REPREsENTAT1vE SALES.
The following are the representative sales OF
cattle at the stock yards today:


The receipts of hogs today were fair
The market was only fairly active during
the day, but prices were 5@75@ cents
higher than yesterdays There were a
few loads of good hogs offered, and local
and outside packers very rapidly took
these at the advanced prices But the
bulk of offerings were light, and this class
of stock did not get the benefit Of the
stronger feeling. Several hundred light
hogs were unsold at the close Tops sold
for 1895; bulk $3l5@275 The market
closed firm.

Worlds Fair Notes.

CHICAGO, Jan. 13.-Few people, except
those who have spent a lifetime in profess
sions or in business having relation to build
ing operations, can fully realize the magni-
tude of the task that is to be accomplished
before the various contemplated structures
are ready for the reception of their con-
tents. Nearly 800, 000-a decidedly good
sized fortune in itself-will have to be ex-
pended on the very ground before single
foundation stone is laid or a central pier
sunk. Nearly quarter of million cubic
yards of sand has first to be dredged from
the location decided upon for the lagoon,
and then to be used in filling up the uneven
portions of Jackson park Even this i'm
mense quantity, however, will not be suffi-
cient for the latter purpose, and 10000
cubic yards additional IS to be dug from
excavations.
Still another quarter of million yards
of sand is to be sought for down on the
Indiana state line on the lake front. or
elsewhere, while $4,000 yards of black
earth Is to be procured for possible con
tingencies in the way of filling up. This
is an aggregate of considerably over one
million cubic yards of material, and Of the
total over one-half must be taken from
places that will have to be reflled when
the exposition has closed its doors and
said farewell to the world. The total cost
will be divided between the Worlds fair
directory and the park commissioners, the
latter, however, getting a little the best OF
the deal in financial sense.
The entire force of officials Of the fair,
national and local, is now located on the
fourth floor of the imposing ten story
structure at Adams and Quincy streets,
known as the Rand McEally building, and
here every man and woman officially iden-
titled with the enterprise can be addressed
for the next three years. AT present there
are but ffty-siX names on the pay roll,
but when several OF the departments.
which as yet are in state of coma, are
quickened into life, this number will DO
doubled and trebled. In all, the quarters
cover no less than 5000 square feet Of
space.
Director General Davis has a spacious
and eiegxnt suite, while Chief Handy, OF
the press bureau, has been successful in
persusding the powers that be 70 coucede

had been allotted 10 his bureau on the
