THE ORDER is ISSUED FOR
NEXT SUNDAY.
omciaiIv Announced that the WORLDS
Fair VIII BE Open To the Public 'nth

eraI May Get an Injunction.

CHICAGO, May Director of Works
Burnham has sent out the official an
nouncement that the Worlds Fair VIII
be open next sunday. The announce
ment was brief and TO the point. IL
was buried midway in a number OF
other orders and read:
The park will also be open TO the
public Sunday next, May .s, until IL
p. m, buildings closing at 10 p, m.
Mr.. Burn ham course was in the
main the outcome of the recent meet
ing of the National Commission, when
that body refused 10 set aside the rule
made by the directory that the Expo
sition should be open on Sunday. Mr..
Burnham had conference with Presi-
dent Higinbotham. They talked over
the situation and decided that 1t
would conserve the best interests OF
the Exposition to officially announce
AT once that the Fair would be open
next sunday Notice was sent TO the
heads of all departments and arrange
ments were at once begun to have
everything in readiness for the
throngs which are expected next sun
day.
President Higinbotham does not be-
live in crossing bridges before they are
reached-neither does Mr.. Burnham,
but several of the Exposition Off ials
are. in spite of Mr.. Burnham's an
nouncement not 20 sure that the
gates will be open. 1t is expected in
some quarters that persons opposed to
Sunday opening will now resort to the
courts and seek to lock the World 5
Fair with an injunction.
According to one official this eNpec
tation was one of the reasons why the
official announcement was issued.
As one official said: Mr. Burn
ham and Mr.. Higginbotham have just
taken the bull by the horns. | under
stand that the announcement was is
sued in order to give Sunday-closers q
chance to file an application for an in
junction. so that the court could have
time to hear the arguments in the case
before the document is issued. Again
the action was taken SO the matter
could be settled once for all. If the
gates are open next Sunday il will be
fair to presume that that will be the
rule for the rest of the Exposition pc
riod. 1t is expected also that next Sun
day the real wishes of the public viii
be learned. Should the park be
crowded it will be patent that an oper

The Republican cry that the canals

is contemplated for the Canadian
steamers. Then with electric-motive
power on the canal we will be enabled

which we need fear serious competit-
ion for the grain trade of the West.

PAID UP in ADVANCE.
FAILURE OF A WORLDS FAIR
HOTEL SCHEME.
People Who Had Paid In Advance for
Their Rooms Must Now Hustle for
other Quarters or Stay mt Home
indianapolis People Lose $4,000.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, May o5.-Two
or three hundred persons here, who
for the last year have been paying
money TO the Aldinc Hotel Company
OF Chicago, received notice that the
company has gone into bankruptcy.
The company was one OF the numer-
GUS hotel concerns organized for profit
during the Worlds Fair. Agents were
sent all over the west and south. and
the best citizens in town were solic-
tied To engage quarters with the cor
Germ. The money was all to be paid
in advance in installments. Many In
dianapolis people paid as much as 5000
each. and but few of the subscribers
paid less than $50.
The agent who visited this city was
Tom Caldwalder, an Old indianapolis
travelling man, and he did big bust
ness here. Among the persons who
had engaged quarters at the hotel
were Gov. Matthews, Auditor of State
Henderson and many bankers and
wholesale and retail merchants who
had confidence in the agent. The
patrons of the hotel made their last
ayment only last week. 1t is esti-
mated that the concern got at least
$4,000 cut Of this city.
There is also long list OF sub
scribers at Tcrre Hautc and Evans
vile, and persons in nearly every city
and town in the State had patronized
this concern. 1t is understood here
that the President of the Chemical
Bank, which recently failed, is the
President of the company. The clrcu'
lars received here state that the in.
crease in the cost of building ma
terial and the higher prices demanded
for labor are the. prime causes of the
failure of the project.
The subscribers here will demand an
investigation. They suspect that the..
money was in the broken Chemical
Bank. 1t was the understanding
among the subscribers that their
money was to be used in part in the
erection of the hotel The subscribers
have nothing 20 show for tbei~ money
except receipts from the company.

feited.


feited.
WASHINGTON, May s5.-The Treas
ury department will soon issue cir
cular of far-reaching Importance To
national banks and bankers and TO
the banking public. II will take as a
text the failures of national banks
which are occurring from day TO day,
and will point out that these failures
are being caused by the speculation of
bank officials. But the most import
ant feature of the circular will be its
suggestions in the nature of fair
warning that, unless this practice is at
once abandoned. the federal authori-
ties will take steps To forfeit the
charters OF good many national
banks.
This circular is the result of n feel
ing aroused in administration circles
over recent bank failures. For sew
eral days there had been n respite
in failures, but to-day they began
again First came the collapse OF the
National Bank of Deposit in New
York, with occurred after the close
of banking hours, and was not
reported here until the morning.
little later came the announcement
from Elnira, y. v. that the leading
national bank there had closed its
doors.
The treasury officials found that pri
Misrepresentation among the bank 9th
cial had again been the cause of these
two failures II was this that brought
about the determination To issue the
very pointed official circular TO all ma
tional banks warning them that their
charters would be forfeited if the bank
officers were permitted to speculate
with the funds of the bank
Comptroller Eckels learned that
President /imri Dwiggins of Columbia
Bank fame had again figured in the
affairs of the National Bank of De-
To.it at New York. II appears that
Mr. Dwiggins held contract with
the New York bank by which he was
TO secure the entire control of it, The
contract was vacated. however. about
a week ago. Outside OF the contra I
the bank held about 100000 of the
peculiar stock issued by Mr.. Dwig=
gins. This ENHANCEMENT with Dwig-
gins is regarded as the cause of the
New York failure. The official reports
from Elmira show that the bank Off
GERS were carrying on wholesale pri-
vate speculation. The capital of the
bank was $3.50, 900, but the loans to
bank officers were also fully $3.50. 600
nder the banking act an officer of n
bank cannot borrow more than 10 per
cent of its capital stock. yet in this
case, as in many preceding ii, com
bination of the bank officers was eff
fected by which they drew out not
only 10 per cent of the capital but the
entire capital.

IRON BUSINESS IS STEADY.
MnI Products VIII Not he Active Until
Money Becomes Available.

Mil Products VIII Not he Active Until
Money Becomes Available.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, May u. The Iron
Trade Review this week says:
Conservatism leaning to caution but
not partaking of timidity characteriles
the iron market. Business goes steadily
on. in spite of untoward developments
in the East, that have compelled banks
all over the country to shorten their
lines of discounts sharply and to stop
making new loans: but there
is deal of waiting by pro-
jectors of new enterprises. Con-
sequently expectations have not
been met in the finished material
trade, and mill products will not move
out into consumption in volume equal
to that of a year ago, for example,
until money again becomes available
in usual quantity and on usual securi-
ties.
In the raw-iron market the feature
is the change of feeling among East
ern producers. An advance OF about
80 cents in freights on Southern pig to
all points on the Pennsylvania, Balti-
more & Ohio and Reading Railroads
takes effect June ], and, while no de-
cided quotations have been made as
yet, Pennsylvania holders are disposed
to ask from % to 80 cents more for
standard irons.

broadax at Sand Creek coal mines
three miles from here. With another
man they were lodging at the same
house, cutting ties for the Midland
Railroad. Both live in Rockville, and
both were drinking men. Thomas
head was almost severed from his
body, his hand was cut and there was
third cut on the hip. He died before
assistance could be given him. Puett
surrendered to the Sheriff. He claims
the deed was done in self defense.
