A DESERTED VILLAGE.
All Is Confusion Where Thousands Have
Met All Summer.

CHICAGO, Nov. 4.-Confusion holds sway
at the fair grounds now. Wagons laden
with heavy machinery keep up horrible
roar as they head for the gates. Freight
vehicles of every description go heller
skelter through the broad avenues, and
thousands of men at work with hammers
and sledges add TO the din. The hereto
fore spotless interiors of the palatial build
ings are dust begrimmed The Midway
Plaisance Is being torn down. In few
more days it will be a mass debris In
couple of weeks there will be nothing re-
manning to remind one of its existence.
Within the same period those exhibits
that are not reserved for the Columbian
museum will be gone and the main build
ings will be destroyed.
Desolation reigns Immediately outside
the gates. The territory for blocks around
the fair grounds looks like deserted viii
lage fast crumbling into ruin. Only the
substantial merchants remain. The fakirs,
cheap restauranteurs and keepers of i'm
provised hotels have moved on and left
their tents unfolded.
The permanent structures that were
used for hotels during the exposition are
being turned into apartment houses and
flats, though some of the better houses
are yet running on the old system with q
cheaper bill of fare, and their price of
lodging divided by four.
Most of the gates are closed up. Only
about half a dozen gatekeepers are en-
ployed, and visitors at the pay gates are
30 scarce that the gatekeeper Is surprised
each time paid ticket is handed him.
The ] ,587 Columbian Guards are all to be
retained until Dec. and the majority Of
them will hold on until spring.

"While the American people should

whether he had left the party or it had
left him.
