STATE FAIR MANAGERS.
What They Did and Did Not Do at the
Chicago Meeting.

President officer of the state board
Friday where he has been to attend
the convention of the Western fair mana
gers association. Little was accom-
plished By the convention. he said, for
the reason that many states were not
represented. The most important bust
ness which was TO come up was the
fixing of dates so that the time of hold
ing fairs in neighboring states would
not conflict. Minnesota asked to hold
her fair during the first week in Septem-
Der. This has been Iowa's week, and her
representative consented, conditionally,
TO drop back a week. Mr.. officer stated
that Indiana would like to hold her fair
next year on the same dates as this
year, but this could not be definitely
settled because Illinois and Ohio were
not represented and the dates OF these
three states must not conflict. Secre-
tary Kennedy will try TO settle the mat
ter by correspondence. but II this Is not
successful a meeting Of representatives
of the states and Missouri will be called
for some time in January.
The Chicago convention accomplished
one thing that will meet the approval of
all stock men. Heretofore each state
had its rules as TO what should consti-
tute a herd in exhibits by herd. A herd
which might be eligible to exhibition in
this state would fail to peet the re-
quirements in another stkte. and the
only way that the stock could be eN-
hibited would be as individuals. The
convention passed a resolution making
the standard for herds uniform In all
states.

instead of the oil lamps. An important
witness at the investigation will be j.
W. Butler, hack-driver, who said today
that he was standing near Engineer
Wooley when Conductor Scott came up,
handed him his running orders and in
quired If he was ready to go. Wooley
replied In the affirmative and Scott said
Then go ahead" He says nothing was
said about No. having gone past. This
is corroborative of the statement Of the
conductor, who says that he did tell
Wooley the special had gone by; that
Wooley did not ask the question and he
supposed that Wooley was going to
stop at the long siding until, glancing
out of window, he saw that they were
going fast. The next instant the crash
came.

General Superintendent Atwater. who

''the blame wholly belongs to the en-

"This gave clear right Of way to the
