PROGRESS OF THE FAIR.
People Flocking In to View Its Various
Attractions.
Large Attendance at the Races-Ladies
Riding Contest Yesterday-The
Stock Parade To-day.

The first week of the State Fair has
nearly passed, and the result has been
quite satisfactory to the society. There
is always more or less uncertainty before
the fair opens as to what it will be, and
the present season was no exception to
the rule. But the State exhibition is a
success in all it's departments, and finan-
cially as well. The attendance has in
creased daily, at both Pavilion and Park.
Last evening the scene in the exposition
building was really brilliant. The ele-
CANT exhibits, the brilliant decorations,
the vast throng of gaily-dressed people,
the mellifiuous notes of the musicians,
which swelled and echoed throughout the
vast hall, all combined to please the eye
and enchant the senses of all but the
most stoical natures.
The playground is becoming very
popular. 1t was filed nearly all day
yesterday and last evening with children,
who had grand sport riding bicycles,
playing at see-saw and indulging in vari-
GUS other amusementS.
A new attraction will be added this
evening-a floral display of set pieces, in
which it is expected all the florists of the
city will compete for the money prizes.
There will be $25, S15 and $40, respect
lively, for the first, second and third best
displays.
THE MUSIC.
Great numbers of people crowded
about the musie-stand last evening dur
ing Liberatis rendition of his cornet
solos, and when he played "'Way Down
Upon the Suwanee River" the applause
was loud and long.
The First Artillery Band, which has
been doing duty at both the Park and
Pavilion under the ~conductorship of G..
A. Neale, has received many compli-
ments during the week from visitors
from San Francisco and elsewhere, many
of whom declare they have never listened
to better band music anywhere. This
evenings programme Will be as follows

Bitterness Against Americans Growing

SANTIAGO, Chill, Oct. 31-The contro-
versy between the United States and tue
government here is just now the all-ab-
sor bling topic. Instead Of the feeling Of
bitterness and resentment on the part of
the Chilians having become alleviated by
the SOLDERING influence of many hours re-
Election the sentiment toward persons and
things American has become intensified
and American residents and officials are
apprehensire OF further trouble. United
States Minister Egan, Consul McCreery,
and Captain Schley were in consultation
most of the time yesterday. The re-
suit of their deliberations. OF course, can
not be given, but they are unanimous in
the opinion that the reply of the junta to
che demands Of the United States was de-
cidedly insulting, to say the least.

Another Explanation Needed.
A new feature of the Valparaiso incl
dent which needs explanation was devel-
oped yesterday. The officials in Valpa-
raiso having charge of the investigation
of the assault on the American blue jack
cts compelled the United States seamen,
who were locked up at the time, to sign a
statement written in Spanish exonerat-
ing the.police from all responsibility as to
their arrest. The situation is one of in
creasing uneasiness, and further trouble
may occur at any moment.

NEW YORK, Oct 31-The Evening Post
says: Patrick Egan is to be recalled as
minister to Chilli immeditely after the
elections, not on account of the Baltimore
episode, but on demand of the Gillian
government, according to the statements
Of gentleman in this city who is in con-
slant cog munication with Valparaiso.
Santiago, Lima and other South Amer
lean ports in Chill and Peru. The circum-
stances are related as follows:
Immediately upon the accession to power of
the junta de gobierno, after the downfall of
Balmaceda, that body cabled to Senior Pedro
Montt in Washington directing him to assume
charge of the CHILEAN legation at Washington
as soon as the government of the COMPRESSION
al party in Chill should be recognized ry the
United States.
Insisted on Formal Credentials.
Neither this department nor the CHILEAN Legal
ton of Balmaceda at Washington would recog-
nize the cable credentials of Senior Mont. but
told him that when duly written instructions
were received from Chill the legation would
then receive him MONTH as CLilis representa-
tive in the United States The fact of Months
appointment as minister at Washington was
also made known to Minister Egan in Santiago
with the request that the latter inform the de-
the United States, Montt had cabled his
government that he would be obliged to await
mis- autographs credentials. 1t is not known
| that Egan ever cabled this to Washington, so
that Alontt had to await the receipt of his for
NAL credentials minister from Chilli upon
their arrival by the steamer Colon via Panama
few days ago, and he lost no time in present
ing them To the state department on Wednes-
day last.
Chili's r equest Also Shelved.
At the same time that Senior Montt was
cSbled to regarding his appointment as minis
ter, he received instructions through the same
eli nnel to demand in Chili's name the recall
of Minister Eesan as a persona non grata to the
present Gillian authorities. This request of
Clili was also shelved to await the arriva. of
Months credentials, and it is believed in Chilli,
as well as in Washington, that Egan knew the
Gillian government did not want him and
used the slow process of the mail to inform
the state department of Months appointment
minister. 1t is now stated upon the same
aut hority that Chilli has again demanded
Egan's recall. and that the state department

