Exposition matters are tn a most flourish
ing condition In Colorado anil thcro Is no
longer n question about the Centennial
stale being represented at the exposition In
a manner which will cause Its citizens to

fair.
fair.The Colorado commission held a spirited
meeting In Denver Tuesday night and heard
the reports ot the. representatives who had
vlsltrd Omaha , "Messrs. A. T. Macdonald
nnd W. S , Ward , and then the position ot
the state commission , towards the vurloun
county nnd district organizations was de
fined In the following motion which wan
offered by W. S. Ward and seconded by
Mrs. Kmnm Homan Tlmyor , well known In
Omaha and ono ot the exposition city's
firmest friends :
The state commission extr-nds to the sev

The Department of Concessions has under
consideration a proposition for a mechanical
novelty called a "whirling splralus , " and wis
Invented by Frederick W. Thompson , the
Inventor of the "giant , see-saw" which was
operated at the N'ashvlllo exposition. He
proposes to erect a stcol , cylindrical towr 200
feet In height And fifteen feet in diameter
having a spiral thread tunning around It
from top lo bottom. A largo car fits uround
this cylinder and Is furnished with several
heavy pinions , or cog wheels , which mesh
Into teeth In the spiral thread. Two flftcen-
horse power motors operate these
pinions and raise. and lower the
car , giving It a circular motion
wihen ascending or descending. Four arms ,
each thirty-four fcot In length , project from
the car at right angles and at tlio end of
each of tboco Is suspended a small car ,
capable of containing several people. These
cars are reached by bridges passing ; through
thu arms. At the top ot the tower Is a plat
form which may bo reached by passengers
when the car Is at Its highest point. The

BOISE. Idaho , Feb. 10. ( Special. ) The
Idaho-Omaha Exposition committee has Is
sued an appeal for funds for the purposeof
making a creditable display at the exposi
tion , the legislature not having provided any
appropriation. Certificates will bo Issued
to contributors , who will be reimbursed ,
should , the next legislature make an ap
propriation. The commission estimates the
total cost of the contemplated Idaho ex
hibit at $16,000. In its appeal the commis
sion says :
"In this state 'wo now have under exist
ing canals 2,000,000 acres of the choicest
farm and fruit land in , the world. Of this
no less than 400,000 acres is at present under
cultivation ! Wo want enterprising eastern
farmers to > buy these Idle lands. Wo cannot
get them without organized -and persistent
advertising. The exposition presents the
finest opportunity to d.ssemtnate Informa
tion about the state and to advertise the
fruits and grains , the mines and lands we
have for sale. "

