THE CHICAGO EXPOSITION.


Washington. March % (specaD.-senator Daniel,
of Virginia, docs not want to have the West mo-
nopozc oil the pleasure the profit and the instruction
10 be got out Of the proposed celebration OF the
4OOth anniversary of the discovery Of America lie
Is willing to let Chicago have the Worlds Fair II the
Windy City" capitalists can raise enough money
by 1893 TO fit out exhibition but he also proposes
that the East shall enjoy fair share OF the popular
entertainment and instruction to be derived from q
fitting tommemoration of the life and achievements
of the great dscovcrer. Mr. Daniels plan is un-
folded in an amendment no offened to-day to the
House Worlds Fair bill, which is In the hands
of the Senate Committee. BY clever stroke the
Virginia Senator seeks to relieve the disappointed
hopes of both Chicasos Eastern rlvas. NewYok and
Washington, while at the same time he reserves
special spectacular feature of the commemoraon for
the benefit of his constituents Of the Old Dominion.
1t must be said frankly that Washington will profit
most by his project, If it be grated the original
celebration scheme by the Senate for the Capital will
get q statue of Columbus and fine memorial hall.
Here is Mr.. Daniels amendment in full drawn in the
form Of substitute for tile eighth section Of the
Chicago bill
That said Commission (the one appointed by the
President TO have general charge Of the Worlds Fair
shall provide for an international celebration at tho
Capital Of the United States in October 1o02 That
Of Statue II Christopher Columbus. to be unveiled
with appropriate civic and military ceremonies. at the
which ceremonies shall be preceded by grand review
of the nsvies OF the world, first in NewYor HarDor.
! and second at Hampton Roads the erection at the
Capital OF the United States of memorial hall suita~
BILE for said ceremonies the 18th day Of October,
| 1902, and also suitable for inaugural receptions,
international conventions and for statuary and por-
| traits Of distinguished Americans.
That the President Of the United States especially
invite the Presidents Of the eighteen American sister
republics, the King Of Italy, the Queen Of spain and
| the Presidents and rcigning sovercgns of all other
nations to visit the United States In 1892 and join
with him In the ceremonies attending the unveilns
| of said statue Of Christopher Columbus.
That on the completion Of said ceremonies at the
| and guests be invited to visit Chicago and Join In
suitable ceremonies in dedication Of the buildings OF
| tho Worlds Columbian Exposition.
Mr.. Daniel is q member Of the Senate Worlds
Fair Committee and hts amendment will undoubtedly
meet with good deal Of favor among the Eastern
Senators ana Representatives..
