'SYRACUSE ' , N. Y. , July 11. The state
ment Is made In this city that the reported
compact between President Galloway of the
New York Central and President Cassett of
the Pennsylvania is in reality a renewal of
n former treaty agreeing upon territorial
limits in this state and Pennsylvania for
the two properties and their branches. This
agreement was made about the time of the
Jeaso of the Rome , Wntortown & Ogdensburg
by the Control and when the Pennsylvania
was about to fit out its branch called the
Northern Central with tormlnals .at Sodus
Point on Lake Ontario forfeits passenger
business of the Great Lakes. The recent
expansion of the Vanderbllts through the
Hecch Creek and Fallbrook lines nnd into
rittsburg was in violation of this agree
ment. The Herald today states that the real
significance of the agreement made In Now
York was a new treaty and division of terri
tory , which will put an end to the growth
of the Central branches into Pennsylvania

At the meeting of the executive commlttco
f the Commercial club yesterday the com
mittee decided to hold n mass meeting In
he Chamber of Commerce hall Tuesday even-
ng. July 18 , for the purpose of obtaining
he sentiment of the public on the disagree
ment between the two papers. A committee ,
onalstlng of Messrs. Kuhn , Wllcox nnd
lospe , was appointed to tnke charge of the
ncotlng nnd to advertise It thoroughly. It
appeared to be the sense of the committee
hat If the papers found from the public
cnllmenl that the controversy they nre
arrylnc on Is detrimental to their own
nteresls , to that of Iho city and the citizens
generally , they would cease It.
The committee decided to entertain the
Missouri Vnlley Coat Denlcrs' association ,
which will bo In session In this city July
,5-20 , at a banquet on the fast ntgbl.
C. F. Allen submitted nn offer to erect a
louring mill In , this city with Iho co-opcra-
lon of the citizens. He agrees to build n
mill with a dally capacity of 1,000 barrels
nd capable of storing 60,000 bushels of
grain If the citizens will take $15,000 capllal
lock. Ho will have the mill entirely free

iOAL SUPPLY RUNS SHORT
Fires III the Local Smelter Arc Al
lotted to Smolder and
Ulo.
On account of being unable to procure
oal the fires In a number of the furnaces
.t the Omaha smelter have been allowed to
lie. Three of the load furnaces arc dead
md some of the blast furnaces are without
uel with which to keep them In operation.-
\s a result of this about 600 of the 800 men
usunlly employed are out of work.
It Is said that the conditions existing at
he smelter are not duo to any fault of the
smeller people , but because It Is impossible
o secure a supply of coal. For weeks there
las been a strike at the Iowa and Illinois
: oal mines. The supply of cheap coal here
IBS been completely exhausted and It has
jeen Impossible to replenish the stock. At
: ho Rock Springs mines of the Union Pacific
: here are no labor'troublos , but this coal Is
oo expensive to use In the smelter furnaces
and consequently it is not bought and
shipped In. How long this condition will
irevall the smeller people arc unable to say.
They are hoping for a speedy adjustment of
the labor troubles , but are unable to offer
a remedy.