The ono topic in exposition circles at tula
tlmo l the appointment ot ft director general -
oral or eomo other officer , by whatever title
ho may bo designated , who shall have gen
eral supervision over the work ot all of the
departments and who shall have authority
to reader a decision on any matter that may
bo presented. This subject haa been given
a great deal ot thought by nearly all of tbo
directors since the matter was discussed tn
the meeting of the directors about two
months ago and the opinion haa become gen
eral tbat the tlmo hna come when decisive
action must bo taken. Many of the directors
confess to a feeling ot delicacy about pro
ceeding In the matter without first having
the recommendation ot the executive com
mittee , while others eay that the matter L )
of too Important a nature to allow the per
sonal feelings ot any person to stand In the
way of carrying out what they declare la
simply a plain business propwltlCQ. Those
\\lio have had moat to do with the actual
working ot the present six-headed organiza
tion are most emphatic In the declaration
that there must bo n single bead who can
guide all the departments.
Not n slngljB suggestion has been made by
any of the directors of a man to fill the pro
posed position and thcro Is some difference or
opinion ad to the exact authority that should
bo conferred upon the officer , but there Is
fllfTnlTfinn nf nnlntnn ns tn thn ilnelfn-
blllty of centralizing all the work.
A canvass of those members of the board
of directors who are most accessible In ttie
business dlstrlct'of the city shows the senti
ment which prevails In the beard. Few ot
those who were called upon were not pre
pared to express an oplnlcci , the majority
having vcey decided opinions on the subject ,
\\hlch they had no hesitancy In expressing.
Thosa opinions follow :
TIME IS AT HAND.
John C. Wharton If the time haa not
already arrived when the exposition must
have a director general I am satisfied that
It will come very , very soon and action
should bo taken at once. I fully appreciate
the great debt of gratitude the community
owes to the men who have BO ably man
aged the enterprise thus far and every
body must admit that they have accom
plished wonders , but I am thoroughly con
vinced that there must bo n man placed In
general charge of this work who will have
authority to say yes or no on every proposi
tion that may be presented. When I was In
California recently I met M. II. Do Young ,
editor of the San Francisco Chronicle , who
was at the head ot the California Mid
winter fair. He said to me that our plan
of organization was faulty and would
have to bo changed If we wanted to make
the exposition a success. He took the pains
to show mo why this Is so , and I am un
wavering In my Idea that we must make a
change before It Is too late. If It Is not
done there will bo confusion worse con
founded in a very short time. I have
some hesitancy about moving tn the matter
without the full consent of the executive
men remain on the committee , but I be-
llevo the situation Is of such vital Import
ance tbat the board should act at once.
John I * Webster I believe the time will
come , If It Is not here now , when we must
have a director general. I am convinced that
our form of organization Is faulty , nnd It
should bo remedied before the matter gets
too far along. It might bo possible to cure
the defect by enlarging the powers of the
president , as was suggested some time ago ,
or It may bo necessary to create a new of
fice , but I bellovo a change will be abso
lutely necceaary In the near future. As soon
as exhibits begin to nrrlvo and the rush
of "getting ready" commences , It will bo ab
solutely necessary to have some ono with full
authority to decide the many points that will
bo continually arising.
ONE HEAD A NECESSITY.
J. II. Mlllard I think , as a plain 'business '
proposition , the exposition should have ono
head. A man with ability enough to properly
manage such an extensive enterprise might
command a high salary , Ibut It seems to mo
sudh a man Is a necessity and should be
put In full charge at once. Such a course
would relieve the members of the executive
committee of a great responsibility , and I
should think thy would be glad of sucha
change. They are nil busy men and I 'think
they have accomplished wonders , hut the ex
position Is growing every day and they can
not devote their full time to it to the ex
clusion of their own business and It would
bo unreasonable to expect them to do so.
Some ono must do so , 'however ' , and a man
should bo employed for that purpose.
r ruiut uuurpiiy i nuvu LIJUUKUI All aiong
that wo must have a director general , or
some officer with full authority to manage
the affair. It Is a plain business proposition
and ought to bo plain to everybody.
C. F. Weller Wo ought to have a dlrc-clce
general by all meana. There is no room for
argument oct such a plain business proposi
tion as that. The thing Is getting too big for
busy business men to manage It In tbo limited
tlmo the members of the executive committee
ought to bo expected to take from their own
business. Every member of that committee
has a largo business of his own to attend
to and thcy'are compelled to depend on their
subordinates in the exposition. Wo ought to
have a man on a salary , who will give the
thing bis whole attention and carry out the
Instructions of the executive committee ,
C. F. Manderson I believe the tlmo will
coma when the exposition will have to ha\o
a director general. Whether that time has
come now I am not prepared to say. I think
the executive committee Is the beat Judge of
that and I shall bo In favor of relying upon
the committee for a recommendation la tbo
matter before taking action.
NO OPINION TO EXPRESS.
Thomas L. Klmball I have given the mat
ter very llttlo thought recently , and am not
prepared to express an opinion. The general -
oral Impression among the directors , when
the matter aa discussed some time ago ,
seemed tn bo that building operations should
bo pushed as fast as possible and that when
the tlmo came a director general , or some
other officer , should bo placed in charge.
Whether that time has arrived , I am not
prepared to say ,
John A. Crelghton I have given the matter
very llttlo thought and have no opinion.
When I hear ( ho discussion on It , I shall
bo prepared to act as I think the situation
requires ,
John Johnson The tlmo has come and a
director general should bo appointed at once.
I ibellevo the board of directors ought to In
struct the executive committee to take the
necessary action to carry out that Idea.
Thcro should bo some man In full charuo of
all the work and ho should bo vested with
authority to paes upon the hundreds of
questions which are coming up all the t'mo ,
He ought to bo right on the spot at all times
so that people will not have to 3iin all over
town to find whether they can do this or
tint.
' C. M. Wllhelm I have given the matter
little thought and should want to hear from
tbo executive committee before expressing
an .opinion , but It seems to mo that there
should bo one head to any concern to avoid
confusion.
O , W. IHoldrego I liellevo we should have
a director general , but I am not prepared to
gay whether he should be appointed uow or
when the exposition opens.
One director who declined to allow hU
name lo be used In orancctlon with the
statement said he thought President \Vattlo3
mutt be perpetrating a huge joke when ho
said he would favor a director general , or a
general superintendent , "when all of the
executive committee are in favor of it. "
"Tbo president knows perfectly well , " eald
this director , "that certain members ot the
executive committee are unalterably opposed
to tbo Idea because they think H reflects
on them and they will never favor it , and
for the president to eay lie will favor U
when they do In equivalent lo raytog lo U
forever opposed to It.r , >

