TO THE PUBLIC TODAY

Knoxville, Tenn, September 11.-Though
Chilhowee park, the home of the Appa-
lachian exposition, was closed to the pub
ic Sunday, 1000 men and scores of teams
were busily engaged during the entire
day and far into the night putting the
finishing touches on the big exhibition
which opens promptly at noon tomor-
row. Everything will be complete and
~eady for the public's inspection when
llesident William j. Oliver presses the
button and officially opens the exposi-
tion. The main building. woman's build
ing, agricultural building, mineral and
forestry buildings, live stock buildings
and colored building are filled with ex-

be rendered Governor Patterson and staff
on the exposition grounds, the formal ex-
ercises will open with addresses by Presi-
dent William ]. Oliver of the exposition,
Hon. B. G. Heskell, mayor of Knox

PANAMA WILL HAVE
BIG EXPOSITION

Washington, September 11.-(Special.)-
While New Orleans and San Francisco
are fighting desperately for the Panama
canal exposition in 1915, Panama itself
is going ahead with an exposition which
will mark the completion of the great
work of joining the Atlantic and Pa
cilc
For her exposition Panama will have
one supreme exhibit which no other city
can have. 1t is the canal itself. The
worlds fair will be situated on a beau
tiful plain three miles northeast of the
city of Panama. This plain runs down
to the sea beach. The feature already
provided for is Panama Vieja" or old
Panama. the city destroyed by the Pirate
Morgan. The picturesque of the ancient
city, its walls and stowers and arches
are in as good condition today as
they were after Morgan finished his work
400 years ago. The space within the walls
of the old city will be transformed into
veritable Coney Island.
The object of the fair Is to entertain
and instruct the many thousands of visit
ors who will come from all parts of the
civilized globe and more important still,
to provide permanent mart that will
mean a new era in the business life of
South America. The fair buildings will
be of substantial construction, with
view to their ultimate use for business
purposes. 1t is planned to have in them
everything that a buyer could see If
he took trip to the United States or
Europe. thus reducing the cost to mer-
chants and permitting larger purchase.
Everything that experience can suggest
for the entertainment of visitors will be
provided, and an opportunity will be af-
forded for the world to learn the vast
resources of Panama, much of which
remains to be developed. There are thou
sands of acres of rich virgin soil that,
under the direction of skilled American
or European farmers, will yield fortunes.
Two crops of staples are grown each sea-
son. There are vast belts of timber
and gold mines that have not been prop
erly worked in other words Panama
remains to be discovered in an indus
trial way, and visitors to the Panama
worlds fair will be afforded every op-
portunity to see what the country Is
like.

Various spectacular attractions, such as
balloon ascensions. band concerts, demon
strations with dirigible balloons, horse
racing, etc, will make the first after
noon.
An official reception rendered Governor
Patterson and staff will be an event of
the late afternoon and at night the
largest exhibition of fireworks ever con-
tracted for In the south will be given.
The Appalachian exposition planned
when the conservation movement first
gained prominence, is designed to show
to the world the resources of the Appa-
lachian states, all of which are deeply in
terested in the proposed Appalachian for
est reserve bill now before Congress.
President Taft and ex-President Roose-
welt will visit the exposition, during its
one months season, and each is expect
ed to speak along conservation lines.
The exhibitions come almost exclusively
from the Appalachian states, with the
exception of the representative exhibit in
the main building by the United States
government.
This group of states is rich in woods
and minerals and in products of the farm
and the exhibits fully prove the asser-
ton. The exposition is a most credit
able display and will prove a pleasing
surprise to scores of thousands who are
expected to be attracted within its gates
President Oliver said tonight:
when the starter raises the flag at
the races on Monday afternoon the south
will not only see the greatest exposi-
ton ever shown, but the greatest racing
meet and horse show ever held in the
south will be under way"

BULLION is IN TRANSIT

Seattle, Wash, September 11.-Gold
bullion valued at s57,5oo, part of con-
signment of $4,000 from the washington
Alaska Bank of Fairbanks, to the Dex-
ter Horton National bank of Seattle, on
the steamship Humbolt. was stolen In
transit. Lead was substituted In the
strong box that contained 1t.
Discovery of the theft was announced
today. The stolen gold weighed $50
pounds When 1t left Fairbanks on a.
Yukon river steamer for Dawson and
White Horse, the gold was contained in
three wooden boxes and was in the care
of the Alaska-Pacific Express company.
When the boxes were opened by the
Canadian customs officers at Dawson the
golden bars were found to be as stated
In the express company's papers.
The boxes were opened again at the
United States assay office in Seattle Fri
day noon and the theft was discovered.
One contained pigs of lead instead of
gold. The seals of the boxes were intact
when they reached the assay office and
1t was evident that the robbery had been
committed on board the ship. The gold
was insured against loss by the express
company. The boxes were received at

