A Large Gathering of Prominent Men From Every Scction Memorialize Congress to Hold the World’s Fair of 1892 in This City—The Delegates Received by 5 President Harrison. eens A business-looking lot of gentlemen assem- bled at Willard’s today to take action relating to the Three Americas exposition to be held at Washington in 1892, It was a meeting of the national board of promotion. The meeting was to have commenced at 12 o'clock, but eo much time was taken up in registering and in introducing the delegates from the four points of the compass to each other that it was about 1 o’clock before they got to work. 4 PRESIDENT CHOSEN. Commissioner Douglass called the meeting to order and ‘Mr. A. R, Little, president of the board of trade of Philadelphia, was chosen to took | preside. He took the chair, but it was too lato to transact any business before the reception by President Harrison at the White House. Secretary Anderson explained that the Presi- dent had appointed 1:30 o'clock as the hour when he would receive the delegates and sug- gested that all business be postponed until after that. Upon motion of Prof. King a recess was taken until time to start for the White House. At the appointed time the delegates proceeded to the White House, headed by Commissioner Douglass and Mr. Allen of Philadelphia, the chairman. A LARGE GATHERING OF PROMINENT MEN. The assemblage of delegates from the several states is even larger, perhaps, than one even of Secretary Anderson’s sanguine disposition an- ticipated. The three parlors at Willard’s were thrown into one and the space was filled by the assembled delegates. ‘The meeting was not an saeeeee? of citizens, but a conyention of the accredited delegates to the national board of promotion, and the visiting delegates greatly outnumbered those resident in Washington. There were between a hundred and a hun- dred and fifty visiting delegates present, somo coming from California and Washington, the now state, and from the cities of Boston, Phila- delphia and New York. They are all repre- sentative men—governors, mayors or leading members of boards of trade. They represent the public sentiment in almost sections of the country and are all earnest in their purpose to make a national affair of the exposition and to have it in Washington. They come with the proper business spirit and show a disposition to take hold of the matter with the determination to make it a success, A large number of the visiting @elegates went into the meeting without registering. AMONG THOSE REGISTERED were: F, N. Bardswell of Boston, president of the New Englandfurniture exchange and mem- ber of the national furniture committee; Isaac McHose, president of the board of trade at Reading, Pa., and E. F. Keever, secretary; Hon, Jos. R. Kenney, Jesse Orr, J. R. Miller, W. M. Kaufman and Jacob H. Mohr, delegates from the Reading board of trade; C. fF.

