Gradually the railroads of all sections of
fbo United States are acknowledging the
IVvinsmlRnlsslppl and International Exposition
ind granting rates favorable to It. Passenger
rates have not yet been agreed upon , but It
Is the opinion of the giticral passenger
agents of this city that all railroads will
grant n one-faro rate for the round trip to
Omaha from Juno 1 to November next yoar.
Freight rates on mcst lilies have already
been dnclared. These rates for the trans-
portatlon of gojds to be cxnlblted at the ex
position are uniformly the same rates that
were granted to the World's fair at Chicago.
They have been agreed upon by the rallrcado
In various parts of Iho country , and an
nounced after meetings of lines composing
various traffic associations. All lines In thle
fcctlon of the country agreed to tbo one-fore

Visitors to the buildings on the Exposition
grounds are running considerable rink lei
wandering carelessly through the structures
upon which work Is bain ? done on the upper
stories or the roof. Yesterday a stranger was
walking under one of the galleries In the
Liberal Arls building when a heavy piece of
timber was accidentally dropped down. The
beam missed lite head by only a few Inches.
If ho had been Htruck he would have been
Instantly killed. The warning has been suf
ficient and In the future no one who has no
business there will be allowed to go through
the structure until It la completed. In this
building also one of the , workmen , Andrew
Wyman , y cat onlay sustained a painful but
not not serious injury. In lifting a heavy
pleco of timber ho let It drop upon his
thumb. The member was crushed , but It Js
believed that amputation is not necessary.
The wound was sufficient to Incapacitate the
man from work.
The Liberal Aria building , although It was
begun late , promises1 to bo sooner completed
than other buildings which were begun
earlier. The roof trusses have all lcen com
pleted ami the workmen who have been em
ployed < KU them were discharged yesterday
afternoon. The first of the pieces will bo
hoisted today. As-soon as several are In
place the work of putting on the roofing
will bo begun.
The Manufacliires building Is likely to bo
completed In a short tlmo now. Almost all
the staff is on , even to the ornamentations.
The translucent skylight Is almost finished.
Yesterday the Ihthcrs completed their work
on the Interior and this mornlag the
plastering will bo finished. Next to this
structure the Administration arch Is nearest
completion. Thcro is still some outside staff
to bo put on thla building , but the workmen
nro placing the ornamental pieces In the In
terior.
The Mines and Mining building Is also
uuuui nuuy jur us wane coat , ootn inside
nnd outEldo. The lathing wan begun this
morning , and following on the heels of this
the stiff Is being put In place. On the Inside
enough lathing has been put on to allow
the plasterers to got to work. The roof on
this structure Is about completed , the flnnl
work "being done on the skylight.
A number of roof girders have been put In
place on the Machinery building and the
roofing Is being commenced , The same Is
the case in the Agricultural building. On
the former also the stiff contractors have
commenced to put In place the staff.
The walls of the Government building will
Boon bo commenced. The piling Is about
completed , and the wall girders are being
erected. All the timber for this structure ,
some fifteen carloads , has arrived In the city
and eight of them are being unloaded on
the grounds.

All Indications point toward the most ei-

In his letter ho toys that hols meeting with

Within the next day or two SuperlntosOent
eareo ot the public schools will seed out
several hundred circular letters to the prln-
Ipal educators of the tratismlsslFfitppl slates
presenting the Idea of holding an cduca-
lonal congress In connection with the expo-
sltlon and asking their co-opcratloni In the
enterprise. The circular Is United by the
executive commlttco that was appointed
some days ago and 'briefly outlines the plan
so far eta U has been formulated.
It contends that this eeems to be a great
opportunity for the tens of thousands 'of
: eachers who live In theeMtca w.cst of the
Mississippi ixnd wl h to attend the cxpcel-
tlon. Many of them are unable to attend
the meetings of the National Educational
association and the proposed pla would
give them the same benefits that they
would enjoy by that attendance , together
with the opportunHr to see the exposi
tion.
tion.The general plan of the program Is brlclly
outlined. It will bo ssmewhat similar to
ilioso followed by the National Educational
association and the general meetings will bo
addressed by the best educational speakers.
Section meetings are Included for the purpose
of pursuing particular lines ot educational
work and these wilt be addressed by experts
in that particular line of work.
It Is suggested that tbe congress Is not In
any way antagonistic to tnc Xntlonnl Educa
tional association , and some Information Is
afforded In icgard to the o tcrtiltnent ( f the
visitors and the very low railroad rates that
will be secured. A paragraph Is also devoted
to the gefornl scope of the exposition' and It
U suggested thht the latter part of June
would probably be a satisfactory date for the
congress. These addressed nro requested to
transmit their views on the subject to the
committee , which consists of Oeorgo E. Mae-
Lean , chancellor University of Nebraska ;
Joseph 'E. Hlsey , superintendent of schools ,

