THE EXPOSITION
Architecture of the International Show
TO he HELD I'M Omaha In 1sas.

w DC fteIu III oman In 1SDS.
The general scheme of the architec-
ture of the Exposition is the creation
OF the architects-in-chief. Unlike other
American exposition architecture,
elaborate color effects will character
ize it. Briefly stated, the buildings
and colonnades will present the aspect
OF a Pompeian rather than that of a
white city. The arena the architects
have chosen for a display of the high
est artistic effect will be pitched in the
great %rectangle known as "Kountze
%tract;" which is $50 feet wide and half
a mile long. 1t lies between Sherman
avenue and Twenty-fourth street. On
the South line Twentieth street enters
this tract midway, and here will be
erected the arch of states, the main
entrance to the grounds. A lagoon
extends the entire length of the rec
tangle. AT the west end will stand
the government building, thanked by
imposing c~olonnades. The lagoon at
this end will be a trefoil or three-lobed
lake, fully 200 feet across The col
onnades on either side converge
toward the west, creating thus a false
perspective greatly enhancing the
effect of distance. The greater build
lngs of the exposition will be situated
on either side of the lagoon running
east to Sherman avenue. Midway on
the north side the administration arch,
for which a contract has been let, will
be constructed. At the east end will
be a grand staircase, forming a mag
nlficent architectural finish to the en-
OF the picture, rising to a via
ducts spanning Sherman avenue. The
viaduct leads over into the amusement
section, which will be devoted largely
to concesSionaries.

The court, in general term, has decided
not to take any action looking to the ap-

day. A meeting was held yesterday after
noon to consider the matter, but defi-
mite action was deferred until this morn

Justice Bingham presiding.
The chief justice, speaking to The Times
representative, said that the impression
prevailed on the bench that Mr.. Birney's
term expired today, but when it was
learned that he would be able TO serve to-
morrow, the necessity for urgent action
disappeared and the matter would go over
until N Monday, and possibly until after some
thing Is done 10y the Senate Judiciary Conn

1t is believed that the committee will
obyiate the necessity OF action by the court
by reporting favorably upon the nonn alton

let the matter rest until it is seen what
action is likely to be taken by the Senate as

The case of Diana Romi, the Italian girl,
for whom an attachment was issued few

The deputy further asserts that Col Hay,

Nearly every one knows the rest of the
story; how, when the deputies were con-
Quoted behind the scenes, they found their

room until after midnight, and the next

TWO SHORT OF A MAJORITY.
Senator Mitcheli's Canvass OF His
Friends in Oregun's Legislature.


A private dispatch received in this city
from Senator John H. Mitchell states that
forty-four members OF the oregon legis-
latUre have agreed to go into joint con-
vention for the purpose of electing him
United States Senator. The dispatch has
considerably raised the hopes of his friends
here, for ii leaves him but two short Of a
majority. A peculiar feature OF the stua-
tion is that two years ago Senator Dolph
went into the joint convention with the
same number Of votes that Mitchell has
now, but could never secure the other Lwo
necessary to elect.
Senator Mitchell career has been a very
remarkable one. Although but sixty years
of age, he has figured in Senatorial con
tests in oregon for the past thirty years
lie had just reached the age required by
the Constitution, when he fell one vote
short of receiving the caucus nomination
OF the Republicans for the Senate
Six years later, in 1873, he was elected
The State went Democratic in 1879 and
his return was thereby prev In 1888
heagain Lacked one orthe number necessary
to elect, some Republicans refusing to go
into caucus. The session was almost at an
end, and it looked like no election, when
he voluntarily withdrew and advised his
friends 10 vote for Dolph, rather than de-
prive the State OF half Of its representation
in the Senate.
In 1855 he again came 10 the front,
and aIother bitter struggle ensued, which
finally terminated in his election through
the aid of Democratic votes. In 1891
his enemies made TO attempt to defeat
him, and he was returned without oppoSi-
ton. The opinion Of those familiar with
oregon politics is that the failure TO re-
turn Mitchell this time will disrupt the
Republican party of that State beyond
repair.
