Cleveland Sends Representatives to
Learn From Pittsburg.
A CRITICISM ON THE EXPOSITION
Ohio Politics Comes in for a Share in Their
Deliberations.
tL ATICTOEI PEESAGED FOE FOEAKEE
Mayor George W. Gardner, of Cleveland;
John C. Covert, editor of the Cleveland
Xcader, and L. E. Holden, banker and pro
prietor of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, vis
ited Pittsburg yesterday as a committee ap
pointed by the Board of Industry and Im
provement of the Forest City to inspect
expositions, with a view to the establish
ment of an Exposition in Cleveland. They
registered at the Hotel Anderson, and spent
both afternoon and evening in the big build
ings, on the river bank. They met and
talked with Mr. "William McCreery and
other members of the Board of Directors.
Hayor Gardner teas seen at his hotel, and
in the course of a long talk, he said: "Our
Board of Industry is an organization of
business men. It might be called a com
mittee o! 100. Its aim is to promote the wel
fare of Cleveland. "We have been ap
pointed to visit expositions, study plans
and methods, and advise the board on the
proposal to establish an exposition in our
"city. I think we will recommend the car
rying ont of the project. After we deter
mine to hold an exposition, we must then
decide upon location. Another matter to
be considered by us is whether it would not
be advisable to combine an agricultural ex
hibit with the exhibition of manufacturing
and mercantile wares. We have not got
that far vet
"Hike the Pittsburg Exposition very
-well, but it is not as fine as the one in De
troit. Your buildings cost more than theirs,
but I don't like the shape of your main
building. The Mechanical Hall here is a
splendid structure and worthy of study, but
it seems to me that the exhibits made in it
are not truly representative of the products
for which Pittsburg is noted. I have no
doubt tbat the managers will do better next
year. I am sorry that we cannot remain
here longer. J would like to have lime to
call upon some of your Pittsburg people,
whom I know as visitors to the fishing re
sorts on Lake Erie, in regard to a project a
few of us have concerning Ballast Island.
For several years about ten of us in Cleve
land have had a fishing club there. Pi ve of us
own the island, and we have spent many
thousands of dollars in improvements. "We
propose to increase the membership to about
50, and admit the new members at a very
low figare We want to receive a number
of Pittsburg and Cincinnati gentlemen.
Ballast Island is about in the center of the
bass .fishing ground in the spring and fall.
It is always cool there in the summer, and
is a beautiful place to take women and
children. The Western Canoe Association
meets there everv summer. The island con
tains about ten acres there are a dozen cot
tages, a boat bouse, ice house, steamer land
ing and other improvements.
"The chief political topic before our peo
ple is municipal reform. Our city depart
ments are managed by boards, partly elec
tive and partly appointive, where there is
little responsibility and continually clash
ing between rival boards. The Mayor is
held responsible for honest and economical
government, but he really has little power.
Every day I see where money could be saved
to the city of Cleveland, if I could do it.
THE MATOK EESPOXSIBLE.
"What we propose is the Federal plan. The
Mayor shall be the responsible head of the

There is plenty of Ready-made Clothing in the market that is dear at any price, and
many men hesitate to buy a ready-made suit because they or their friends have been swindled
by unreliable dealers. Our policy is not only to secure a customer but to HOLD him
by giving him the best that money can buy, and ensuring him a correct fit and correct
style.

Our stock for this fall and winter is
the largest ever exhibited by
' ' any retail house in the
country, but, look as
you will, you can't
find a single trashy
garment. We handle none
but thoroughly good makes,
and these we sell at prices that have
made the name Kaufmanns' a
household word at every
fireside within a hun
dred miles of Pitts
burg. But it would be
a futile task indeed, to at
tempt a description of our
ttatchless inducements of fine Fall

must be seen to be appre
ciated. Will you call?

government and shall have power to ap
point and remove the heads of departments.
If be be a corrupt or inefficient man he will
last for only one term. Each department
skall be run by one man, who shall be re
sponsible to the Mayor and appoint his sub
ordinates. That is somewhatlike the Chicago
plan. In your city I find hat the Mayor is a
mere figure head and that you hare a few
men who run everything. Our best people
favor the reform, but the politicians are op
posed to it. It is a lively issue in the elec
tion of our legislators.
"I feel satisfied that Foraker will be re
elected. That Halstead business about
Campbell willnotmakemuchdifierence. Our
registration in Cleveland has been remark
ably light, showing indifference. That is
the only thing I am afraid of. The Demo
crats are making strenuous efforts to carry
the Legislature. If they do succeed Senator
Payne, it is generally understood, will not
be a candidate for re-election.
A. FEEBLE OLD MAS.
"He is a man for whomJT;have always had
a high regard as a citizen, but he is grow
ing old. Within the past two years he has
failed rapidly. He presided at the banquet
which we gave to the Pan-American dele
gates, and when he arose to speak his voice
could hardly be heard.
"I met and talked with nearly all of the
delegates on that occasion. They are
taking a lively interest in American man
ufactures, but the trouble is that they have
too much to see in a short time. At Cleve
land they were much interested in ship
building. Fortunately we had four steam
ers on the ways, in various stages of con
struction. When they learned that those
vessels were 300 feet long, 50 feet wide, with
16-feet draught, were being built of steel,
would carry 3,000 tons of freight, and were
to be constructed in 60 days, they were as
tounded. Many of the delegates remained
over to inquire further.
"I think your people here would be wise
not to attempt to take the visitors around
the city much, or to the various manufac
turing establishments. The best plan
woula be to prenarean exhibit'of your chief
manufactures in the Exposition building."

St. Louis, October 19. The fact that
setting up a faro game is a felony under the
Missouri law appears to have no
terror for blooded sports. Word has
been passed along the line that
practical immunity could be obtained in
St. Louis, and so the New Orleans sports
who were left without a home by the recent
en iorcement of the law there, and the Cin
cinnati and Chicago gamblers who found the
field too crowded in their respective cities,
have been invited to come to St. Louis, and
they have come.
Six faro banks are now running full
blast, and 20 poker games. The police
claim to be doing their utmost to suppress
gambling, and yet never since the passage
of the Johnson law has the city been so full
of gamblers.

shall is dead. She had the reputation of
being the handsomest woman who visited
the racing tracks at Sheepshead Bay

occasions, by reason of her jewelry and
Worth gowns. She had been ill for some
months, of Bright's disease, and died in
great pain. She left a will returning dia
monds said to be worth many thousands to
a wine merchant of this city, who gave them
to her.
She gained notoriety about five years ago
by being connected with the robbery of
$12,000 in bank bills from a rich Staten
Islander who was visiting her home in
Seventh avenue. She left a fortune esti

only objection to a silk hat Is their tendency to
roughen, the Kersey is the very very thing, as
