WORLDS FAIR MATTERS,
ASSEMBLING OF THE COMMISSION.
ERS IN CHICAGO.
They All Favor the Lake Front Site Pro-
vided There is Room Enough-Exces-
sive Demands for Space.

CHICAGO, June pa large number of
the worlds fair commissioners. repre-
senting various states, have arrived in
Chicago, and tonight in all the hotels
worlds fair matters are being very gen.
orally discussed. Among the most in
teresting conferences was one between
Joseph Hirst, of Tampa, Florida, and A.
S. Mercer, of Cheyenne, Wyoming
Hirst had much to do with the allot-
ment of space at the centennial, and
almost the entire charge of the recent
Piedmont exposition at Atlanta. In
talking the matter over, Mr.. Hirst
said: "If we can be convinced that
the lake front can be obtained
legally, and will revert to Chicago as a
park after the fair is over, don't think
there Will be dissenting voice-this,
however, providing there is room
enough"
''There is the trouble" said Mercer.
II don't think we ought to open doors
with less than 900 acres. Just look at
the number of states demanding ten
acres each Some of them propose to
do wonderful things with that space
Utah proposes to reproduce Salt Lake
and the country before and after irriga-
ton, with an exhibition of the irrigation
process. Colorado will build mineral
palace. California will make wonder
full exhibit, and so on"
"Well, if they really mean to occupy all
the space that is asked for, the lake
front will certainly not be sufficient -
said Mr.. Hirst, ''and / am utterly op-
posed to dividing the exhibition"
The gentlemen also discussed the re-
cent sensational charges regarding the
lake front, and Mr.. Hirst said: "You
may rest assured that if there is any
danger of that spot being ruined for any
purpose which the city may desire, the
commissioners will not aid any such
schemes"

TORIES BACKWATER.
Their Local Taxation Bill
RemOdeled.
The Licensing Clauses Had to
Be Abandoned.
The Whole Bill Narrowly Escapes
Being Withdrawn.
Foreign Miscellany-The President of San
Salvador Suddenly Expires-Bis-
marck Will Talk.
Associated Press Dispatches. |


LONDON, June 23.-During the sitting
OF the commons this afternoon, the
government leader announced that the
government had decided to withdraw
the licensing clauses of the local tax
alton bill.
Smith said the government had ar
rived at the conclusion that it would be
its entirety. Prolonged opposition
proposals: First, certain portion of
the new taxation of intoxicants should
be appropriated to the purpose of extin-
gushing licenses; second, that power be
conferred on county councils to purchase
and extinguish licenses; and third, that
the issue of new licenses should be sus-
pended. The first proposal received the
assent of the house; so far as England
was concerned, the government would
proceed with the proposal. With the
second proposal the government would
not proceed, but would ask the house to
allow the money for the extinction of
licenses to accumulate until parliament
should direct otherwise. Opposition
cheers.) The third proposal would
stand.
Gladstone expressed partial satisfac-
ton at Smiths amendment, but said
the proposed amendment threatened
difficulty. Its entire withdrawal would
simplify the debate.
Smith said he appreciated the spirit
in which Gladstone spoke, but the gov
ernment could not disregard the fact
that the principle of purchase had re-
ceived the approval of large majority
of the house. [Cries of "Only four."]
He said at all events the money accumu-
lated would be at the disposal of parlia-
ment.
Smith moved the appointment of a
select committee to inquire into the sub
ject Of the continuance of bills from ses-
sion to session. Agreed to.
Replying to a deputation of publicans
in the lobby tonight, Ritchie, president
of the local government board, said the
principle OF compensation for the eXtinc
ton of licenses had been accepted byt
house, and the money ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
be devoted to that purpose.
