WASHINGTON , March 18. ( Special Tele gram. ) Today It was given out at the War department that Adjutant General Corbln would shortly Issue an order directing the troops in the Department of the Missouri , formerly the Department of the Platte , to rendezvous at Omaha during the summer. This order will bring to the Gate City thou sands of people in addition to the soldiers and will prove ono ot the drawing cards of the exposition. Mr. Uosewater has been especially Interested in this cantonment and s the Department ot the Missouri includes Bonio of the crack government troops , their assemblage at Omaha will be appreciated by all lovers of the army. Manager Rosewater of the Department of Publicity and Promotlon'-of the Omaha Ex position was greatly elated today on account of the great amount of work he had accom plished whllo but a day in Washington , hav ing arrived from New York this morning. Everything Is working splendidly in behalf , ot the Indian congress project. Ho held a conference with Captain W. H. Mercer , agent of the Omaha and Wlnncbugo .Indiana , who will have charge of the encampment ; As sistant Commissioner of Indian Affairs Tou- ncr and Colonel Larrabce , and ascertained that the Indian department was actively at 'work ' arranging details for this great ethno logical event. Secretary Bliss of the In terior department was also seen and whllo , emphatically stating that the amount ex pended would have to bo within the appro prlatlon. ho went so far aa ta say the de partment would Issue rations to those In dians who would bo entitled to rations on the reservation. ThU concession was greatly appreciated , as the decision will permit of many mire Indians. Mr. Uosewater alao secured an Immense concession from the Navy department , In that It has agreed to permit the Marine bind to go to Omaha , providing proper In- duccaie'iita or a made to the men. The Fort Omaha military reservation will be turned over to the Omaha Rxpsltlon management during the months beginning Juno and end ing November. The order has heretofore been Issued allowing the use of the grounds for the exposition , but within a short time a new proposltUn will Issue directing that 'tho ' Omaha Exposition authorities take care of the garrison and bo allowed the use of the buildings. A number of persona have Rev. Clmrlos AV. Snvhlxc , founder of. tlio People's church , Omaha , niul anther o'f. "Shots From the Pulpit" and other Looks , writes : "I Imvo reason to l > e- llcvo that the medicines ( Dr. Kay's llonorntor and Dr. Kay's Luuj : Halm ) are valuable to those who need them , as I have fici-n them used with excellent results.

One of the prominent features of the stat uary display la the Art building will be a full size copy of one of the most famous statues in existence , the Winged Victory ot Samothrace. The French commissioner for the exposition , Frederick Mayer of Paris , notifies the exposition authorities that ho has secured a special concession from the French government which will allow a copy of this famous work to be made for the ex position , and he reported that the figure could bo made for 1,175 francs. The matter was laid before the executive committee and Manager Bruce was authorized to accept the proposition. He cabled Mr. Mayor to close the bargain and ship the statue as EOOD as possible. Chairman Paul Charlton of the art committee hopes to make arrangements to keep thla very desirable work of art in Omaha after the exposition closes , but ono offer has already been made by a museum in another city to take the statue for $200 , and the contest promises to develop some sharp competition. The Winged Victory is ono of the most famous ancient statues which has ever been discovered. It was unearthed in the valley ot Samothraco in 1SC7 by a representative of the Preach government. It was in frag ments and was removed to the Louvre and put together. About eight yean later the gigantic pedestal -was discovered and this was also removed to the Louvre , whore peiS- eatal and figure were restored to their orig inal pcsitlcns as far as possible. Tbo ped estal represents the stony prow of a galley , below Mtilch sea waves are represented b > sculpture. The colossal figure , more than double life slzo , towers above this massive and lofty hulk. The statue Is badly muti lated , but U 'shows a fully draped female figure which has alighted on the prow of a ship , sweeping down with lightning speed , the powerful form , with rushing drapery , seeming to force a way for thin Imposing goddess of victory. The dainty wings ot tbo goddess are extended and might and power are delineated In every line of the fluuro and drapery. The flguro Is of Parian marble , and the exquisite nicety with wflilch every detail Is worked out marks this as one of tbe most remarkable examples of the great genlua of the Hellenic sculptors which has over been discovered. Careful calculations byantlquarlans places tbe origin of this flguro In the third century , B. C. CKASSII'VIXO HIS M.V.VV K.YHHUTH. SiiirrIii ( % nd < Mit Til j lop " \VorkliiR on n HlK Contract. Superintendent Taylor of the Bureau of Agriculture. Horticulture , Forestry and Irrigation Is engaged in classifying the many exhibits which belong In thin depart ment and arranging for the location of the displays. Ho has decided to locate the forestry display In the big Transportation and Agricultural Implement building which Is bolng erected on the north tract , as < lilu la the only building where a sufficient space can bo eciured without Interfering with other exhibits. The Oregon exhibit , accord ing to Mr. Dosch of Portland , who was here early In tlio week , will include ono "stick" sixty feet In length and five feet square , in tended to show the plze of the lumber ob tainable In that prolific section ot the uni verse. To accommodate such largo exhibits will require a great deal of open space and this can only bo obtained In the building re ferred to.

ActlvpWork in Arknu n * . Secretary W. D. Mathews of the Arkansas Exposition commission wrUcs to President Wattles that the executive committee of the commission ) has been hard at work since Its return from Omaha and now sees daylight ahead.

'Architect Glbbs Is now working on the plans and .Mr. Mathewa says they will bo forwarded to Omaha In a few days , with photographs of the original man sion. iMr. Mathews says the member * of the executive committee of the commission will spend the next month In traveling about the state arousing the people to the Importance of the exposition and securing a flno collec tion of exhibits. Pennsylvania Society Mcetlnnr.

