TALK OF CLOSING HOSPITAL
Trustees of Presbyterian Charitable
Institution to Hold mn Important
Meeting.

The trustees Of the Presbyterian hospital
will have a meeting this afternoon to
take up certain phases OF the finances OF
the institution. The wording OF the call for
the meeting was such as to give some who
saw it the impression that the hospital was
about to be closed, and that the trustees
were called to take action upon that propo-
sition. While this theory is not directly
denied by those connected with the hospital,
1t is said that the trustees are not thinking
OF closing and are called merely to straighten
out some old claims. One OF the physicians
in charge said that the hospital was on a
paying basis and was the only charitable
institution OF the kind in this section OF the
country that was. He declared that the hos
pital was not in danger Of being closed, or
that II it was he knew nothing about it, and
the action would not be due to financial
difficulties.
A number OF years ago the hospital did not
pay and ran into debt. Some of these debts
are still standing against 1t and these the
trustees will have to settle in some way.
Whether they are of so pressing a nature as
to threaten the life of the institution or not
could not be learned, many Of the trustees
being temporarily out OF the city.

PROMOTER N'GARVIE HERE
In Charge of Greater America Exposition
Special Days and Features,
He is MAN OF GREAT HUSTLING ABILITY
Is Confident that the Success of the
Exposition Is Assured, Now
that There IL Plenty of
Money in Sight.

Mr.. II. F, McGarvie. who last year held
the position of superintendent of special
days at the Transmississippi Exposition, has
returned to Omaha from his headquarters In
New York City, having been called here by
the executive committee of the Greater
America Exposition to take charge OF the
special days and new amusement features
which will be added from time to time dur
ing the next six weeks.
Mr.. McGarvie came here to accept the po-
sition OF superintendent OF amusements and
general advertising agent and will have
charge Of the work OF organizing excursions
to visit the exposition from the surrounding
states. Mr.. McGarvie Ia convinced that
with hard work the attendance can be very
greatly increased by means Of these excur-
stems. and acting upon that belief has
already set to work to boom the enterprise.
This morning over IS. 900 large fve-colored
posters we're shipped to points within a
radius OF 500 miles of Omaha and the work
OF advertising will be rapidly pushed.
Speaking Of the exposition and the outlook
for a successful closing month, Mr.. McGarvie
said:
II have looked the situation over very
carefully and in my judgment the exposition
is a very credftable one. In many OF It's
features 1t Is superior to the exposition OF
last year. Inc electric llBuLlns oicSIo h"'S
been very much improved and the lagoon mas
been greatly beautifed by the addition OF
iowef beds and tropical trees"
at is the disposition of the executive
committee to add greatly to the attractions
from day to day in the way Of special fea'
lures, consisting OF parades by the conces>
sionaires, exhibitors, Indians and other
people on the grounds, high rope walkers,
carnivals on the lagoon, horse races, balloon
ascensions and such other attractions as
they may be able to secure from time to
time. During the last few days there has
been manifested an entirely different feeling
on the part Of everybody connected with the
exposition. They now feel that the rail-
roads having been induced to lower their
rates and with the exposition management
flooding tho country with large posters, and
the addition of new features, that the at
tendance will be greatly Increased, and
that the exposition will close In a blaze Of
glory. The buildings having been disposed
OF to a Chicago syndicate for a large sum
Of money the executive committee finds
itself placed upon an almost Independent
basis and it can now see its way cleac.

TRIAL ON THE FRENCH PLAN
Witnesses Try to bier Arguments
from the stand, but Are
sharply Cut on.

An ltalianized imitation of the Dreyfus
trial was staged in Justice Cockrell's court
yesterday when the hearing Of the suit
OF Louis Gnecco against Alfons Caramanna
for labor performed In the international
building at the exposition took place.
Gnecco sued the southlander of the musical
name for ten days work unpacking break
a-brac," as 1t was called by the witnesses,
and putting IT In place for exhibition and
sale. The defense admitted that Gnecco had
worked and that such work was worth SO
per day, but tried to show that Gnecco's
work was no good. They simply told the
court that he hadn't earned the money and
expected that their word would circulate on
a par with gold coin.
The volubility of the witnesses and their
perfect assurance that they could tell the
court what real justice in the case would be
finally led to an abrupt ending OF the trial.
The testimony of the last witness was typical
Of all the rest and went about as follows:
What is your name?"
A ripple of vowels and liquid sounds de-
flying imitation In type ollowed.
"Oh, yes, l was introduced to him when I
first came here. That was the time
when l."
Now, wait a minute, Are you acquainted
with the value OF the services OF a packer
Of s~tatuary and art goods?"
"Ah. indeed, yes. No one can tell better
than l what It is worth. I will tell the
Judge; 1t is worth a dollar or a dollar and a
half a day. I myself have had work for me
good men for that much. I can assure the
Judge that 1t Is not worth more to unpack
the goods. But II you pack the goods 1t is
different. Then you wrap each piece with
paper, 50. I will show you"
The witness sprang up from his seat and,
seizing a rubber stamp from the Judges
desk, gesticulated deliberately as he showed
how he would wind paper around it, sup
posing that 1t we're a dainty piece Of carved
marble. But the court swung his gavel and
declared that arguments from the witness
chair would have to stop and that testimony
to the effect that ten hours work of a
skilled packer was worth only a dollar was
too light to sway the scales Of the goddess
who presides in this neck Of the woods. He
rendered Judgment in favor OF Gnecco for $50
for ten days work. Caramanna's attorney
gave notice OF appeal and the troop Of wit
nesses left the court room. chattering and
waving their hands.
