the fidelity, ability and efficiency with

The Exposition Opens.

MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 22.-No booming Of
cannon or screeching of whistles an
nounced the opening Of the Third annual
exposition this afternoon. At o'clock the
doors were opened and the turnstiles put
in motion for the accommodation of the
crowd already in waiting. An hour later
the formal exercises on the grand stand
dedicated anew the great building to the
use Of science, manufactures and art. The
whole affair was simple, modest and be-
coming. Attorney General Clapp in the
absence Of Governor McGill made an ad-
dress. Mayor Ames responded and wei.
coined the people to the third exposition,
which he said was one-half better than
those which had gone before. The open
ing ode, written for the occasion, was given
by chorus Of 275 voices accompanied by
a brass band. The formal declaration Of

pas New York band arrived and furnished
the music. The general verdict is that the

waves of the ocean recede and prevail not
against the 'Old Roman" shouted one of the
crowd of the 300 who had gathered on the

No Conclusion Reached

CHICAGO, Aug. 2O.-A meeting of the
general passenger agents OF the roads be-
tween Chicago and st. Paul was held here
to-day for the purpose of adjusting the
existing rate difficulties. Five OF the
through lines were represented, but the
absence of Mr.. Baker of the Wisconsin
Central made it impossible to reach a final
agreement. The other lines, however.
unanimously decided to refer the matter to
the general managers of the roads repre-
sented. A call for a meeting of the mana
gers to be held tomorrow was issued.
None of the roads except the Wisconsin
Central and the Burlington have reduced
their rates between Chicago and St. Paul
and it is not probable, apparently, that
they will do so.

A cowardly Deed.

CALAIS, Me, Aug. 2O.- The fishing
grounds on Tobique river, near Andover,
N. B., were the scene of a cowardly mur-
der Sunday morning. On Saturday sew
eral men were found fishing on grounds
owned by private parties, one of whom is
Major Hawes of Philadelphia, formerly of
Boston, who about month ago started
with his family on salmon fishing trip to
the head waters of the Tobique river The
major ordered the intruders off the ground
and they sullenly obeyed. Major Hawes
camped that night at Galquae. On Sun
day morning the major, his wife, four
children and three Indian guides were en-
joying sail on the river near that place
when they were fired upon by parties in
ambush on the shore. The first shot passed
over them without injury. Major Hawes
directed his wife and children to lie down
in the boat, but before his directions could
be obeyed bullet entered Mrs. Hawes' left
temple. She dropped without sound and
the major did not know she was dead until
the firing ceased. About ten shots were
fired. The murder was no doubt committed
by pOachers i'll revenge. The inhabitants
IN that section are greatly excited and if
the suspected parties are caught an effort
will be made to administer lynch law.