THE STARTLING REPORT CONFIRMED

Insurrection.
KNOXVILLE Tenn Oct. 31-3:15 a. 49,
The wires are down between Clinton I'd
Coal Greek, and it is very difficult to b.
tain accurate information. Beyond a
doubt, however, the stockades of the Ten
nessee Mining company and three other
buildings at Briceville and the stockade
of the Knoxville Iron company at Coal
Greek have been burned. The conviots
employed in these mines, TO the number
OF 800, have been released, and are now at
large. Most of them are reported to have
gone toward the Kentucky line

The liberators came from every direc-
ton and assembled in force, marching on
the stockade. Their first act was to bic W
up the magazine, the uprights of Il e
stockade were knocked off, and the cor
victs who had retired released. They
then volunteered to help their rescuers in
an attack on the stockade A continuous
fire was kept up. The guards of the stock
ade were preparing against the attack.
Great bonfires were built all around 10

session of the telegraph office at Coz

be received or sent.
Been Preparing for the Revolt.
1t has been ascertained that large num-
bers of suits of citizens clothes were pur-
chased several days ago, and it is now
certain that they were for the use of the
discharged convicts, whose escape would
be facilitated by discarding their striped
clothes
The greatest excitement prevails in the
surrounding country owing to the con-
victs being at liberty in such large num-
bers, and the further trouble that is an
ticipated in any effort that may be made
to enforce the penitentiary convict lease
laws.
The guards at the stockade made no
resistance. feeling that it was useless. II

Being Coached on the News Of the Day.
An educational feature Of compara-
lively recent establishment in private
schools and seminaries for young ladies
IS one which might be put down in the
curriculum of studies as that Of current
opinion. For the past two or three
years number of the New York schools
and several prominent ones throughout
the state have instituted weekly lectures
upon topics of the times For this dr.
pose In some schools visiting talent is
employed; in others a member of the
teaching corps is detailed for the work
The things talked about by the world
at large at the moment are taken as SUBJ
Jects, and the addresses are vehicles for
the transmission of much valuable in
formation which the young women
would probably not obtain for them
selves-young women being the class

Which does not read the newspapers
These lectures are intended for the ad-
vanced classes, and are, though not so
stated, indirectly directed to the removal

HE Sleepy Eye Herald, the Of

The editor of that paper visited the
State Capitol recently, and gives
outsiders his idea of how business
is conducted in the house:
When an honorable gentleman loads
himself for a speech and has a. pile of
authorities two feet high on his desk
he just gets right up and sails into the
matter while his brother members
move out into the cloak rooms and en-
JOY cigar while The puts himself on

that you cannot hear what's going on
only now and then, and we asked our
friend how he knew when to vote. He
replied: See that big man sitting over
there near the speaker; we'll, he's a
Republican and when we see him rise
or hold up his hand, we always vote
contrary to him. Of course" contin-
ued our friend, THAT seems funnv IN
you, but it saves a laundering lot Of

Primitive Methods of Washinp'

At Edinburgh the poorer classes still
do their weekly laundering as it was
done years ago. They convey their
washing to the river, dump it into large
tubs and fill their tubs with water that
has been heated in huge public kettles
Then the women pull off their shoes and
stockings, and, holding their skirts well
up about their waists, get into the tubs
and tread on the steaming linen, there
by squeezing all the dirt out of the sew
eral pieces This is so common spec
tacle that the natives pay no regard to it
at all, but visitors seem to consider it as
one Of the sights of Edinburgh, and but
for the activity Of the police the river
side would be thronged with imperti-
nent strangers every wash day.-Eugene

the most prophetic have not

OF the whole to the calendar on
such short notice was to stiffen 11p
the backbone of the senate for the

at which time the bill will probably
be ready to be acted upon by the