POLITICAL STRUGGLE IN NEW
YORK GROWING IN INTENSITY

New York, September 11.-With the
return of Theodore Roosevelt from his
western trip the struggle between the
old guard and the progressfves for
control of the republican state con-
vention looms larger upon the political
horizon.
Both sides have been conducting a
quiet but effective campaign to cap
ture delegates during the colonefs
absence and the result of Tuesday s
primaries in New York. Buffalo and
Rochester will, in large measure, de-
terrnine whether the selection by the
state committee of Vice President
Sherman as temporary chairman shall
be ratified or rejected in favor of
Colonel Roosevelt.

NINE MEN CRUSHED TO DFSsiH
BY FALL OF ROCK NEAd1sylU TUNNEL

New York, September 11.-At least nine
laborers were killed outright today and
10 others injured, one of them critically
and all of them seriously, in the collapse
of an overhanging shoulder of rock from
above the western mouth of the old Erie
tunnel under Bergen Hill, connecting the
Erie tunnel in Jersey with its westward
divisions.
The collapse was directly beneath the
edge of the Hudson boulevard. which at
that point runs along the inner line OF
Bergen Hill, and though the actual slip
was out of sight of the holiday crowds,
thousands lined the boulevard all after

the assay office Thursday morning and
remained there until agents of the con-
signee arrived there next day to check up
the ingots. 1t was supposed that the
gold was stolen on the Yukon steamer
between Dawson and White Horse or on
the steamer Humboldt between Skagway
and Seattle. The gold was in the pur-
ser's cabin. 1t is not customary on gold
shipments to take elaborate precautions
against robbery.
Detectives working on the case say
they have no clue. The robbery was

Yukon steamer that was to convey 1t to
White Horse.

room, got 1t back to Fairbanks and Sec

GREAT THRONGS AT
AVIATION MEET

BOSTON. September ia quarter OF
million people have passed through tne
turnstiies of tire Harvard aviation heid
at Atlantic City during the past week.
The management has decided to extend
the meet two days and bring 1t to a
close Thursday night instead of Tues
day.
Another incentive to the extension was
the late offer of two cups for features
not on the regular programme, one from
the city of Boston and another from
John Hays Hammond of Beverly. These
will be offered for the best marks In
dropping bombs on a battleship from an
elevation of 1900 feet or greater. An
other feature of the special days will
be pursuit races.
From the brilliant work Of Claude Gra-
hame- White during the first seven days
of the meet it was figured that the Eng
lishman was in a fair way to take about
all the money prizes, but yesterday Brook
ms and Johnstone the Wright aviators,
and Glenn H. Curtiss got into the game
and changed things a bit White had
secured enough points In the speed event
to give him first money, $1,000, but be-
yond this he cannot be said to have any
other prize actually within his grasp.
White is the only fier thus far to cover
the course to Boston light for the Globe
$4,000 prize, but Glenn H. Curtiss Is not
disposed to let the Englishman carry
off the purse without contest and prob
ably will try for this prize tomorrow.

SOUTH CAROLINA'S
SECOND PRIMARY

Columbia, s. c., September 11.-South
Carolina democrats on Tuesday will
make their final choice for governor. ad-
jutant general, railroad commissioner and
congressman in two districts. The voting
will constitute the second primary, made
ne ecessary when there are more than two
candidates for one office and no one
of them receives a majority Of the vote
cast.
Chief interest In this second primary
ccnters in the contest for governor. which
lis between G. C. Featherstone of Laurens
and 0ole L. Blease of New Berry. Mr..
F'eatherstone entered the campaign as
the champion of the statewide prohibi-
tionists while Mr.. Blease ran on a local
option platform Since T. G. Mcleod,
another local option candidate. was elm
mated in the first primary, it has been
maintained by leading newspapers OF the
local option persuasion that the issue is
no longer one of measures but question
of personal fitness as between Mr.. Feath-
erstone and Mr.. Blease. Supporting this
view several of the prohibition leaders
of the state have come out with admis-
sions that the statewide prohibition cause
was practically defeated in the first pri-
mary.
