Tho Exposition Building presents nowadays
a scone of activity and industry. Out of tho

material order is rapidly being brought, and.
numerous miniature houses and ornamented

.’rom morning till night. busily em
ployed lu aiding exhibitors to secure eligible
spaces, and materially assisting them with bis
advice in regard to tbo erection of stalls. Hu
Informed a Tuihdne reporter yesterday that the
work of preparation was much further advanced
than at a corresponding period last year, and
that bo expected to have every arrangement
jomrlctod In time for tho opening night. Tbo
general outlook is most encouraging, and as far
as can bo judged, tbo Inter-State Exposition
promises to bo mure successful than in previous
reasons. The dcimrtmnut of natural history will
bo better roprerontod than over before. Prof.
Wortbcu, Slate Geologist, is busily engaged ar
ranging his collection of minerals in the south
projection of tho building, nod in tbo
same vicinity may bo found Prof.
Ward, of llocbcster, N, Y„ with his
extensive collection of fossils. ''Mr. James Vick,
tbo well-known llorist of Boubcslcr. has secured
a apace, 4 by IK) feet, for an exhibition of cut
flower*. The Connecticut ftlalo Board of Agri
culture has telegraphed for apace in which to
show a collection of frulto. Other largo exhib
itors are still coming in from all parts of the
country, nod the immense building on tho lako
frout will no doubt be crowded to its utmost ca

STREET RAILROADS.
BLIX ISLAND AVKXDD LINE.
Bevoral communications have lately been sent
to Tin: TmnoNß from parties complaining at tho
action of tho West Bido Cor Company In still
continuing to run its liluo Island cars over tho
liandolrh street lino instead of Laving them run
on Madison street, as they did previous to tho
repairing of that thoroughfare. Mr. Lake,
Superintendent of the Company, wlblich it under
stood that tho present arrangement is only an
experiment, and mil only bo continued if it ia
decided to bo m the interest of tho public. It can
certainly make no difference to the Couipuuv
whether the cars run on Madison or llandolph
' streets. The fact is that, in running on Modinou
street, tho Jllao Island cars and tho Madison
. cars travel together for the distance of a milo to
Halslod street. Tho idea of retaining them on
llandolph is simply to cover more ground. lie-
BidcH, it is only a walk of two blocks further to
roach the cars for any one phase business hap
pens to be south of Madison ntroet.
■CROSS-TOWN CAIW.
Id regard to the cross-town cars, Mr. Lake
states that the Company is uncertain whether
or not to reinstate them. No consultation has
yet be en held with the Bomb Bide Company on
tho subject.
Mr. H. B. Cobb, President of the South Bid®
Company,, stated lo a Tittuuue reporter yester
day that it wan doubtful if the cross-town oars
would bo started again. They wore stopped of
necessity when tho work of repairing Madison
street was begun, mid no steps pact yet been
taken towards putting them again on tho lino.
In his opinion thov woiuno real accommoda
tion to tlio public, their popiilanly consisting in
tlio fact that they carried paesongets double
distance for a single faro. At the time they
wore started there was a sufficiout reason for it,
in that many men Jiving iu the southern part of
tho city had their places of business on the
West Hide. Mr. Cobh does not slate authorita
tively that the nrosM-town care will not bo use 1,
but says that no arrangements have yet been
mode for putting thorn again on the track.

Recorder of Deeds is the only person In moot
counties of whom an abetroct can bo bad at ail;
that land haa always boon sold and bought and
money loauod on eucU abstracts ; aud that the
people have faith in the abstracts so made ? If
the Recorder of Deeds hi Cook County is BO
negligent and careless, aud generally unreliable,
—so editorials and interviews in Tub Tkibuh*
imply.—bow is it that Handy, Simmons Jt Co,
can do such very reliable work ? They may
' get tbo names of grantor and grantee
Slid such other particulars as they pl&cu upon

they do got most of their information from the

ih o y do not. when an abstract is ordered, 1 pro-
Mime, rit down m tlteir ofilco and make it fiom
matoiial they have there, but, using their indices

