The morning call., 1894-03-27

and learn what concessions were 10 be
granted On German day. That committee
consisted of NJ. GreenbIatf, AdOlph
Becker and A. EutZmann, and through
Mr.. Greenblatt the following was re ported /:
On the matter of con essions in a war of
reduced price of admission the executive
committee OF the exposition made ten
propositions. The first one was that all
persons III archiDg in the procession would
be admitted for 80 cents each, other per-
sons of course to pay the usual price OF go
cents. The second uffer was that on con-
dition of the committee on German day
paying the exposition authorities bonus
of $1,000 the general admission for that
day would be reduced to % cents.
SO far as other concessions we're cons
cerned, Mr.. Greenbl tt reported that music
would be furnished free, the use of Fes-
tival Hall and the recreation grounds
would be extended graf 5, display of fire.
works would be furnished In the evening.
and other small matters could be satlsfac-
torily arranged.
The executive committee had also agreed
that Sunday, May 81, or June 10, should
be set apart as German Day. MIR. Green
blatt said that it was only after great
deal of urging that the fair authorities had
consented TO setting apart 4 Sunday for
them, and shat it had been expressly
stated that 1t was the only time this con-
cesslOn had been granted. and that 1t
would not be extended to any other Or
ganiZatioD.
The first part IF the report raised reg
ular storm of opposition. For more than
an hour the matter was discussed, al.
though the arguments were all on one side,
and 1t finally resulted in the adoption OF
resolution introduced by L. Dohrman, to
the effect that unless the rate OF general
admission on that particular day was re-
duced to 25 cents the executive committee
on German day at the fair would dissolve
without further action, and there would
be no German day at the fair. This reso-
luton was carried unanimously.
The committee on programme reported
and their report was accepted and laid on
the table until the matter of the price o.
admission could be definitely disposed OF.
The committee which had visited the
authorities of the fair declined to go again,
and asked 10 be released from further duty,
but this was refused and they were in
structed to again confer with the executive
Committee of the fair, stating the position
of the German societies as represented
and making another demand for general
admission fee of % cents on German day.
