THOUSANDS TO MEET Annual Session of Dunkards at Muncie, Ind. SMALL ATTENDANCE AT THE FAIR Attempt to Rob a Train Frus- trated. OTHER TELEGRAPHIC NEWS. LIKE AN IDEAL SUMMER DAY. Pleasant Weather Again Granted the Visitors tothe Exposition. Wortp’s Farr Grounps, Curcaco, May 20.— thousands of them, were favored with a fore- taste of an ideal summer day, with all the enchanting surroundings of man’s art and genius, enhanced by the blue placid waters of Lake Michigan. It ison such a day as this that the visitor is impressed with the beauty and ideal character of the site chosen for the exposition. Jackson Park and the lake com- bined form a setting for the fair the equal of which it would be hard to find anywhere. MACHINERY HALL CHIMES. As visitors passed through the gates of the white city this morning the sound of melodi- ous cathedral chimes fell on theirears. The chimes had a glad ring as though a wedding was in progress as one of the exposition exhibits on the Podunk county fair plan. For the first time the bells inthe two towers which adorn the ends of machinery ball, opposite the south pond, were set ringing out a welcome to strangers within the gates of the fair. chimes are elaborate and can be heard from nearly any part of the park. The advent of warm weather, with every indication that it has come to stay, bas had the effect of bringing smiles to the faces of the concessionaires who have in- vested millions in their many enterprises, Soda water fountains and fruit stands have sprung into life like mushrooms, They can be found in every nook and corner of the build- ings and no visitor need yearn in vain, if he is thirsty, providing he has a dime, A cautious electrician who is in charge of an exhibit in the electricity building has made a Anique sign to hang on the appliances shown as ‘a warning to ignorant or venturesome visitors, ‘The design probabiy bas not received the sanc- tion of the director general, but itis sensi- ble. In addition to the printed words ‘hands off.” the artist has painted in black a skull and croskbones to politely intimate that contact with the apparatus would be accom- panied by the same results which attend the electric chairs at Sing Sing and Auburn prisons when in operation. SMALL ATTENDANCE. Notwithstanding today’s big crowd the at- tendance this week has been disappointingly light considering the fine weather of the past three or four days. The greatest attendance 3] of the week was on Tuesday, Nor- | wegian day, when 62,000 perso: sed. @ | through the gates. The smallest day was Thurs- |day when but 27,000 persons came to seo the show. ‘The average attendance since the fair opened is about 33.000. This is a pretty good figure, considering the two weeks of bad weather, but it falls’ far short of the mark necessary to mect the ex- penses of the exposition. It takes $45,000 a day to rnn this big show and that means 90.000 paid admissions. If the turnstiles record on an average 90.000 a day for the entire period of the fair the bare running expenses of the fair will be met. The concessions and side shows are pro- ductive of considerable revenue, and from this source the stockholders may expect a small rate of interest on their investment. Begin- ning on June 1 the paid admissions must neces- | sarily average considerably more than 90,000 | to make up the deficit caused by short attend- ance during the mouth of May. If another season of bad weather comes along or the attendance from any other reason should | fall below this mark the money coming from | the concessionaries must of necessity be used | to fil! the cap, and therefrom departs the stock- holders’ chances of revenue on investment. In computing the attendance a comparison is | generally made by most of the papers with the | figures at the centennicl, which gives the im- | pression that the attendance w tremendous e crowds are large, but they must be on an four times as great as those at the Iphia exposition, as the world’s fair cost about $32,000,000, while the centennial | represented an outlay of but €8,000,0000. WORK FAR BEHIND. The work in the electricity building is still | far behind and scems to drag unnecessarily. | It will be some time in June before this depart ment is in onde: ‘The other buildings’ exbibits are nearly all in | place, excepting those of Rus4a, Norway and Mexico. The dispinys from the former coun- tries were delayed by an ice blockade in the Baltic sea, while Mexicans were late in starting theirs from that com try. All of "the Mexican produc will be shown in bronze cases of an elaborate akes the work of installation ‘They will hardly be in order for two slow. wecke, while Russia snd Norway will have every- thing in-readiness by June 1. —— GATHERING OF DUNKARDS, A Seven Days’ Session at Muncie, Ind., to Be Attended by 25,000 Delegates. Moncre, Ixp., May 20.—The Dunkards of the United States are closing in on Muncie. Not Jess than 25,000 will be in attendance at the big meeting tomorrow. The mecting proper was to havecommenced its seven days’ session tonight, but the unexpected crowds of the brethren held ‘at midday. ices will be conducted three times each day. A large tabernacle with a ca; acity for 6,000 has been constructed. A dining hall that will sent over 1,000 has alo been erected. Besides these, lurch stands and other public comfort buildings have been erected to nccom- modate the wants of the brethren. The fair ground is the spot selected for this vast assem- Dlage. Thirty-one head of fine cattle, which were carefully fattened on corn, will be slaughtered bread will also. be consumed. Pies, potatoes and many other edibles of plain and satisfying character are also on the bill of fare. All of these are furnished by the delegates and are prepared on the grounds. The men wear broad-brimmed hate and have long hirsute adornments, while the wom: n wear the bonnet of the ol! style. ‘The men greet each other with kiss and caress, but no osculatory manifestations take place between the opposite sexes. ‘The legislative department of the brethren or- ganization is in the hands of ordained elders of the church, a number of whom are elected an- nually to serve on what is known as the stand- ing committee. ‘This committee held a session yesterday and | elected officers for the ensuing year as follow: David E.

