' filrr AN Committee * of KIc-lsorH nit the iSprclnl MnmitH Visits ( InDepartment. . A correspondent of one of the numerous philatelic journals which opposed the Issu ance of a scries of special postage stamps commemorative of the exposition contrib utes nn nrticlo to his paper , giving the re sult of Interviews with Postmaster General Gary and Third Assistant Postmaster Gen- cial .Mcrrltt before the former had taken flnnl notion and Issued the order for the making of the stamps. The correspondent was ono of a committee appointed to regis ter it vlgorouii protest with the authorities of the Postolllce department against the pro posed Issue , nnd especlnlly against the pro poned $1 and ? J denominations. 'Iho correspondent records that "It scorned illllluilt to make any kind of an Impression upon 'Mr. ' Morrltt , " who "expressed the opin ion that there was sulllclcnt demand for the higher denominations to justify their Issue nnd rather than sco them displaced by the 3-tent and 0-ccnt denominations , as sug gested by the committee , ho would add the latter to the set. " The cominlttecmen then called on the head of the department , Mr. Gary. The postmaster general Is quoted as uajlng to thu committee "I found I had the power to authorize this Issue and did It becausu I wanted to help the people in the west. The Transmlsslsslppl Exposition mrnns a great deal to the people of that section of our country , and Its character Is decidedly an International one , no less than llftccn foreign nations having promised their support. While I am pleased to hear the opinion of any American citizen in regard to this Issue , I do not consider philatelists greater patriots on account of the Interest they take In the stamps of their country No ono is compelled to buy the high values unless ho wishes to do so. " The correspondent records that the com- tnltteo then suggested to tbo postmaster general that numerous foreign governments of small caliber have resorted to special btamp Issues to replenish a depleted ex chequer , and hinted that this great govern- incivt might ho lowered to the level of these countries If the headlong course of the de partment was persisted In. Mr. Gory gently Informed I lie committee that ho should do nothing which would lower the dignity of the American nation , and the Interview uas at an end. Moiitnmi'N .Srliuol i\lillilt : , An educational exhibit Is being prepared by the Montana schools which will bo In- dialled In the exposition by the exposition commission of that state.

It Is stated that the efforts of the St. Louis and Miteourl commissions have aroused much Interest en the t rt of nil ptibllc-nplrlted citizens , especially the Indus trial and commercial people.

Rlorlot of .Arliiiusnt The Denver Times In a recent Issue com mends the action of the people In the Ar kansas valley of Colorado , who have gene energetically to work to prepare nn exhibit of the resources of their section , regardless of the result which may attend the efforts of the Colorado exposition commission to provide ways and means for a state exhibit nt the exposition. Among other compli mentary things the Times savs : The Arkiinsiq volley Is ono of the rich est of tha many rich garden spots of ! Colorado rado ml already has made a inline nnd a fiimo for Itself throughout the. length and brendth of the Innd. Its luscious watei- melons nnd Its delicious cantaloupes nro known nnd npprecl ited from the Atlantic to the 1'aclllc , nnd jet the general public hna little or no Idea of Its real worth nnd productiveness. It Is the prevailing Impres sion thnt mclonB nnd jickiubblts ure the only products of the- valley worth mention- Ing1. With a. determination of dispelling this Illusion the people of the Arkanb.is will ex hibit at Omaha such nn array of facts regarding garding- their Interests as shall compel the truth to bo .accepted. Agricultural products such as can only be grown under Colorado Irrigation will nlso be there. Including wheat Whlcn for quality and vleld cannot bp ex celled In any part of the country. There will likewise bo fruits of finest flavor nnd texture , nnd nnny other things to delight the hearts of those who nppreclito the bounties of nature , whIUi have been so liberally bestowed upon this beautiful valley. Cn\ eminent Kxhlhlt IMniifl. W. dcC. Havenel , the representative of the Pish commission on the _ Government BoirJ of Control , writes to President Wattles that the aquariums in the Government build ing In which will bo shown the llvo fish to bo exhibited by the commission will bo completed and ready for use May 1. Many of the fish will bo shipped to Omaha about that tlmo and placed at once In the tanks , especially these Which might bo affected by the comparutlveJvhigh / temperature if transferred hero later In the season. Captain II. C. Ward , U. S. A. , detailed for duty In charge of the War department exhibit at the exposition , will arrive In Omaha about Thursday of this week. As soon ns ho arrives President Wattles will consult with him regarding the establish ment of a military bureau for providing for the state troops from various states which dcslro to camp at Omaha during the expo sition. Captain Ward had charge of such c. bureau In connection with the Nashville exposition and Its operation was quite suc cessful. Souvenir IMntPi , Marcus Benjamin , an attache of the Na tional museum at Washington and member of the jury of awards at the World's fair ami the Nashville exposition , suggests to the exposition authorities that an effort bo made to Fccuro some prominent American potter to make plates or other plece.3 of chlnawaro bearing pictures of the exposition buildings and points of Interest about tlio exposition anu umalia. Mr. uenjamln sajs tliat at Former expositions It lisa been the custom to have souvenirs of this kind made on the grounds nnd they have proved to bo very popular , but he says In every case these have jecn made by foreign firms. He lays particu lar stress upon the fact that the Tiansmls- slss'ppl and International Exposition is peculiarly am American exposition and sug gests that American Industry should bo en couraged in every manner coming within Its scopo. Ho expressed the belief that there are a number of potters In tills country who would regard such a. suggestion with favor and ho suggests n firm as tavlng tbo facilities for doing this class of work In an artistic manner. Latinliiierlcnii Participation. Commissioner P. T. Illckford , the eastern agent of the Department of Publicity and Promotion , who has been working with the nlnlfitcrs and other representatives of the Latin-American countries to eecuro their a&ilstanco In securing exhibits at the ex- xwltlon by their governments , writes that 10 has little hope of securing government appropriations from these countries , owing o the dclajs of the malls and the pro- rcrb'al slowness with which governmental unctions are performed. Ho says , however , that the foreign representatlvea have all iromlsod their assistance and have assured ilm that numerous exhibits of the manufac- urlng and other Interests of their coun- trlecj will bo made at Omaha.

