AN UNDERGROUND ARCADE.
How Chicago Intends to Rid the Worlds
Fair Site of the Railroad Trucks.

How Chicago Intends to Kid the WorId's
Fair Site of the Railroad Trucks.
CHICAGO, Jan. 13.-The problem OF
getting the Illinois Central railroad
tracks out of the way of that portion of
the worlds fair to be located ON the lake
front was grappled with in an ordinance
introduced Monday night in the city
council, and made special order for
next Monday evening. The ordinance
provides for an underground arcade
nearly two miles long, from Twenty
second street to Adams street, the whole
to be sunk below the level of Michigan
avenue, and to be located in land made
by filling in part of the harbor. The
worlds fair directors are authorized to
offset the city's loan to the exposition
YRith any money voted to aid IN the re-
fnGval of the tracks,
The passenger transportation terminal
at the main portion of the exposition in
jackson park is looming up a possibly
very costly affair. Preliminary reports
made Monday by the committee of en-
Hneers to the directory committee on
buildings and grounds recommend a1fele-
waited ten-track loop, capable of moving
10000 people per hour. The elevation IS
said to be made necessary by the fact
that jackson park Is hemmed in by the
lines of the Illinois Central, and grade
crossing is impracticable. The estimated
expense of the loop is 81 100000, not in
Guiding an enormous outlay suggested
for an equipment of cars and engines.

NASHVlLLE'S PRIDE.

MR. EDITOR:-Have you been to
Nashville lately? If you have, you
have no doubt seen the Great New
Store. Truly the march of progress
is wonderful.
Who would have thought few
years ago that there would be estab-
lished in the South such a CONNER
cial house as that of tie CONNELI.-
hALL-MCLESTEK Co, of Nashville?
To a lady going to Nashville, this
concern is a blessing indeed.
She can get Off the cars at the Union
Depot, take Ii hack or stree car and
go at once TO the door of this great
store, where IL coy reception Room,
with drcssing-room and toiiet-roonI
are at her service. Her baggage and
bundles may be checked, and she can
then go wherever she may choose
about the house or the city, without
being encountered with luggage. If
the weather is bad, and lady goes
to the city only to shop, she need not
leave the great store at all.
Every sort OF goods in the greatest
variety is kept in the house, aud at
one price, everything being marked
in pian figures; and there she can
find anything that may not be had
of our local merchants in the way
of Dry Goods, Boys Clothing, Cloaks,
Dresslnaking, Millinery, and every
thing else. Even iunch-rOOm is
Kept by this enterprising company,
where such lunch is set as will sur
prise some of our good housewives of
Maury County, and at prices that are
astOnishingly cheap. y lady need
not put her foot out of the door to do
a whole days shopping, at this great
store, and the house asks that their
reception-rOom be made the place of
all visitors to the city. They will
take care,Of all bundles sent them, and
ship all together, relieving ladies OF
ut I'D annoyance in caring for their
pUrcha, e.. When visiting Nashville
no lady should fail to see this great
estab ishment. a FgIEND.
p. 81 forgot one thing that will
greatly pleaFe the young people, that
is, that they have candy depart
ment, where fresh candies are made
every day; and even sell hot soda
water, that exhiliratiug French drink
for ladies, hot bullion, grape milk, etc

Senator Hearst, of California, worth $780,
COO, 900, Dying in Washington.
WASHINGTON, Jan. Ex-senator George
Hearst is at deaths door. His family
has given up all hope of his recovery,

more aggravated of late, and the sena-
tor suffers intensely, His - years make
the fight for life one sided, and news of
his death mcy now be expected at al
most any holr. His men Of affairs have
been engaged recently in invoicing his
estate. and they say that he will leave a
fortune of at least Sc, 900, 900.

A CORNER in RUBBER.
Formation OF Syndicate to Control tn,
Para Produrt


Psra Product.
NEW YORK. Jan ia syndicate has
been recently formed in Brazil with the
view of controlling all the products Of
that country. That something mysteri-
GUS was going on in the rubber trade
has been known for some time, but the
ambitiousneSs of the scheme has just
been made known.
A person familiar with the line
of the syndicate's intended opera
tons seems to be convinced that if the
syndicate does not wholly realize is OBJ
jects it will have at least con iderable
influence on the future output of the
products of Brazil. Its attention viii be
directed chiefly to cornering the Para
rubber crop, which is the largest in the
world.
That they can succeed in producing
considerable effect on this commodity is
evident when it is known that the CAPT
tai of the syndicate amounts to $40, O0O,-
600. This sam has already been taken
up, but all the subscriptions have not yet
been paid. Enough money has been paid
in, however, TO begin operations with
the coming crop of rubber. Shipton
Green, the New York agent of the Red
Cross line OF steamers to Brazil, said yes
terday that he thought that the opera
ton of the syndicate would increase the
price of this years crop of rubber. -
The price of crude rubber is now sew
enty-six cents per pound, which is about
the same as that of year ago. The
price, however, will be materially in
creased when the effect of the syndicate's
operations have had chance to be felt.
The money has been principally sub
sc1ibed by Brazil, he added, but some
foreign capital has been invested in the
scheme. The capitalists came together
as late as lest August, when the syndi-
cate was tended.
1t is stated that spectators have al
ready control of fully one-half of the
Para crop. If the Spectators were to
succeed in securing control of single
crop it would make their fortunes. This
is especially true when it is considered
that the leather market has begun to i'm
prove most decidedly, and there is an eX-
cellent chance that the price of leather
boots and shoes wi ! advance.

THE HERALD is not overly addicted
to giving tally, but we don't mind
saying that, so far as our observation
goes that the present B )ard of Mayor
and Aldermen are as watchful of
public affairs as any Board we can
mention. They have an economic
turn which we admire, and they have
a way of making a pull altogether and
getting out of some old rut, every now
and then, which we also admire
They have done this in more than
one instance in the last year Blu:
there is one thing they have left uu-
done we think they ought to have
done, and that is to make some little
protection against the dust. Every
body suffered last summer and every
body will suffer again the coming
summer if something is not done
Now they are preparing for the
years budget, we respectfully sug
gest to them and earnestly beg of
them, to set aside fund sufficient to
sprinkle the Public Square next sum-
mer. Everybody has business on the
Square, everybody goes there and
everybody would be benefited by
having it sprInkled. 1t is a public
necessity and should be done by the
public money. If you cannot ex-
tend the limit any further, at least
sprinkle the Public Square.

Bonds Can Be Bought.

Bonds Can Be Bought.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10. Secretary
Window is authority for the statement
that tie growing treasury surplus can
,lot now be a>pd In the purchase of four per
Gent. bonds, fer the reason that it will
be needed to meet pension payments due
pext month aggregating $25, 600. 600.
The available cash surplus is now $1S,-
900. 600, but by continued excess of re-
ceip,s over expenditures will probably
reach the required amount by the time
indicated. Secretary Window is of the
opinion that the business of the country
would be improved by making these
pension payments monthly instead of
quarterly, as at present, and he has
made Recommendation to that effect to
the proper congressional committees.
If this is done, he says, it will do away
with the present necessity of keeping a
large sum of money in the treasury
vaults for three months when it might