Henry Clews’ Weekly Financial Review, issued today, ray: The opinion expressed in our last weekly advices that the depression had then touched ite lowest point has been confirmed by the course of the market during the past week. So far as the late condition of the stock mar- ket has been due to purely banking and mone- tary causes, now relieved from that partic- ular source of pressure, and we may countupon @ reasonably steady couree of the money mar- ket for some time ahead. It will be wise for operators to realize how violent is the wrench caused by the break of the “industrials,” and how wide its effects have been and how long those effects may continue. That crash has driven out of the market a large portion of the “outsiders” who have been operating in those stocks and few of them have anything left for resuming operations. It bas shaken confidence for the time being in that class of properties, and it nas made lenders cautious about making large advances on them. Time alone can serve to heal this shock and to bring back to Wall street capital secking temporary employment in securtier. For some time still, tho dubious conditions will | be exaggerated and the hopeful ones will be subjected to a pessimistic discount, ——-+-+—___ Washington Stock Exchange.

Famine is Likely to Help the Ameri- can Cereal Abroad. BREAD FORTHEGERMAN ARMY Scandinavians Welcome Malze — Queer Su- perstitions Current Kespecting the Grain— ‘The Mystery of Popcorn—How Corn is De- germinated and Prepared for Export. —_>-—_—_ Murphy, the colonel of corn, is in Washing- ton, He says that the bed crops abroad are going to help the introduction of maize in Europe surprisingly. A fomine is immedi- ately in prospect, and that cheap cereal will take advantage of the coming high prices for wheat and rye. The German army, which consumes 500,000 loaves of bread per diem, will adopt it. That could not happenjso long as rye was so cheap as it has been recently. From $9.50 for 100 kilos, equaj to 220 pounds, it has quickly fallen to $4.50. on account of the immense harvests 6f last year all over the world. But gaunt hunger will soon stalk over the land where plenty has been reigning. ‘Then will arrive a chance for corn. It is not likely that German soldiers will ob- ject to tne introduction of corn in their bread rations, The loaves will contain two-thirds rye and one-third maize. They taste ¢: as if made of rye alone, when thus com| andeven the emperor was not able to detect auy difference in flavor. Baked samples pre- pared in this way were sent to ail the members of the reichstag, being distributed also among the charitable institutions of Berlin, and the erdict passed on them wes unanimously favorable. The only opposition to the new grain comes from the millers, It was the same way in Ireland when corn was shipped thither from America to relieve the great famine of 1848, reports being circulated to the effect that its consumption as human food “turned people into nij ” This, it was said. was the reason why were so many negroes in the United States, + TRE PRESUDICES AGAINST CORX. At present nore Indian corn is used in Ire- land than in all the rest of Europe. The orig- ina! prejudice against it was at the beginning greatly intensified by lack of knowledge among the peopie as to how itshould be cooked. They tried to prepare it for the table as they did oatmeal, by pouring boiling water upon it simply. But all sorts of other objections are urged against the Yankee cereal wherever an attempt is made to introduce it. Prejrdiced persons declare that it is bard to digest, and that bread made from it gets stale quickly. It is even alieged that “polenta,” the national dish of Italy—a sort of corn porridge with milk—causes a horrid disease calied *-peiia- gra.” The ground maize eold in England is usually raucid, not being fresh. It is not cal- culated to popularize the grain as food. CORN IN SWEDES. Col. Murphy, acting as agent of the Depart- ment of Agriculture under special appropria- tion by Congress, has been engaged during the last few weeks in teaching the people of Scan- dinavia to appreciate corn. The people gave a cordial welcome to him and his goiden grain. In fact, respecting the latter they showed more enthusiasm than has been met with in any | other European country. No duty is charged on imports of the cerea! except a merely nomi- | nal ‘ariff in Sweden. What grains they grow in that part of the world are fed to cattle, Denmark is the greatest butter producing nation on the face of the earth. Its butter ir vegetables abroad, is just what they want and is sure to become popular with them. On March 20 a corn banquet was given at Copenhagen. United States Minister Ciark E. | Carr presiding. ‘The first course was ‘mush and | milk. This was followed by grilled oysters rolied in maize. Then came fried mush with maple sirup. Hominy croquettes were one of the most highly appreciated articles on the bill of fure, though rivaled perhaps by sweet corn on the ear. For dessert there was corn-flour pudding. Two kinds of bread were off the gueste—mixed rye and maize, and mixed maize and wheat. In respect to corn. Col. Murphy's culinary fertility is unlimited. He has 130 recipes for different preparations of the grain, These be has ‘im the bands of the traveling cooking sci which go about in Europe /teacuing the people how to render various foods palatable. ‘Ihey are doing their best to engender a popular interest in maize. Tobacco, tie potato and the tomato all cata from