exposition commission will meet tomor-
row morning when the former will turn
over remaining exhibits and effects to
those In charge Of Utahs display at
Portland this summer.
Considerable other business win also
be transacted by the new commission
and In all probability a discussion will
follow as to whether or not Utah will
erect her own building within the fair
grounds, or rent space for her exhibit
n the main building. No definite ao-
tlon, however, Is anticipated as II Is on
the cards that the members OF the COM
mission, or at least a quorum, will leave
SAT- Lake for Portland some time next
week. They argue that 1t viii be bet

Gliding one way or the other
Just when they VIII 80 has not at this
time been decided upon.
considerable satisfaction is being ex-
pressed In all quarters over the ap-
pointment OF Spencer Clawson az head
OF AFFAIRS as announced In yesterday
atternooS News" II transpres that
Mr, Clawson strenuously objected to
bearing the title OF director general,
saving that It sounded too much like
mat OF dictator In a South American
republic In Difference to his wishes he
was appointed general manager OF tho
utah Lewis & Clark exposition COM
mission His salary was placed at s225
a month.
Among the business transacted yes
terday afternoon was the issuing OF A.
requlsition for 5000. This will be ex-
pended In transportation charges on ex.
hibits to Portland, collecting displays
and incidental expenses.
During yesterday afternoons session
A. G. Nelson. superintendent OF public
instruction, appeared before the COM
mission and made plea for a liberal
appropriation so that Utah schools and
thelr work could be represented in
manner commensurate with importance
Of the state. He stated to the members
OF the commission that on Wednesday
the state board OF education had at It's
meeting adopted a resolution declaring,
mat the board would not undertake To
ne responsible fer an educational exhlb-
II at the Portland exposition on an APP
preparation OF less than $1,000. He az
frmed that the members OF the board
felt that AT least 81 900 or Sc 900 could
be judlclously expended on the display
10 advantage, but It could make O dis
play In a measure satisfactory upon
an appropriation Of 81. 900. which would
be essentially the minimum
The matter was taken under consld-
Grafton and will be brought up again
on Monday when the commission will
give Mr. Nelson It's answer.

Salt Laker Who Applies TO b;
Declared a Bankrupt Tells
Strange Story
DENVER BROKER HIT HIM HARD.
lnterest on Loan Of Forty Dollars
Reaches sos % Cents in Single
Year Other Bankruptcy Cases

In the II, s. federal court this morn
Ing Charles b, Luckey, a telephone
operator OF Salt Lake, filed petition
in bankruptcy with liabilities of only
1876 and assets Of s25. The petition
makes a record for the minimum size
OF the finances involved. One item,
however Is remarkable. 1t is claim
OF X. p. Blackburn, a loan merchant
Of Denver, for 1883 due him on loan
OF $40, made TO Luckey year ago,
on which Luckey paid $50 soon after
making tho loan In a single year,
then, according to Blackhurn's way OF
figuring interest, $50 has practically
quadrupled itself, The interest figures
down to almost 20 per cent per month,
which 1t Is thought, Is the explanation
of the debtors seeking relief In the
federal court.

TWO Pennsylvania REPORTERS,

Representatives Adams and Morrell OF
Philadelphia have achieved a great deal
of notorlety by attempting to carry out
reforms advocated by the president.
Adams would have a whipping post for
the District Of Columbia, and Morrell
would curb divorces, Neither will get
the bill through which he advocates,
There Is a strong sentiment against re-
establishing the whipping post, while
Morrell's divorce proposition would, II
carried out, work a great hardship upon
many deserving people by deprivlng
them of employment In the government
service, Many women who were mar
ried TO worthless husbands have pro-
cured divorces and are now supporting
themselves by working for the govern
ment 1t looks very much as II these
Pennsylvania reformers would fail to
get their Views on the statute books.