MDTTER1NCS FROM MIDWAY
Concessionaires Meet and Demand that They
Be Given a Square Deal ,
WANT VALUE RECEIVED FOR THEIR MONEY
Dr. Sillier Token III * Noun Into Thplr
AflTnlrn Hnrileii llonnocM Outright
from Department of Publicity
nml Promotion.
In spllo of the desperate efforts of the
ocal official organ ot the exposition to
jolster up Ihe enterprise by every pdsslblo
ncans , whether rcpulablo or not , the men
vho have put their money Into concessions
mvo began lo sco Iho handwriting on the
vail , and murmurs of discontent and half-
nuttcred charges of various offenses could
bo heard on the Midway Monday. There
iractlcally was no crowd lo altcnd the show
urine the day.
The most intercsllng event of the day ,
lowevcr , took place during the nfternoon ,
vhcn the concessionaires held a meeting to
00 what could be done to benefit themselves
and the exposition. There was a full nt-
cndanco , all financially intercslcd In the
illdwny shons seeming to realize that , it
anything was to bo done to help themselves
ut of the hole into which they had been
lunged by the ignorance nnd Incompctency
of the managers , there was no tirao to be
ost. The meeting was unanimously of the
pinion that the exposition management
iwcd it to the concessionaires to open the
gates of Pain's Battle of Manila and the
nightly fireworks to the public without
barging for scats. Again , ns the spec-
ado Is considered ono of the main nttrnu-
lens of the exposition , It Is unfair to make
1 charge for viewing It ; besides It monop-
illzcs the attention of the visitors with Its
lyrotcchnlo display , and It Is almost use-
ess for any other show to attempt to do
business during this time. . It was unanl-
nously resolved that the management
hould be called upon either to make It a
ree show , or If this should entail too great
n expense , that the project be postponed.
The next action of the meeting was not
unexpected by the public. They denounced
the officers of the exposition who were In-
.eresled in Midway concessions , because
.hose officers were doing all in their power
o pull together against the legitimate con
cessionaires.
Ilr. .Miller StleUn Ills Xouc In.
At this point Dr. Miller entered the room
and remarked that he had dropped in by
accident , and that It was the first Intimation
10 had had that such a meeting was being
icld , which announcement was greeted with
dubious smllo and several distinctly
nudlblo nnd emphatic expressions of opinion
on the part of his hearers which were neither
compllmenlary to the doctor's veracity or
lis Intelligence.
After the doctor bad been disposed of the
mslncss of the meeting proceeded and a
very emphatic protest was made against
he retaining of so many cashiers. Many of
ho concessionaires stated that they had
not taken in enough during the day to pay
ho salaries of tlie cashiers forced upon
hem by the exposition , without mentioning
.ho other expenses they were under. One
man particularly had a kick to register ,
st Friday his total receipts had amounted
to 95 cents , and of this 20 per cent went to
the exposition. He was also obliged to pay
the cashier's salary of $52 n month nnd
thought that tlio tima had come when this
sort of thing should stop. The outcome of
the discussion was that many present
threatened to close their concessions unless
relief was afforded some time today.
Hnydcn lloniicon Cntrl lit.
Another interesting feature of the exposl-
, lon proceedings of yesterday was the dis
charge of J. W. Outright , superintendent of
.he Bureau of Publicity and Promotion , by
William Hayden , manager of the depart
ment. All has not been smooth sailing in
: hls department for some tlmo because of
Mr. Cutright's refusal to recognize Hayden
as the sole authority of the office. Some
days ago Mr. Hayden became possessed of
the idea that the bureau was not doing as
much work as it should and plainly Inti
mated so to Mr. Cutrlght. As may he
maglned such a remark was not calculates
o increase the superintendent's confidence
n his chief , but nothing was done at the
Ime. A day or so later Mr. Hayden again
called Cutrlght and informed him that here
after ho would have to get along with ono
stenographer , which Mr. Cutrlght emphatic
ally refused to do , and for the time ho was
allowed to go on. Some weeks ago Mr.
Hayden made a contract for some $4,000
with a number of country papers for adver
tising by means of the "patent Inside , " and
he final trouble resulted over this. This
contract Outright steadfastly refused to
approve , and finally Mr. Hayden was. com
pelled to assume the responsibility for the
contract Nothing -was said at the time ,
but > Mr. Hayden nursed his wrath and
awaited an opportunity. It was covertly
whispered that Outright had been enjoying
privileges and emoluments In other words
'a rake-off" that ho was not entitled to by
reason of his pceltion , and there seems to
bo but llttlo doubt that 'Mr. ' Hayden
was the author of these stories.
The climax was reached yesterday , how-
over. Mr. Hayden peremptorily reduced his
clerical force to two stenographers and Cut-
right Immediately lodged a protest with the
directors. When Mr. Hayden entered the
office and Inquired what his superintendent
was doing ho was told sarcastically that
there was nothing to do and wns shown the
desk filled with unanswered mail , which it
was impossible to get out with the force at
hand , Without paying any heed to the con
dition of affairs in the office , Mr. Hayden
said ; "If there's nothing to do , then you
may ns well go. " And Outright was looking
for a job.
It Is said that Hnyden has been endeavor
Ing for some months to get rid of his su
perintendent because of a personal grudge.
Cutrlght is a newspaper man and well
known in Nebraska. When the war on the
department stores was started by the Penny
Press some tlmo ago Outright wrote the ed
itorials that arraigned the department stores
of the city In general and Hnydon's In par
ticular , Hayden became aware of this fnct
and started out after the scalp of his super
intendent. How well ho succeeded IK al
ready known. And yet ho Is not happy.
A mass meeting of citizens nnd exposition
stockholders will bo held tomorrow evening
at the southeast corner of Sherman avenue
and Locust street to discuss exposition
affairs with a view of agreeing upon some
plan to bring about a reorganization and

Fast , safe , superbly equipped and most
carefully governed , one need not wonder at
the great popularity of the Now York Cen
tral. No other line affords such facilities
for through travel between the east and the
west as this wonderful four-track system.
In the possession of Grand Central station.
located In the heart of New York city , and
within trifling distances of all first-class
hotels , this railway offers greater advan
tages than competing lines. Spring , sum
mer , autumn and winter. It has attractions
Irresistible. . The great northern wilderness ,
the playground of the state , now beckons
Its thousands. As autumn falls , America's
Bcenic master-piece , far-famed Niagara , will
era 1m its annual host of pilgrims with its
majestic power , the fierce turmoil of the
whirlpool and all the picturesque surround
ings , the awesome Cave of the Winds and
the several other minor attractions of the
vicinity. And when winter comes , then the
entire scene transformed to what seems a
fairyland of marvelous frost dressings , of
Icy forts and snowy palaces ; of gleaming ,
crystal prison barriers vainly striving to
bind the roaring , foaming plunge of water
will present a spectacle of weird , myste
rious beauty which Is not duplicated In the
world. Outing.
