THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH, .SATURDAY, JANUARY 11, 1890. "TflE CAPITAL'S BID. Washington's Claims for tho World's Fair Set "Forth at Length. THE PLACE FOR A BIG SHOW. Location Correct, Hotel Accommodations Unsurpassed, and IT SHOULD XE A NATIONAL AFFAIR JUVENILE EAOE WAS. Washikgtojt, January 10. Tho second heariuc on the selection of the site for the Quadro-Centerinial 'Exposition was held this morning in the ladies' reception room in the Senate Ming of the Capitol, when the claims ofthecttyof Washington were presented. There were present of the committee Sena tors Hiscock (Chairman), Hawler, Harwell, "Wilson (ot low), Colquitt, Hansom and Veit. Mr. Douglass, one of the District Com missioners, stated the order in which the arguments would be presented, and closed his remarks by saving that it it should be concluded to bold the Exposition elsewhere than in the national capital the citizens of the District of Columbia would make every exertion, by money or otherwise, to make it a magnificent success. A PERMANENT SHOW. Mr. Anderson, Secretary of the National Board of Promotion of the Three Americas Exposition, opened tlie arguments. He said he represented a. committee of citizens Jrom all the States and Territories, who, under ine name ot a Uoard ot Promotion, nave been acting in the matter for the last three or four years. He summarized the provis ions or the bills introduced by Senators Gorman and Faulkner, and arcued that the building to be erected for the fair should be permanent, and should be under Govern ment control. It should be in the nature of a museum, free of charge, and not an ex hibit of perishable property. The two leading features of the exposition were: First, to commemorate a great historical event the discovery of America by Colum bus; and, second, the commercial idea which might be called the three Americas trade movement The details of the plan were to be left to a Government Commission. He simply advocated the general proposition and idea, which he thought was entertained by the people at large, that the expenses of the exposition should be undertaken by the nation. It was evident that the whole'peo ple were ready and anxious to celebrate the great event, and thought that the national capital was the only proper site. KUJIEEOUS BEASONS. The reasons for selecting "Washington were numerous. Washington was the city of the nation, and ot all the cities of the country. It was the city of St. Louis, Chi cago and New York; by which he meant that the people of those cities had more con trol in regulating the affairs of the District of Columbia than its own residents had. It was a truly representative American city; it was composed of inhabitants of all the States ant Territories; it was governed by the people of the United States through their representatives in Congress. There would be no waste in naving the exhibition here, because whatever buildings would be erected for it wonld be needed for all time for governmental purposes. It was evident that the Ex position would have to go to the Government, or else the Government would have to go to the exposition, and he thought it more dignified that the exposi tion should come to the seat of government. There was in the heart of the city a park more accessible than aty park in any citv in tbe world extending from the Capitol to the "Washington monument. This nark in cluded 300 acres, and could be increased by 700 acres more from the Potomac flats. "Wharves could be established on the Potomac rirer, where exhibits could be landed from all parts of the world. A BIG BOABDEiG HOUSE. As to the hotel accommodations, be said that there was no city in tbe world so elas tic in hbtel facilities. The city of 'Wash ington was practically a board'ing house. It was accustomed to be transformed into a boarding house on great occasions. There never had ben any difficulty in that respect at inaugural ceremonies, or other great con ventions or gatherings. At the recent Tri ennial Conclave of the Knights Templar, 70,000 strangers had been accommodated, and there were from 600 to 1,000 rooms left uncalled for at the Bureau of Information. Besides that there was tbe whole city of Baltimore, within 45 minutes reach to draw upon. "Washington possessed the finest streets and avenues in the world, lined with beautiful shade trees. It was the center of historic points, which vere of great interest to the American people the tomb of "Wash ington, the surrounding battlefields and otner places. Then there were the public departments, the museum and the Smith sonian Institution, where the people of Cen tral and South America could study the form of Government which all of them had to a greaterorless extent copied. THE AEGUWETS CLOSED, General Felix Agnus, of Baltimore, the next speaker, said he came as an envov from the State of Haryland to tavor "Wash ington as the place for holding the Exposi tion. He was, he said, a native of France, but was baptized in blood in the United States. He had been a private soldier and carried the flag and fought with the troops of New York, and he felt that he was a citi zen of that State; but in this matter he thought that State claims should not be con sulted. Myron M. Parker, President ot the "Wash ington Board of Trade, and Major Powell, of the Geological Survey, followed. The committee adjourned till 10 o'clock to-morrow, when the claims of New York and Chicaco are to be presented.

