Omaha Is rapidly assuming a position ,
through Mayor Uroatcb , regarding the so-
lootion of a slto for the World's ' fair In 1803 ,
which promises to give her prominence and
nny amount of free advertising.
ticvonil weeks nqn , the commlttoo at
"WnshlnKton sonl out letters nddrcaiad to
tlio mayors of leading cities rcijucstlne thorn
to express their preferences ns between
Now V'ork mid Chicago an the nlnco for
holding the next World's fulr. Kucantly
the list of replies wits published in L'ubllo
Opinion , and among tlioio of the west ,
Mayor Urontch'n is the only ono wlilcli
stands favoring Now York.
Thin morning the latter gentleman re
ceived the following letter :
MA.run's OFFICE , Now Yorlr , Sept. 11 , ' 89.
DourSir : I liavo the honor to request
your nlti and co-operation to Insuru the hold
ing of an Internatlouiil exposition in 1893 In
Now York city , and to raalco the exposition
worthy of tlio United States and the indus
trial procress of the world. Through you ,
the city of Now York asks the city of Oma
ha , its authorities , Its coin in ore ml bodies its
industries and Us citlrena , to join with us In
cotmnuniorntliifr the four hundredth anniver
sary of the discovery of America by Colum
bus.

I have the hpnor to request you that you
act with us yourself or designate some ono
to represent the city of Omaha who will express -
press to us your wishes. Truly yours ,
HUGH .1. GIIANT , Mayor.
Ills honor the mayor of Omaha.
In explanation of his choice , Mr. Broatch
said that ho Imd not only taken into consid
eration the wishes of n majority of tun bus
iness men of Omaha , but the interests of
the country at large.
"If It were to bo nn Inter-Btato affair , "
said he , " 1 would probably have acted differ
ently , but being an international exposition ,
some consideration should bo given foreign
countries whooxpccttocomo across tha ocean
with exhibits. It would ho unjust to ask
them to travel 1,100 miles into tbo interior
after landing at Now York or any seaport.
DoubtlOHS , many thousand foreigners will
visit the fair , and Now York Is the only city
well prepared to tolro care of them. Anyway -
way , I iton't pronoso to help build up Chicago
In direct opposition to the best Interests of
Omaha , for many otnor reason than the 0110
Civen. "

Intc at Florence Ijalcc.
Otto Uolln , the oldest sou of County
Treasurer Holln , n lad thirteen years of ago ,

While out hunting which will probably
cripple him for life. Ho and an asso
ciate named Champs wcro at Florence
lake shooting ducks. When the companion
was loading his gun a flock How near whcro
the boys ware standing and in his haste to
pot a shot at the fivers , the young friend's
gun exploded prematurely the load striking
young Uollu in the calf of his loft leg.
Tlio charge not only loolc full effect but tore
nil the ilcsh oft the bone and burned young
Bolln's trousers. The little boy displayed
great nerve. He was taken homo in a car
riage and is getting along as wall as could bo
expected.
MKT AT THE GROSSING.
Stccil and JloviiiR Car Coma
In Unnizorous Con met ,
An exciting runaway , with rather disas
trous results , took place a few minutes past
8 o'clock yesterday morning.
John Henderson , coachman for Dr. Amelia
Burroughs , 1017 Dodge strcot , was bringing
out that , lady's team of spirited buys at
tached to her carriage when the horses took
fright , and , breaking away from the coach-
Clan , started down Dodge street at a tremendous
deus gait. A Snutidors street car was cross
ing Dodge and Fifteenth streets nt the time.
Tno car driver saw the runaways coming ,
and whipped up his team to gotout of the
way , but could not avoid a collision.
The team struck the car fairly in the mid-
fllo with such force that it was
knocked off the truck and overturned.
U'ho driver of the car was thrown
put ot hK box but was not injured. Two
passengers who were in tlio car , a gentleman
aud a lady , escaped without being hurt. The
runaway horses were knocked down. One
of them was apparently slightly stunned and
was taken out of the harness all right. The
Other horse , a mngnlllcunt blooded bay ,
seemed to have received tbo burden of the
shock and was laid out , nnpnronily dead ,
and tbero was a scramble for possession of
the animal. Poundmastor Cory wanted to
take it to the city pound , Garbage Inspector
Goldsmith wanted to haul It to the city dump
and City Veterinarian Homacciottl thought
ho could save the animal's life. The animal
was a favorite with Dr. Burroughs and she
cave it into the city veterinarian's charge ,
U'lio horsu was removed to Dr. Kamucclotti's
Btables for treatment. The unluml's injuries
nro of an internal nature.
The carrlago was but slightly damaged.
{ The strcot car was broken in on ono sido.
Dr. Hnmocciotti states that the horse in his
para was parulyrcd from the shook and can
not possibly survive.

