ITS t5iNiilAI. : Al'l' Detailed Description nt the Di-slcn for tlio Nebraska Imposition llnllilinj ; . Nebraska's building at the World's Colum bian exoosltion will occupy a commanding position In the northwest part of the nark. It , is located a few hundred feet north and west of the raagnlllcent art building , and will bo surrounded by streets on three sldos. Across the street on the south side will bo ocated the South Dakota building , while the Minnesota building will be directly opposite on the cast. North Dakota will adjoin Ne braska nn tno north , while Kansas is still farther north. The Nebraska building is on ix piece of elevated ground und will bo a prominent inont object to all passengers on the incom ing ttalns on the Illinois Central railroad. Tbo architect had this fact in view when ho surmounted his builaing with a handsome dome , Using to a height of 100 toot from the ( round , The Nebraska building was designed by A. W , Woods , principal of mechanical diaw- inir In the Halsh Manual Training school at Lincoln and ono of the prominent architects of the Capital city. Architecturally speaking , the uoslgn may DO described as Romanesque , a style admirably adapted to a combination of tbo qualities of beauty , utility ana cheap ness. Its dimensions are 100 feet from north to south and 112 foot from east to wost. All four ilnos of tbo building will bo finished alike , except that the east and west sides will have a projected roof covering the veran da : . The main entrance to the building will bo on the east , through two large pair of double doors swinging outwards. Over the entrance is a small balcony of ornamental design , back of which are largo arched windows covering the full width of the entranco. In the gable over the east entrance the word "Nebraska" appears in largo review letters , while In the west gable the architect has placed the seal of tbo state in a prominent and commanding position. The entire structure is surmounted by a xvell proportioned dorao , the holeht from the ground to the flagstaff being 100 feet. Entering from the east the visitor finds himself in u commodious vestibule from which ho passes into the main exhibit hall containing" agricultural display. This hall is practically rectangular in shape , its dimensions being lllxlOU. On the west side of the first lloor are three oftlco rooms , the largest 21xW ! and the others 17x19 each. Ono of the smaller olllce rooms will bo utilized as a postofllco and general intelligence ofllco. On the tlrst lloor is also au open reception room , 20x89. The second story Is reached by two broad stairways nine foot wldo. The largo room on the second lloor 43x100 feet in size will bo devoted to the art nnd educational display. On this floor is another lareo reception room , 28x30 , a gentlemen's smoking room 17x19 , an ofllco 21x21 , ladles' private parlora , etc. Particular attention has boon given to tbo question of light for Uio art and educational exhibits on tbo second lloor. In addition to the Jarco windows on all four sides , twenty- eight windows hnvo neon lot in from thereof roof , thus affording an ample amount of over head light. Tbo building will bo constructed of wood , glass and iron , all combined to produce an imposing , us well as a graceful , offoct. Thereof roof will probably bo of putontllax asohalto , painted whlto. Taken altogether , the Ne braska building will not suffer by compari son with those of other western states. The Nebraska commission fools that it has demo ns well as it possibly could with the limited amount of money given it , and the gen eral public will not bo disappointed In the structure which represents Nebraska at the bis fair.

The Inter Ocean will publish tomorrow a two-column expose of a scheme whereby the National Cordasro trust , through connivance with a number of leading alliance olllclals , is attempting to got control of not only all the present alliance stores In the country , but 4,000 additional ones the trust purposes starting. State- msnts are made by D. M. Fullwileri slate business agent for the alliance m Illinois , E. E. Wbipplit of tlio Wblpplo Hairow com- panv , St. Johns , Mich. , and William Dcering ic Sons , Chicago , that places certain promj neat alliance leaders in a compromising posi tion. Alone Wardall , member of the na tional executive committee of the Farmers Alliance and Industrial union , so says the Inter Ocean , is hired by the National Union company , the aeonoy through which the cordage trust is operating , and also that ho admitted to E. E. Whipplo that hr thought the National Cordage company was behind hind or largely interested in the Na tional union , as bo ( Wardall ) know that Mr. Watcrbury , tbo.

This Juno meeting referred to was a secret one , the National Union company had called to Now Yorn all the state alliance business agents It had Induced to go into the ohenio nnd the company paid all expenses.

It also Is staled that Mr. Whlpple has a letter from Mr. Waterbury , president of the National Cordage company , stating that they wcro largely interested In the Union company and highly recommending it. The part of the schema that has appealed so powerfully to the alliance agents is tlio commission of ono-half of 1 per cent allowed to each state agent for the goods sold in his territory , ft Is claimed that the National Union company is preparing to capture the St. Louis conference on the 2.2nd and got an endorsement. This will DO strongly opposed by many alliance men and some of the stiong est pupcrs in the organization , whom the National Union could not control.
