ATTENDANCE AT THE
PAN-AMERICAN
The Total Number of Visitors to
Date 1,770,808 Daily Averago
for Juno 31,000.
fly i:xoltilte Wire fiom The Associated rrrss,
Huffulo, July 7. The total attcud
nnie to date at the l'an-Amoilcnn Is
1, T71i.SC.!. The exposition attendance
began on the 20th of May, but at that
llnio many fcutiues were lii"mpletc.
The avciage dally attendance for
June, Including five .Sundays, was over
I'.l.OOO. The excessive hot weather din
ing the last two weeks has had a do
ten out Inlluence on tho attendance,
notwithstanding Buffalo Is tated as
the "coolest city" by soveial dcgiccs,
on account ot the breezes fiom Lake
Kile. It Is believed that July and
August will easily bring the total to
anovo five millions and it will icrnaln
lor September and October to bring
tho remainder of thp ten millions at
which the status ot the guesseis have
been et. At the Chicago World's
Kali, .is per cent, of the attendance
was dining the last two mouths.
Klght million paid admissions, with
the revenues from eonccsslons, will
lepay the cost of th Pan-American.
One thing that has . -haps counted
seilously against the attendance to
date Is the short limit railway exclu
sion, which gives the holder but one
or two days at the exposition.
Some ot the excursion people have
expressed themselves very strongely
against any ticket having n. limit of
less than fifteen da.vs, claiming that
two weeks Is little enough time for
anyone who deslics to enjoy the ex
position as a festival or to prollt from
It as a great educational Institution,
Special days are now important feat
ures of the exposition programme.
Wednesday, July 10, will he Maryland

Music. Tho retail grocers of the

Helcln, July 7. A minister of the
great potveis told the tepiesentative of
the Associated IMess today t Iih t a lead
ing cause for the piesent apparent
deadlock was the1 fact that the various
committees had taken to themselves
too much authoilty lu denting with the
Chinese and had niaelo certain prom
ises, dependent upon the Chinese agree
ing to coi tain conditions, which othei
mlnistcio found It lmpo.s1hIc to ac
cept. Another factor of conslcleiablc
Impoi tanee, he said, was tho commer
cial factor, Involving tho tight ot each
government to make Its own tieatlcs
with China and the application of the
most favoted nation clause.
In his opinion the Hist diflieulty can
be overcome shoitly, but the commer
cial Issue must bo eliminated or It Is
likely to ptovc a definite stumbling
block.
