INCIDENTS AT THE FAIR.

THE completion of the Texas State
building was celebrated by the inaugu-
ration of a series of musical recitals TO
be given by amateur talent in the audi
forum Of the handsome structure from
time to time throughout the summer.
By this plan the ladies of the Lone Star
State will place before the public a
unique exhibition Of state culture and
dramatic talent The occasion also
marked the opening of the building,
which is now complete in every detail,
although it will not be officially dedi-
Gated until July 20.
WITHOUT formality the doors of the
building erected by the republic of
Colombia were thrown open. 1t is
stored with rich products of tropical
soil and interesting fabrics manufac-
tured in Colombia. Formal celebrations
are reserved for July 20, which is ma
tional independence Day in Colombia.
The Argentine sections in the manu-
features, agricultural, forestry and
mining buildings will be formally
opened for inspection tomorrow
THE Sitting Bull cabin and historical
cole ction OF Indian relics on Midway
Plaisance has been formally opened to
the public without ceremony. Old
Chief Northumberland leader under
Sitting Bull at the Custer massacre, re-
ceived the visitors who had been in
vited to inspect the exhibit on the open
ing day. The cabin is the same one in
that he resided in a house, and at the
shot and killed by regulars two years

A POSSIBLE ROYAL GUEST.
Celebration of German Day at the Fair StIrS
Up the Kaiser.

CHICAGO, Ill, July S.-That William
H., Germany's young ruler, will accept
the invitation of the President Of the
United States to visit the Worlds CO.
lumbar Exposition is the declaration
recall of the imperial commits
sioner, William Wermuth, through
whose energy and activity Ger
many's matchless exhibition in Jackson
Park has been made possible. Mr.. Wer-
muth sails for home July 70. His re-
call is ostensibly OccasiOned by business
of a private character. but among his
associates it is asserted that the commits
sioner has been called back to the father
land to escort Emperor William to Chi
cagO. Commissioner Wermuth saws
that he hopes and confidently expects to
return before the close ofthe exposition,
and that fact strengthens the current
rumOr. In an interview Mr.. Wermuth
said to-day:
"Of the fair as whole, | may say i'm
partially it is the grandest exposition
yet conceived. 1t is the utmost any
body can accomplish. ItWOuld be dan
gerOus to attempt to 90 further, for to
do SO is more than human energy can
see. The highest thing | can say of it
complete and the whole grand scheme
is the most beautiful thing the cen
turtles have produced. Our papers
are now full of it's praises and
our people are all talking of
the great fair in Chicago. The Emperor
himself is much interested and wants
to see it. l have reported to him that,
without much experience in this regard,
Americans have made the greatest eX-
hibition ever seen, beyond which it is
impossible to go, and | have described
the splendid way in which the work is
done. He is more than pleased, he is
quite delighted"
'As a matter of fact is it not to be one
of your duties on going home to escort
Emperor William to the fair ?'
II do not want to answer that ques-
ton now. Emperor William is very
much interested, especially since he
learned how the people celebrated Ger
man day, but | am not prepared to say
that he will come"
Neither would the commissioner say
that he would not, and the inference is
that Mr.. Wermrth will return in Sep
TENDER and His Imperial Majesty Will
lam II. will accompany him back to
Chicago if no objection to such a course
arises before September.

CHOCTAWS ARE INDIGNANT.

The Natives May Decide to Execute the
Twelve Political Offenders.
SOUTH MCALLIsTER, [. r., July 8.-As
the facts concerning the respite granted
the Wilberton murderers gradually leak
out the more evident it is that the stu
alton is assuming alarming proportions.
The opinion is general among
leading Choctaws that in compelling
Gov. Jones to grant a respite the
United States government has usurped
the power vested in the constitu
ton and laws of the Choctaw nation.
What will be his course when a new
date for the execution is to be set can
not be foretold as there is no law nor
precedent to go by. 1t is claimed that
tn. Sespite is limited only to next Fri
day, when, if there is no other inter-
ference, the respited prisoners will be
executed with the five other condemned
men who have never been respited. A
motion for a new hearing in behalf of
the latter has been filed before Judge
Holston, but has not been granted. The
militia has not been disbanded as re-
