The new university has not "yet boon lo
cated , neither 1ms It been named , but It Is an
assured fact beyond question. It will bo lo
cated cither In Kast or South Lincoln , as
those ( realities arc easy of access trom the
city proper , and the salt basins and West
Lincoln packing houses occupying that sec
tion of country adjacent to the city. That
the location will cause an enlarged boom in
real estate for the umuciUato locality In which
U Is situated , | ; ocs without question , and
consequently a .struggle .11110112 dealers in

the lir.i : tlmt the York , Central Cltv and
Mallnlicn college delegations departed home
' I ward 'lean/disappointed , and that they will
ftt once commence the work of strengthening
their local schools ahe.uly established. But
such action , while not unexpected , will not
diminish the ardor for tlio university as lo
cated at Lincoln , and the patties who aio
helping the university locally will allow
nothing to Intel foic with its success. The
boom In real estate Is alieady noilcablofroai

STOCK X'AKDS IMPROVEMENTS.
Able Business Mori Racked Iy Capital
Make u Solid Institution.
A visitor at the stock yards at South
Omaha is always surprised at the won
derful progress that has been made there
during the past few months. New pack
ing houses have been openedtho yards
have been enlarged and a great many
other improvements made. One of Ihc
important institutions of South Omaha
is the Union Slock Yards bank. While
its establishment 1ms been under consid
eration by tlio Stock Yards company for
the convenience of live stock men and
others , for the past yeartho actual open-
inc of its doors was delayed until No
vember 24 last. The management of the
stock yards company did not see or ex
pect any profit in a bank for the lirst
year's business , but witli characteristic
energy and foresight believe it one of the
best thing ? that could be done to advance
their large Interests in South Omaha and
push Omaha's hvo stock interests to tlio
front. Tlie directors of the bank are
largely heavy stock holders in the stock
yards company and tire alive to booming
the yards and advancing the interests ot
every stock man doing business or sell
ing his stock nt South Omaha. Among
the stonkholdors of the Union Stool :

The ollice is located in the exchange
building in the room originally con
structed and re.serveil for that purpose.
It has a good vault atul the oflicu is lilted
up with good counters and desks uro-
tectcd by wire screens and is the picas-
antes ! room in the building. Hall's Safe
and Lock company furnished the safe
which la of Hall's latest and best work
with time lock and every security for
safe keeping of money. Tnoro are new
signs in raised cilt letters on the west ami
south sides of the building put up during
the past week that on the west side
being plainly read from tlio depot.
The Union Stock Yard bank is incor
porated under slate laws with capital of
8200,000 and authority to increase to
500,000 whim desired. The success of
this venture sinfco its establishment less
than four weeks ago is something
phenomenal. Almost every live stock
commission iirm doing business in
South Onmha have transferred their busi
ness to the Union Stock Yard bank , lo
cated in same building with their o Hi cos
and as handy for them as a now jackknife -
knife for the proverbial small boy. Men
in other lines of bu Incs seem also to
thoroughly appreciate the difference be-
twcen doing > business at home and up
town , and have largely transferred their
financial transactions lo tlio Union Stock :
Yard bank. Now accounts came in also
from workmen and others whoso homos
or interests uro centered in South
Omaha in fact scarcely a day passes
that dons not show an increase ol from
two or throe to six or eight new depositors ,
while thu volume of transactions from
the old accounts is steadily increasing
day by day. Hanks outside of this city
also had the Union
Stock Yard bank a
convenience deposits being made there
lor tlielr credit and the use of the home
shipper who thus receives ins money
without any rink in transmission to liini.
The aim of the bank seems to be lo
thoroughly and systematically advance
the interests of South Omaha , the Union
Slock yards and the interests especially
of ' shippers and feeders of Jive stock in
Ni'bniMka and the west.
The heavy backing which the bank has .
and the favor with which it has Iturn ) re
ceived will injure its prosperity in the
future.
