Unlike Ill6 uOuutdlu Va La
Imagination, the labor brought 1orth noun
ing in particular.
1t did decide, however, not to allow any
parlor more than sixty feet frontage. and
to have the booths nine feet IN helght
instead Of twelve as first proposed. On
this basis the committee sees now IL VIII
be self-sustaining, if the rent be paid by the
Joint Committee. Vice-Cnalrman Nelson
was chosen te learn whether the burden OF
fine sion per diem of rental could be shifted
from its shoulders.
Though applications for space have been
fled with the Secretary for a month or
more. no decisive action has yet been
taken. and will not be until delegation
from each parlor meets with the committee
al its next meeting to preclude all posi-
bility Of a clash for space,
So far every parlOr in this city has APP
piled for space, except the Pacific, National,
Columbia, Aleatraz and South San Fran
cisco, and unless these have applied by
next Wednesday their chance will be lost.
Vice Chairman Nelson and Secretary
DQolan will call on the Directors of the
Mechanics Institute 10 secure the Pavilion
for ten DAYS, from September 1st to 10th
inclusive.
Each parlor will be allowed the privilege
of giving refreshments in its booth, but not
of subletting to any restaurant Tor that
purpose.

their predicament by sending the following
telegram:

Senatorial aud Congressional delegation from
California present to the President, on behalf OF
