= R [ Mk s and e o LN THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: SUNDAY, JUND o, 1ot other way. The Intest intelligence by special correspondent direct from the stables is that the horses aro on their feeb and. are doing o8 well as could Do expected siter the excitoment of the week. The Jubilee wes o little tco much for them, as they neyer tiad the honor of awning a great publio man'faf | amster bafara they outerad” tho service of fresent distinguished boss. THE REAPER PHASE. THESE EXCURSIONS ON FBIDAY AND SATURDAY 2id more to scquaint those who took partin * ey ~with the resources and manufseturing’| :upecities of .Chitago thon the yesding of & bundred wvewepsper articles could have which je to supplement the Chicago Biver, and to serve as the nuclens for a hundred mills; and they also saw that other section of whlc_h less fhes been ssid, but which is repidly becoming of squal ishportance, that southwastern part of the city which is g0 rapidly losing ite barrenness; and becoming covered with immense manufac- tories, and the homes of operatives. THE GREAT FEATURE THEEE is, boyond all guestion, the immenso resper-. torks of C. H. McCormick & Brothers, in which the cxcursionists lunched, snd the brosd ex- panses of which they partlv wandered over. This building, with its immensity of machines. and army of men, which has grown up from the emallest of beginnings, twenty-geven years ago, is but s type of tho progresa of the great Wost.- TThe incréasing demands of the farmers, needing more machines for their crops, have forcedl the works fo enlarge sgein aud sgain, motd mow it s thought that they aro large enough to meet as heary @ domand 88 can bemade on them. They began by making & hundred machines & year. They now make ftteen thonsand in the same time. LOCATION OF THE WORKS. ! Inorder to geb_elbow-room and bresthing &poce, the McCormicks decided to establish thoir Works in that vacant portion of the city alresdy referred to, and they purchased twenty-thres scros of ground on the West Brinch of tho o River, near the intersection of Blue g and Wostern avenues. Tho former sl Tesy is, the latter wil in the course of time be- come, one of the chief businesa &treets of Chi- cago. This locality is accessible by lake and canal, having a dock front of over 1,800 feet, and $¢ is slso the contre of the great network of rail- Toads that converge at Chicago. mzhme e ix are oc- Of theso twenty- acres over six cupied by immense buildings which are five stories in beight, lighted with gas and heated with steam, occupying threa sides of & square, ench side 360 foot Jong, With the engine-room snd s four-story middle building between the two wings. Ground wss broken for the founda-~ Yion in Augast, 1872, and the works are not yet entirely completed ; but ten thousand of their machines for the coming harvest sre well- for- ard toward completion. When the works are fully comploted their capacity will be TWENTY THOUSAND COMBINED MACHINES per sear. The Isbor of tus establishment i ‘done by 800 men. together with machinery rep- resenting an almost incradible amount of manu- &l power. Mechanica of all kinds sxo employed, 2nd the manufactory is in itself s village whero untiring Industry prevails. This machinery is so numerous &8 to defy computation. In fhe importsut wood department there are upright, circulsr, cross~cat, and bud esw Daniel's & Woodtor:hraplancrs; boring, morsti- ing, tenoning, matching, ehaping, sand-papering mnumifx'g ‘machines, which spoedily reduce the rough lsbor into tho necessary sbapes. In fbo iron Gopariment one first seés the panch- presses, where the iron iscnt into lengths, cold, From the minute prosses which make the mill- ions of bolt-washers to tho immense one that «hears four-inch bats aa if they were ghect-iron. TRE FOUNDRY is & building 255 feet by 90, all nnder one xoof. Tt contains two furnaces, each capable of melt- ing thirty tons of pig iron. The &ir blast is fur- nished the cupolas by one of Raot's largest-sized rotary blowers. _The blacksmiths shop is 90 feeb by 100, filled with trip-hammers and _bolt-forg- ing machines, the latter turning out from 8,000 04,000 bolta'a day. The reaper finger-making is an important part of the work dooe here, and ‘requires the most rapid and skilifal blackemithe. the firey are supplied with air blasts from s uetwork of underground pipes. ¥ IRON FINISHING. It requires & thoroughly informed guide to svoid_being lost in the perplexing mazes of the iron-finishing department. Here are iron lathes of all sizes for turning and dressing, ‘many of thom of iar