All the members of the committee,
j. A. flannel, j. u. Tourtellotte,
Calvin Cobb and Mrs. w. j. Reno,
were present and multitudes ofsug-
Rostions we're presented, from among
which the idea that was finally ao-
oepted was formulated

question II this viii DO permitted by
the city authorities.
II they will not allow the paving
and foundation cut through, the COM
mittee may determine to prepare n
water wheel upon Grove street Just
east OF Eighth, where Il would be
much less conspicuous than on
Eighth, In the midst of the display
Of fruits and grains.
One OF the largest water wheels In
the city is proposed TO be established,
II the idea be carried out. It will
be an especially graceful decoration
for the street. as an emblem OF the
early method of raising the water
from stream to later the thirsty
soil that II might bear tho fruit and
grasses ON display about the old
wheel.
II Is proposed to have a grand
stand placed In the middle OF Eighth
street, just south Of Main, with the
grand arch of Egyptian style of ar.
ohitecture, u half block away. Il Is
planned to build the columns Of corn
stalks with the caps composed OF the
ears and tassols, making Il symbol
in itself of the work that Is being
done BY Irrigation In the Egypt Of
America.
Long buildings will be constructed
down the center OF the street, with
water proof roofs, to provide against
the possibility of rain, Of sufficient
width to permit people to remain un.
der the roofs while inspecting the ta-
bles of fruits and grains and grasses
piled up there. These buildings will
likely be nearly a half block in
length each, while smaller structures
will be placed cross-wise between the
longer buildings at the street inter.

New York, Sept. 4--Excited specll,

although on somewhat diminished
scale of activity from that Of last
week. The tone of the market became
feverish in the course Of the day.
This principally was due to the con-
tending effects of speculation furore

the money market on the other. Prices

WHEAT WASSTRONC
At the Opening But the Close Was
Weak as Result of Good Weather
and Heavy Selling.

Chicago, Sept WHEAT The
Market was strong in sympathy with
the advance at Liverpool, which was
based on the quality Of the Russian
wheat rendered for delivery Of Sep,
TENDER contracts. Lighter shipments
than were expected from ports OF
Russia and on the Danube were made
during the Last week and added to the
bullish feeling al the outset. Later
came the reports that the northwest
ern market weakened because of the
continued good weather and the prob.
able increase in the spring wheat
movement. This caused change in
the sentiment in the local exchange.
Cash houses became active sellers and
this led to free selling by the longs.
The result was a steady decline dur
ing the remainder of the session. The
close was weak, December down "a
