fair field for friendly rivalry, and an in
com parable opportunity for gaining
special favor in the eyes and st the
hands OF vast coneourse of consum-

The transcontinental railways have
agreed to return free all exhibita chat

over the same lines coming into San
Francisco, provided these exhibits have
not changed hands, and goods not
likely to be returned after the exposi-

reduced rates.
The tracks of the Southern Pacific
company have been laid directly into
exposition buildings, and exhibits can
be unloaded at the very spot where
they are to be installed.