1 In THE DUE'S
Washington telegrams yestor-
flay , William B. Curtis , special ugeiit of the
state department , is quoted a * aaylng that
unless the people of Omaha mow BO mo inter
est In the proposed visit of tha delegates
to the international American congress on
heir excursion to this part of the country ,
hey will select sotno other city and visit horn
n stead.
Mr. Curtis has the excursion In charge.
1C claims to have notlllcd Mayor tJroatch ,
Senator Munilorson , Senator Pnddook and
2ongrossman Connell ot his Intention to
irmg the party hero , but having hoard
nothing from them in reply to his communi-
sation naturally supposed the matter bad
icon treated with Indifference.
Mayor liroatch , Senator Mnndorson and
ithor * who foci interested wore seen yester
day morning and said that Omaha would bo
ready when the time cumo to do her part.
The mayor declared , however , that the
inly loiter ho had icon from Mr. Curtis was
ho ono Senator Mandorson had received ,
which nnd boon turned over to him. Ho
ironoscs to lay it before the board of trade
with a personal request to that body to ao
something towards making preparations for
receiving jind entertaining the visitors.
In this letter Mr. Curtis says tha party
will bo computed of Bovunty-Bvo persons ;
that they will reach hero from Sioux City
about noon Saturday , October i > 0 , und leave
nt U o'clock that night for Fort Loavca-
worth.
Mr. Connell placed hU notlco of tlio pro-
losod visit In the hands of President Lee , of
the city council , who had it read nt the last
meeting of that body. Preliminary action
, vas thoii taken In the appointment of Messrs.
Wlioalcr , Huscalt , Couasman , Van Camp
and Uallcy as a commlttoo on arrangements.
While bo will not bo ho re at the tlmo of
.holr coming , Senator Mandorson is anxious
to hnvo tbeso people sco Omaha and will do
nil ho can to hive both the council nnd board
of trade prepare to entertain thorn in a
iropor manner.
Mayor Broutch thinks the city is In finan
cial shapa to make a respectable appropria
tion for that purpose , nndaif the board of
trade can do as much the visitors will bu
given n drive In currlngcs nnd banqueted ,
In the meantime Mr. Curtis will have hU
nnxlnty relieved , and thus saved tlio trouble
of makng | any changes In thu programmo.
Senator Mandorson sild , however , thxtlt
, vas time for the committee to got to work.
It would not do to go to sleep. The com-
nlttoc should moot Immediately , notify Mr.
Curtis of the fact that a reception was In
course ot preparation , nnd that they would
Keep him informed of later movements.
Denver is anxious to receive and oitertaln
; heso distinguished visitorsas nro also a num
ber of other cities entitled to n call from
.hem. "Omaha cannot afford to bo charged ,
with lack of courtesy , nor the want of enter
prise to entertain them. "
Later Major Whculer , chairman of- the
council committee , telegraphed Mr. Curtis
this afternoon , that all necessary arrange
ments would bo made for the entertainment
of tbo congress.

