A TEATURE OF ARTIFICIAL WATERWAYS
PART It
FBOM A STAFF COnUESrONDENT.l
Chicago, Sept. 27. There is not much to
e added to w hat The Dispatch of Satur
day contained regarding the state of the
Exposition site. As far as the other build
ings are concerned, the great halls of Man
ufactures and the Liberal Arts, 788xlGS8,
and to cost $831,255, the mighty temples of
Agriculture and Machinery, and the several
annexes, the art galleries and so on, they
exist on paper only as yet. For some of
them not even the ground is ready, and
this leads me to the changes that
liavc been made, and are still mak
ing, to fit Jackson Park for Exposi
tion purposes. In a little pavilion by the
lake Fide in that part of the park winch has
not vet been taken from the people it is to
be closed to the people on October 1, I be
lieve a man in a white jacket behind a
5elancholy temperance bar why is it
teetotalism is always so unattractive? who
t-erved me w ith ginger ale, and had the hon
esty to tell me that the five-cent kind
would quench thirst jtt-t as well as the
twenty-me-cent varietv with a foreign
label, aHo remarked that tlie Exposition
would have been a good bit further
jtdanced if the designers of the
grounds had not been bent upon making all
the hills valleys, the vallcvs hills, the dry
land water, and the water land. And a
couple or days spent upon the site con
vinced me of the justness of this criticism.
I noticed one place in particular at the
northern end of the grounds, where one set
of men were filling up a canal, and another
Fet of men not 50 feet away were digging a
river, said to be 1H feet deep! Of course,
the land as it originally lay was not suitable
for the grand purpose in view, for a good
deal of it was swamp, I am told, and the
made ground amounts to many acres, but
from the workmen about the ground, as well
a from my own observation, I gathered
that home money and labor, not to speak of
t'ie even more valuable iime, might have
l-en saved by adapting the plans more gen
erally to the lay of the land. "Water will
cat a bigger fisure in this exposition, I
should say. than in any previous one.
VATEK WIIO. BE PLENTIFUL.
There will be, in addition to the embraces
of Lake Michigan, a host of artificial and
Fcmi-artifical waterwavs intersecting the
p rounds of the Exposition. A canal from
the lake w ill lead from the northern side of
the lesser pier, in the lee of which will be
llic naval exhibit, a lull. sized model of a
coast line battle ship of the first class, to a
teries of lagoons which will surround a
vfooded island in the center of the grounds.
Other canals will debouch into basins and
tmall lakes in various directions, so that
almost every building in tho ground will
have a water tront, and it will be possible
to make a verx satisfactory tour of the Ex
position by water. The grading, dredging,
digging of canals and lakes, and the prepar
ation of the site havecost over $300,000.
Only an expert in such matters could
answ er the question which suggests itself as
Foon as the Exposition topic is broached,
imraely, is the work as far advanced as it
should be? "Workmen and foremen about
the grounds told me that if the work went
on at its present pace the "World's Fair
would be ready by the appointed time, and
with some month to spare. The Exposi
tion is being built by contract. The con
tracts call for fulfillment six: months before
the date set for the opening, which is May,
3W)3, thus allowing the Exposition Director
ate time to remedy any defects or to com
plete unfinished work. The contractors are
all under heavy bonds, and the penalties for
breach of contract are plainlv de
fined and in large amounts. The di
rectors of the Exposition with whom
I discussed this phase of the matter were
comfortable in the unanimous belief that
the Fair was well under way, the prospect
most encouraging, and the only considera
ble danger was that the people of the
earth, as soon as they became fully and
iinallv coninced of the Fair's genuineness,
"would make such a mad rush to get there
with their exhibits that the present di
mensions of the Exposition would prove in
adequate. THE OFFICIALS IIAKD AT "WORK.
The men with shovels and picks, the men
who hold down the plows, the carpenters
and the artisans, and the executive officers
of the Exposition, whose work is plainly to
be een in Jackson Park, are not the only
one- laboriuc in Chicago for the great fair.
