All Of Two Departments Have
Been Removed From the
Exposition.
GOOD RECORD is MADE.
Director Skiff Says That at No
Previous Fair Has There Been
Greater Progress Than
at st. Louis.

Nearly one-half of the total exhibits at
the Worlds Fair have already been
Skinned away. This estimate is taken from
q report from Director Of Exhibits skih to
President Francis, which will be trans
mitted Tuesday.
Mr.. Skiffs report gives the figures or
shipment percentages in every exhibit de-
partment OF the Worlds Fair. In two OF
the departments every exhibit has been re-
shipped. In all of them good progress
has been made Mr.. skin says that at no
previous exposition has such a record been
rlade in the reshipment of exhibits.
or course, greater progress has been
made in the work of packing and reship-
ping the domestic exhibits, but the per-
centage OF foreign exhibits that have
been removed from the buildings is not
small. OF the total domestic exhibits
more tnan IS per cent have been removed.
More than 3s per cent Of the foreign eS-
hibits have been reshipped.
OF the exhibits which remain in the
buildings, from Is to 80 per cent have been
packed and are ready for shipment.
The figures submitted in Mr.. skif's re-
port relative to the shipments sre given
below Win tne Respective eAHlDl- uepdil-
ments:

All Of the exhibits. foreign and domes-
tic, in the departments Of Anthropology
and Physical Culture. have been removed.
A surprising showing in the report is
that Of the removal of exhibits in the
Transportation Department. The exhib-
its in this building are all heavy. and it
was supposed that it would be one Of the
last to be cleared. On the contrary, the
greatest progress has been made here.
The Machinery building is the least ad-
vanced OF all tine Departments in the
work OF removing the contents. but this
may be accounted for on the score Of its
very ponderous exhibits. The Mines and
Metsllurgy Palace. which also has great
quantity Of heavy material to be removed,
is also comparatively backward in the
removal Of its exhibits.

MAY BE AN ACTRESS.
Police Following New Clew in Colo.
rado Springs Mys-
terry.

Colorado Springs. Colo, Dec. A-officers
now engaged in attempting to solve the
Mount Cutler murder mystery are quietly
working on what they claim to be the
best clew yet secured.
The new theory upon which they are
working is that the deceased was a mem
ber of one Of the theatrical troupes that
visited this city during the last two
months, and was put out of the way by
some member Of the company on account
of jealousy.
The police are now in telegraphic COM
munication with the managers of several
companies which were here between No.
vember I and December u to ascertain
If any of their members is missing.
Chief Reynolds has ascertained that one
young woman, believed to be Miss Lucille
Villiers, who was member of a theat-
rical company, was'released here and fur
nished with transportation to St. Louis
The description of the girl discharged
here is said to tally with that of the body
found on Mount Cutler.
