fair will be closed tomorrow to all but
holders of passes. Even to those the
buildings will be closed and except for
the pedestrians strolling through the
grounds there will be no life or ac-
t1V1ty. The only event of interest an

mole, and his wife and retinue, who

amounted to policies for 100000. The

ing taken by exhibitors themselves.

ceived letters from England, France
and Germany, stating that fine dis
plays of blooded draught horses from
those countries would be made here.s@

mented today by the arrival of about
thirty Indians. including some of the
most noted chieftains of the country.

hibits Skiff, Of the worlds fair, stat
ing that Russia will make an elabo-
rate exhibit. Russia before the war
had planned to be recognized at the
fair, but recently decided to abandon
its proposed exhibit The cabIegram
today caused surprise. The Russians
will take 10000 square feet in the
varied industries building and will
also be represented in liberal and fine
arts.

TALK OVER WORK
ON PANAMA CANAL
Hundreds of Jamaica Negroes Are EN-
ployed on the Undertaking.

WASHINGTON. D. c., May Pres
ident Roosevelt had an extended con-
ference today with Admiral Walker,
chairman of the isthmian canal COM
mission. They discussed the regu1a-
lions which are to be issued by the
president, governing the canal zone
and the operations of the commission
A definite decision regarding the scope
Of the regulations will probably be
reached in a few days.
Admiral Walker said, on leaving the
White house, that at present the labor
supply on the isthmus was ample for
the purpose of the commission Just
now between 700 and 800 men, prin-
cipally Jamaica negroes, are employed
on the canal. Immediately upon the
transfer of the property to the United
States, Admiral Walker telegraphed
authority to continue the work without
interruption.
Thus far it has not been decided by
the commission whether the work Of
construction shall be done by contract
or directly by the commission. In
either event the laborers now on the
isthmus probably will be given en-
plOyment. 1t is expected that when the
construction work is in full swing sew
eral thousand men will be employed.
The day laborers on the isthmus re-
ceive about SO cents a day, United
States currency. They are generally
good laborers.
Maj. William NJ. Black, of the corps
of engineers, u. S. A, who returned
recently from the isthmus after more
than a year spent there in inVeStf-
eating conditions, had a talk with the
president today. He will return to
Panama, leaving next Tuesday with
Gen. Davis, of the isthmian commits
sion. He expressed the belief that the
sanitary problem confronting the COM
mission was not a serious one.

Season Is Opened.

The river steamer st. Paul Of the
Diamond 10 Transportation company's
fleet arrived in st. Paul at O'Clock
yesterday morning, being the first

cargo and few passengers were car
ried by the steamer.

voyage at 8 o'clock last evening. Fifty
passengers from the Twin Cities were
aboard the vessel. The downward trip

Beginning May 20 the Quincy will be

REPUBLICANS DO NOT
DWELL IN HARMONY
Further Disturbances Agitate the Par
ty in West Virginia.

CHARLESTOWN, w. Va, May T.
At the Republican primaries today,
Grant P. Hall, running for secretary
of state, created a sensation by Secur-
ing the election books in the Fourth

RAILROAD NEWS
CHEAP TICKETS ARE
SOLD BY TWO LINES
Milwaukee and Northwestern
Place the So Rate In
Effect.

Although there will be no So one
way rate from st. Paul and Minneap-
oils to Chicago, the SO round trip rate
from Chicago to the Twin Cities will
be in force today, despite the injunc-
ton issued by Judge Tuley restraining
the Women's Catholic Order of For
esters from holding its convention at
Minneapolis.
Word was received yesterday from
the Milwaukee offices of the Wiscon-
sin Central that the one-way rate of
$2 would not become effective Cen
eral Passenger Agent Pond had an
nounced at the meeting of the Western
Passenger association that he would
reduce the east-bound rate to 81 if the
Milwaukee did not Withdraw its So
round-trip fare.
Milwaukee officials said that Mr..
Pond was bluffing and dared him to
place the low rate in effect 1t is said
that the order to Sell the 50 tickets at
st. Paul and Minneapolis was about to
be issued when a compromise was
reached. The Milwaukee agreed to
have the round-trip tickets limited to
May IL, Instead of May %, as was
originally planned.
While Mr.. Pond has withdrawn, or
rather has not placed in effect the So
one-Way fare, the passenger rate war
seems far from a settlement. ST. Paul
agents say that if the brokers secure
large supply of the return portion Of
the cheap tickets disastrous and de-
moralizing results are bound to follow.
Traffic Will Suffer.
I'VE will not see the brokers get all
the legitimate one-way traffic, even if
we are forced to cut rates to the bone"
said an official Of one of the lines yes
terday Rates are demoralized now
ana we might as well fight the battle
this month as later in the summer, for
the rate question must be settled"
Herman Brown, city ticket and
passenger agent for the Wisconsin
Central, said that he received word
yesterday that the Central would not
place in force a So one-way rate.
According to advices received from
Chicago the North Western and the
Milwaukee are the only lines that will
and return at the SO rate. The Bur-
lington announced yesterday that it
would not meet the cut. The Great
western, too, will take no action re-
garding the low rate,
At the Burlington Office It was said
that the regular fare of $11.50 will be
charged for tickets in Chicago today.
The Burlington says that it made a
proposition to the Women's Catholic
Order of Foresters to carry them to st.
Paul In special train at a $40 rate
for the round trip, if the delegates to
the convention numbered 100 or more.
The Burlington's proposition still
holds good, but as the Milwaukee has
cut the rate to So, there is very little
likelihood of the Burlington getting an
opportunity to sell 100 tickets at the
$40 tariff.