Stubbs , Ph. D. , chic ? b ? the gdvernmcni

resentation of that stji ot the exposition.
It they are successful in making desired
arrangements the Loulstanlacis believe the
agricultural exhibit from their state nil !
lead all others In Versatility and luxtlrlahco
ot products. The legislature which meets
In May Is looked to for a suitable appropria
tion and Governor Foster U so nwurod that
provision will be- made that he has authorized
tlio expenditure bf $15,000 to sot forth the
resource * of the slate. Prof. Stubbs eajs ,
therefore , .tlmt he oxpeca | that a gooa showIng -
Ing will be made from "the most fertile
40,000 square mllea In the country. "
Prof. Stubbs and Major Leo are Just now
tatcrcatcd In the outcome ot n constitutional
convention which Is being held In Louisiana
nnd which they state Is very Incompletely
reported In the papers. The convention \\ad
called by a heavy majority at the last elec
tion tor the purpose of revising the consti
tution In the Important regards ot the elec
tive franchise , the state Judiciary and the
school system. Ifl epcaklng ot the able
government ot Louisiana , Prof. Stubbs said
last night ! "The present constitution Is a
reactionary measure framed Just after the
war and too much In accord with the carpet-
bagging enthusiasm of that period , It
allows the negro rights which he Is In no
condition to accept cad which result In an
Injury to the state and ( q nil concerned.
The proposed constitution will place upon
the ballot the restraint of n educational
qualification , or a property qualification , or
both. The provision will probably bo made
that n man must be able to read and write
end expound Intelligently the constitution
before ho ehall bo eligible to vote. It may
bo added also that ho must be possessed of
from ? 200 to ? 500 worth of property to enjoy
the privileges of the ballot. Thus , the
negroe , ? will bo kept from the possession ot
the olllcra In the outlying districts of Louis-
lEcia , In pome of which parishes they out
number the whites by eight and nine to
one. In the wnolo state they nro only
slightly In the majority , but the proportion
of 225,000 whites In Now Orleans to 75,000
blacks leaves them heavily In the ascendency
In the planting districts.
"In regard to the changes which will bo
made In the judicial system we expect that
the whole plan will bo revised. As the state
courts are at present -constituted they are
most expensive and cumbersome. Wo have
five supreme judges at nn ancual salary of
$3,000 each , twelve appellate Judges drawing
$4,000 each and a largo number of district
Judges with a yearly salary of $3,000 , bring
ing a total yearly expense to the state of
$230.000. The new plan contemplates the
abolition of the appellate courts , when morn
business will fall upon the d'atrlct courts ,
which 'will ' ibo enlarged. A probable educa
tional feature of the new constitution will
bo that each school district will 'bo ' empow
ered to vote taxes for the education of Its
own children. It docs not enjoy this privi
lege at present and districts which 'Include
an almost entire colored population are
maintained by the taxes of outsldo taxpayers.
'Dcsldes ' these thcro will bo many loss Im
portant changes , as for Instinco. the name
of our 'parishes , ' which Is the old French
term for 'counties. ' The des'gnatlon was
first applied about 1840 and will now probably
bo changed to the modcrni title. "