Tae Reception by President Harrison. There were about a hundred people in the east room at 1 o’clock when as mapy delegates to the national board of promotion entered. The former were grouped in the north end of the room and the latter were ranged in a semi- circle at the other end, The President was prompt in getting down and soon disposed of the regular hand-shakers. Then Commissioner Douglass, who headed the delegates, accom- panied by Secretary Anderson, advanced to where the President was standing, and, after shaking hands, said: Mr. President, I want to introduce to you some citizens who have come liere to take some Coal 2 toward the world’s fair, which we hope to hold here in 1892. The President said he would be glad to mect them, and the line then passed around the room. The governors of. Delaware and Maryland advanced arm in arm and were warmly eeted by the President. Behind them came ir. Little of Philadelphia, Mr, Anderson made the introductions. As soon as all had passed the delegates went back to Williard’s, where they had luncheon. Col. Anderson’s Address. When the convention reassembled at 2 o'clock in Willard hall President Little intro- duced Col. Anderson, who made a forcible, clear address to the delegates upon the work of the board of promotion. He explained that the word “permanent,” which has been used in connection wsth the proposed exhibition, did not mean an interminable exbibition of perish- able goods, but of models and specinens of growth. He pointed out the immense advan- tages of WASHINGTON AS A LOCATION for the world’s fair, and urged that the pres- ence here of the National museuin and other public repositories of curiosities and articles making the growth of theAmerican continentsin population, civilization and wealth. He claimed that this tormed already a nucieua worth fully $50,000,000 for such a fair. In former years ortions of this vast collection have en sent forth to other cities and countries piece meal totheir detriment, The time has come, he thought, when the govern- ment should cease to engage in the traveling show business. ‘ THE RIVAL CITIES. Speaking of the advisability of choosing Washington as a site he argued that New York, Boston, Chicago, St. Louis and other applicants for the honor, are so closely intercsted in the trade with South America, and that their ambi- tion in this direction is so tinged with selfish end mercenary motives that it would be manifestly improper for the fair to be given to of them while Washington is so much it ter adapted to the purpose. This, he said, is neutral ground, where all commercial jealousies would be buried, and the selection of this city would give no undue advantage to any other, In speakin, on the topic of the aavisability of authorizing the fair itself, he mentioned the immense annual exodus of American gold to Europe. y We should, reverse the flood, he exclaimed, and cause some tide of wealth toward these shores, When the applause which met this address had sabsided Hon. George C, Gorham arose from his place on of the hall and pesos leave to present a momorial, which the board thougnt would be weil to adopt, A Memorial to Congress. To the Honorable the Senate and House of | *Pecial Represent of the United States: motion, represen’ various in the several ciate ‘end terriscties of tbe union, sespee tially urge upon Congress once own of its several countries in industries, tions, Fie men eg countries should be Aud sion should be one for tnvidug t this countey as nation’s tatives from the nations of the world and such of thelt De: in Seat aet oaks to tee ly WR memorialists corpora’ a induce- ment whatever, but that the expos tion be held pode — ere under the di- and con’ general government and that from the Treasury of the United Stetes, overflowing as it is with revenues far in excess of the government, the excess of the ex- penditures if any above the receipts are met. IS SUPPORT OF THE MEMORIAL, thought that the had reached such a point of ‘ity and wealth when it could easily undertake to commemorate in a fitting manner one of the ae events since dawn of the Christian era, e did not sees the selection of Washington, for, he said, the advisability of such an action was manifest, MR. BEAN'S SPEECH AND RESOLUTION, Theo, W. Bean of the board of trade of Nor- ristown, Pa,, seconded the memorial in an elo- quent bit of oratory. He said that so far as he knew the sense of the people of the of the Schuylkill valley they are unani- mously in favor of the selection of Washington, The fair, he said, should be purely national in its character, and that Congress should not think of asking the states for aid to through such a pian, He hoped the efforts that have been made to divert this great enterprise will fail of their objects or be turned into one centralized object to locate the fair here. He introduced a resolu- tion setting forth the advantages of Washington and providing for its selection as a site for the exposition under a con- gressional appropriation, also asking that the main building be permanent and afterward turned into a national university, The resolu- tion was referred to the proper committee, FLORIDA HEARD FROM. Gov. Fleming of Florida said that he did not think it necessary for him to place himself on record as favoring the selection of the national capital for the fair, and he knew that such an action would be_ eminentl; satisfactory to the citizens of his state. It would be eminent: ae to select other city, where other historic events coul: give excuse for local celebrations; but this is a national affair, and as such would be out place anywhere else, There is but one doubt, he said, connected with Washington's candidacy, that was in respect to the ability of Washing- ton to accommodate the crowds that would un- doubtedly come to such a centennial. He asked for information on this point from Washing- tonians, Mr. Hoadley, a local hotel man, made a few remarks on that subject, showing that tho hotel men of the other cities that are now in the field do not want the fair, on account of their regu- lar trade. Mr. Reed of the Alexandria board of trade thought that the experience of week before last, when Washington contained full; 400,000 people, all comfortably quartere: should satisfactorily answer all queries as to the spiny of Washington to accommodate the crowds, Mayor Kenny of Reading, Pa., heartily en- dorsed the selection of Washington, Mayor Ellyson of Richmond agreed with others that Washington should be selected. Mr. Gorham announced that Col. Bean had agreed to withdraw the educational feature of his resolutions, The amended resolution contained a pro- vision that the main building be designed aga permanent memorial, to be used for such pur- poses as Congress may afterward determine, A NEW YORKER TELLS WHY WASHINGTON SHOULD BE CHOSEN, Mr. Mohr of New York said to a Srar re- porter that he was heartily in favor of having the exhibition in Washington, where it could be made a purely national affair. He said he thought that the capital of the nation was the place to hold such an exposition, and that for- eign nations would expect it to be held at the capital. He arguéd that foreigners might look pen it as a provincial affair if held elsewhere. Most New Yorkers are, of course, he says, in favor of New York, but many prefer Washing- ton, and nearly all have Washington for their second choice, The Local Board of Promotion. recommended the following petition to Con- greus: Tothe honorable the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States; ‘The undersigned resident tax payers of the District of Columbia respectfully petition your honorable body for legislation providing for the holding of a Three Americas exposition at the national capital in 1892, under the exclu- sive direction and control of the federal gov- ernment, and if in the selection of the Tocalit for holding such an exposition it shall be the sense of Congress that the question should in any degree depend upon the offering of a guarantee fund by the advocates of the city to be chosen, thon we pray yonr honorable body to authorize the issuance of $10,000,000 of the bonds of the District of Co- lumbia, to run a long time at a low rate of in- terest, to be sold at not lesa than par, the pro- ceeds to be paid into the treasury of the United States as a guarantee fund for the net expenses of holding such an exposition at the city of Washington, and any unexpended balance thereof to be paid into the treasury of the District.

