FIRST NATIONAL TO
BUILD AJBW HOME
Hat Secured All Shares in Board of
Trade and Will Erect Twelve
Story Building There.
HOME FOR nRST TRUST TOO
As repeatedly foreshadowed in
The Bee. despite half-denial, the
Board ot Trade corner it to be the
home of the First National bank.
The I'nion Securltleu company,
com posed largely of the stockholders
of the First National bank, has
finally come out In the open and an
nounced that It is the real purchaser
of the Board of Trade at Siiteentu
and Farnam streets, and that it will
build a twelve-story building, part of
which will be occupied by the First
National bank. The last of the stock
in the Board of Trade company has
been secured.
The First National has long
wanted to get uptown; that is, it ha
wanted a location on Sixteenth street.
For a long time it has had an eye on
the Board of Trade corner, hut up ta
the time of the fire that destroyed
the building it was not for sale.
Hays Srkllta Comer.
In tha meantime, tha Union Securities
company, representing the First Na
tional, bought the BchllU corner at Plx-
isentn and llarney. and began to talk
of building there. They even employed
an architect to make a few sketches of
a possible building, but when tha Board
of Trade fire occurred they Immediately
opened negotiations again for the nur-
chase of that corner. It waa then that
the l nlon Hecnrltfes company, represent
ing the First National bank, which waa
mysteriously spoken of at an "eastern
syndicate," purchased some S3 per cent
or the stock of the Board of Trade com
pany of the leading atockholders In the
company. Thct left only a few scat
tered share around tha city. While the
work of buying up theae scattered shares
waa going on, an attempt waa made to
keep aa a profound secret the fact that
the bank was Interested In tha Board of
Trade corner.
Realises Its Dream.
Now that tha last of tht shares has
been purchased, the total costing about
$623,000, and the Schllta comer has been
told by the bank for what It paid for It
some weeks ago, the bank admits that It
is to occupy the Board of Trade corneiy
the dream of Ha existence for several
years.
The new twelve-story building Is to be
of Colorado marble and enameled brick.
The bank Is to occupy the second floor
of the building, while nine stores are
make up tho first floor. Thare are to
be seven of these on the Sixteenth street
front and two on the Farnam street
front The First Trust company Is of
course to share the second floor with
the bank.
Beef Prices to the
Retailers Move Up;
Consumer Must Pay
- Dressed beef haa taken nnh.,' .a.
vance of I centa a pound to the retail
ers. Halves of beef are from 13 to Is
cents a pound, which means a corres
ponding increase to the consumer.
A meat market man eaplatna that an
advance of thla nature must naoeunriiw
effect short cuts, sirloins, round steaka
and shoulder steaks more particularly,
because a sharp advance on the Inferior
cuts ot the beef cannot be made and a
ready aale secured.
These prices were charged this morn
ing at varloua markets: Short cuts, 30
cents a pound: sirloins, ZTH cents: round
steaka, 25 cents; shoulder steak, it) centa.
A scarcity of cattle on the market Is
given as a reason for thla raise.

City Hall Slate in
Place of Jack Ryder
City Commissioners Butler, Kugel and
Hummel and Mayor Dahlman have
agreed to substitute Edward Btmon for
J. J. Ry.ler on the city hall slate for the
city election on Vay 4.
This action was taken at an executive
session. Commissioner McUovern says
this Is satisfactory to him and It la under
stood that Commissioner Wlthnell, who
is out of the city, will likewise consent
to the change.
"There Is a general feeling that Ryder
will not pull through at the election,"
explained the mayor.
Mr. Byder conferred with the mayor on
this subject.
There haa been considerable speculation
recently regarding what action the com
mlssloners would take on thla and It
was aot altogether a surprise that Simon
waa aelected to fill In the administration
slate.
. Mr. Byder declines to comment upon the
situation. He attended today's council
meeting and gave no evidence of concern
on account of the action of hla colleagues.
It it the Intention of the city commis
sioners and the mayor, minus Ryder, to
Mart at once on their campaign with