WILKESBARUE. Pa. . Feb. 10. The first
witness called to the stand In the Lattlmer
case today was Morris Engleman ot West
Hazleton. Engleman said that on the day
of tbo shooting he was on the road near the
deputies. This was at the time the strikers
were In Lattlmer. Ho testified that ho was
told by the deputies to go Into his houss
as ho was In danger of being shot. On
cross-examination by counsel for the de
fense Engleman said that he thought the
deputies were doing all that they could to
preserve peace and to disperse the strikers
In a peaceable manner wltbout violence. The
witness said ho did not see the strikers
Carrying arms , but admitted that they might
* oi.n liarm nrmnrt.
Daniel Ferry , a grocer ot Hazleton , who
was driving along the road to Lattlmer on
the day of the shooting , testified that he
saw the strikers who were marching and
that they were quiet and orderly. Ho also
saw the shooting at Lattlmor , being near
tbo deputies at the time. Ho heard first
a single shot and saw a striker fall. Then
there was a volley and several fell.
The witness said ho saw a wounded man ,
who was lying on the railroad , get up , but
ho was ehot down again. Ho said ho saw
William Raught , after the shooting became
general , run after the striker as far as the
railroad track and shoot at the striker.
Counsel fop the defense asked the witness
It Sheriff Martin was not in as much danger
of being shot as were the strikers when the
shots were fired by the deputies ?
"No , sir , " replied the witness , "ho wff
quite out of danger. Ho was out of line of
the firing. "
Joe Zappa , ono ot the men wounded at
Lnttlmer , said that when the strikers
reached Lattlmer the sheriff stopped them
and told tbo leaders that they could not go
on to the mine , but the leaders said they
were going and about twenty men pushed
past the sheriff and the shooting commenced ,
August Catskl said the deputies pushed
and prodded the strikers at West Hazleton
nnd forced them out of the road ; that ho
nnd Martin Locka , although some distance
from the other strikers , were followed by
two deputies who struqlc them with their
guns. The wltnces said ho was standing
near the trolley car on which the deputies
embarked to go to LattJrner and ho heard
ono of the deputies , wjion ) ho docs not know ,
say : "Let thorn go unUlfwo get to Lattlmor
nnd then we'll shoot Jjjem. "
At this point the defence agreed to admit
tha following facts In jj'rdor to hurry the
trial along : The meeting of the strikers at
Harwcod ; the presence of the deputies and
strikers at West HazleUoti ; the -fact that the
deputies were armed ; tlio fact that ap
parently tbo strikers were not armed.

