BY NO MEANS A UNIT.
Worlds Fair Directors Expected
to ScraD Tonight,

to Scrap Tonight.
CHICAGO, Aug. 1S.-The result of to-
morrow nights meeting of the worlds
fair directors is looked forward to with
more than ordinary interest. The meet
ing is expected to be the most important
yet held, and will probably be stormy
one. The directory is by no means
a unit on any of the questions
to be decided, and some of the
members go so far as to say they believe
the meeting will adjourn before settling
the site question. Some of the directors
favor jackson park; others the lake
front; the North and West sides have
their champions, while there are few
who apparently do not know what they
want. Long and emphatic discussions
are therefore lookedsfor, and the gath
Wednesday morning. The documents
that are to receive attention are Engi-
neer OrlingStalPS report on the lake
front site, Mr.. OlmStead'S elaborated
views about the ground about Jackson
park, an offer of land from the West
park commissioners, and the reply from
the South Park commissioners in ref
erence to the conditions on which the
directory will be permitted to have
the use of part of Washington
park, the Midway Plaizance. and other
property near the two parks. The lat
ter communication was received from
the park commissioners to-day, but
like all other documents in the posses
sion OF the officials it's contents were
not presented to the public. The ex-
cuSe advanced was that as it addressed to
the directory it could not be given to
the press until the meeting tomorrow
night. A large-sized protest from
spectators who have purchased options
on jackson park property, or land ad-
jacent, is also looked for at the meeting.
Ever since the contents of Mr.. Ohm
stead's report was made known, the
spectators have had a horde of en-
gineers on the ground, who now say
they intend to show the directors that
the landscape engineer does not know
what ne is talking about, and that jack
son Park is the best place on earth to
hold the exposition.

gated, and the action of the division SUI
perintendent. or the superintendent of
