Which Visitors to Chicago Should Take
Into Consideration.
sornrse IS Dolse-
When all the Facts BECOME Known -
Great many VIM be s1asoons
or Stay at Home.

ShiCAdo, aug. "a very Important
question confronting the worlds fair
management is the natter.of the trans
portation of visitors to and from the
grounds. It has been assumed that
facilities for handling 900 people an
hour would be no more than adequate to-
provide the attendants at the fair with
the necessary accommodations for going
to and returning from the grounds to the
city without dlscomfort. The street
cars will ACCOMMODATES many, the
elevated road will take care of many
more and the boats on the lake will
carry some. 1t would be q reasonable
estimate to say that these three modes
of conveyance could accommodate so, ,O00
persons an hour, leaving 100 900 an hour
to depend on the railroads. Eight cars
would be about the limit in size of these
trains, although ten could be drawn. A
car will seat about sixty passengers
But suppose each should carry eighty,
this would make for train of ten cars
800 passengers. 1t would take an hour
and q half to make the round trip, and
perhaps four minutes between trains
a simple calculation shows that to han
die 100, 900 passengers an hour under
such conditions would require 900 carEs
The cost of 500 cars ut s., zoo each and
of 150 locomotives at 81 900 would call
for an outlay Of n, 500, 900 for cars and
81 ,050 600 for locomotives, or a total ex
penditure of IS, ,550, 600 for rolling stock
alone.
4 railroad official said the other day
that he did not believe ali the railroads
in the city could, on three-days' notice,
lend to another road for a days use
twenty cars. When one considers the
demand that will be made for cars on
the roads in the transportation of their
own passengers to and from Chicago it
is not reasonable to suppose that thes
can furnish / 500 for carrying passen-
gers from the city TO the worlds fair
grounds. Not long ago O committee of
railway officials was asked to make re-
port upon this subject. The report de-
clared that, leaving out the Illinois Cen
tral, all the railway companies in the
city could not handle 10000 passengers
an hour without going to some millions
of dollars expense for rolling stock. But
this is only one phrase of the question
Terminal facilities at the worlds fair
adequate for the handling of 100000
pas sengers an hour cannot be put in
without much work, extending through
several months. Yet practically moth
ing has been done. Any one who goes
to Jackson park and attempts to come
back when the work stops in Intervening
and the workmen start for. home can.
understand what the difficulties will be-
when 10000 or 40 600 people want TO,
take the train at the same hour for the
city, to say nothing of 100, 900 people.

Why Boston Weeps.

A little figuring upon the result of the
League championship race, had there been
no dual season, is quite interesting in re-
suits. If there had been no division and
no new start, the Clevelands would have
had very little chance to beat the Bostons
out. Indeed, with n continuance of games
the Bostons would now be the only club
lin it," That fact is what makes the
Boston club so much disgusted with the
double championship plan, for it is evident
that the Clevelands, as the last winners,
will be regarded everywhere us the real
