CITY OF Conventions
OVER HUNDRED GATHERINGS
HELD IN CHICAGO DURING YEAR
Nearly Every Industry and Profession
Represented in the Meetinss-in.
dueements That Other
Places Lack.

Chtcago.-Chicago this year Is the
convention city of the world. One
hundred and seven organizations, re.
presenting almost every industry and
profession In the United States. have
met here during the last few months,
bringing. 1t is estimated. almost $4,000
visitors. who filed the hotels to over
flowing and made the bonifaces many
thousands Of dollars richer. Almost
every business and profession was re.
presented. from undertakers and
tombstone cutters to butcher and sur
geons.
There was hardly hotel CT
any pretensiOns that did not have its
lobby filled with rbboned and badge.
decorated delegates to at least half
dozen conventions. league meetings or
association gatherings.
While the majority Of the conven-
tons We're held in the hotels at which
the delegates stopped. others met in
halls and churches in different parts
of the city.
Credit for making Chicago the con.
vention city must be given to the
Chicago Commercial association,
which carried on a vigorous campaign
for several. Every organization in the
country that meets in convention was
communicated with.
All the advantages of the city were
laid before them. The association
exerted every influence to secure low
rates from the railroads and succeed
ed in securing reduced fares for all the
conventions. coming from east, west
and south.
Most of the conventions were held
during July, August and September.
During those months every one of the
hotels had a convention ION" each
week. Fer October there were also
many scheduled. while several are yet
to be held in November.
To educational societies and or.
CARNATIONS Chicago offers advantages
equaled by no other city in the west
The public library, Art institute and
Field museum offer opportunities for
research only equaled by the Smith.
sonian museum and Congressional Ii.
brary at Washington.
Another almost natural advantage.
Chicago possesses. which Is the most
important feature of a convention city,
is its vast capacity to house and feed
thousands Of visitors at q moments
notice.
Although every one Of the down.
town hotels be filled there are scores
Of high-class hotels throughout the
city that can with case handle the
overflow.
When these are crowded there re-
mains the many apartment houses
that accommodate transients, and IL
these ever become congested the
thousands Of boarding and rooming
houses can always find room for un-
told numbers.
Among the most notable Of the con.
yentions held were those Of the Ma.
tional Dressmakers' association. the
League of American Municipalities,
National Purity league, National On.
dertakers' association, International
Railway Blacksmiths' association. the
National Theosophists' society, post.
masters Of the fourth class, American
Newsdealers' association, National
Spiritualists' association. the Newton
society. National Travelling Engineers
association besides the various or
CARNATIONS and declarations of wo-
mems clubs.

PLAN FIELD DAY
IN CHICAGO NEXT MONTH.
Special pispatch to The Star.

special Dispatch to the star.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, August 23.-In connection
with the laying of the county building cor
ner stone next month it is planned to nave
field day for republican presidential as
pirants and possibilities, to give them a Dig
dollar dinner" and to attract 1900 or 5,OOo
Illinois republicans to the festivities-in an
effort to counterfeit the effects of the Bryan
visit to Chicago. The Hamilton Club Is
likely to have charge of the speaking ar
rangements and will plan the presidential
banquet as an adjunct to the laying OF the
corner stone.
Mr.. Bryan's visit early in September has
caused some of the republicans to wonder
what effect, if any, it will have on the re-
publican county and state tickets. and they
have decided it would be good policy to 90
something to counterfeit it.
The first proposition was to bring Presi-
dent Roosevelt to the cornerstone cere-
monies. and two efforts were made to get
him. both being futile. The President re-
piled that he did not propose to take part
in politics to the extent of making speeches.
this fall and found it impossible to reach
Chicago even for non-pOlitical purposes.
AS the next best thing it was proposed
to gather in many presidential possibili-
ties could be persuaded to accept an IN
vitation. Speaker Cannon. Senator BeV-
eridge, Secretary Taft, Secretary Shaw and
Vice President Fairbanks are among the
speakers it is hoped to secure. Plans are
to be made for the dinner on the night OF
September %.