Major Clarkson reports that the representa tives of the Pennsylvania society are the only members of the many state societies formerly In existence In Omaha who have favored him with a response to his Invita tion for co-operation In providing entertain ment for visitors from other states. Ho desires to have all members of any of these societies call upon him and assist htm In reviving these organizations. Weir York Hiirlior in Miniature.

OPPOSE THE STATUARY PLAN Members of the County Board Avarss to Buying Sculptor's Work. COMMISSIONERS EXPRESS THEIR OPINIONS Will Not Vote to > A Blnt the Pnrk Hoard in AciiulrliiK 'Permanent ' Group * for 'the ' uiitl Parks. There la nothing to Indicate that the mem bers of the Board of County Commissioners will change their minds and vote to ap propriate the eum of $3,000 to be used In the purchase of nlno pieces of statuary for the exposition grounds. Whllo they have not formally rejected the request , they have offered a resolution , which has been referrred to the committee of the whole for considera tion. This resolution Is In the nature of a rejection , and If its adoption Is rejected by the committee , the whole matter will thus bo disposed of. "In the Interest of economy , " said Com missioner Ostrom , "I don't see how we can appropriate the sum of $5,000 , or any other amount , to buy statuary to be placed on the exposition grounds. Aside from the question of coats , there are several other reasons why we should not vote $5,000 to assist in buying these figures. In the first place , they are purely park attractions , and if the members of the Board of Park Commission- era want them , let them pay for them out of their funds. We tave quite an amount of exposition money on hand , but wo are going to need about all of It In preparing our county exhibit and maintaining < lt during the exposition. After thi fruit and vegetable season opens , wo will have to replace the exhibits at least once each week. This can not bo done for nothing. In addition to this , wo have got to help In maintaining police regulations on the ground by paying our proportion of the salary of the guards. "It the exposition people are so anxious for the statuary , as It baa been Intimated that they are , why don't they appropriate $10,000 and let us pay an adltlonal $5,000 for the maintenance of the big show ? I don't think that I shall vote to appropriate money for statuary. " Speaking of the proposition to buy stat uary. Commissioner ! tlarto said : "It Is too much money. They are making figures and groups of figures for tbo purpose of orna menting the buildings ; on the exposition grounds , and they are not paying anything like what is asked , .for these nine pieces that It is proposed to sell to us. If the prlco was anything within 'reason , I might vote for an appropriation. At this time I can't see how I can agree to put ono-thlrd of $15,000 Into nine piece * of cement. It's too much money. " Chairman Klerstcad said : "Unless I tbange my mind , anil , at this time I can't see any reason for , so. doing , I shall vo'e a gal net tbo pro posit tea to buy thla statuary. I want to bo liberal , bijt I don't think that wo should pay any 'man the profit that this party who makes the statuary wants. " Commissioner Hofeldt said : "Statuary Ik pretty and it is attractive , but I don't see how I can bo a party ] to paying $15,000 for nlno pieces that can'lio made In a month and at a cost of not more than $500. " Commlsslcoer Hector said : "We are will ing to help the expedition with all of the proceeds of the $100,000 of beads , but we want to put the money wtiero It will do theme mo t gosd. Wo want to advertise the otate and the county and I think that the best way to do so Is to make an exhibit of the resources of this locality. It we have moro money than wo need , we can , turn It' over to bo used In helping to pay the actual ex penses of the exposition. If the exposition management wants the statuary , why dco't It go on and buy it. It has done so In other Instances. " Kndnrneiueut of I hiIloniPonathUtl. . The last number of the American Homo- opathlit , published at Cleveland , 0. , COG- talna tbe following editorial bearing on the meeting of the Homeopathic institute In Omeba : "Wo are assured by Dr. W. H. Hanchett and other members of the Omaha committee that no fear need bo entertained but that the capacity of the hotels ot that city will be ample for all the demands of the Institute. There may bo some of our mem bers who bavo been to Europe a few times but have never been west of the Mississippi river until they went to the institute at Denver and who , therefore , have had the thought that Omaha is a small town on the outskirts of civilization. A cursory read ing of some of the literature which Is being issued by the exposition company , after de ducting a toir margin for exuberance of spirits , will convince anyone that it Is a largo city and that the exposition is second only to the World's fair ; and that even here , in many details , it surpasses Uio fair. At any rate it will be a beautiful picture and one which no good American can afford to miss. It will bo well , however , not to de fer engaging rooms until the best rooms are taken. It costs but a postal card. " One 'North Dnkotn Bounty. Manager Llndsey of the Department of Ways and Means haa received from , Vice President Lounsberry of Fargo , N.

Comptroller Wcstberg says that when thta is accomplished bo will be able to account In detail for every cent of receipt or expenditure In all funds. Ho contends that the new account should have been kept from the beginning , as the present flj'stem U exactly as though the accounts ot a depart ment etoro were kept on ono general ledger , which gave no Information In regard to tbe relative proflta ot the various departments. As the books now atand they nhow a certain aggregate balance In a couple of hundred special funds , but there la nothing to nhow how this la dlitrlbuted or what funJfl are short. U will require a couple of months to bring the account to date , and then tbo regu lar force of bookkeepers can rarry It along. < ; ! ( fiftlliiK Ciooil Itfliirim.

It will not provide for clcanling all the allejs. but It will go farther than twice the amount has ever gene before. The streets are be bit ? cleaned this spring for less than half what It has previously ccst , and thU Li largaly duo to the fact that the department linn re fused to employ men or teanw that were rot capable of doing a full day's work. The big wagon boxes have also been made compul sory , with the result that the refuse la gath ered and hauled nwoy with unusual rapidity. IMCilSO.V.U , I > .VKAiHAl'IIS. L. n.