A Strap reporter was told today that the thirty eases of rerated pension office employes, as published in yesterday's Stam from the report of the commission, was incomplete, ‘There are about @ dozen more,” the reporter was told, “whose names are not included in that list. Why they were omitted by the commission from the = list’ is not known, but they are in the office all the same.” It seems that in two cases the rerated pen- sioners have been officially requested to re- fund to the government the extra money paid to them on account of such rerating. It is not known what action they will take, but the law gives them sixty days in which to decide that question. ‘THE CASE OF HIRAM SMITE.

This furry is caused by the pree- ence on the Carolina coast of @ se vere storm, which was yesterday cea- tral’ over the Indian ferritory. The jump from beyond the Mi to the Atlantic is a long one, and could be secom- plisbed only by a disturbance of considerable violence, such as this one seems to be.

Must Pay Duty on its Altars, but the Stained Windows can Come In Free. Right Rev. John J. Keane, rector of the Catholic University of America near Washing- ton, wrote to the Secretary of the Treasury recently requesting that certain stained glass windows and carved altars which are to be im- ported for the use of the chapel of the univers- ity be admitted to free entry. Assistant Secre- tary Tichenor bas imformed him in reply that if upon examination by the appraising officers the stained glass windows are found to be paintings attaining to the rank of works of art they will be admitted to free entry, but that he regrets to state, however, that there is no pro- vision of Jaw under which the altars can be admitted free. He adds that the question re- age | the free entry of such articles has time to time been considered by the dey ent and that :t has been invariably held that, inasmuch as they are neither ‘“statu- ary” nor “regalia” within the well-established meaning of those terms as contained in the free list, they are liable to duty. ALL CLUES FAIL, Belle Brown is Still on the Other Side of a Great Mystery. Mrs. Brown, mother of the missing girl, was quite ill today, suffering from nervous pros- tration, She has not yet received a word of intelligence concerning her danghter. Mr. Brown, left the city yesterday rather mysteriously without saying a word to any one as to his probable destination. He had not re- turned home at 2 o'clock this afternoon, but his wife is not worried about him because he told her before leaving not to ba, uneasy if he did not return last night, and he also said that he might not return for several days, The detectives knew nothing more about the case today than they did yesterday. They wero unable to give any information concerning either the missing girl or her father. THE LONG BRIDGE CLUE.

She 0534 | saw the girl, so ahe said, the day after Belte disappeare: Harrison Green was the man referred to, and be was found at his house.

At the afternoon session of the international Maritime conference yesterday the first reading of the “Rules of the Road” was concluded.

Mr. Hail presented additional rules, one pre- viding that every vessel overtaking another shall keep out of the way, and the other that where one ship is to avoid another she shall not cross her bows unless absolutely necessary. A motion was made to strike out article 28, which permits a departure from the rules under special circumstances, and Mr. Goodrich also moved to omit article 25, which says thet “nothing in the rules shall interfere with the operation of a special rule, duly made by local authority, relative to the navigation of any bar- ~ songs or ao a was decide: rat e various committees should be given until Monday to begin their work, and it was voted to adjourn until IL o'clock on that day. 4 COMMITTEE ON NAUTICAL DEVICES AXD sT® TEMS.

The detective did not think that the girl was the one for whom he was looking.

AN UNKNOWN DEAD GIRL IN NEW YORK. ‘The New York Sun today prints the follow- ing: “A young girl was found last night lying unconscious in the east 72d street roadway in Central Park. Beside her was a small bottle, empty, and marked “‘laudanum.” She wore a black wrap over a red jersey, anda striped dress. Nothing in her pockets showed who she was. She was carried to the Presbyterian hospital, where vigorous efforts to revive ber were made, but too late. She was apparently about eighteen years of age, 5 feet 2 inches in —— and had around face and light com- plexion.” When the above story was shown the private detectives they thought the girl was probably wn. it she proves to be Belle Brown the clue fur- nished by the colored woman at the depot will prove to be the correct one, Before leaving home Mr. Brown said he would send word home if he learned anything, but the fact that his wife has not yet heard from him leads to the belief thathe has not yet learned of his missing child, STILL CLUE HUNTING. Everything was quiet at the Brown residence at3 p.m. Nothing had been heard either from the ening gt or Mr. Brown himself, Miss Ada Watkins, Mr. Brown's niece, said they had no idea where Mr. Brown wes, but that no un- easiness was felt on account of his absence, as without doubt he was following up one of the oldclues or some new one that he had discov- 76885; | ered, —_._—__ Work of the House Breakers.