DANNY WHALEN'S LOSS.
Declares the Doctors Have Sold His
Head to the Government.

Danny Whalen, known to nearly all Of
the police of the city, walked into police
headquarters this morning with trou-
bled look on his face and asked for MAJ
Sylvester or Capt. Boardman.
you see. the doctors have sold my head
t. the United States government. and
don't like it, and 1 want to get it back,
he declared
The police department has recovered
some strange articles in the course of the
past fifty years. but here was brand
new article to be looked after. Detective
Flatfer and Sam Burrows, in charge of
the front Office at headquarters, held a
consultation and finally concluded that
Sanitary Officer SrOufe would be the best
man to recover the head, and he was
called in.
The doctors have had it from me-"
Danny continued. They sent me over TO
ST. Elizabeth's, and you know that is no
place for a sensible manlike myself
The detectives agreed that the asylum
was not place for sensible people, and
the conversation Jagged for a time.
Did you know Father McGuire?" asked
Danny of Detective Father
NO; which is her"
He's down there at POtter's Field Hos
pital yet" replied Danny.
You know that planet is still over
there" he continued.
What planet?"
why, that electrlcal planet at inc emu
of the Long bridge, that we draw our
electricity from. You know there is no
such thing as wireless >telegraphy. I. Is
simply spiritual things coming in contact
with live wires or dead wires. You know
where they got the wireless telegraphy,
don't you? From me. I am the only sci
euce man."
Yes, you have been in the electricity
business for some time" commented the
detective.
THE trouble is that they are taking my
songs and selling them and / don't get
anything out of them"
The sanitary officer thought he could
fix UP the lost-head business, and Danny
was detained. He will be examined by
the police surgeons to determine whether
he is sane.

GEN. HUMPHREYS TO REPLY.
Will Onswer Structures on His De-
partment


1t is expected that Quartermaster Cen
eral Humphreys will make an official re-
ply to the structures against the system
of GENERALIZATION" of the quartermaster's
department made by Brig. Gen. w.
H. Carter, commanding the depart
ment of the lakes, in his annual re-
port to the War Department. The quar-
termaster general says 1t would be impos-
sible to give department commanders free
rein in the matter of expenditures of quar-
termaster's supplies because the Revised
Statutes prevent it and expressly say that
certain expenditures must be made only
upon the approval of the Secretary of War.
Another feature which Gen. Humphreys
mentions is that If there was free hand
given to department commanders there
would be way of equaliZing the appro-
priations and one department might ex-
pend the entire appropriation for something
that was needed perhaps, but which would
leave the other departments without any
funds for similar purposes. The regula-
tons have been recently changed so that
department commanders are authorized to
make expenditures up to $500 for emer-
gency repairs at army posts. Department
commanders are also authorized to make
expenditures of $500 on separate buildings
from the regular allotments for repairs
without authorization by the Secretary of
War. From depots department command
ers are authorized to draw such supplies
as may be in stock and they are further
authorized to purchase supplies that are
not in the depots to the amount of $780,

FIGHTING THE FOG.
Arnold Lupton Plans for an Electric
London.

Latest among the many projects for rid
ding London of Its fogs is the scheme of
Mr.. Arnold Lupton. member Of parlia-
ment for one of the Lincolnshire districts.
1t is to supply London with electric energy
for lighting, heating and cooking. Mr.
Lupton was one of the men who took an
active part in Harvesting Niagara, which
is at present furnishing 10000 horsepower,
so that the scheme will hardly be consid-
cred so chimerical as though 1t came from
a man who had less experience in cleo
trical matters. The details of the plan are
supplied to the Department of, Commerce
and Labor by Consul General F. W. Ma
hin of Nottingham.
! Mr.. Lupton's plan contempIates the use
of electricity for power. lighting. heating
and cooking In London, and bringing the
electric energy from the coalfelds of the
Midlands, thus doing away with the smoke
producers in the metropolis. He estimates
that the smoke nuisance damages London
every year fully 100000. not to mention
