Commissioner Klchardson reports that the Interest In Ohio concerning the exposition lias been steadily growing and the manu facturers and other lines have manifested a doalro to take an active part in the move ment to have the state officially represented. Manager Ilosowator of the Department of Publicity and Promotion is greatly pleased ot the success ot the effort to add Ohio to the list of states which will bo officially represented at the exposition , and said that the creation of this commission will give an opportunity for the collection of funds from the largo cities In Ohio which have already manifested a desire to take action of this kind , provided joint action could be secured.

President Yo.it TcllH of tlic Arrimut'- iiicntN for mi Uxhllilt. Casper E. Yost , president of the Nebraska : and Iowa Telephone companies , has Just re turn tl from an extended trip to Chicago , TJow York and Boston , While In the east lie made arrangements for an exhibit of tele , phone apparatus for the Electricity building at the Trausmlssluslppl Exposition hero this flummer. In speaking of his trip to The Bee ho eald : "One findsa great deal ot Interest In the exposition throughout the east. It is really surprising the number of Inquiries one hears regarding the exposition. In all the big cities and on the railway trains I lean ! many Inquiries and much discussion concerning it , and there seema to bo a gen eral desire to attend and participate in the exposition. "Tho Bell Telephone company has decided that It will exhibit at the Traasmlsslsalppt ( Exposition a complete set of Instruments showing the first telephone inventions that were used , the gradual Improvements made , and th later growth and development of telephone Instruments. This , I think , will provo to be ono of the most interesting exhibits at the exposition. The progress made In telephone work from the earliest inventions will bo represented by lines and Instruments la charge of a competent at tendant. "The long distance telephone people have greed to place their lines between Omaha and Waihlngton at the disposal ot the expo sition directory on the day of the opening of the exposition. Arrangements will bo , made for through service from the expos- ! | ' tlpn grounds to the White House at Wash ington , and communication may be had be tween tbo offlr ra of the exposition dnd President MeK.nley. ' "The question of putting in a telephone plant at the exposition grounds to render service among the various buildings and from the grounds through our local exchange to outside points will bo taken up at once , and In all probability some decision will be reached at an early date. There la nothing definitely decided about the matter as yet. The exposition directory and our company will take up the matter at once. "In the exhibit to bo made at the exposi tion , there will bo ono of the latest and most improved switchboards ever built. At the close of this exposition this switch beard will bo sent to Sioux City , la. , and placed In the local exchange there. A new switch board has also been ordered for the South Omaha exchange , and -will probably be put in place there about July L" I'UEPAUIXO THIS T.IMC3 FOR FISH. t Government Gottlnnr .TtH Aqnnrlum Into Condition for Vlnltom. The machinery for the live fish exhibit to be made by the fish commission In the Government building has arrived and is be ing Installed lo a room constructed under neath the floor at the northwest corner of the Government building. This machinery consists mainly ot an ice making plant , which Is used for cooling the water In which Ibe live fish are displayed. The plant Is capable of turning out four tons of ice In each twenty-four hours. In addition to the Ice plant there Is an electric pump capable of raising 1,200 gallons of water per hour. This pump Is used In connection with the salt water supplied to the tanks for the ocean fish. fish.A A large tank having a capacity ot 10,000 gallons Is being erected beneath tbe floor of the building near the machinery room. The salt water will be stored ta this tank and the electric pump will raise it to a 1.000- gallca tank placed above tbe fish exhibit , from whence It will naes through pipes to the glaw tanks containing the fish. About 100- 000 gallons of salt water Is used per day , the water being made to pass through the cir cuit of tanks again and again , passing through a filter after leaving the fish tanks , la order to remove all foreign matter , and being charged with air before reaching the fish tanks again. The exhibit of salt water fish will contain many different varieties. About the time the fish are wanted a vessel of tbo fish commis sion will make a special trip to some point along the Atlantic or gulf coast to bo here after determined end a big seine will bo let down Into the depths. When It Is hauled In Its contents will form the major portion of the exhibit ot salt water fish at the ex position. No ono can foresee what mon strosities this haul may Include. Tdere may bo a largo proportion of freatos of nature , or there may bu an utter absence of unusual forms. At any rate , there will be a variety of salt water fish which will form a source of amusement and a means of Information to exposition visitors. Ten tanku are set apart for the salt water fish , and In addition to these there will be shown 'tho ' apparatus and the methods used by the department to propagate cod and one or two other varieties of salt water fish , with 'tho ' plant In full operation. Nt > michlnery will bo required for the tanUs ot fresh water In which will be shown the \ various varlo'.lcs of fish which Inhabit the fresh water streams and lake/i / of this country. There are flftoen of these tanks , and the water will bo supplied to them from the clty ( mains , after passing through cooling cello and filters. In addition to the fifteen tanlos there will be two large , oval pools , each about thirty Inches deep and about ten feet in the long diameter. A number of stuffed figures of sea lions , vfa \ and other specimens wcro received at the Government building in 'the ' rame car with the machinery , and these will be placed in position within a few days.