constraction for cial work, and made by the icCormicks them- selves. There are drills, upright and. horizon- tal, and jron plancrs, key seat cutters, ecrew cufters, and xut teppers, straightening ma~ Chines nnd gear catter. The latter is & besuti- tal pices of machinery, made with mathematical nccuracy, and ia used in iron paitern-making for cutting out the coge, 50 thut esch tooth shall Tave the right shape and degree of pitch, and be ail exacily alike, and ezaclly spaced. EETTING THES UR. After the varions parts heve thus been made, they pasa into the hands of the mechanics, Who vet them up sud fit them, thence to the painters, stripers, snd yarnishers, nd thence to the pack- ing and shipping-rooms. There i’ also o sickle- &hop, where the work of sickle-making is carried on in all its details. The sections aro cat out | fsom Sheffield nacet-atoel ; the teath are cut b ! ingonions machinery ; thesections are tempere ‘polished, and notched on the backs, thus makiog 2 perfect mower-knife, reeper-sickle, or flax- catter, for the thires are roquired to fit out a per- sect combined machine. OUTSIDE THE BUILDING snd inside the fence is a patent dry-house, heat- od by stesm to 22 degroes ‘Fahrenleit ; large enough to take in lumber by the car-losd. All lumber having any eap in it is passed through this dry-bouse before roaching the saws. Ad- joining thia kiln is the extensive lumbor-yard of ihe concern, where pine, white ash, hickory, sock elm, maple, ok, and whitewood Tumber 18 stacked Tp to extent of several million feet. On tho other side of the jard lie ihe conl piles and the pig-iron” stacks, the whole being closely connocted by a net-work of railroad tracls, which, when completed throngh the yards and around the bnildings, will be tho ‘most perfect of its kind, embracing a track scale for weighing material, by car-load, on the track. The extensive cellar-room nnder the entire build- ing, is used for the storsge of Lar-iron, sheeb steel, eheet zine, copper, brass wire, and finish- ed castings. In short, it is equal to any whole- esle motal warehouse in the city, in extent and veriety of its stock. ¥ THE ONE EXGINE which furnishes all the motive power for the im- menso machinery st work, including tho air- ‘Llasts and water-pamping, is a 300-borse-power, Iow-pressure upright engine, made by the Cuya- - Loga Steam Farnace Company, of Cleveland, O. 1t ia 3 eplendid specimen of strength and benuty. To give snidesof its great strongth, ifs fly- wheel slone weighs over sixteen tons. In the oot adjoining, steam isfarnished in abundance for motive power and heating purposes by five immense boilers, the workmanship of Carlile Wzaon, of Chicago. WATER-STPPLY. A 4-inch city main on _tho oo side conneots 4he engine aud boilers with - the lako supply of water, whilo & supply of water from the Tiver is arawa through 8 1%inch undergronnd: pipo a distance of 500 foet. Tho watcr-supply is thus ample, and by mesns of & steam pump can bo instantly thrown into all parts of - the building, and over the roof. By this arrangement, and’ the means of turning ou live stesm futo thie Te- t Yoom in the building, 28 well as interior on and fire-walls and iron doors, it is ex- pected the premises are tolesably safe sgainst another conflagration. H s IN CONCLUSIO! 7 .Thesewere 1 few of the striking features which were noticed by the excursionists £ they ed throngh these magnificent buildings, but 3t would have taken & much longer exsmination iban they could hava given to_derive a perfect acquaintance with the work. which the building Tp of ench a business required. That could be Dotter spprecinted by examining tha_offico with its vsult piled up - with ledgers and day-books dating back for twenty-five years, znd all the <o ndance of & guarter of 8 cengury, both lefters eceived and copies of letters” wniten, which form s comploto history of the rise ~ and progress of tho . McCormick Reaper. Tt is mosiceessary fo dilate npon the surprise of the excarsionists st what they saw there and ‘eteewhere. They hsva exprossed their own sen~ timenta too fully to make it necessary to add evyihing to them. - THE HYDE PARK PHASE. "’ GILNORE AND EISBAYD gave an out-door concert in tho sristocratie sub- - urb of Hyde Park yestérday afternoon. The entertainment was entirely due to the enterprise ond tiberality of & few privato individuals, and, ‘being free, was Inrgely sttended and_hugely en- Joyed. There must have been 300 peraans pres- ent, the msjority, of whom were Iadies, Several prominent men, such as Senator Logen, Ald. Bowen, the Hop. N. B. Judd, and Mr. J.

