BUSINESS STILL BOOMING.

Large Crowds Flocking to the
Exposition and Siege OF Vera
Cruz.
Yesterday was not as good day at
the Exposition, of course. as the week
before, but there were enough people
in the building to make it busy for the
attendants at the different stands. In
all there were about nine thousand per-
sons in the building during the day. 1t
was pretty hot, too, and there was
great demand for lemonade and cold
cider from the distillery of Mr.. Baker &
Sons. The crowd was a good-natured
one, ana all who came did so with the
apparent intention of having a good
time. Along in the afternoon there
were number of children in the crowd
and they were kept amused by the little
Shetland ponies which trotted around
the track as they never had any thought
of being tired. There was no peform-
ance i'll the immense amphitheater last
night in consequence of the desire
of the management to make the last few
days as interesting and the fireworks as
fine as possible. But tonight it is ex-
pected that there will be an immense
crowd out to see the great spectacle, the
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1891-09-15

The Committees Are Making EX-
cellent Progress With Their
Work.
The harvest festival committee of
fifty held its usual meeting yesterday
morning. 1t was decided to invite all
secret societies and labor organizations
TO participate in the parade.
President Bracket read telegram
from E. G. Jeffries. one of the travelling
men of the stockyardS company, re-
porting from Miles City that Sam Cor
don, editor of the Miles City journal,
was on his way to Minneapolis to look
after display i'll the parade.
j. II. Reynolds reported for the trav-
cling men that they met at the Nicollet
house yesterday, and it was ascertained
that nearly all of them will be on the
road at the time of the festival, as they
have been in town so much recently
during the Fair and Exposition. he
suggested that they be supplied with
advertising matter to distribute in the
country. This was provided for by the
committee on advertising, which will
also supply badges. 1t is proposed TO
supply badges to every scholar in the
public schools of the city.
There will be log hut display, and it
is proposed to secure several Indians
from the White Earth reservation and
exhibit them with their tepees on floats.
The committee on finance was not
ready TO report in full. Charles r.
Chute reported that C. A. Pillsbury had
given $500, and 5000 more was reported
from the chamber of commerce. Will
lam Regain reported that the Tribune
company would contribute literally i'll
advertising worth S40O, and vote of
thanks was rendered for the gift.
Theodore Hays reported that Che
musicians union had agreed to con-
tribute S25 and had also decided to waive
for this occasion the rule against play
ing in parade with non-union must
clans.
The parade committee has not yet
submitted report, and it is understood
that there is some slight difference
of opinion among the members or
to the line of march, Capt. Gilmore
wants the parade to take in Hennepin
and Washington avenues, and to have
the street cars stopped during the time
it is in progress. and other members
wish to leave out these thoroughfares
for fear one of the floats should touch
an electric wire and cause trouble by
completing a circuit

RETAIL GROCERS.

They Make Preparations to Put a
Float in the Parade.
The Retail GrocerS' association held
its regular monthly meeting last even
ing in the rooms of the Jobbers's asso-
citation, about forty members being
present.
A subscription paper was opened for
the purpose of securing funds with
which. to make display in the harvest
festival, and about $16O was raised on
the spot in very few minutes. The
association also voted to do everything
in its power to assist in the project.
The committee appointed to secure
quarters submitted partial report stat
ing that it had entered into negotiations
with the Jobbers' association with a
view to obtaining the use of its rooms
for regular meetings. The matter was
left in the hands of the same committee.
The committee appointed to see the
commission men with reference to dis
continuance of retail trade reported that
several of these dealers had agreed
to the request, and had issued orders to
their employees forbidding any further
retail business. A resolution request
ing all commissio men to adopt this
policy was adopted, and ommittee
was appointed to secure signatures to a
written agreement to that effect, The
committee requested the members of
the association to favor in their trading
those houses who should refrain
from retail business. A committee of
twenty-five was appointed to secure
rooms for the entertainment of visiting
retail grocerS, and to secure places for
them OH the viewing stand.