America originally. They have been | widely accepted in the old world, and it is| protable that corn will obtain equal recogni- tually. Being #0 cheap its genera adoption as an article of diet would make Europe richer. In that part of the world, sa in the far south, maize cannot be grown, be- cause the summers are not warm enough to ripen it, Accordingly, this vast market once | gained would be perpetual. This would be « great benefit to the farmers of the United States, into whose pockets a rise ®f only 5 cents a bushel in the price of the golden cereal woutd putone thousand millions of dollars m the | space of ten years, The Argentine Republic exports a good deal of maize to Earope, but it is of in.erior quality, commoniy “sweating” on | the long voyage through the tropics, EXPORTING CORNMEAL A good deal of troubie has been met with in the shipping of cornmeal to Europe from this | country, because of its liability to become sour. ‘This difficulty has been got over by putting the grain prelmivarily through ss kvown | +degermination.” nels are placed in a machine which breaks them up, the soft germinal parts being re- duced to flour and shaken out through sieves ‘These portions contain 5 per cent of oil, which quickly decomposes, #0 that meal that has not been treated in the manuer described will keep fresh for only tive or six weeks. When deger- minated, on the other hand, it will continue good for a year or more. In fact, it lasts as well as wheat or rye flour, which has a better enduring quality because’ it has a much less Percentage of fatty matter. Before being ex- ported the meal is kiln dried, so that no moist ture is left in it. The kind of maize sen- abroad from the United States is of the bard dent variety, because it deteriorates least rapidly. It is called in the trade “steamer corn.” DIFFERENT SPECIES OF CORK. There are five distinct species of corm—dent, flint, sweet, pop andsoft, Varieties are almost innumerable. In Nebraska alone seventy-tive different kinds are grown. All these are said to have been obtained by cuitivatica from one Primitive source—the zea tunica or “clothed corn,” each kernel of which is separate and inciosed in a husk by itself, like grains of wheat in ahead. ‘The indiaus are said to have produced regular markings and patterns in their ears of maize, each tribe having its own arrangement and colors of kernels, in order that members of one band may not stoal from the fields of another without detection. Pop- corn excites a great deal of astonishment abroad whenever its curions metamorphosis by heat is exhibited to the peonie. The phe- nomenon is explained by the fuct that the pansion of the water contained in each grain bursts the latter and turns it inside out, It is nothing more nor less than a wonderful little starch box filled wilh a multitude of smaller starch boxes arranged in formation which under the microscope is seen to resemble that of some crystals, moisture within, trans- formed into steam, breaks open the woody | outer husk, and out come the starchy contents. IN ENGLAND, Col. Murphy proposes to strike England next, about three months hence. Following | his usual plan he will begin operations with a | banquet, at which Ambassador Bayard will be | requested to preside, Several whoieszle | grocers in London who take au interes: in this | matter will do what they can to rurther the | cause. One of the most effective methods for iniroduc:ng the new food is to select in each imporiant town one grocery shop, wherem a few square feet are set apert for a»smail and a baker trained in the art of preparmg corn im various ways, Circulars are scattered broadcast inviting people to come and eat without charge. It is recommended that ex- porters of the cereal in the United States should put it up in bags of three to five pounds | an order that it may be sold w Each packaze ought to coutain information and recipes. The annual pack of canned sweet corn in this country amouuts to 3,590,000 cases of twenty-four tim caus each, Belore long there ought to be a big market in Europe for the product prepared m this shape. MURPHY BREAD IN GERMANY, | The —— above referred to have been | practiced in Germany with great success, al | ing the famine of rye in that country w enuty | time ago, when the czar shut off exports of this grain from Russia, hundreds of bakers in ber iin and other cities of the fatberiaud turned out great quantities of “Murphy bread,” as it is cailed—one-third maize and two-thirds rye. A loaf of such bread weighing five pounds sold for 15 cents, while a three-pound loaf of pare rye flour costs 1234 cents.

AMERICA'S EXORMOUS CROPS, Allof this is very good news to American farm ers. One gets a notion of the importance of the cora crop in the United States from the fact thag. i acreage planted with ma:ze in this coun single year is greater then the total area New England. New York and New Jerses. exceeds the whole surface area of the uni kingdom of Great Britain. aud it more equals the total cultivated lund in France, or Germany, or Austro-Hungary. Neariy one: twentieth of the land ruriace of this country is dc voied to corn. One-fourth of the entire ares of the state of Iowa, which beads the list af states in maize production, is planted with corn. Nevertheless. only 4 per cént of the corn crop of the United States has been exported during the last ten years. VARIOUS USES.

People in the south very commonly insist on having it ground fresh every twenty-four hours before it is to be used.