Go down LaSalle street to the corner of
Adams and enter the gigantic building of
lUuid, McXally & Co., the publishers; go
up in trie elevater to 1 lorget wnicn floor,
it is hard to remember floors in these tre
mendous Chicago buildings, and you
will find the clerical force and director
ate of the Exposition, to the number of
limidreds of men and women as hard at work
with pens and ink, as the brawny fellows
vith spades aud saws in Jackson Park.
The Expo-ition has two whole floors of
Utand, McNally & Co.'s building, contain
ing scores of rooms, and another floor in
that wonderful office building called "The
Xiookery," across the street
The department with which Lbecame ac
quainted is that of Publicity and Promotion,
of which Moses P. Hahdy is the chief and
E. E. A. Dorr, an eminent Pennsylvania
newspaper man, bis assistant Something
of the magnitude of this department can be
gleaned from the fact that there are 60,000
people on the mailing list, to whom inter
esting statistics and general information
about the Fair are sent regularly, and 17,000
newspapers in all parts of the world which
are kept informed in like manner. It was
irom Mr. Dorr that I obtained an exact
statement of the financial condition of the
Exposition and all the figures, in fact, that
have appeared in this article.
DOUBLED UP THE CAPITAL.
The stock of the Exposition Company is
10,000,000. It w as f 5,000,000 at first, but
several months ago, owing to the enlarge
ment of the plans, the amount was in
ci eased to 510,000,000. Of this $5,595,440 have
already been subscribed. The subscribers,
citizens of Chicago, number 28,000. As yet
CO per cent only of the stock has been called
for, and the amount collected is over S3, 000,
000. It was on condition that 53,000,000 of
the stock should be paid up that the city of
Chicago agreed to issue $5,000,000 bonds for
Exposition use, and this issue ot bonds will
take plai-e immediately. Of course, these
bonds will be snapped up at once.
The United States Government appropri
ated $1,500,000. The assets of the Exposi
tion in the treasury, broadly speaking, in
cash are close upon ten millions of dollars.
If the original plans of an Exposition to
cost $10,000,000 or $12,000,000 had been ad
hered to the financial resources in sight
now would be ample. But the plans have
expanded, and unloresecn expenditures have
been made neoessarv, with the result that
the Exposition will cost Chicago at least
$17,000,000 or $1H,000,000. Sow the Expo
sition directorate intend to ask Congress
for $5,000,000 as a loan to be secured -by the
first gate receipts. A syndicate of Chicago
bankers is w illing to advance this $5,000,000
now, but thev ak 10 per cent, or five and a
half million dollars worth of tickets for five
millions.
Congress, therefore, will be appealed to
this winter; and it is said that the Western
Congressmen, at all events, irrespective of
politics, will vote for the loan. As to the
teceipts from the Expositiou.it is estimated
that M.000,000 will be realized from conces
sions anil privileges, $2,000,000 from sal
vage that is, from the rale of building ma
terials, etc., aRcr the Exposition is over
aad $7,000,000 Irom gate receipts. Sobody
in Chicago expects to get anything back
upon the stock subscribed, either interest or
principal, and no subscriber is likely to be
disappointed.
THE CITY'S ACTIVE PART.
It must also be remembered in fairness to
Chicago that outside of the subcriptions of
her citizens, and the direct bonding of the
city for Exposition purposes, not lesi than
$5,000,000 will be appropriated from the
city treasury for the improvement of the
citv, in order to make the best showingpos
stble in the world's sight in 1893. The Park
Commissioners, who control the parks,
boulevards, etc, contemplnte special ex
penditure of $2,000,000 or $3,000,000 in the
beautifying of the city, and the muni
cipal authorities are 'being aided by a
special improvement organization of citi
7ens. One cannot be in Chicago a day
without observing the harmonious and
whole-souled interest of Chicagoans in the
great Fair.