NO AGREEMENT ON WATER Several Hours Spent in Talk with Barren Results. MEANTIME EXPOSITION IS IN DANGER Matter Taken Out of Rvpnultlnn l- rector'M Hand * mill Referred to Committee of Cltj'n Com mercial llodlci. \1though the conference between the water committee of the exposition association nnd members of the various commercial bodies of the city was prolonged last night until 11 30 o'clock , no solution of the problem to provide water for the grounds was reached. These who met with the committee as mem bers ot business organizations weio Presi dent James E. Doyd , Contain Palmer and S. H. ilcWhortcr , At the Doird of Trade ; W. G. Shrtver , C. C. George and Alonzo I * . Tukey of the Heal Estate Excbango ; Presi dent Gcorgo r. Munro , A. D. Morse nod Ovando Cowles of the Business Men's asso ciation ; Attorney W. S. Poppleton , W. D. McIIuglTand John Stcelo ot the Commercial lub. The Central Labor union had , been re quested to send a committee- the confer ence , but no members of that organization put In an appearance. City Attorney J. Cou ncil and Councilman Ernest Stunt were pres ent , as were also Attorneys J. M Wool worth and U. 8. Hall nnd General Manager H. L. Blerbower nnd Superintendent A. H. Hunt , representing the water works company. Chairman Treeman P. Kirkcndall of the water committee 'was ' In attend ance , but at his request Attorney C. S. Mont- ogmery presided over the confcrcnse , during which every conceivable phase of the con troversy with the water works coirpany was exhaustively discussed. The attorneys for the water works company Insisted that tills corporation could do nothing for the exposi tion as long as Its hands were tied by court Injunctions nnd Mr. Poppleton , attorney for ono set of cnjolncrs , Insisted that ho could promise nothing In the shape of a com promise for his clients. At times ttio de bate grew heated and personalities weio bandied freely between ) the o | position law- jers. Councilman Stuht said that the city council had decided to leave the matter en tirely alone and City Attorney Connell ex plained the legal complications involved , so far as the injunctions against the mayor and council were concerned. E. Uosowater urged the necessity of prompt action , as did also every other person present. On. motion of Mr. Munro It was finally de cided to take the work of attempting to effect a compromise between the water works company nnd the other parties to the Injunc tion suits entirely out of the hands of the exposition directory. It was tfoo sense of the meeting that the executive committee of the Board of Trade , Real Estate Exchange. Duslncss Men's association , Commercial club and Central Labor union should be re quested to meet Immediately and each ap point three members of Its respective or ganization , none of whom shall be a director of the exposition , to get together as n com mittee aid formulate such concessions as to 'both the city and the water works com pany as tbey might licpo would bring about a settlement of the question. This committee Is Instructed to wait upon the conrany with Ita compromise and endeavor to bringIt around to some understanding. If the com pany should consent to a settlement cm the plan the committee shall propose , then the 1'itter will carry Its proposition to the plain tiffs In the Injunction suits for their ap proval. In the cytnlon of a majority ol these present at the conference this nas about the cnly plan by which a speedy settlement of the controversy could be accomplished AMUSEMENTS. The many appearances In. the city of Mr. Lewis Morrison In his own Ingenious ar rangement of "Fount , " wherein ho plainly suffered Ills own individual talents 'Jo bo outshone by the electric lights ot that spec tacle , had not prepared Omaha , theator-goers for so onjojablo a legitimate performance as thnt of last night , when ho presented "Tho Master of Ceremonies" for the first tlmo at Dojd's. The piece , for the author ship of which Mr. Morrison docs not dis claim responslbllltj1 , Is a melodrama of good , though as jet rather crude,1 quality , In which the interest centers In a character which may bo made , If It has not yet be come , ono of the most notable figures In the Icontemporanou.'i ' drama. It Is not too much to saj < that there are great possibil ities for a great actor In such a part as Stuart Denvllle. Richard 'Mansfield ' made his Deau Drummell out of IMS material. Indeed , ono could wish that Ulr. Morrison had but skimmed the cream off the full pan of bis opportunities , instead of using the entlri contents so lavishly ; such moder ation would have tended to clear up certain points in the action which are at present tomowhat obscured by the surging of events and would hive supplied a charm of sim plicity -which the author has evidently striven for but baa not quite attained. How ever , both play and performance seemed ac ceptable to the audience lat night , which recalled Sir. 'Morrison ' heartily at the end of each act , and to which ho made an ap preciative curtain speech. The support Is In Imost respects excellent , and Includes Florence Roberts , Phyllis Morrison , Mrs. Tapfleld , Darton Hill , White Whlttlesey , Chailes Wlllard , Gordon Foster , Searle Daw- ley and others of merit. "Tho Master ot Ceremonies" will bo presented again tonight , and tvvlco tomorrow. The 'extravaginaa "Miss Philadelphia , " comes to Omaha for two performances next Sunday afternoon and evening.

