VISITORS AT OMAHA.
Attendance Increasing and EXPOSE
ton Paving It's Debts.

Omaha, Aug. 1.-THE record of increas-
ing exposition attendance continues. AL
though the seven days just past did not
involve any feature that compared in gen.
eral interest with the Flower day and In
dian day celebrations the preceding
week, the aggregate attendance was fully
as great.
The aggregate attendance during the
week was 10000. distributed as follows:
Sunday. 1872; Monday, 1924; Tuesday,
u, SOS; Wednesday, 1880; Thursday, 17,150;
Friday, Is, no; Saturday, 1900.
The receipts for July, the second month
of the exposition, were highly satisfac-
tory. Fifty thousand dollars of the float
ing debt was paid, in addition to running
expenses. June, the first month, a little
more than paid expenses. 1t is claimed
here that no former American exposition
made so fattering a showing the first 50
days. The prospect for the remaining
months of the exposition is very bright.