Judge W'Jlltam R. Kelly , general sjltrltor
for the receivers of the Union Pacific rail
way system , lolt for St. Louts yes
terday afternoon to attend the pro
ceedings In the Kansas Pacific fore
closure matter before Judge Sanborn.
Judge Kelly said that ho could not
say just what would bo done at St. Lotils
for the reason that 'ho ' had no further In
structions In the matter than the summons
to appear thcro at the time the government's
representatives will make the three motions
above mentioned. Judge Kelly wilt make an
appearance In court for the receivers of the
Union Pacific railway system , the Kansas
division of which Is popularly known ns the
Kansas Pacific railway. It Is not known
here whether or not the reorganized Union
Pacific railroad will be directly represented
at the proceedings.
Ttio announcement that the government
would ask for the postponement ot the rale
until after congrcu should act In the matter ,
nnd would request leave to pay oft the prior
lien and take the property , created quite a
stir In railroad circles hero. Even to those
who have bcc.n keeping close tab on the Kan
sas Pacific proceedings the announcement was
a surprise. President Burl ot the Union Pa
cific Is In Chicago and was there apprised of
the move of the government. Thomas M.
Orr , assistant secretary of the receivers , said
the matter was news to fjlm , and up to noon
ho had received no other Information on the
,
Dee. The prevailing opinion among railroad
men Is that the Union Pacific reorganization
committee n 111 finally decide to raise Its bid
to equal the amount of the principal of the
debt of the Kaiiwis Pacific to the govern
ment. If such decision Is made any tlmo be
fore General Cowln appears before Judge San-
born to make the motions Indicated the fore
closure wks at TopekauKau. , next week will
proceed uninterrupted.
PROPERTY' INCLUDED.
AVhllo the sales are commonly spoken of
as "tho Kansas Pacific foreclosure sale , "
thcro are really four foreclosure sales. The
first Is that of the first mortgage on the
eastern division of the Kansas line , 140
miles of road , The second Is the sale ot the
first mortgage of the middle division of the
Kansas line , 250 miles of road. The third
sale Is that of the government's lien , or the
second mortgage , on both the eastern and
the middle divisions. The fourth sale Is
that known as ' "tho Kansas Pacific con
solidated mortgage. " This mortgage cov
ers the entire Kansas division , but Is sub
ject to the other three mortgages , namely :
the government's lion and the first
mortgages on tlio eastern and on the mid
dle divisions. It Is for the purpose of
Indefinitely postponing the foreclosure sales
In all of these cases that the government's
special counsel has been Instructed to ap
pear before Judge Sanborn at St. Louis.
It Is believed 'that the Union Pacific reor
ganization committee will be represented at
the hearing In court by Wlnslow S. Pierce
of Now York , chairman , ot the Doard of Di
rectors of the reorganized Union Pacific rail
road , and by his assistants , Larry Greer ot
Monr VnrV nnil ( T n. Smith nf Tnncltn. Knn.
But what the representatives of the reorgan
ization committee will do In the matter la
not known hero and may not be known until
the government has made the three mottona
previously enumerated.
HOW IT IS OPHIttATEJD.
Speaking ot the application of the govern
ment for Jeavo to redeem and for a post-
ponement Of the Kansas Pacific sales , a
prominent railroader said : "Tine present re
ceivers are operating the road under the
suit of the third mortgage bondholders ( com
monly called the consolidated mortgage ) . Dy
this means It Is expected that the Immediate
sale of the property will Ibe deferred and
that the government will have moro oppor
tunity to negotiate for a 'belter ' prlco than
has 'been offered by the reorganization ccon-
Tnlttee , which now controls the first mort
gage , and Jo. tbo meantime the 'benefits ' of
the profitable operation of the road , If It
continues to bo profitably managed , will un
der the receiver appointed In the govern
ment suit 'bo ' to the advantage of the govern
ment by way of reduction of Its claim.
'Notices ' of the application to too made next
Saturday hive been served iby telegram upon
the reorganization committee and upon
the counsel of the respective underlying
mortgages. A'mplo ' authority for this action
on the part of the government la conferred
by the act of 'March 3 , 1SS7 , 'which provides
that wihenever In the opinion ot the presi
dent It shall ibo deemed necessary to the pro
tection ot tbo government's Interest In any of
the 'bond-aided ' roads the secretary of the
treasury Is required to redeem or otherwise
clear off the paramount lieu or mortgage
toy paying the sums lawfully duo out of the
"Tho amount which 'will ' oo necessary to
pay tho'first llenholders In th'.s case Is
something over $8,000,000 , the same amount
Which the government would Ijave been com
pelled to pay them had It acquired the title
under the pending sale. The situation of the
government Is regarded by Attorney General
Grlggs , who advised the present course , and
other leading officials , as greatly Improved
thereby , and It Is now expected that Judge
Sanborn under the circumstances will will
ingly consent to a postponement of the sale
To.an Indefinite iporloJ , or at least to a date
sufficiently remote to allow the government
ample tlmo In which to dispose of Its Inter
ests to tbo best advantage. "