SIXTY FEET IMjlSASK T1II3JI.
Tenth Street Taxpayers Want a Via
duct of Tlmt Width.
There scorns to bo a concerted action
among the members of the council and the
managers of the B. & M. and Union P.icilio
railways to arrive at a definite and satisfac
tory compromise which will secure the set
tlement of the union depot and viaduct
schemes at the earliest date possible.
Thu status of the scheme is something like
ttns : Under the provisions of the city charter -
tor tbo city cannot build viaducts but can
compel railroad companies to build them.
The B. & M. nnd Union Pacific com
panies , as u part of their proposition
on tbo union depot scheme- offer to build the
viaduct if the city will vote n bonus of $150-
000 to the Union Depot company. This plan
has generally been agreed to , but the bitch
came at the council meeting on Saturday
night , when the widtb of the proposed via
duct was discussed. The councilmen dif
fered in their preferences , some wanting a
sixty-foot viaduct , some a 100-foot and some
in favor of a compromise. Tbero was no
difference between the managers of the rail
road companies. Their position is that the
companies 1mvo agreed to put 50,000 moro
into a viaduct than the citv will vote for n
bonus toward the depot. The companirsliavo
Hgured 01. a bonus of S15',090 ) from the cit v and
huvo accordingly prepared plans for a via
duct to coat SJOO.OOO. This amount will build
a sixty-foot , viaduct. The railway companies
state that they can't put but $50,000 moro
than the bonus into the viaduct. If the city
wants an eighty-foot viaduct to cost ? 250,000
the bonus must bo increased to ? 200,000 , and
another $50,000 added if a 100-foot viaduct is
decided upon. This position enables the rail
road companies to express their satisfaction
with any plans that may bo approved by the
council , the city f o pay tbo increase over the
cost of the sixty-foot plans figured upon by
the railroads.
The question of damages to tlio abutting
property owners will decide in a great meas
ure the width of the proposed viaduct.
Muny of the property owners on the street
have expressed an opinion in the matter. The
majority of them are strongly opposed to the
sixty foot viaduct. Thoyclaun that it would
compel them to'do business under the via
duct or to build unsightly extensions to the
structure. A viaduct 100 feet wide is also
opposed by them on the ground that it would
leave them no room in which to remodel
their present buildings to conform with tuo
proposed improvement. A committee of the
council hua boon engaged in interviowintr
the property holders and finds that a majority
of those scan favor an eighty foot viaduct
providing the city will donate the remaining
ton foot on each sldo of thu
viaduct to the abutting property
holders nnd thus enable them to remodel
their buildings to conform to the plan of the
viaduct. It is estimated that if an 80-foot
viaduct is built under those conditions the
property owners will waive all damages
while if n GO or 100-foot structure is erected
tbo damages claimed will almost equal the
cost of the viaduct. The matter will come
up for further consideration at the council
mooting to-night.

Ilnsty Paving Ovur Unsettled Fillings
Hounil to Cri-ntn 1'hom.
It Is said that Hugh Murphy intends to
commence paving Twenty-first street from
Davenport four blocks north Just as noon as
the water and gas companies got their pipes
lowered.
Chairman Balcombe , of thoboardof public
works , shakes his head at what ho terms
this "precipitous haste" In paving1 before the
street gets settled over excavations , and says
that moro dangerous waah-awuys under the
pavement are sura to follow.
The paving on Twenty-second street
was put down under the bumo
ciroumtancos and the major prophecies
bad results there also , citing a number of big
washouts under the pavement , among which
Is the ouo on South Sixteenth street , where
n cavern over " 03 foot in length aad aver
aging about six feet in height was washed
nut under the roadway through undue haste
in putting down pavements after various ex
cavations huva been made in the street.
The major insists that the streets should
be allowed a year to settle after such dis
turbances.
Something to llcmoniuor.

Dear sir : Having boon employed to in
