CHICAGO, July 3l.-secretary Dickin
son, Of the National Worlds Fair Com
mission, returned from his Eastern triI
laat evening. He Joined the sub.com
mittee Of the Committee on Permanent
Organization at Philadelphia ten ,layi
ago, and attended It's sessions In New
York, Washington and Cincinnati.
Besiues the valuable information Oh.
tained by the commission, important re.
suits are likely to come from the trip.
President Palmer has been convinced
That no time Is to be lost In making
preparations for the fair, and he will be
mere IN low days to urge the local
board to go 10 work at once. lie will
reconvene the National Commission Us
soon aa the local board Is ready to. re.
port plans Of buildings and make lis
ilnal financial showing. This, it is
noped, may bo done by the middle OF
September.
Mr.. Dickinson corrected two or three
reports OF the doings OF the committee
that have created considerable comment,
General Goshorn iias not declined the
Director Generalship, because 1t was not
rendered him. Robert =. Porter was
not rendered tho position OF Chief OF the
Bnreau Of Awards. Neither was Prof.
Goode offered the position Of Chief of the
Bureau OF Classification and Catalogue.
These gentlemen were employed to pre-.
pare q classified list OF exhibits, and
their duties will not require more than
seven or eight weeks OF labor.
The subcommittee has gathered to.
gether more important information
about the management OF worlds |
fairs" said Mr.. Dickinson, ethan can be |
found anywhere else in the country. In |
q few days 1t will meet here to prepare
lis report, and President Palmer will b.
here 10 consult with the local board.
The work will be pushed with ali the
vigor the President can command, and | |
think this one Of the most important
results Of the committee'S work. The
Eravels OF tho committee have been a
wonderful advertisement Of the Fair,
aud have led 10 discussions that have
cleared away great many misunder.
concerning the Exposition.
From suggestions received at Phila-
delphia and New York, President Pal.
mer became convinced that this was
most important element in making prep
arations for the Fair. General G osborn.
Mr.. Mccormick and others impsesaed
On him tho fact that the iirGt thing to do

The presence OF these men, twelve In

have been circulating concerning the To-.
cal situation in sNb rSMpgular fight still
pending between the local Brotherhood
Of Carpenters md the OLD and new asso.
Citations OF bosses. ,s..,...-.s
Both Mr.. Rowland aud Mr.. Mcclure,
however, unite in the assertion that
their presence as well as that OF the two
committee named, Is solely in connec.
ton with the forthcoming biennial con.
yention OF the United Brotherhood OF
Carpenters and Joiners, which opens In
this city August (. Still, the local
Brotherhood men have visibly picked
up in tho hope Of II speedy md aual
settlement OF their troubles.
"Will the work oithe convention have
any bearing upon the local situation ?"
Afr. Rowland was asked.
"Not directly" he replied. "lIowever,
the presence OF 30 many representative
fthe United Brotherhood may |
have potential influence in the direction !
OF Il final settlement. Oicourse the local
delegates may, and very likely will, bring
their Gase before the convention, when
,lecisive action may be taken; or, as has
usually been the case, the matter may
be referred to the executive"
Tomorrow is generally considered as
somewhat OF turning point. The
agreement between the local Brother.
hood and the new Bosaes' Association
provides, among other things, for 81
cents por hour up to August /, and for
37t cents after that date. 1t has been
asserted in circles directly CONCERNED
that the new Bosses Association will no.
be able to pay the latter ratio 80 long as
The old bosses eontiue to obtain Jour.
neymen at the rate Of IS cents per hour.
This, the local Brotherhood men claim,
must lead to either ono OF two things-a

MONTREAL, July 3l.-A highly inter
esting ceremony took place yesterday al
Pa Prairie, small uuburb OF Montreal,
1t consisted Of solemn service to ded.
icate monument to Catherine Tegahou.
ita, the first Canadian maiden baptized
into the Christian faith {in lG70), to con.
secrate a new cemetery and to say mass
ior the repaRe Of the soRls Of thoae buried
in an old one, as well as 10 mark the
opening up OF school oil Christian
Brothers.
Abont sixty prelstas were present,
among them the Bishop OF Albany, N.
Y, and Archbishop Fabrc. The Arch.
bishop otliciated at mass and the Bishop
Of Albany read n Latin service over the
grave OF the maiden. Addresses were
delivered in English, French and
Spanish.
Oatharine died at the old mission in
1850, and was buried there. Some years
ago, when her canonizatian was first
suggested, it became necessary to re-
cover some relics, and her grave was
opened and several Iuouldering bones
were found. These were placed in
charge OF tho eufs.e Of CsuGhnawaga,
and are now in charge Of Father purtin,
resident missionary.
Father James Lamberville, mission
ary among the Indians, when going one
day through the town OF Candaonague,
now Fonda. N. r., when most Of the
people were absent in the fields, was
impelled 10 enter the cabin OF great
enemy ofthe faith. There he found a
niece Of Chief Tagahoulta, the daughter
Of Christian Algonquin mother, who
was prevented by an injury to her foot
from being at work With the rest. 1t
had been the great longing ot her heart
to be Christian, but her modesty pre-.
vented her addressing the missionary.
: Father I.amberviile saw at once that
she was endowed With higher gifts, and
he invited her to instruction given at the
chapel. She edited all by her iervor,
and was solemnly baptized in the chapel
on Easter Sunday, lGTi', receiving the
name Of Catherine. She was afterward
eaid to have performed many miracles.