E i - - THE BENEFIT PHAS © 7 ''THR JUBILEE CLOSED i witha complimentary. benefit to Mr. Gilmors 1ast evening st the depot, which was very haad- somely attended, abont 4,000 poople being pros- ent, and as this number could ensily find seats, thero was'legs discomfort than at suy. of. the ‘provious concerte, aud he concort was really tho most enjoyable of the serics for this aa well 58 for many other ressops. The programme Was mado up of selections from tho other three, em- ‘racing the Kaiser, Juhcl, and Robespierzs over- tures, which brought out'the Austrion, French, snd English nationsl airs, and the potpourri on themes from * Marths,” Which got an oucoro. Mr. Arbuckle also played o solo, which was en- cored, in reply to-which ho gave Levy's familiar polle in superb style. The chorus sang the s Hallelajab,” Owen's- Ave Maxia with Mrs, McGuire i * tho solo, the Auvil ‘Chorns, and otber numbers. Both the orchestra and chorus wero matoriaily redncod, the formor numbering sbout 60 pieces and_the lattor nbout 400 singers, but tho general cect of both was finer than on the previous concerts. _Tho audi- ence was a very nthusiastio one, snd romained to the close, the Jubileo breathing its. lnst sbout half-past 10, leaving soveral lomonads ond peanut deslers with unsold stocks on band. ‘Tho groat dopot will hencaforth b dovoted to u difforent stylo of music. Mr. Gilmore gocs henoe to Milwaukes for a concert, and will then £0 back to Boston, not over-pleased with the re- sults of tho Jubiles, for which he claims that he i6 in no wiso responsible. WHAT THEY SAY. FROM THE NEW TOBK WORLD, The present gathering was brought about in a manner whick Was nothing if not Chicagoish- ‘T first intimation that euch & thing was medi- tated was msde to the public on the 15th of May, ‘and the Jubilea was fixed for the 5th and 6th of June. Following 80 closaly on the splendid Thomas Festival nt Cincinnati it seomed aa if Chioago, in obodicnce to the impulse of_compo- tition which stired up the three grest Western cities to such sublime and ridicnlous manifests- tions of rivalry, intended to * see " Porkopolis and *‘raise herome” with a genuine festival which should do_for music—pure and artistio musio—in_the Northwest what the Cin- cinnati Festival has undoubtedly done for- musio more to the gouth of us. Any_ anticipations of this natare were Tapidly and ruthlessly defeated by the snnounce- mont that Gilmoro was to conduist, tho procoed. ings an o programme yas t0_be modeled Afbar that of the Boston Jubiles. Tho real fack is that the new railrosd station_of the Chicago, Rock Iland & Paciic snd Lake Bhore & Michigan Southorn Bailroads was-about to bo opened ; also, the Grand Pacific Hotel just fac- ing jt, '8 mammoth carsvausorai costing eome 82,500,000, in which the same railroads sro hoay- 1l inforcsted. To give this hotel a big send- off was the real abjcct of the Jubiloe. In con- sidering it, therefore, tho reader will not insti- tute any invidious comparisons betwaen it and the Gincinnati gathering. What Chicago aimed to got up was would crowd all the hotels, Al all the am iho thestres, sud empty the_shelves of tho rotsil stores. In this tho Jubileo hus been a success. Tho musical char- Bcter of tho Jubilee can hardly be expected to stand criticism. The programme was nof- pub- lished until the 16t of Jume, 'nd the frstre- hearsal took place on the 23, being attended only by some 700 of the chorns, With none.of the estra, the accompaniments being supplied Dy two pinos and en organ. The only soloist was Mr. Arbuckle, who porformed two £0loa on f)is'appéarance of the_Cholers \ Rovalt of tho Spanish Troups in flaycelonn.

FROM THE OINCINNATI GAZETTE, Cuicaco, June 6,—Ths jubiloa closed to-night with 8 grand ball in the Merchants' Exchango.

Tho Jubileo would do discredit to Chicago if it Were in any fair seneo a public affzir. As it is, it illustrates the questionsble shrowdness of its managers, who number not more thon half & dozen. ~But it will doubtless movo Chicaga to an effort to ro- triove the character thosa few mon bave cansed Ter to lose. : “GONE OVER."
