The Grand Structure Rapidly Ap- proaching Completions Every Inch of Space to Be Oooupied by Exhibitors, Rates of Admission Agreed Upon Yesterday. Tmportant Circular Issued by the Exceutive Committee. ‘There is always somothing now to be discov- ored at the Exposition building, or from the gen- tlomen who have ifs manngement in churgo. Tho building itsolf is hoing pushed forward with such rapidity that day by day its appoaranco changon for the bottor, In its rapld spring to- ward complotion it fs n it emblem of the oity whoso oaatorn outskiria it bonutifies, and of whose resources and entorprive it promises to bo #0 grand an exponent. Quietly and unoston- tatiously, ita projactors, as soon ay tho original idea was declarod a good ono, set to work, and, almost with the supornatural suddenness of the appearance of Aladdin's palaco, the building arisos on tho lake shoro,—the Btars and 8tripes from the contre domo announclng the roofing in of the structure just sovonty-thres days aftor the firat pile was driven, Even in its prosont unfiu- ished condition the building prosonts a noblo aspoct, ita oxterior, viowed from any standpoint, proving oven more imposing than its wido- sprond anto-natal portraits glve promise of, while ho Interior, although marred by & Juublod mass of incongruous materials, is in itselt worthy of a visit, the offect of the im- ‘monno, archiod hall, 800 foot loug, 200 feet wido, and 80 feot high, u clonr, unbrokon spaco from ond to ond, boing magnificont. ) HOW IT LOOKS, The prexont aspect of the building assures its complotion within the specifiod time. The car~ pentor work of the maiu building is progreusing rapidly aud “wiil be finished by Baturday next, when all tho oxtra force will bo put on to com= ploto tho restaurant and ladics’ parlor, structures which wall be respeatively to tho north and south. of the art gallery, and whoso proportions will bo 200 feeb in length by 20 in width oach, Tho work which is mow being dono with saw and hammer is tho closing In of a stray hole in tho roof, raising o throo-foot high railing round the gallory, and putting on tho various flnishing touches in various parts of tho building. An invitation to ascond to the top of the build- ing was accepted by a TRIBUNE reporter, aud, aftor a climb of a couplo of flights of stairs and a fow ladders, the dosired olovation was atiained. Hore a splondid bird's-oye viow of the building bolow was obtained,and the thought involuntari- Iy'nroso of what s magnificent sight it will bo when it is filled with tho products of our manu- focturors, among which will swarm s swaying multitudo of enger sight-scors.

To tho west lay Chicago, the roofs of hor grandost bwidings glstoning mo- mentarily ina stray streak of sunlight, O by one " the Titans are distinguished, TripuNe Buildiog, the Pacific, Tremon Palmer Hotels, Sluger Building, and the bundreds of minor arcuitoctural boauties which will sbortly gladden the eycs of our visitors.

THE INSIDE APPEARANCE is not a8 granduow as it will bo when the staging of thio_ contral dome 1s removed, an oporation whiich i now in progross and will bo complolod by noxt Thursday. 'Lhe work of arranging the oflics of tho various mauagers is being dono, whilo & gang of mon are devoting their attontion to constructing tho roportorial sauctum, a room 40 feot 1n longth by 20 in width, belog closed in for thoir special bouofit, immodiazely nbovo tho main entrauce, Tho lir’htillg of the building at night is to be on o lavish scale.
