Weinstein had told the truth from the appearance or the many great loads of gilded and deco rated paraphernalia being hauled to the show grounds, the throngs of strangers in the city, and the pres ence here of an entire special train of cars, all of which proclaimed the arrival of Manager Gus Meyers and his Great Monarch shows.
