Worlds Fair Matters.

CHICAGO, May l3-Whcn the gates
were thrown open at the worlds fair
this morning the prospects for a large
attendance were anything but promis-
ing. A chilly wind was blowing and the
atmosphere was damp, and dull, leadcn-
hued clouds overcast the sky. But the
threatening weather did not seem to
brighten visitors. They began to arrive
early, and as the day advanced the ar
rivals increased and before night it was
estimated that there were from 10000 to
10000 on the grounds. The feature was
the number of school children who WIS
tied the fair today, it being their regular
holiday, and thousands OF them took adj
vantage of it by taking IN the great eXhi-
bition.
The national commissioners had a
lively session today. The chief topic for
discussion was the action Of the local di-
rectors regarding the opening of the fair
on Sundays. The question came up
when Secretary Edmonds of the local
directory came in with a message from
President Higinbotham containing the
report of the action on the Sunday ques-
ton taken by the directors at the meet
ing last night. After a long wrangle the
matter was referred to the committee on
judiciary.

BosroN, May Notwithstanding
the rain. the third annual athletic meet
ing between Harvard and Yale took
place on Holmes field, Cambridge, this
afternoon. OF course there was not a
very large attendance on account Of the
disagreeable weather, but the size Of the
crowd WAS much larger than the man
agement expected. Many ladies wear
ing the colors of their fayorite university
graced the occasion by their presence
and remained on the wet benches until
the last event had been decided. The
crimson again triumphed over the blue,
but the result Of the games was in much
doubt until the last events had been
run of.

Harvard scores g. points to 10 points for
Yale. There were no records broken en-
cept in the running board jump, where
Bloss succeeded III jumping - feet /

New YORK, May l1.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review Of trade says: The
smash in industrial stocks a week ago
caused the failure of the National Cord,
age company and some other firms, and
the largest decline in stocks known in
any week since 1873, has been followed
by surprisingly little disturbance. Busi-
ness has shown remarkable soundness
and strength under such strain.

dianapolis and the rumors of others, re-
fleet large losses through Chicago spec
ulations in real estate and grain, and at
indianapolis through the failure of the

The interior money markets are growing
tighter and more cautious, but no such
stringency is yet seen as to check genor,

Important Questions that Must BE Strap
pied BY the Incoming Congress.
WAsHIyGToN, NAV 13.-The Star has
this: The democratic leaders in con
gress and the administration are trying
to come to an understanding as TO the
policy Of the next congress by which
they can avoid the danger of a split in
the party on the money question and SC
cure united action on several important
questions which will present themselves
1t is believed by those who have been
most active in tho matter that an agree
ment will be reached on the much dread
ed money question. In tact the pro
granme Of congress has been laid out
with considerable detail and great hopes
are entertained that the administration
and congress will dwell together in har-
mony. 1t is the present understanding
that a compromise proposition to
dispose Of the silver question by accom-
panying the repeal of the Sherman
law with the 1repeal of the ~ per cent
tax on state bank currency will receive
the sanction of the administration, and
that the men in congress who are fight
ing against any contraction of the cur
rency will be satisfied to let go of silver
if they can get state currency. 1t is de-
signed also to levy an income tax, and il
is believed that Cleveland will favor this.
Briefly, there are four things which it is
the desire of party leaders that the com
ing congress should dispose Of as speed
lily as possible; and it is thought that
Cleveland will dwell upon all Of them in
his first message. They are the repeal
of the federal election laws, the levy of
an income tax, the repeal of the Sher-
man law and Of the tax on state bank
currency, and a complete revision of the
tariff, making a very decided reduction
of duties all along the line.

Having the Great Exposition Open.
WASHINGTON, May 13.-Assistant Sec
rotary Curtis of the treasury department,
who has charge of the worlds fair mat
tiers, as far as they affect the treasury
department, said today that he had no
official information Of the purpose Of the
board Of directors to open the grounds
on Sunday, May u, until the subject
anne to him in an official manner. he
declined to express any opinion as to
what action if any the treasury officials
might feel called upon to take in regard
to the undelivcred balance of souvenir
CONS. Inquiry at the department of
justice as TO the decision of the board of
directors to open the worlds far grounds
on Sundays develops a feeling favorable
to 1t. 1t was pointed cut that the law
provides that the government exhibits
shall be closed on Sundays. Another
restriction is imposed in the appropria-
ton of S2,JOO,000 for souvenir coins.
This provides that the exposition shall
he closed on the first day of the week.
Nowhere is il made compulsory to close
the grounds in which the exposition is
being held. Attorney General Olney
will not express an opinion on the sub
iect as it will probably come to him for
judicial determination, but prominent
officials in the department of justice do
not hesitate to approve the action al
ready taken us being within the law, but
express Il hope that means may be found
to throw open the whole exposition on
Sundays.

Jackson Park TO Be Thrown Open to the
Public-Buiidings viii lie Closed.
CHICAGO, May 12-The worlds fair
gates will be opened to the public and
the vexed question Of Sunday opening is
settled. Early last Sunday morning
crowds began to move on to Jackson
park, thinking that perhaps the gates of
the fair grounds would be opened, but
they were disappointed and fully 10000
of the fair proper and spent their money
with the side shows surrounding the
fair, q fact which the fair authorities
were moi slow to grasp. As a result, at
the regular monthly meeting of the local
directors of the worlds fair it was de-
clded to open the gates of jackson park
to the public for one-half the sum of
admittance to the fair during the week,
viz % cents. This action has nothing to
do with the opening of tho buildings.
The latter will remained closed as re-
CURED under the laws passed by con
gress and as agreed to when the sum of
S2,JOO,OUO was accepted from the hands
Of the Fifty-scCond congress. Gate
keepers will admit to the grounds every
one paying - cents. They can examine
the buildings-on the outside d every
thing there is to be seen in fact. but they
cannot enter the buildings. The action
of the board will go into effect a week
from next Sunday or the 2lst Of this
month.

Weeks was co-trustcc in q number of Cs-
