twenty-four acres, and their capacity is about one-third that of the National Yards. MISSOUEI EEPUBI^IOAI^ BUILDING. The Repuhlicafi building, at the southeast corner of Third and Chestnut, is one of the handsomest structures in the city. It is built entirely of iron in the chaste and Italian style of architecture, and is richly, but tastefully, ornamented on both the Chestnut and Third street fronts. Its height is five stories with a mansard roof.

The old office was on Chestnut St., between Main and Second, in the building now used for the Central Sub-Police Station. A more imposing building occupied this site fifteen years ago, but was destroyed by fire. Twice in its career the Republican has been tackled by the fire fiend, and each time lost but one day's issue of the paper. WASHll^GTON UNIYEESITY. This is a flourishing institute of learning. It is located on Washington avenue, between Seventeenth and Eighteenth streets, and is now in its twenty-seventh year. There are several buildings, and the total value of the property is over $1,000,000. Its departments are numerous; they embrace the classics, science, law, art and designing, a school of mines and a manual training school. An academic department is connected with tlie University, and there is also the female academy, known as the Mary Institute, which is of the highest rank. Mary Institute is located on the corner of Twenty-seventh and Locust streets. The Law School is on Lucas Place (Locust street) just west of Fourteenth. The Manual Training School is on Eighteenth and Washington avenue, and is considered the on!}' successful school of the kind in the United States. The Washington avenue yellow cars pass the door? of the University. ST. LOUIS U^TjVEESITY. This is the Jesuits' College, at Ninth and Washington avenue, immediately adjoining St. Xavier's church. It is the oldest college west of the Mississippi, and has a splen- did reputation throughout the entire Western country. Many of the best citizens of St. Louis have graduated from its halls. The grounds cover an entire square, and the series of buildings include the University Hall, one of the largest lecture halls in the city. In this same building is the University Library, which is very extensive and con- tains some rare and valuable volumes. The Jesuits have advertised the Washington avenue property for sale, and will build a new church and college west of Grand avenue within the next few years. CHEISTIAE^ BEOTHERS^ COLLEGE. The new College of the Christian Brothers is situated on Easton avenue, opposite the Cote Brilliante Race Track. It is not yet complete. The building at present occupied is the main edifice, to which wings of large dimensions will be added in time. The structure is a beautilul and attrac- tive one, and as it stands on a hill can be seen for a great distance. The Brothers' old college was at Eighth and Cerre streets, adjoining McDowell's College. Both build- ings have been torn down to make room for railroad and other improvements in that neighborhood. To reach the new college take the Franklin avenue cars and their Cote Brilliante extension. PUBLIC BUILDIJSTGS AI^D OFFICES. CITY INSTITUTIONS.