"The consolidation of the different com
panies which fro to make up the Chicago &
Northwestern system has been definitely
decided upon. 'Chief ' of these roads are the
Chicago & Northwestern , the Fremont , Elkhorn -
horn ft. Missouri Valley , the Ohlojgo , St.

brace 7'JCG ' miles of road. 'For ' years they

The connection between them has been al

tually taken place. The actions of all have
been directed by ono head. 'Marvin ' Hughltt
Is president of all the companies.
"It Is now proposed , ( however , for financial
reasons , to consolidate all Into one company
and make ono set of securities answer for
all. In carrying out the plan there will bean
an exchange of tbo present securities of
tha smaller companies for these of the

will bo issued to meet the requirements of

"It has not yet been fully determined
whether the consolidation wilt ha carried out
under ono general plan or piecemeal. In any
general plan that might bo adopted It Is
feared flint jealousies might 'bo ' aroused be
tween the holders ot securities of the dlfler-
out companies. Alt such misunderstanding
might , It Is thoug'ht ' , be avoided by taking
up the consolidation of the companies sepa
rately and treating eaeh on Its own merits ,
Should this plan ibo adopted the work ot
consolidation will begin with the Chicago ,
St. Paul , Minneapolis & Omaha , the stock
holders of which may bo osked nt their
next annual meeting to vote on a plan pre
pared for their consideration , That part of
the plan once out ot thu way the Fremont ,
Klkhorn & Missouri Valley would bo taken
up and dealt with In the name nay , and
then would come Die Sioux City & Pacific.
The arrangements for the consoltditlon of
the Omaha have progressed considerably
further than those ot any of the other
roads. "
When the consolldttlon of all the rnads In
the present Ts'ortliuestorn system has been
completed , the plan now under considera
tion \\111 hnvo by no means been consum
mated These consolidations will -bo but the
solldfylng of one l.nk In n great chain
extending over the entire continent from the
Atlantic to the Pacific.
Once thcsD consolidations are out ot the
way the field will. It Is 'believed ' , be clear
for the further consolidation of the North
western and Union Pacific systems. The
two roads -iro ted > iy piaetlcally one. All
affairs relating to through business arc so
arranged as to g-uard the 'Interests and suit
the convenience ot eaeOi , and the final con
solidation of the two roads will In realty
be more a matter of detail than the Intro
duction of uny radical change In the rela
tionships which now exist between them.
AVhcn they become ono In name , as they
nro now In action , the completion ot the
weste-nt end of the chain already alluded to
will have taken place , nnd nothing will re
main ibut to weld It to the eastern end , which
has already been formed ( by the unification
of the Now York Cantral and the I > ako
Shore roids. The Vanderbllt main line \\lll
then extend from New York to San Fran
cisco. It may be that by that time absolute
ownership of the Central Pacific will have
'been ' secured. "Whether It Is or not the pres
ent rights of thu Union Pacific over that line
ore Inalienably secured.

extending ICie period Inlilch whisky In bond
can be regauged from four to eight years.
The contention of .the delegation and Its
prlnclial spokesman , Mr. Harris , was that
both the government and tile distillers would
be benefited by this extension. Mr. Harris
asserted that the government had lost $100-
000,000 In revenue In the Ifst four years from
the Kentucky distillers alone , owing to the
reduction of production Under the old law
from 1891 to 1834 , 101.000,000 gallons had beeti
produced In Kentucky , while from 1801 to
1897 but 61,000,000 gallors bad been produced ,
a loss of $90,000,000. The danger fcom a
bonded period of eight yrors , with a period
for regauglng limited to four years was , fie
cald , ttat the loss by evaporation after tbo
four years , for which the government allowed
nothing , was so gveat that It practically con
fiscated the whisky. The whisky was de
serted by Its owners to escape the deficiency
tax.
