HOW NOT TO DO 1T.
The Worlds Fair Managers are Giving Free
and Fine Exhibition OIL

| CHICAGO, Nov. 22.-The commission to-
day adopted number of committe reports,
including that of the judiciary committee
opposing reduction of salaries.
The report of the executive committee
on the establishment of bureaus of tariff
and transportation, and that of the COM
mittee in regard to apportionment, were
referred to the special committee which
Yesterday reported on the powers of the
commission.
Another important action was the decis-
lon OF the question whether or not money
| awards should be granted to exhibit
| ors. Live stock men were demanding
| substantial awards in cash and threatening
not to make any exhibit unless their de-
| mands were complied with. Commissioner
Russell, of Nevada, introduced resolution
that the local directory be asked to appro
pirate 100000 for live stock premiums.
This was carried and Immediately after
ward the report of the joint committee on
awards was introduced, providing that
there shall be awards consisting of parch-
ment certificates and by bronze medals to be
granted upon specific points of excellence
or advancement formulated by the board of
judges or examiners. In the opinion
Of the joint committee it is emf
nently fitting that the government should
tally in the case of foreign exhibits, but
there does not appear to be any provision
made for intending appropriations of con-
gress. Then more complicated matter
came up on the question "What are the
lady managers here for?" After some talk
the commissioners laid the matter on the
table and the ladies were LETT to settle it to
suit themselves.
The Journal says this evening that the
local board of directors propose to take
definite issue with International commission
ers on the question of jurisdiction, they
not liking the special report made to the
commissioners yesterday.
1t was learned to night that the story is
true that the directors, under the opinion
of eminent lawyers, have formulated a
document setting forth their decision that
the work of preparing the grounds, putting
up buildings and the agencies employed are
entirely within the control of the local
directors, nor has the commission any right
to exercise any general or other super
vision over the construction of build
ings or the expenditure of money
connected Herewith, except to require
that the buildings shall be constructed
in accordance with the plans adopted. The
directors hold that the capital of the cor
poration is not subject in any manner to
the control of the commission 1t is fur
Their declared that while Congress confers
upon the commission tue power of inter
course with exhibitors, etc., it does not
preclude the directors from establishing at
home or abroad any agency for the purpose
OF promoting the interests of the exposi.
ton. A conference will be held with the
commission committee Monday.

The Story of Two Reliable Scouts

OMAHA, Neb., Nov. pa special to the
Bee from Pine Ridge agency says: 1.-Two of
the most reliable scouts in the governments
employ reported to General Brooke last
night that $50 lodges of Wounded Knee
fanatics, including some of the most 6es-
perate and treacherous redskins in this
part OF the country, had moved to White
river, twenty miles north of here, and again
began the ghost dance ina wilder manner
than known thus far. The scouts talked
with several of the leaders and all declared
they would shoot any government officials
or soldiers who attempted to SUPPRESS the
dance. This is by far the most menacing
news that has come to General Brooke
since his arrival. All the Indians in these
100 lodges are armed with Winchesters.
navy reviewers and knives. They have
large quaetltles OF ammunition and provis
ions, and are receiving heavy reinforce
mentS hourly.
General Brooke received a telegram
from Miles last night giving him power to
call just as many more troops to this point
as he deemed expedient. Some of the
scouts and Indian police sent out Thurs
Gay TO notify The non-dancing factions to
move INTO the agency precincts until the

report tnat the friendly Indians are WILLING
