sheaves had to be fixed, and the axle
boxes, connecting rod, and coupling
rod brasses fitted by the erectors.
Eight hours and twenty-five minutes
from the start the valve setting was
completed, and the painting of the
engine was begun fifteen minutes later.
In nine hours and forty-seven minutes
from the start the engine and tender
were completed in every detail.
One hundred and thirty-seven men
were employed, divided as follows
On the engine, eighty-fve, of whom
thirty-nine were boiler makers, rivet
boys, etc. On the tender were en-
ployed tifty-two, namely, sixteen fit
tiers, sixteen boiler makers, and twenty
laborers.
The work was done in seven hours of
one day, and two hours and forty-seven
minutes of the following forenoon.
The locomotive was put into regular
work on the day it was completed, and
has been running continuously since.
The average time for building an en-

Beautiful Mile Laos.

Mr.. Jno. A, Berl1ey returned this
morning from his outing at Mile Laos,
where he went in company with In
dian Commissioner Oar Hall, with
Capt Angus, of West Superior, as in
terpreter to the Chippewas. The
party camped at South Harbor and had
a delightful time fishing in the lake,
which abounds with the fnny beauties
without number. The party spent
from Saturday last to Wednesday
night on the reservation and were
fortunate enough to witness the great
Medicine Dance of the Chippewas,
which was being completed Sunday
evening. Mr.. Berkly describes it as
quite impressive and says that there is
very little dance about it, a great
deal OF ceremony being INDUCED in and
states that a portion of it is of a secret
order, only the Initiated being adj
mitted to view it.-Little Falls Iran-.

The Quickest-Made Locomotive on Record.
Who would think, to look at a big
railway locomotive, that it could by
any possibility be put together in less
than one day? Yet such a feat has
been accomplished, according to no less
an authority than Engineering. It
was done at the Stratford works of the
Great Eastern Railway. The locomo-
tive was "a standard freight locomo-
tive OF the six-coupled type, weighing
more than thirty-seven tons, and able
to haul a load Of five hundred and sixty
TONS" From the driving of the first
rivet to the application of the final
coat Of varnish, the work occupied less
than ten hours!
The fastest piece of work of this kind
previously on record was the erection,
in 1888, at the Altoona works of the
Pennsylvania Railway Company, OF a
freight locomotive Of the four-coupled
type in sixteen hours and fifty minutes.
It is said, however, that the two cases
are not properly comparable. For the
Pennsylvania engine the frames had al
ready been erected, with all their cross
connections, the cylinders fixed, the
motion parts set, and the crosshead,
weighbar, and other parts put in place.
In the recent work at Stratford, on
the other hand, absolutely not a stroke
OF the work Of erection had been be-
gun. The various parts of the locomo-
tive, as made to standard gauge and
dimensions, were gathered together,
but not q rivet was in place, nor were
any two pieces put together.
The start was made at nine o'clock
in the morning, and eleven minutes
afterwards the first rivet was put into
the frames. The cylinders were set
and fixed in one hour and seventeen
minutes. Four hours and seventeen
minutes from the start the boiler was
in place, and an hour and twenty
minutes later the engine was wheeled.
The wheels were supplied just as
they left the shops, and the eccentric

opportunity for a symmetrical and at
tractive arrangement of cases and exhib-
it's. A broad flight of stairs, starting
opposite the main entrance, leads to a
landing which has a domed semi-circular
alcove, with a seat for resting place.
Under the stairs are the coat and check
rooms, and on the left of the staircase
superintendent room, with toilet room,
and connecting by passage under the
stairs with rooms for the bureau of in
formation and postofice on the other
side of the building.
The main stairs, running in two flights
from the landing, enter the large recep-
ton hall, which is symmetrical room
with a colonnade at the rear opening on
the staircase, and at the front by an
archway and passage opening to the log
gia and balcony. On either side are the
reception rooms devoted to the ladies
and gentlemen. On the front corner,
which is also the street corner, is room
for the board of commissioners. The
room for the ladies' auxiliary board is
also in front. The ladies' reading room
is connected by double doors with the
reception room, and in the rear. of this
suite are toilet rooms. Two guests
rooms are provided in the rear of the la
dies apartments, which are entered
through a private hallway.
Before the meeting adjourned the fol-
lowing resolution was passed:
The board of worlds fair managers of Min.
nesota desire to express to the architects who
submitted plans for the state building at Chi
cago its high appreciation of their work, and
the interest they so generously manifested,
which has resulted in offering to the board of
fourteen different plans to select from, all of
which are of high merit, thus affording the
board an opportunity of selecting plan of
very superior merit, while under the terms of
the rules governing the competition, confine
the reward to the three plans passed upon as
the best, this board feels that every COMPETE
tor is deserving of the only reward that it is
in the power of this board to give, it's most
sincere thank and gratitude.

THE MINNESOTA BUILDING
At THE
WORLDS FAIR.

The commission to prepare plans and
specifications for the Minnesota State
Building at the Worlds Fair, was award
ed to Mr.. VIM. Charming Whitney, a
Minneapolis architect, on May 18th, at a
full meeting Of the Minnesota Worlds
Fair Commission held at the State Cap
ftol.
A special commission on architecture
had been appointed, consisting of Presi-
dent Monfort, DR.. David Day, of St. Paul,
and Mr.. Charles s. Frost, a Chicago arch
itect, to examine the plans to be submit
ted in competition, and recommend which
to adopt.
A general competition was invited from
the architects of the state, and as a re-
suit fourteen designs were submitted.
The award to the successful architect
was the commission as architect of the
building, which is not to exceed $25, 1000
in cost. The second prize was awarded
to 9. Reed Dewey, and the third to A.
Zschocke, both Of ST. Paul.
THE ACCEPTED DESIGN.
The italian Renaissance adopted for
the design was in harmony with the best
buildings now designed for the exposition
grounds.
The perspective view is taken from the
street corner, as seen in approaching the
building from the fair grounds by the
main avenue to the state buildings. The
entrance is through a portico having
rusticated doric columns, and on the en-
tablature over the center the name of
Minnesota will appear in a raised panel.
ENTERING THE BUILDING
directly into the main exhibition hall,
which is 67x79 feet, space is afforded for
the display of the states resources. The
hall is eighteen feet high and will give

Dun's Review.

Speculation has not been especial
ly active, and wheat is unchanged in
price, though Western receipts are
1000, 600 bushels in three days, and
exports are only $4,000 bushels.
Corn receipts at the West are q
100000 bushels in three days, with
small exports, but the price has ad-
vanced 2 cts. and oats 3 cts. Pork
products are unchanged, but oil is a
cent and a half lower, and coffee
three-eights lower. In cotton no
change in price appears, though
transactions have been quite large,
$4,000 bales for the week, and the
weeks receipts have been larger
than a year ago.
Last weeks great export of gold
have caused neither trouble nor "a
larm, and shipments this week are
smaller than most expected, foreign
exchange having fallen to 4SS.
Gold exports were quite independ-
ent of merchandise balances, for the
enormous products exports in May
are followed by an increase 70 per
cent. in exports from New York in
June thus far, indicating an aggre-
gate for the fiscal year not far from
1,030 millions. Confidence in the
monetary future has been much
strengthened by political events,
and silver has declined to 4Oad. per
ounce. In every part of the coun-
try money is in abundant supply,
and the demand at nearly all points
is only moderate, collections being
gnerally quite satisfactory for the
season.
