ATLANTA's EXPOSITION.
The City Treasury to Be Tapped to the
Extent of $4,000.

Atlanta, Ga, March S.-The bitter
fight over the site for the proposed Cot
ton States Exposition, which has been on
for nearly a month, was settled to-day
Piedmont park is to be the place and the
city treasury is to be tapped to the tune
of $4,000. Seventy-fve thousand dol
lars of this is a clear donation to
the enterprise, and the remain
der $4,000 goes as hush money
TO the south-siders who have been
fighting the location of the exposition on
the north side. The terms of agreement
upon which the compromise was struck
are little short of scandalous, and if rat
ifed by council it is almost certain to be
over the vigorous protest of the Gisinter-
ested public. When Mayor Goodwin We
toed the proposition to buy Piedmont
park for sl65, 900, which was called

works property on the south side as a
site, he was Immediately backed up by
land owners who expected to be enriched
if the mayor won his fight This contest
between rival land-grabbers has caused
all the bad blood that has grown out of
the matter
THE MAYORS OFFER.
Seoeral days ago the mayor offered to
Duy So0,UUu worm OF the lana from the
northsders if they would stop their
clamor for the exposition site but they
( refused. To-day he came forward with a
proposition TO spend $4,000 of the city's
money on the old water works property to
make a PARK of it thus enhancing the value
OF adjacent land, if the southsiders
would hush, and they accepted
