Directors and Architects Consider
Plans for Scattering the
Concessions.

Fear That Usual Arrangement

st. Louis Worlds Fair may have no
Midway" The elimination of this feature
has been discussed both in informal gather
tngs of directors and informally by the
Commission of Architects. The concessions
may be scattered instead Of being masssd
in one street.
Up to the present It has been taken for
granted that st. Louis's Fair would have
street or a region where concessions like
the beautiful Orient the hula-hula dancers.
the Nautch dancers and similar diversions
would be massed. The fact that Chicago,
Omaha. Buffalo and other recent EXPOSE
lions have had the feature has produced the
idea that midway is an absolute essen
tial OF an exposition. To avoid the con-
tingency that the name midway attached
to this region, would carry n "Reminiscences
of Chicago. many persons have been rack
ing their brains to find substitute name.
Chairman Carter Of the Government Com
mission volunteered 1.-THE Santa Fe Trail.s
The Corso. FL Recrayo, Ell PIaceo the Om-
MUM, Merrysite. the Kaleidoscope. the

the thousands Of names suggested.

at all will be needed. because the thing IT.

Of the group who was chief architect Of the
Omaha Exposition.
AT Omaha we tried to shake or the
Chicago names. We selected our own
names for the districts In the Fair and
nut them on the maps, but 1t was labor
lost.
1.-THE names we chose stuck fairly well
until the last month. which is really the
best month Of any exposition. Then came
the man who had been at the Chicago Elk
position. and 1t was nothing but the Court
Of Honor" and the Midway" fear It will
be the same with st. Louis Chicago's ex-
position may not have been grander than
st. Louis's will be. but It came first
I'VE will simply have to wipe out the
thing to get rid OF the name" answered
Cass Gilbert, another Of the group. We
will have to wipe out the Midway to get
rid Of the Midway. We viii have to make
our Fair 20 totally different from anything
that Chicago had that Chicago names will
not apply. You cannot keep q man from At

not be allowed to mingle with the big ex-
hibit buildings. because a sacrifice Of dig

the State and foreign buildings might add
life to an exposition district which usually
Is the apotheosis Of dullness. In 81. Louis,
however. the concessions can run over into
the county. while the Fair proper. includ-
ing the State and foreign buildings, must
be kept within the city. This IS the prob

ARGUMENTS OFFERED
AGAINST THE MIDWAY.

1t is pointed out that the plan Of scatters
ing concessions would have several ad-
vantages. Chicago's Midway after nightfall,
1t is argued. was not a moral place. The
''barkers." or "spielers." who vociferously
solicited patronage in front Of the booths
are regarded by opponents Of Midway al
an undesirable feature Of a worlds fair.
When the Directors Of the st. Louis
Worlds Fair visited Buffalo to dedicate the
Louisiana Purchase building. they studied
Buffalo's Midway with an eye to st. Louls'S
performances in that field Their train was
sidetracked in the grounds. within Q stones
throw Of the entrance to the Midway. and
they had ample opportunity to observe that
institution by day and by night.
On several occasions the Directors dis
cussed the influence which the massing Of
the concessions had on the character Of the
exhibitions and the advisability Of cutting
CUT at st. Louis some Of the exhibitions
that had become Midway fixtures. even to
the extent OF abandoning the Midway alto
