to the members of the national commits
sion in reference to citizens in the var
ious states and territories organizing TO
the purpose of securing the proper rep
resentation at the Worlds fair, making
arrangements for their exhibits, raising
funds and getting proper measures
through the legislature. Attention il
called to the commendable promptnes,
with which the people of the state o.
California held their state convention tx
inaugurate the matter, and also to the
legislature of Iowa appropriating $50,
600 for preliminary expenses, with
another appropriation to be made next

sioners will be requested to visit the
legislature this winter and use their
best endeavors to see that plan of Or

Jane Struthers, a broker, dropped
dead in the stock exchange in New York,
Monday. His death was caused from
excitement. Struthers' dead body lay
on the floor surrounded by brokers for
some time. Not word was spoken but
the brokers, with uncovered heads, wait
ed for the officials to act The business
was at once suspended, not on account
OF the situation, for they could not close
the exchange, and at 1890 business was
resumed. Sharp to the minute of 1870,
exactly after the half an hour recess had
expired the president again mounted
the rostrum and made official announce.
ment of the unfortunate brokers' death.
He had hardly stepped down from the
platform before there was a rush and
shout, and business once more was re-
sumed on the floor. This scene, as we'll
as that when recess was announced, was
of the tremendous excite
nent pervading the market Monday.
When the death was first announced
scores of brokers, without waiting to
near anything about it, rushed off in
mad haste to make the best use they
'ould OF the time in making up their
accounts.