From bankers, newspaper proprietors,
and influential citizens generally," down to
the newsboys, Chicago's neart and soul are
wrapped np in the great undertaking. The
28,000 subscribers to the Exposition stock
represent all classes and degrees. This en
thusiasm and sustained effort can hardly fail
to be crowned with success. After a few
days' stay in Chicago, you feel that the en
thusiasm is contagious.
By way of completing the financial show
ing of the Exposition up to date, it may be
well to give the amounts appropriated by
the States and Territories, as follows:
Arizona $ 30,000
California A 300,000
Colorado 100,000
Delaware ju,uiw
Idaho 20,000
Illinois 800.000
Indiana 73,000

Vermont 20,000
Washington 100000
West Virginia 40,000
Wisconsin C5.000
Wyoming 30,000
$,700,000
It must be added that a number of States
have yet to make appropriations, and in
Vermont and Minnesota, a special session of
the Legislature in the former and a conven
tion in the latter, arc to be held for the pur
pose ot increasing, ine amount onginauy
appropriated.
SO LAGGARDS IN THE HATTER.
In other States, for instance in Texas,
Kansas, South Dakota and Arkansas, where
the Legislatures failed to make any appro
priations, State conventions have been held
and money raised for the purpose by special
stock subscriptions of sums ranging from
$10,000 to $200,000. Altogether the State
appropriations will amount to not less than
$5,000,000.
The foreign nations participating in the
Fair have, up to date, made the following
appropriations: Great Britain, $125,000;
France, $400,000; Germanv, $250,000; Japan,
$500,000: Mexico. $750,000; Dauish "West In

OCEAN VESSELS COLLIDE.
The Clrcasula and Daylight Sleet and the
Former Is Disabled.
New York, Sept 27,. The Anchor line
steamer Circassia returned to port to-day
with a large hole in her starboard bow. She
collided Saturday night about 10 o'clock
with the schooner Daylight, bound from
Boston to Philadelphia. The Circassia was
in charge of Chief Officer Italston at the
time. Italston says that the steamer was
going along slowly. The night was dark
and hazy. Suddenly he and the men on the
platform looked out and saw a white light
directly ahead. He was in a quandry as to
what action should be taken, when a green
ligh t appeared on the unseen vessel. The
bow of the Circassia was set to port In a
few moments the unknown showed a red
light and was directly under the steamer's
biw.
The engines were reversed, but before
tney had any effect the crash came. A hole
four feet square was smashed into the Cir
cassian starboard bow. The jib-boom and
bowsprit of the schooner were carried away.
The Daylight proceeded on her way. The
Circassia returned for repairs. There was
no little commotion among the steamer's 120
passengers when the crash came. They will
remain on the vessel while she is being re
paired. This will take but a day or two, for
the steamer will not go on the dry dock.
A BUNCO BTEEBEB AEEESTED
Charged "With Robbing an Albany Man of
810,000 a Tear Ago.
2ew York, Sept 27. Special.
Thomas O'Brien, an all-around crook and
confidence man, known the world over and
the associate of "Hungry Joe," the prince
of bunco steerers,was arrested last night by
two of Inspector Byrnes detectives on a
benoh warrant issued at the instance of
District Attorney Andrew Hamilton, of
Albany county. The warrant charges
O'Brien with robbing a wealthy citizen of
Albany of $10,000 in a bunco game about a
year and a half ago.
O'Briei and George Post were operating
at that time in Albany. O'Brien made the
acquaintance of the victim, whose .name is
withheld, and invited him to inspect some
goods in his apartments. A game was in
progress. The victim took a hand and was
induced to believe that he would win $10,
000 by the turn of a card. They refused to
lethimplav unless he could produce $10,
000. The victim left the house, drew $10,
000 from the bank and returned. No sooner
had he entered the room than the confidence
men knocked him down, robbed him and
fled. Post escaped to South America and
all trace of O'Brien was lost until yester
day. Old Lady Stranded In New York.
