WORLDS FAIR, CHICAGO, May 29.-Cathedral
bells pealed out from the towers OF machinery
hall this morning, ringing in the fifth week Of
| the exposition. An ideal summer day brought
out multitude Of people and augured well
for the weeks financial showing. The
Worlds Fair hotels, on the outskirts Of the
Park are beginning to open for business and
the proprietors are smiling because they have
some guests for q change. People who live far
| away are now coming to see the fair, having
held back on account Of the weather and the
incomplete condition of many departments
The foreign sections in liberal arts building
are opening to the public in rapid succession
and within the next. ten days the work of in
practically complete. Chief Allison has drawn
the lines tighter than usual and foreign COM
mlssioners, as we'll as individual exhibitors,
have been given to understand that failure to
comp!ote their displays by the end OF this week
viii be inexcUsable.
Russia, Brazil, Norway, Argentine and Spain
are the furthest behind in their work, but tnore
have been accidents and other unav oidable
delays IN their cases. The same countries are
lass!ng in agricultural hail, the exhibits Of
hussia and Brazil not being unpackod yet.
Eapid progress has boon made i'll electric ity
Barrett saws all the illuminated features will be
seen i'll operation when the formal opening
takes place mex. Thursday. The sight promised
will rival the electric display around th grand
basin.
THE LAST TRACK REMOVED.

way yards to the main entrances of mining,
electricity and manufactures buildings was
taken up this morning. THIS is tho last rail-
road track i'll the grounds aud it has deliv-
cred thousands ot CIR loads OF exhibits to the
various buildings during the past few months.
The earth will be enoothed over to hide tho
small ravine made by the track and it's coz, pleioa
will add much to disappearance Of Administra-
ton place.

TaE IRISH VILLAGE EXHIBIT.
The attention of MIS-. Peter White. the man.
aSer of the Irish industries village, was today
called to the following London cablegram,
which appeared in the daily papers yesterday !:
The second incident which the tories exploiting
to enorce the ssons erawn by LLen FRO the Lon
donaerry IL ths refusal OF the Eari OF Aberdeen
TO hoist the British az over the Irish Gcrartnen
the Chicago worlds This. too. Will be made
question OF censtrc Ct the government.
Mrs. White when asked for an explanation
said that the exhibition was the result OF indi-
viduai effort. stimulated by that national senti-
ment which Lady Aberdeen. tho principal pro-
moter. had readily recognized. Funds to es-
tablishit were contributed not only by men Of all
political parties. but also by American gentlemen
of Irish oyrnpathies Tho association, she said,
is absolutely non-political in character, and is
the work OF an incorporated company that is in
no way connected With the British govern
ment.
"The absurdity," said Mrs. White, "of an
attempt to make political capital out OF
an incident Of this kind is n. once
apparent, since there is no reason why
the village should fly the British or any
other flag. its objects being purely in
dustrial. The only flags that will float over the
village of the Irish Industrial Association arc
the star spausled banner Of the United States,
our present hosts, and the ancien: sunburst tag
of Ireland -
