The exhibit space has nearly all been
contracted for and the following list will
give an idea of what may be expected by
those who visit trie Park from November
15 to Decemoer 1:

ing manufacturing concerns of the South
will snow their fabrics in the process of
manufacture and also full linesof the man

Tai Eagle A Phenix manufacturing
company, of Columbus, the largest cotton
mill in t he South, promises the fineHt ex
hibit which their twenty years of experi
ence in making exhibits can suggest. They
have secured a space in the main building
consisting of 1,176 square feet and in the
machinery hall of by* square feet, and ev
ery inch of this large area will be covered
by aoe xhibit finer than any shown at the
New Orleans Exposition. In the machin
ery hull they will have three looms and a
winding machine in operation.
In the field immediately in front of the
grand stand, a quarter-mile 1 bicycle track
has been prepared. It is thirty feet wide,
eliptical in form, and as smooth as a floor.
Inside of this track is a fine drill ground,
which has been harrowed and rolled, and
is perfectly tree from irregularities.
The main entrance is one of the most
attractive features about the grounds. It
is built on the Japanese style of architec
ture and consists of a br lad carriageway
and three footways. On each side rises
a graceful tower surmounted by a flag
bole and across from tower to tower is a
handsome sign bearing the name of the
park. Above the north to wer is an office
building and ticket windows, and aoove
these are the-gateways for pedestrians. The
entire entrance is painted with a body of

New York, Oct. 13—Everything was
favorable for the big demonstration for
Cleveland and Tnurman of the down
town business men th s afternoon, and the
meeting before the sub-treasury in Wall
street and the subsequent procession up
town were fully equal to the hopes of the
managers. The meeting on the sub-
treasury steps was pre-ided over by
Joseph J. Odonohue. When Secretary
Fairchild arose be was welcomed with i
storm of applause.
In the opening of his aadre-ss, Secretary
Fairchild said:
“Business Men of New York: Waen I
have the honor of thus addressing you, I
feel that I am speaking to the whole coun-
try, for ymu represent and are in touch
with the business meu and business of
every part of the union. Wnatever is well
for a man of .Maine, of California, of Min
nesota, of Texas, and of Carolina, is well
unnecewa’y burden upon the industries of
the country has not yet been removed,and
I regret to say that it is not probable it
will be removed at a very early day.
One thing is certain, the Democratic
party in Congress will never agree to any
measure which proposes to prevent the
accumulation of asurplus in the Treasury
by increasing the taxes upon the necessa
ries of life, and as this is one of the prom
inent features of the bill now under con-
sioeration in the Senate, it is not difficult
to predict what its fate will be.
When we reduce tbe revenue, we pro
pose to reduce taxation a'so, and we do not
propose to remove taxes from luxuries and
leave them on clothing, building materials,
medicines, tools of trade and ail other ar
ticles absolutely necessary to the people.
Tbe crowd of listeners contained proba
bly 15.000 perxms, independent < f the
business men's procession. The number
of persons in line is estimated at 30,000.
The substantial platform before the sub
treasury steps contained the invited
guests, and was gorgeously decorated with
fligsand streamers. A large portrait of
President Cleveland and another of Allen
G. Tnurman were suspended on two large
pi lars of the building facing the people.
Before Secretery Fairchild was intro
duced, resolutions were offered and

TR UNMEN’S CONSOLIDATION.
1 An OiiMin^of the Proposed Organization of
a Grand Union.
I Chicago, Oct. 13. —A copy of the articles
j of the proposed federation of engineers,
firemen, switchmen and brakemen, that
are to be submitted to the convention at
Richmond, Va., next week, has been re
ceived here, ’f'he articles provide for the
here to promote what you believe to be
| good goverment, the vast nation meets
with you.and the everage of its complicated
| interests is here to be effected well, or ill,
| by the success or failure of your efforts.
By the force of untoward circumstances.
I the office which I happen to fill is one of
' the most important factors in a country’s
business. It is not right that this should be
the case, and I believe that another term
| of tbe Democratic administration, with
; Congress pledged to support it in wise
! measures, would result in such reforms as
substantially to eliminate the Treasury
Department from your affairs, thus curing
an abnormal condition, which has within
its possibilities great injury to legitimate
business, and a great wrong whenever the
head of that department may be unwise or
unfaithful.
It is not at all necessary that this condi-
of the Macon and Brunswick turned in
*157.000 of the bonds of 1S77. leaving to ma
ture January 1 uext, $2,141,000, which will
: be met by the new issue. 51,900,000; the
sinking fund of 1SS7 aud lS>s. and the pre
miums received ou the sale of the bonds.
A much heavier loss thau that recorded
above was the State's subscription to the
Atlantic and Gulf Railroad. Toe State
took stock iu that enterprise to the extent
of *2,000,000, which was a total loss.
The State's endorsement is now out
standing on the bonds of but two railroads
—the Northeastern, to the amount of *200,
000, which in all probability will be
promptly paid by tbe road when due, and
the South Georgia and Florida Uiilroad,
now a part of the Savannah, Florida and
Western, £440,000, from which also the
State will suffer no loss.
The greatest chapter in Georgia’s rail
road history, however, is furnished by the
Western and Atlantic, which the State
built, and still owns. Perhaps no man
living knows or can compute what that
road has cost the State, but many millions,
representing a large portion to day of the
public debt. It will figure more promi
nently than all other public questions in

The total voting strength of the State is
smiewhere between three and four hun
dred thousand if it could ever be rallied to
the polls. In the State election last Wed

from all but five counties show a total vote
ofI23,05S. A fair estimate of the unre

bring the total to nearly 130,000. This is a
light vote, and unless the Democrats do

Rome, Oct. 12.—The Opinion says it does
not regret the visit of Emperor William to
the Vatican, as it will probably prove the
sincerity with which Italy has adhered to
the promises of Victor Emanuel that tho
Pope should receive King Humbert’s
gutsts with sovereign pomp as the reli
gious head in virtue of the law of guarantee.
The newspapers say the Italian army ex
tends a warm greeting to the Emperor in
behalf of the army.
The Emperor’s reception, both inside
and outside the Vatican, was conducted
with the fullest state ceremonies. Prince
Raspoii received the Emperor arid con
ducted him to the Pope’s chambers. Two
companies of Palatine guards were sta
tioned at tbe entrance of the hall. The
Pope, surrounded by his court, received
b«
saw mills, grist mills, stationary and por
table engines, cotton gins, and the like.
Their exhibit will be a splendid one.
The Frick Company, of Waynesboro,
Pa., makers of the celebrated “Eclipse”
machinery, will also make a complete ex
hibit. They write as follows: “We have
been at great pains to get up a very fine
exhibit and one that will do credit to our

of vour Exposition.”