The Transmleslsslppl and International
Exposition seems to have taken a flrmor
hold on the business men of St. Louis than
any exposition In recent years. The interest
'shown by the merchants and the manufac
turers there Is all the more noteworthy because -
cause of their non-participation In the Ten
nessee centennial and their recent labors for
their own St. Louis exposition.
The committee of merchants and manu
facturers appointed at the recent open meetIng -
Ing called by the St. Louis manufacturers
to provide for St. .Louts exhibits at the expo
sition held Its first business me'etlnpr in St.
Louis on Tuesday cvenljig. One of the first
things done was to chaigo the name of the
new organization to that of the St. Louis
commission for the TransmtsslESlppl 'Expo '
sition at Omiha. This change was ( sug
gested by Chairman C. H. Sampson and
adopted through a motion offered by L. I ) ,
Klngsland. The suggestion of the election
of a permanent secretary of the commission
resulted In the selection of F. II. Sterrltt.
A buslnesB-llkc discussion of the best plan
of proceeding resulted In the acceptance by
the commission of the Invitation from Pres
ident Wattles of the Omaha exposition to
visit Omaha and to Inform themselves of the
exact conditions there , In order that they
may bo able to give all necessary Informa
tion from their personal knowledge to St.
Louis exhibitors. The commission then ar
ranged for Its detailed work by providing
for ways and means and other Important
committees to bo appointed by the chairman.
Among those present were C. P. Walbrldge ,
W. H. Moore , L. O , Branch , H. R. Todd , E.

A distinguished diplomat passed through
Omaha yesterday afternoon. Ills natno Is
Torn Uoshl , and ho Is the Japanese minister
to the United States. Ho Is returning from
a trip to the capital of his native country ,
where ho went two months ago On a most
Important errand , and Is now en route to
Washington.
Torn Iloahl Is a ehort , heavy sot man , with
an uncommonly largo head. Ho wears
spectacles and Is of a rather distinguished
appearance. His complexion Is lighter than
i that of the average Japanese and the con
j tour of his head Is not unlike that of Pres
' ident Adolph Tillers of France , Toru Hoshl
Is accompanied by his secretary. The min
ister speaks .English fairly well , , though not
fluently.
In an Intervlsw with a representative of
The Dec Mr. Hoshl admitted that the object
of his mission to Japan was > to ascertain the
vlows of his government on the proposed an
nexation of Hawaii and to procure Instruc
tions from the mikado relative to the course
ho was expected to pursue In case the treaty
shall bo ratlflsd by congress. "Tho Impres
sion has gone out to the American press , "
said Mr. Hoshl , "that we propose to recall
the protest entered by Japan against the
acquisition of the Sandwich Islands by tht
United States government. This Is misleadIng -
Ing and untrue. Japan has always main
tained amicable relations with the United
States and it Is not our purpose now to take
any steps that would lead to a broach of inu-
ttial gooi will , but at the same tlmo Japan
will stand ( Irmly In the maintenance of KB
rights and privileges acquired under treaty
with the Hawaiian government. If the
United States decldcn to annex Haivall wo
hope to be able to enforce our demands for
Indemnity for the violation of treaty rights
I In the expulsion o. ' Japanese Immigrants
from the Island and tholr exclusion from the
rights acquired tinder our treaty , "
Concerning President McKlnley's message ,
and particularly as referring to the relations
of Japan and the United States in connection
with the proposad annexation of Hawaii ,
Mr. Hoshl declined to express any views be
yond rEltoratlng what he stated at the out
set , that there would bo no disposition on
the part of Japan to resist the acquisition
of Hawaii by the .United States , but that he
hoped to be able , through diplomatic nfgo-
tlatlons , to bring about n peaceable solution
of the matters In controversy.
Minister Hoshl said that clthough he had
taken this trip to Japan and back In two
months , ho was not foiling at all tired from
the effects of the- hurried journey. When
Interviewed on the Atlantic oxprcfB of the
Union Pacific-Northwestern railroads he ap
peared bright and entertaining. Ho will go
at once to Washington and resume the work
of looking after the interests of Japan In the
United States , where Tie left oft two months
ago.

The Women's Christian association held a
meeting yesterday to consider plans of
work for the coming year. The discussion
developed the fact that this association , the
oldest charltablU organization save one in
the city. Is still conducting Its work uoori
lilies laid dci-vm at Its Inception fourteen
years ago , namely the care of destitute
children. Thcae two classes have become
separated so that the association now con
ducts aiv old ladles' homo and a child's
horn. . ? , nnd other organizations have under
taken slmllnrwork. . Yet there Is no one of
them which meets Just the saime demand as
that which faces the Women's Christian as
sociation. T.ie effort next yeur will be tenet
not only carry on the usual work , but to
ralso a fund for the construction of a much
needed Institution , a protestnnt orphanage.
The Victorian Jubilee fund has been of
fered to the association for this purpose
providing It can duplicate the > amount ,
which Is about $7JO.
