A WORLD’S FAIR 1 1892 . Foiir-linndredtli Anniversary of the Discovery oi' America. Important Action Taken by the Citizens of New York City. Successful meetings of the Chamber of Commerce, the Mayor’s committee and the Spanish-American Association took actipa in New York city to formulate plans for holding a World's Fair there ia 1892 to cele¬ brate the four-hundredth anniversary of the discovery of America. At 3:15 o'clock the gentlemen who had been invited to confer with the Mayor began by to as¬ semble in the Governor’s room, and 3:30 there was hardly standing room. Chairs to the number of ilO had been provided, but these were inadequate to accommodate all those present. It w as a big gathering, and it was unani¬ mously orld in has favor of having in ISM the_ in biggest__fair New 1 ork. the w ever seen their A!1 the banks were represented Railroad by Presi¬ Presidents and directors. dents were as abundant as at a meeting Mer¬ of the Trunk Line Association. chants abounded as if the full roll of the Chamber of Commerce were present to answer to their names. There were workingmen representing national as many trades and industries as a conven¬ tion of the Knights of Labor or the American Federation of Labor. There were represen¬ tatives of all the industries, professions, York city. businesses and trades of New They were all there, the heads of firms, the men whose names are as well known in London and San Francisco as they are in New York, Billions of dol lars of capital were present in the men who control the railroads, the steamboats, the real estate, the hotels, the manufactures and the trade of the city. The assemblage proved the unanimity and enthusiasm of all the citi¬ zens of New York about the "World’s Fair tvjj'ch is to be held in 1892. The Mavor ij opening the discussion on the subjec{ ot the proposed quadri-centec nial in 1.S92, said: “I have invited you to this meeting in or¬ der that you, as representative citizens of this great metropolis, may consider the de¬ sirability of commemorating the dis¬ covery of this continent, by holding an international exposition in this, the chief city of the West.orn Hemisphere. This event which we intend to commemorate Is the discovery of a new world. Its Importance is not to be measured by a mere addition to tho sum of observable geographical in knowledge; its fruits are nation the happiness and prosperity of a which has maintained free institutions while it has acquired boundless wealth, and ill the general in or . cement which tho success of one - . . emmens has wrought in the condi¬ tion oi mankind throughout the world. “The city of New* York is the capital of this new* world, whose achievements are but a promise of a still more glorious future, and in* this, the most powerful awl populous of the cities of America, I think it eminently desirable that wo celebrate the triumph will of Columbus by a World’s Fair, which eclipse all former industrial unanimously expositions.” made Mayor Grant Chairman was then William M. Spear Permanent and Secretary. Mr. Charles G. Haven suggested that the name of the committee be tho Committee for the International Exposition of 1892. The matter of the appointment of committees was immediately taken up. Controller Myers offered the following: It should be Whereas, is fitting that there a suitable recognition of the four-liundredth anniversary oi' the discovery of this conti¬ nent, such anniversary occuringin 1892; and Whereas, Public opinion indicates that au international exposition will most satisfy and tr jet tho requirements of the occasion and fLfford a desirable opportunity for foreign countries to testify to good will in our nation¬ al regard; and Whereas, In its location, through through its which it holds the key to commerce, many nnd varied industries, through its resources of capital, through its unlimited facilities for the through* reception and entertainment of visitors, of its libcre.'ity in tho promotion ail that constitutes national success, through its aelmowledged supremacy as the metropolis of the Western world, New* York is indisputably the nroper site whereupon should such an international exposition be held; therefore, be it of this Resolved, That it is the sense meet¬ ing that an city international of New York exposition in tho shall 1892 be held in the year and that ail present do pledge themselves to devote their best energies to the promotion of the success of such exposition: and Resolved, That a general committee of twenty be appointed by tho Mayor, whoso •* duty shall be to formulate detailed plans for organization of such an exposition and by the re¬ port at a public meeting to be called chairman when the committee shall be ready to Charles report. S. Smith offered the follow ing sub¬ stitute for the closing resolution: Resolved, That the chairman namely,oneonfinance, appoint the following legislation, committees, permanent organi¬ one on one on zation and one on site and buildings, each the to consist of twenty-five members; and that chairman be allowed such reasonable time as he deems proper to select and name such committees. Mr. Smith’s motion for the carried appointment unani¬ of the four committees was mously. The Mayor and Secretary Spear were made ex-officio members of the four committees, and the meeting adjourned sub¬ ject to the call of the Chair. The New York Chamber of Commerce, at its meeting the same afternoon, appointed a committee of sixty memberst o co-operate with the National. State and city authorities in regard to taking measures for the holding of a World’s Fail* in 1892. CAVE-IN OVER A MINE, Many Foundations Cracked—An Ex¬ plosion Causes Loss of Life. A cave-in occurred in Hyde Bark, Penn.. over a vein of the Central mine. Ovo six acres of ground W were affected, and the Fifth Ward public school build ing was badly damaged. Fully a dozen private residences have cracked foundation walls and jammed doors as a result of the cave-in. Large fissures may be seen in the earth,-and in the centre of the affected dis¬ trict the earth has settled fully ten feet. The damage cannot be estimated, Within the mine six chambers were affected by the cave-in, and the miner-and their laborers are unable to proceed with their work. During the afternoon, wfciie a number of men were removing the rock and coal from the chambers closed by the cave-in of the morn¬ ing, the lamp of one of the laborers ignited The mine gas. and a frightful explosion Roberts fol¬ lowed. John Williams and Robert were killed, and four others were frightfully burned. THE SUMMER OIKL.

There is, c< n sequcntly, a much greater difficulty in passing them out of the hands of the clipper without detection. The world is casting about for cheap raw material for paper.