There is a race war here, in which Southern issues are joined with A third thai promises much trouble. The Board of Education has pro vided separate schools for the negroes, bnt the negroes are not grateful for this consid eration, and insist on abandoning their own schools and attending the schools set aside for the while pupils. This inclination on the part ot tne oiaccs has already caused areat deal of troilble. A climax came to-day. when a score of negroes, accompanied "bv half a hundred black children of all sizes' and hues, walked up to the high schools and demanded that Superintendent Powell give them admission. Superintendent Powell is a mild-mannered man, and was somewhat taken aback by the demand. He offered no obstruction, and the black children walked in and took posses sion of all the desks that they found un occupied. The white pupils protested, and then be gan to pack up tbeir books and made prepa rations to leave. Some of the colored boys grinned at the white girls, and at soon as the negroes left the building the white Eupils assaulted the blacks. There was a ard fight for 15 minutes, during which books, inkstands, slates, wool and hair were flying in the air. Superior intelligence finally prevailed, bnd the whites drove the blacks out of tbe room, chased them ont of the rard, and slugged them on the streets. The white girls, mahy of them voting ladies, urged their champions on with en couraging shoots, and brought them muni tions ot war when Dossible. xne assault or the colored scholars has created great ex citement, and the negroes' schools are de serted.

A little before 9 o'clock this morning a carriage drove up to the Kniffin residence, on Broad street, and David Purcell and his sitter Emma at once got in and were driven to the railway station, wlience they took the 9:10 train for Broadway, "Warren county. Miss Purcell will remain with her mother until Tuesday, January 21, when she will be re-qulred-to appear here at the Court of Oyer and Terminer. Druggist Paterson says she took with her a large quantity of bromide of potash, used to quiet the nerves; but ber demeanorwoula indicate that she needs nothing of that sort. Dr. Kniffin, after her departure, went to the residence of his wile's parents, on Cooper street. He will leave for Dr. Palmer's home, in New Brunswick, to-day. IJiEW ADVERTISEMENTS. OFFICE DESKS.

The House May Take Contlnnoni Ballots on a Site Tbe Tjowett City on Each Ballot to be Dropped Till a CUoIro ! Blnde. "WASHC-GTOir, January 10. The discus sion of the World's Fair bill by the House Committee on Foreign Affairs has resulted in bringing forward a proposition which, it is suggested, may aid in the selection of the site lor the fair by the House. The commit tee has already decided that it will report a bill leaving blank the name of the city where the fair shall be held, but it is feared that if it goes into the House in that shape, and without some arrangement in advance to govern the method of selection of a site, no agreement can ever be reached. Under the ordinary parliamentary rules, the probable course of proceedings in the House would be for some member to move to insert tbe name of the site. Some other member would thereupon move to strike out that name and insert another. On the vote on this last proposition tbe opposition would combine to defeat it, and this would probably be the fate of theoriginal and suc ceeding motions, the advocates of the differ ent cities desiring to secure the proposed lair killing each other off in succession. To avoid this, tbe sub-committee charged with tbe consideration of tbe fair bill has taken a hint from tbe action of the appro priations committee in securing alternative action noon certain clauses of the District of Columbia Appropriation bill, and in clines to report a special proposition which will provide for repeated ballots in the House, upon the question of naming the site for the fair, with the agreement that on each ballot the name of the city receiving tbe least number of votes shall be dropped, and in tbrs way it Is believed that a conclu sion can soon be reached.
