THE CHILDS-DREXEL HOME.
Charge of MisapproprIa:ion of Funds ans
Its Denial.


At its meeting in Chicago on Saturday the
international Typographical Union decided to
publish the report of the investigation OF the
Childs-Drexel Home. SO much of the pro-
ceedings had already become known. As re-
suit of the Investigation it was found it Is said.
that the funds had been grossly msappro-
priated: that the home hf d not been built ac-
cording to specifications. and that at present
the building in such a condition that it ia
liable to collapse. The investigating commit
tee found the board of trustees guilty of a
violation Of trust and censured especially as
responsible for this condition OF affairs J. d.
Vaughn Of Colorado Springs and August
Donath of Washington. Upon legal advice it
Was decided not to prosecute. but to remove
the two offending trustees. The sum of IS 500
was then appropriated to put the home in
proper condition.
Mr.. August Donath. the Washington member
of the board OF trustees of the home has made
public a statement in which he sets forth his
own side Of the case. He saws that not a dol
lar of the funds of the institute was ever ex-
pended except on proper vouchers. and that all
the work was done by bonded and presumably
responsible contractors working under an ex-
pert superintendent. none OF the three mem
bers of the board considered himself an expert
In building matters. 1t is claimed that a large
part of the money needed to complete the
structure ia designed for new work and that
consequently $4,000 is all that is necessary to
put the building in satisfactory condition
Both Mr.. Donath and Mr.. Vaughn left the
board year ago.

Large as Was Expected.

In Consequence the Attendance Was Not as
Large as Was Expected.
With the mercury in the thermometer stick
ing near the ninety degree mark in the shade it
was hardly reasonable to expect great crowd
of people at the Chicago fair yesterday. Ex-
cepting on the wooded island the white city
was hot, and in some of the glass-roofed build
ings. especially machinery hail. the heat was
felt more than in the open air. Tie Plaisance
is absolutely barren of shade trees. but that
part of the park was a favorite resort for thou
sands of people al! day, because of the inviting
liquid and iced refreshments which could be
obtained in the villages and cafes. Even the
fine arts building was not crowded much as
usual, and there was plenty of room in the
aisles of every building that open to the
public.
1t was an amusemeut-loving crowd which
blocked the Plai5ance. and one which usually
is bent on worldly enjoyment on Sunday, fair
or no fair.
woman and her little son had close shave
from being seriously, If not fatally. injured by
falling glass in the Illinois building The
mother was wheeling chair. in which the boy
sat along the main aisle on the east end when
a whole pane of roof glass came crashing to the
floor. part of it striking the boy and woman.
Both were badly frightened, and the boys
hand was slightly cut. Several other visitors
were tOucheu DI the raining SlaSS, out not hurt.
The uncertainty to whether the gates
would be open kept the crowd down. as it gave
the people no time to prepare for visit.
There was no time to arrange for religious
services as proposed by the exposition direc-
tors. but the usual musical program was carried
out on the bard stands Toward evening the
thermometer dropped u few Dogs. and the peo-
pie came ont to swell the dav's attendance as
well as to see the Sunday illumination of the
buildings and grounds. Many people patron
lied the lake boats. but did not enter the
grounds. preferring to wait for cooler day.
The great Ferris wheel. the Eiffel tower of
the worlds fair Is to be formally opened to the
