year, or will there be postponement
of year? Secretary Conway, who
recently visited st. Louis for the pur-
pose of seeing for himself what is being
done there, declares his belief that the
exposition will be ready for the opening
on time and that there need oe no de-
lay of a year. Il was pleased and sur
prised." said Mr.. Conway, ION visiting
the exposition grounds last week to find
how great had been the progress made
in construction. / had heard that there
was nothing doing and went expecting
to find that little had been done. But
l found the big buildings all well under
way and some of them completed. The
system of making buildings hese days
is different from what 1t once was.
Nearly all the work is done by Inachin-
cry. One man with the modern appli-
ances is equivalent to half a dozen un-
der the old way. The work is largely
done by steam or electric power. and
buildings go up with amazing rapidly.
I found that the work had SO far pro-
crossed that a great deal of sodding
is being done and the planting of trees
and identifying the grounds in a gem
eral way. They are now very much
farther along with their prepare tons
than were the Chicago fair managers
at corresponding date before their
opening. l see no reason TO believe that
the fair will be postponed. OF course
one could hear great deal of talk
about postponement on the outside and
among the travelling men and others
who were not in close touch with the
management; but there was no feeling
of the kind where the work is being
actually directed to a conclusion" Mr.
Shepherd, of the Iowa commission, whfi
is overseeing the construction of the
Iowa building and has visited the fair
number of times, is not quite so con-
fident and on his last return from ST.
Louis expressed fears that the EXPOSE
ton would not be ready for the opening.
next spring. The work OIL the Iowfl
building is nearly completed and Iowa
will have a bilding well out of the way
before any of the other states. Iowa
will be quite ready for the exposition

pRIEsT TO GOVERN.
Davenport Mayor May Turn City A.
fairs Over to Catholics.


Davenport. Aug. Tt popular pre-
diction is borne out by the action of
Mayor Becker this city will soon enjoy
the novelty of being governed by a
priest.
In the light of the general clamor,
famed and fostered by Father Ggling-
er, for sweeping reforms regarding the
control Of the resorts OF the city, 1t is
said to be the intention OF the mayor
to temporarily step out of his chair of
office and allow Father Giglinger to be
the acting mayor
If this should come to pass 1t Is GER
tain that there would be doings of an
extremely strenuous nature In Daven-
port forthwith. Father Giglinger is the
sworn foe Of the gamblers and dive
keepers.
Recent secret conferences the man Of
the cloth has had with the mayor have
tended the strengthen the popular be-
lief that he is soon to assume the APP
pointrnent as substitute mayor.
Mayor Becker has promised that
something big will happen this week.
Nothing has occurred so far that Is out
of the ordinary and now the populace is
anxiously awaiting the next move. firm
in the belief that it will be the evacua-
tion of his seat by the mayor in favor
of the priest.

lines of blanks. Next Tuesday, it is
said, similar cut will go into effect at
the old Bendle factory in South Musca-
tine and that the employees of that con-
Germ Will duplicate the action of the
men yesterday at the first named plant.
Both sides deny that strike has taken
place in the South Muscatine concern,
yet each admits that no work is being
done and the chief cause for 1T is the
cut. Officials Of the button factory
say the factory may close for an indeti-

Wednesday afternoon Foreman +. o.
Boston, Jr, of the South Muscatine
Button Co., notified the men that a cut
of one cent per gross would go into ef-
feet when each man weighed up his
blanks. Every man in the works
weighed up at the same time and w.
w. Richardson, one OF the owners of the
plant, having been given hint that a
walk-out might take place, told the
men they would be paid for that day S
work at the old price but that the cut
would go into effect after the present
supply of shells was exhausted.
Thursday morning at II o'clock the
men held a conference and decided they
would not work under the lower rate.
AT noon each man left his post and did
not return in the afternoon. Everything
IS quiet around the plant. There is no
disturbance Of any kind.
1t is said the proprietors Of the fac
tory say there is no money in the bust
