HW IT WAS t A BENEFIT DAY, TOO. rjic Gate Receipt Will Go Into the Fund' For the Ueneflt of the Sufferer From the Cold Storage Fire Other Events Occurring on the Fnlr Ground. Chicago, July 17. The lost open Sunday of the world's fair exposition did not show any improvement upon other Sundays in point of attendance, but as nearly all passholdere paid the entrance fee of GO cents, the fund for the benefit of the sufferers from the cold storage fire was increased in a sub stantial way. Tho morning was uncomfortably warm, but a shower at noon cooled the atinosphero a few degrees. The pass gates were almost entirely ignored, the holders of the photographio privileges in nearly every instance buying a piece of pasteboard bearing tho words, "Ad mit one, benefit of the Bufferers of the cold storage fire." The crowd which the evening was expected to bring out did not materialize. ' The outward appearance of the fair did not differ in ajiy respect from that of last Sunday save for the emblems of mourning on the engine houses and tho flags at half mast. Nearly all of the displays made by foreign exhibitors in manufacturers' building were draped while many American exhibits were closed. The greatest number of, vis itors thronged the art palace, the Krupp fan exhibit and the convent. The laisance which always holds the Sun day crowds was a busy place all day and impreseed upon the concessionaries more firmly than ever the idea that their part of the fair should be kept open. Music was furnished during the after noon and evening by the Cincinnati, Chicago and Iowa Stato bands, this feature of "Heroes' day" being much enjoyed and appreciated by moderately Bized crowds. Rev. L. P. Mercer of the New Church temple spoke at festival hall during the afternoon on the subject, "How Readest Thou 7" The attendance was not large, the warm weather no doubt keeping many away. Professor Tonilins directed a portion of the Apollo club which sang the hymns and Arthur Maas was at the or gan. The platform and pulpit were draped in black. Mr. Mercer took his text from Luke xxv, 20: "And behold a certain lawyer stood up and tempted him, saying 'Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life.' Ho said unto him, 'what is written in the law? how readest thou?"' The sermon was a good one, having, however, but little mention of the he roeB of the recent fire, except at the close where the speaker eulogized the memory of the dead men and eaid the occurrence had brought to mind tho fact that it was sometimes harder to die than to live. He know their souls would rest in peace after the terrible ordeal they had passed through to reach the kingdom of heaven. A space about 20 feet square in tho rotunda of the administration , building directly under the great dome is en closed by a strong iron fence. Work has begun on a model of the United States treasury at Washington to bo inado of Columbian coins, and erected within the enclosure. The work will continue several days and when com plete a strong force of guards will guard the precious edifice night and ay. The paid admissions during the day were 40,401. It is estimated that tho relief fund by concessionaries will amount to 5,000, which added to the proceeds from ticket sales will swell the fund by, about 80,000. f More DlsHatUfled Visitors. There is war amomr the reaper and harvest exhibitors at the world's fair. All the mower and harvester exhibitors of tho United States with one single ex ception havo risen in revolt against the plans of John Boyd Thaoher, and united in an ultimatum withdrawing their exhibits frdm competition unless a radical change bo made in the pro gram. Trouble has been browing for several days over the announcement on July 8 that the harvesting exhibitors must bo prepared for a field trial on July 17 at Wayne, His. All the exhib itors except a Chicago firm have joined in a protest to Mr. Thachor, claiming that field trials are expensive and un satisfactory,and that insufficient notice una ueou given.

After the bill had finally been adopted the reichstag was declared closed. The opposition organs contend that the majority of 10 in favor of the bill is not large enough to cause the govern ment to exult, especially as it was won by, the chancellor giving pledges to the agrarians and anti-Semites that will certainly give him trouble to fulfill. But the government, with reason, does exult, while its opponents fail to con ceal their chagrin. Vexation and dis appointment were plainly manifested throughout hostile speeches.
