Des Moines, Sept. 2.-Ofticials OF the
state fair are already reckoning 1t 10
be great success. The cost OF the
fair has already been received by the
treasurer. The attendance has been
good.
The stock judging and other regular
events are proceeding with regularly
and to the satisfaction OF the VISITORS
The race program has been eNceilehs
and all the special amusement ana mu'
sic features have been of high quality
An interesting feature in the STOCK
section is that a fine herd OF Holsteln
cattle has been entered from the In
dian school at Genoa, Neb., and is at
tracing attention.
The story sent out from here tha'
the fair buildings had been damaged
by storm is without foundation. No
damage was down and the general pro
gram was carried out.

10 that end. The impression IS tha'
the suit asking for a recelvershlp ana
attacking d. G.. Reid and others inter
ested in the Rock Island is a move
ment TO compel a settlement OF some
kind and that there is no real eXpecta
ton that a local court would, on inc
asking of a stockholder, throw inc
road into the hands Of receiver. Inc
application is to come before the cour'
some time this month and attorneys
on both sides are preparing the case
now. The claim is, in general, tha'
there has been such mismanasemen'
of the finances of the company tha'
rights OF stockholders have been III
inred and that it is necessary to nave
clearing up. Because OF TINS SUIT II
is supposed that all recent plans 1oi
reorganization have virtually failed.