CONTROL OF THE DISORDEKLY ELEMENT Effort * to Sccnrc n l.lxt of Those IVlio Come Under the il'urrtciv of the It ill i.Are Already It Is the purpose of the Board of Fire nnd Police Commissioners to ro-eatablUh the I system of having fines imposed once a month I upon the keepers and inmates of disorderly houses at the earliest convenient date. The census of this class of the city's population , which Is being taken by police ofilcor.s under thci direction ot Chief Gallagher , la as yet . confined to the proscribed' district. It la stated , however , that before the roundup Is | finished all houses scattered over the city outside ot the district which are retreats of a questionable character twill bo placed on . the . list , together with their keepers and ' | the people who frequent them. As a rcault of two days' work among the houses of the district the census takers have returned the names of about 225 persons who are defined as being under tbo ban of the fine system , and the record Is not nearly complete yet. Chief Gallagher estimates , that in tbo proscribed district alone there j i are ; about 300 who will be compelled to pay monthly fines. Although he doa ? not at 11 tempt to estimate the number at assignation houses outaldo ot the districts , nor the num ber of people who frequent tbeso places , it is admitted by policemen In the depaitmrnt who know that the city is honeycombed and catacombcd by them. Commenting upon this flno system yester day a prominent attorney said that If the Board ot Klro and Pollco Commissioners at tempted to exempt the owners of property Ica.sed ifor Immoral purposes , cither In or out of the proscribed district , trouble would follow which might bring to a test the validity of the system. INCREASES CLANCY'S WORK. It Ifl understood that the first nissessment of fines will cover this month , and Clerk Clcticy of the pollco court la arranging to receive the money. He his asked Slayer Moorra to turn ltd him with a deputy to handle this branch of the work , asserting tfaat his regular duties are too ouerm ? to warrant him In attempting to take up the extra work. There are on an average 700 cases disposed of In police court every nuntti. Many of them are felony CBSM , In each ot which , according to the policy Clerk Clancy is following In the pursuit ot his duties , the record Is full and complete for the flwt time In the history of tbo court. The clerk Is keeping a complete record of the bills of costs In these cases In order to guard against ft possijj controversy letween the city and the cou'rfTy wUen It comes to their f.tial set- tlcment. All of tbe clerk's time Is therefore occupied wlh : tbe business of his cfilce aa It now stands. Captain Haze 1s authority for the state ment that It will be possibly four months before all of the questionable characters are finally brought within the palo of the fine eystetn. Ho thinks that If 100 pay fines the first month , the department will tavo ac complished wonders. It will ba hard work to get them all Into court. Although these In the proscribed dUtilct will cause uo trouble , other * , however , will contest the pollco authority , and from this source trouble Is expected. Ono good effect that tbe fine system will bavo upon tbe morab of the city , Captain Haze thinks , U tint It will prompt many now secretly consorting to stop rather thaa bo exposed by being dragged Into police court systematically and rtned.