New York, Sept 28. Mary Graves, 73
years of age, ot Chill ico the, O., accompa

YOMG GRANT'S IDEAS.
Ro Member of the Family Will Ever
Cast a Yote for Blaine.
THE OLD FIGHT STILL RANKLES.
An Admission That the Plumed
Will FrouaMy Be Named.
Knight
A WAEM ADJIIBER OP MA JOE FKINJiEI
Chicago, Sept. 27. The Herald contains
the following interview:
"I don't see how a Grant could vote for
James G. Blaine for President or even
favor his nomination for that office on the
Republican ticket If a man should call
you a thief and a pickpocket, or call your
father a thief and pickpocket, you would
not be likely to think well enough of that
man to aid him in securing a public office.
That is the reason a Grant could not vote
for James G. Blaine for any office. "
Those are the words uttered by Jesse E.
Grant in an interview with a reporter at
the Auditorium yesterday. Jesse Grant is
compactly built and under the medinm
height. His complexion seems to have
been acquired by outdoor exercise, and he
wore a broad-brimmed, black slouch hat
This hat was not arranged in the military
style, but the whole crown stood up with
out a dent in it, giving the wearer the ap
pearance of the practical "Western miner
that he is. In conversation Mr. Grant is
extremely modest, but impresses one as
being a solid, substantial young business
man of the West who is taking pains to
travel through this world on his own
merits, and not on account of distinguished
parentage.
WILL NEVER VOTE FOR BIAINE.
"No, sir; Blaine will never receive a vote
from me for any political office, nfter the
way in which he and his friends attacked
the" personal honor of my father here in the
Chicago convention, continued Mr. Urant
in answer to further queries. "Blaine and
his friends virtuallj charged my father
with being a thief and scoundrel and being
no better than a common pickpocket, and
can it be expected that I could forget those
malicious charges? There was no occasion
for Blaine and his friends to enter into any
such personalities. But under these cir
cumstances you can easily see why a Grant
naturally has an antagonism to Blaine.
"Blaine seems to be talked of for the
Presidental nomination everywhere, and if
be wants the nomination there is no doubt
he can get it," continued Mr. Grant "He
can get a solid delegation from California
to the National Convention. Everything
is Blaine on the coast; they have nothing
particularly against Harrison, but it is just
simply everybody talks Blaine. If he be
made the nominee of course I could not vote
for him. If I were a politician I could vote
for Blains or anybody else on the ticket,
but I am not a politician But it doesn't
make much difference with other people
how I may vote, as I am not in politics I
am a plain, everyday miner, and have been
lor ten years.
M'KIXLEY HAS FIRST CHOICE.
And in a spirit of fun, Mr. Grant added:
"I guess I'll have to vote for the Alliance
candidate for President, as I am too good a
Republican to vote the Democratic ticket."
Mr. Grant said he regarded Major Mc
Kinlev, of Ohio, as the greatest man in the
nation to-day and thought his high, tariff
bill was just the thing the country needed.
He said he would rather see McKinley
made the Presidental nominee than any
other man in the party. Mr. Grant is ac
companied by his wife, who is the daugh
ter of ex-Senator Chaffee, of Colorado.
Their child and maid are also with them.
They left for the East last night They will
visit Mr. Grant's mother in New York until
the 2d -or 3d of Octocer and then Jesse
Grant and family, his mother and his brother,
Ulysses S. Grant, Jr., will come to Chicago;
to be in attendance at the unveiling of trie'
Grant equestrian statue in Lincoln Park.
They will arrive in Chicago several days be
fore the unveiling.
A. Good Suggestion.
If you have valuables keep them where
they will be safe. The safe deposit vaults

If you spend your money at random
nothing but good luck will give you your
moneyjs worth; spend it intelligently and
the Almighty Dollar will come back. Isn't
it a fitting question to ask whether a ques

style, fit, finish and durability count for
something? If you don't get all these,
what sort of an investment are vou makine?
