All of th general agents of tho Union
Pacific system east of Omaha met last
week In Chicago. This mooting was nrc-
, sided over by B. L. Wlnohell, director of
traffic. This year's meeting was ono of
the largest attended and most successful
gatherings the representatives ever had.
Especially for this occasion Mr. Kath
rens, who Is building tho Yellowstone
park exhibit for tho Union Pacific sys
tem at tho Panama-Pacific exposition,
was Invited to come to Chicago and tell
tho general agents of tho progress of tho
exposition In general and of the Yellow
etone park exhibit of the Union Pacific
In particular. With referenco to the
actual conditions of tho exposition up to
the date of his departure from Sun Fran
cisco, Mr. Kathrcns said:
As to its physical progress, It Ib diffi
cult for ono who has not teen the site
with his own eyes to riullze the extraor
dinary amount of work that has been
done. It Is easy to say that a tract of
lund a little mora than two miles long
nnd halt a inllo wide had been, within a
space of nine months, tiansformed from
matsh and open water to tho beginning
of a wondei fully beautiful slto thut men
phraseology will not and cannot convoy
tho Impression that a glanco at the lunJ
would give. In that snort space of tlmu
about one bquare mile of land has beon
reclaimed from a condition llttlo better
than a marsh, leveled, drained and
sewered, with water pipes, lit o service
pipes, gas and electric condultB installed,
roads laid out and partially built, vast
spaces planted to lawns which are now
emerald green and much progress made
In setting out forests of trees and thou
sands upon thousands of plants.
Jn addition to this tho building, which
only started five months ago, has now
progressed so far that the general out
line and vast sizes of tho exhibit palaces
are plain to see. one building the Ma
chinery Palace, tho largest building ever
constructed of wood has been completed
and three others are approaching comple
tion. It Is Impossible for mo to Elve you
any idea of tho gigantic scale upon which
these buildings aro planned. One is deeply
Impressed, almpst to tho point of awe,
by their size, oven in their present con
dition. All building work Is being carried on
on a carefully prepared schedulo which
calls for the completion of all the ex
hibit palaces on July 1, 19M. I am In
formed thut this schedule has been a lit
tle better than kept, the entire work be
ing between 6 per cent and 6 per cent
ahead of the fixed dates. There Is no
reason whatever to doubt the statements
made to me by exposition officials that
these exhibit palaces will be finished and
ready for the Installment of exhibits even
before July 1, 1914. At about the same
time the landscape gardening will be fin
ished, as will also the work upon the
mllo truck, which Is a feature of the
live, stock department.
I have been given certain facts which
seem significant to me and which I will
repeat as they were told:
A comparison is made with 'the work
of getting the St. Louis exposition ready.
At a corresponding time In the prepara
tions for that exposition that is, about
ono year before the gates opened the St.
Louis exposition had received applica
tions for a little less than 8 per cent of
their available exhibit space. Every
square foot of available space at the
Panama-Pacific International exposition
was, on December 1, 25 per cent over
applied for. Ono year before the St.
Louis exposition opened Its management
had received but one application for a
iviiieesnlon. On December 1. 1913. the
sixty-three acres of the Panama-Pacific
site devoted to amusements and conces
sions had been completely sold out and
thero remain moro than ti.000 unfilled ap
plications. One year before the Ht. Loul
exposition opened it had received ussur
ances of participation from but twelvo
American states and from but one for
eign nation. At this time the Panama
Pacific International exposition has re
ceived assurances of participation from
thirty-five American states and from
thirty-two foreign nations.
The estimates ot the amount of money
which will be represented Inside the ex
position grounds on the date that the
gates open range within narrow limits,
the lowest being f70.CGO.000 and tho high
est $SO,CKO,O0o. This covers the cost of
putting up the exhibit palaces und the
work on the grounds hbout J12.000.0CO, the
Investment of tho concessionaires, be
tween 110.000.000 and I12,u,uxi, the cost or
erecting some sixty-five stato and na
tional pavilions and the cost ot producing
und Installing exhibits.
A main feature which l mourn not
omit to mention is that within the last
two weeks the exposition management
has come to a satisfactory understand
ing with the San Francisco hotels, an
overwhelming majority of which have
united In an agreement not to Increase
their rates for 1915. and will clinch this
agreement by Issuing through tho ex
position bureau of Information a hotel
rato schedule. This schedule will be
printed within the next few weeks and
will contain tho rate thut will be
charged In 1315 by about SO per cent of
the hotel In the city."