There was a crowded lobby when Major Cnsor called the city council to order las Jlqht. The first business was the reading by the clerk of the report of the committee on police on the charges tiled , by David Mc- Court against Olllcers Montague , Mulcahj and Shectan. A brief review" of the tcstl many was given nnd the committee recom mended that Ofllccr Montague bo suspcndec for thirty dajs end tl.at Onicer Sheelun bo suspended for fifteen dajs. Caldvtell though that ns the mayor was at the head of the police department the report ought to bo referred to the executive. Ho did not bo- licvo that the council should take any hast > action. Vansant and S.Viult ? objected to re ferring the matter. They wanted the councl to either adept or reject the report. Major Cnsor said that ho was of the opinion that the police ought to too upheld in main taining good order -In the city. He though ! the report too severe. Caldw ell's amend ment to refer the matter to the ma > or was voted down and the report was adopted , Bar rett , Tralnor and Caldwell voting against It The an.onded gas ordinance came up In the regular order of bujliicfs. I'ao amendments provide that the company shall give to the city a bond to be approved by the major am coiacll , of not Ices than $ j,000 and not more than 15,000 , to Indemnify the city against loss by reason of accidents during the ex cavations , t r by the ASO of defective material. In case all of the provisions of tbo ordi nance nre 'not compiled with the franchise will bo forfeited. The judiciary committee recommended the pascago ot the ordinance as amended tund the report -was accepted. Scfoultz then moved ttat the rules bo eurpended nnd the ordi nance placed on its final passage. The vote on the passage of the ordinance was unani mous and the major declired the ordinance passed. Messrs Fljnn , Cressey and Wyman , the projectors of the new gas companj' , then withdrew nud soon sent in a box of flue cigars for the council. Considerable tlmo was consumed In the reading of ordinances levj Ing special taxes for the Missouri avenue and Twontv-nfth street sower. These ordinances will come up at the next meeting for final passage. The grade on the alley between Twentj- flrst and Twenty-second streets.nnd J and K streets was established by ordinance. No report was made by the committee on streets and alleys on the requcbt of the Bradford Lumber company for permission to lay n track across Dellcvuo avenue In Albright. Several members of the council expressed a desire to personally Investigate the matter so that it was agreed to postpone action 'for a week. In this connection a pe tition signed by quite n number of Twenty- fourth street and N street business men , remonstrating against the laying of the track , was read and referred to the street nnd alley committee. Minnlo Oliver , through her attorney , W. C. Lambert , filed n claim of $3,000 $ for dam ages on account of Injuries received by rea son of a defective sldowalk. Property owners petitioned for the grad ing ot the alley between P nnd Q streets nnd Seventeenth and eighteenth streets. It Is represented that this alley Is In a dan gerous condition and cannot be used. The street and alley committee will In vestigate th creport that the railroad track west of Cudahy's had been fenced , thus closing the road to the Homo of tbo Good Shepherd. Kelly wanted a special attorney employed to go over the records and ECO If it would bo possible to reopen the Lund case. This Is the case vvhcro Lund secured n Judgment against the city for $ GCO on account of dam ages by grading. It was docldcd to allow EOino attorney $10 for looking up the records. January salaries and bills were ordered paid.As . As a Board of Equalization the council considered tbo nsiessmcnt for the Missouri nvcnuo sewer and special sidewalk assess ments. Bennett , as chairman of the commlt- tco on streets and alleys , offered a motion overruling all of the protests on the sewer assessment and recommending the adoption of the plan proposed by the city engineer. This plan calls for the pnjmcnt of the heav iest tax by the property abutting on Mis souri avcnuo and graduating the tax back , the lots farthest away pajlng the least. The report was adopted , Darrett being the only one voting In the negative. Only ono complaint was filed on the per manent sidewalk district. This was from C , M. Hunt , who objected to the replacing of Bovcral good planlc walks with brick , He alleged tbnt the permanent sidewalks had not been properly laid and had not been of any benefit to his property. It was agreed to postpone action on. this complaint until next Monday night. Adjourned for ono week.
