There will bo a meeting at the Administration Arch between the executive committee and F. Harris , treasurer , and F. 13. Pfanmucller , purchasing agent of the company , at noon , when , without n doubt , the final arrangements will be closed up end the exposition will bo In possession of n part of the purchase monoy. The representatives of the company have been In the city for several days , but have kept their business n ro very quiet. They have been In cotisurtatlnn with the mem- hern of the executive committee end mcm- bors of the Hoard of Directors negotiating for the purchase of the buildings. The mat ter was brought up In n meeting of the Hoard of Directors Thursday and there did tint eecm to bn % a dissenting voice In that body. . Cimittilttrr Groun .Itililliinl. The greater portion of the committee were jubilant over the sale and at the close of the meeting expressed themselves to the effect Uiat the big show would take a now lease of life and at once. The fact that at the close of the exposition $50,0)u ) ) was at hand would allay any uneasiness that wan obtaining among creditors and would Blvo the committee something to work upon , Another matter of encouragement to the nicmbcra of the committee was an offer from the Omaha Water Works company to tnko the water plant from their hands at a fair market value. The committee thinks that with the money realized from this the lagoon , may ho filled up and all vestiges of the exposition removed from sight aa though It had never been. The Chicago Wrecking company , upon taking possession of the buildings on thn day the big show conies to a close , will Immediately begin to tear down the struc- turca and prei > are to ship the lumber and other ealvago to Chicago. This company was the OHO that dismantled the World's fair at Chicago and also took down the old Chicago postofflco building. It Is thought by many that the pillars , statuary and other things of the sort may bo utilized by other expositions that will bo hold dur ing the near future. Ho that as It may , the members of the committee are very glad to dispose of the buildings at the price , for the hlghrnt bid last year was only In the neighborhood of $25,000. Under the terms of agreement In prepara tion , the Chicago Wrecking company gets the buildings and the plant , with the excep tion of the water plant , which will bo sold to the Omaha Water company. The matter of Insurance was taken up at the board meeting and It was agreed that Insurance bo taken out on a valuation of $50,000 until November 1. It was stated In the meeting that many private Individuals were unable to get Insurance to hold good until later than Octc-bor 23 , but It was thought that the Insurance on this buildings could be fixed to hold until they went out of the hands of the executive committee. . IC.ivtirMloiiH Arc Ooiuiiieiiiloil. The matter of Burlington excursions came .up In the meeting also and the action of that road waa commended. The an nouncement that the road would run in ex cursions to the big show on September 12 , 13 and 14 was greeted with approval. Mr. Kllpatrlck suggested that as a day attrac tion a competitive drill between members or companies of the First , Second and Third regiments be had some time In October. This also mot with approval nt the hands of the committee. Mr. Penfold said that an endeavor was being made to have a reunion of the three rcglmenta during that month L _ and the matter will be looked up. The Idea P ' PJ Is to have the soldiers here for three days , [ and make the occasion one of great inll- * Itary eclat. The news of the sale of the buildings was received down town with many evidences of satisfaction and the general opinion ex pressed is that the exposition Is saved and that It baa at last been put on Its foot. A . f W pall of gloom has been hanging over the r. i * White City for some time and rumors of the closing up of the show have been rife for several days. With the Injection of new Mood Into Its veins there Is every Indication of success , tbo clouds having assumed a silver lining.

A fonral complaint of kidnaping Antonio Huso baa been made against Deputy Sheriff Harry of Clovelaml. A telegram and a letter biive been sent to the shcrllt of Cleveland apprising him of the abduction of Hose and asking that no returns bo raailo upon the requisition papers In the possession of Harry , and that the prisoner , who has now reached thu Bccno of his alleged crlmo of embezzle ment , bo r"turnod to Omaha forthwith. If the sheriff of Cleveland , after ho receives the letter written by Sheriff McDonald explain ing the case , sees fit to return Hose to Omaha , the probabilities arc that no further notion will be taken In the matter by the attorneys for Hose. On the other hand , If the Ohio sheriff refuses to act upon the suggestion of Sheriff McDonald the aid of the federal court In Cleveland will bo In voked and then Dtcps will bo taken to serve the kidnaping warrant upon Harry and have him brought back hero for trial. When Sheriff McDonald learned that a complaint had been lodged against Harry he wont to the assistant county attorney and the attorneys for Hose and secured an agree ment from them that no further steps be taken In the matter until he had on op portunity to communicate with the sheriff of Cleveland , explain the circumstances sur rounding the Involuntary return of Hose to Ohio and ascertain If ho Is not willing , under ! those peculiar existing circumstances , to re turn Rose to this city. It was then Sheriff McDonald sent the following telegram to the I sheriff of Cleveland : 1 "Do not make return on requisition of 1 Rose. In charco of Harry , until you hear from me by mall. " The following letter was then Indited to the sheriff , which ought to reach him Fri day : ! "Sheriff Cuyahoga County , Cleveland , 0. Dear Sir : In compliance with my telegram ] to you of even date I herewith make you ! acquainted with the conditions connected with the case of A.

Mr. Birry. however , arrested Rcso on the requisition of our covernor and got htm out of the state contrary to the orders of the Judge. "The attorneys for the defendant have filed , a complaint charging Mr. Harry with kid- I naplng and at my solicitation they are with holding further action until I can com municate with you relative to the matter. Under the circumstances I must demand that the prisoner bo returned to this state forth with. Awaiting your reply. I am , very truly yours. JOHN W. M'DONAT.D. Sheriff.

There is a scarcity of feeder cattle at this market and word cornea from the sand hills that agents of commission men are buying cattle in that section for $4 and that a good many cattlemen who are not posted on the market are being caught. The demand for steer cattle at this market was never bettor than at this time and owners of herds are making a mistake by selling to specu lators at the ranches. It la asserted here that the best prices will bo realized by shipping to tblb market , where there la competition and buyers are ou the lookout for good stock. Anything good In the feeder line will bring from $4.50 upward now and there Is no excuse for ranchmen soiling to speculators when there Is a good market here. There la still a gcod demand for feeder sheep and all that will be shipped to thin market can bo sold at a good profit. Com mission men still have large orders for feeder sheep which they cannot fill. llonilH IleliiK Sinned.

WASHINGTON , Sept. 7. While gratifying progress has been made toward the arrange ment of a modus vlvendl temporarily delln- Ing the boundary line between Alaska and British Columbia and the officials concerned In the negotiations are hopeful that success will attend their efforts , It can bo stated that at this moment the negotiations nro still running , and therefore It cannot be said that an arrangement has been reached. H is still possible for the whole scheme to be disarranged , owing to the Injection at this point of some such counter proposal as wrecked the modus thought to have b en arranged by Ambossidor Choato and Lord Salisbury. Slate department officials Insist that while It Is not within reason to expect that any arrangement fair and satisfactory to both parties to the negotiations shall bo entirely one-sided , still It will be found when the result Is made public that the United States has secured a majority of the points In con tention and that the opposition has made concessions of the greatest Importance. But one of the difficulties of the situation Is that the department Is precluded from making that fact officially known out of regard for the obstacles that would probably be placed In the way of the conclusion of the agree ment In Canada and by those In this coun try who are opposed to any sacrifice. LONDON , Sept. 7. The foreign office re ceived dispatches today relating to the ar rangement made between the British charge d'affaires at Washington , Reginald Tower , and the secretary of state , Colonel John Hay , regarding the Alaskan dispute. The facts will probably not bo made public until the marquis of Salisbury has had an oppor tunity to consider the matter. MOUI3 riCVBIl CASKS AT KEY WEST.
