THIRTY CARS OF APPLES
ARRIVE FOR WORLDS FAIR.
Pick of the Crop of Many States to
Be Stored Here Until EXPOSE
tiOn Opens.

Thirty carloads Of the pick of the apple
crop in States from Virginia to Nevada
and Arkansas to Massachusetts, arrived in
st. Louis yesterday.
The magnificent genealogical specimens
are to be exhibited at the Worlds Fair,
and were shipped here by the agricultural
departments of the various State EXPOSE
ton Commissions.
The shipment includes every variety of
apple. from the big red pippin down to
the small. hardy russell. All the speci-
mems were selected with the greatest care,
whole counties having been searched to
find the largest and finest fruit. Another
shipment Of thirty carloads will reach the
city before the 1st of January
Yesterdays shipment came packed in
barrels. In many instances each apple in
certain barrels was swathed in cotton, or
wrapped up in many thicknesses Of cloth,
to protect 1t from the cold and possibility
of being bruised or scratched. The bar
rels are prominently marked and labeled,
so it willy be possible to place them on the
exact spot in the Agricultural Palace de-
signed for the State in, which the apples
were raised.
The apples will be stored in downtown
warehouses until next spring, when the
barrels will be moved to the Fair grounds
and their contents placed on the display
tables.

NOVEL EXHIBITS
FOR EXPOSITION.
Colorado Man Proposes to Bring
General Walker s'Body From
Spanish Honduras.

s. S. Stewart Of Colorado Springs, Colo.
has a novel idea for Worlds Fair ex-
hibit. He wishes to go to Spanish Hon
duras. exhume the body OF the famous
General Walker and bring it to st. Louis
to place among the relics of the Historical
Department of the Exposition. In a let
ter to the Fair, Mr.. Stewart states:
You are probably acquainted with the
facts Of the war in Nicaragua, carried on
by General Walker in 1888. Walker was
first sent by our Government with ships
and men in 1857. He was captured at Fort
Castillo on the San Juan River and re-
turned to the United States.
Then he organized a new expedition on
his own account, and with two vessels
and several hundred men he sailed from
Tampa for. Central America and there un-
derteok to make himself king or dictator
Of the country. He again met defeat and
was executed in Spanish Honduras and
buried there.
What want is to be authorized to 20
there and bring his remains to the Fair,
also to get heavy cast-iron coffin that
General Walker had taken with him to
tie: He took a different coffin on each ex-
petition and am acquainted with the To-
cation Of both at this time.
Il could procure the remains easily. but
would prefer to go to the capital and get
permission, also papers with the Govern
ment stamp showing the genuineness of
t the remains This would constitute an in
to the National Museum at Washington
after the Exposition is over.
There is a book, now out of print,
publishing a history Of these expeditions
to Central America. In case this Is out
OF your line, will you please turn my let
ter over to some historical society that
would be interested?"
Several other suggestions for odd ex-
hibits have been received. among them
one from Miss Lillian Holmes of Kinks
Vile. Mo. She wishes to have exhibited
a mounted redbird which was "a years
old at the time OF its death.
have seen In natural histories" she
writes. that redbirds were never known
to live over twenty years. and thought,
accordingly. that this redbird would make
good specimen to exhibit because Of its

eral hundred than that country had at the
Chicago Exposition. Among the exhibit
ors are the most representative artists,
manufacturers. merchants and organiza-
tons Of the French Republic.
The first information concerning the
completed figures of the French exhibit
were received in st. Louis yesterday. They
come from a source considered absolutely
reliable. The information was received in
the first instance from Michel Lagrave.
Commissioner General of France to the
Worlds Fair.
1t was learned that in addition to the
100000 francs appropriated by the French
Government. the city of Paris has appro-
priated $1,000 francs, and the Chamber of
Paris 5000 francs, for the French pavil-
ion. Paris and the Chamber of Commerce
viii have special apartments furnished for
their benefit in the pavilion.

NEW YORK, Oct. 6.-Today's stock
market lay practically in lethargy pend
ing the action Of the United States Steel
directors on the common stock dividend.
This action had not been decided up to
the close of the market, and the repress-
i've influence of the suspense, according
ly, was not removed. Dealings were the
smallest for many weeks, and small as
they were a large proportion of the whole
was absorbed by the United States Steel
securities, which were the only stocks in
which the uncertainty over the dividend
action was made the occasion for spec
ulatiYe price movements to any extent.
This is largely due to the fact that the
financial world has been in great doubt
over what the effect would be of the
dividend action. Whether the passing or
reduction of the dividend could result in
any further fall in the price of the COM
pany'S securities has been much question:
ed. The conservation of a surplus, it is
now believed, would have held the mar
ket price of the securities better than
the distribution of dividends on the COM
mon stock, which has proved utterly UNI.
availing to hold the market. The sharp
advance in the preferred stock this after
noon of more than two points while the
common stock was but slightly affected
was due to the party that was in doubt
over the declaration of the dividend, and
it was believed that the additional secur-
ity for the preferred by the retention OF
In higher prices. Outside of the steel
stocks the market was exceedingly mar
row and the movements Insignificant.
Only handful of stocks got as much as
a point away from last night, and ex-
IRENE movements were not maintained
in any place. The early movement was
downwards, and London assisted in this
tendency to some extent on account of
the unsettled opinion in that market from
the British cabinet changes. Some of the
selling was reported to be for Western
account. and may have been associated
with the reports of deterioration in the
wheat yield in one or two of the West
ern states, which also caused firm tone
in the wheat market. The governments
weekly report on corn was considered
highly satisfactory but the report on cot
ton was felt to leave a good deal to be
ton at any point and the market recov-
cred in sympathy with the late upward
movement in United States Steel pre-
ferred. The full recovery was not held
but the closing was steady and showed
very slight net changes as a rule The
ing softer. and apprehension of any real
stringency has been pretty well disspat-
ed. The large movement of gold towards
London and the cessation of the Berlin
demands for gold seem to assure the
prospects for that center. The lateness
count for the long postponement of the
Western demand for currency and the be-
lief is gaining force that the deposit OF
government funds with Western banks
has supplied a sufficient proportion of
the usual demand to relax the pressure
