New ORLEANS, February 1lth.-Last week
the management of the Worlds EXPOSE
ton notified exhibitors that after Monday
the temporary passes heretofore used would
not be good, but could be exchanged for
new ones at the office of installation. The
holders of passes state that they called at
Mullen's Office, and were informed that the
passes were not ready, but the
old ones would hold good until the new
ones were issued. On Monday the ex-
hibitors were told that they would have
to provide themselves with new passes
and the next day rush was made
by the exhibitors for the installation
Office, and a few succeeded in obtaining
passes but the others were unsuccessful.
Yesterday notice was given by the man
agement that passes could be obtained at
the down town office, but when the exhibit
tors called there they were informed that
the tickets were not ready, and they paid
their way into the grounds. The treatment
of the exhibitors resulted in demon
stration last evening when a meeting was
held and the management indignant
" denounced Those present agreed
to meet at the main entrance

exhibitors forced their way into the
grounds the gate keepers having refused

their way to-day, while others came down

another meeting in the main building, not
as an exhibitors association, but as num-
Der of indignant persons who had been I'M

was Justly their due. A committee was