material (or a complete abstract. Itlsanabstiact
of the records, uud not of the original insiru
moots which people want. Who cares what the
ungiual instrument contains if it is not recoided ?
Men buy land and loau money upon titles as they
appear of record, aud then only are they pio
tcctC'i as tuiioueut puichasers. Two of the most
v doable features of on abstract are the time of
tihug for record aud the book aud page where

these items at second hand '( The names of the

if our Recorder's office ia’auob a "political
(oUrmary,” as you eall it, if the records he
makes are so unreliable, will not jou seal in
advertising ibs matter tend to drive capital from
thia city and county ? You strike 100 deep, and
tour argument proves 100 much. If the rec
ords are unreliable. it ia impossible to obtain a
reliable abstract of title. All that tb« beat men
can do in that Jevent is to furnish a reliable ab
(•tract of an unreliable record. If the record*
arc rtii nblo, then why can not the aamo lie*
curder. uho in the discharge of official duly
made them so. alao in tho discharge of official
duty matte a reliable abstract of them ?
Why should not Cook County keep tract in

tion which a Recorder's office ought to fnrnisb.
na well as other counties ? Our records aro so
nmiioldv that they tail to inform the public of
the condition of titles without a very groat and
a wholly unnecessary amount of labor. There
are already, since October, 1971. at least eigh
teen largo volumes known as “Indexes," con
taining names of grantor and grantee. The his
tory of tbo title to a given lot or block can be
placed on a single page, and one could then find
at the Recorder's offico the information widen
now roust bo so extravagantly paid for. Hmco
Wtlmanns & Thickko's Indices have been

CnifAoo. Sopt. 3.—ln your issue of Tuesday,
Aug. 31, I noticed a communication, signed •* *lB
a Work." nnd the following morning n short nr
flclo of indorsement, and on the third day
(Thursday) a splurge from a "Bona-Fide Union
Man." Now. if I may bo allowed tho privilege,
I, as a Union man, should like to express some
of my views upon this subject, as none of tho
above gentlemen have struck tho point at issue,
except in a cue-sidcd manner. Sumo weens ago
the newspaper-publishers called upon tho Union
for a reduction, and when tho. matter was
brought up in tho Union. It was deemed advisa
ble by that august body to settle it bv arbitra
tion. Now. it to happens that tho newspaper
printers and job-printers all belong to tbo same
Union. At (what might bo called) onr meeting
the job bands voted unanimously for a reduction
of the nowsoaner men. but when they wore ashed
to make a 'alight rcduclion they squealed like a
stuck mg. and cried nut to tho uenepapor men r
“Gentlemen, all we want is to bo lot alone,"
‘‘Don't put your fingers in our dish," etc.
Since the iiro of ’7l wo have bad two reduc
tions. Wo have not only been reduced in pav,
but in tho hours of work, so that, taken all in
all, it amounts to about $1 per week at tho toast:
while in tho meantime tho Job printers have bad
no reduction at all, imd, in fact, have always been
paid higher wages proportionately than Hie piece
men (morning papcis excepted). “Eighteen
hollars a Week" is rigiit when bo asserts that
bo darn not speak bis mind Just as bn felt at the*
last meeting. Of the vast assemblage 1 saw
them ail, and heard but few, ns a couple
monopolized both tho timo and door. I have
boon n member ot tho Union eleven years ; have
tiovor taken any part in it. in a speech-making
way, and common t.ens n . Justice, and reason,
load tnn to assert that tlio Job printers should ro
duro their scale. Eighteen dollars per week is
fair wages, and is all, X believe, the proprietors
can consbtontiv afford 10 pav.
In conclusion, lot mo say ; Do not give as any
more la'qol -W'c.l. •* Metropolitan," etc., in ours.
Do not wait till tho horse is out and then stmt
Ibo baru-door, Lot us pull together, nows and

COURT-HOUSE STONE.
WHAT WII.L COUNTT OAH DO.
The action of tbo County Board Thursday In
selecting tbo atone for tho construction of tho
now Court-Honso was widely discussed yester
day. Some wero found to characterize the ac
tion os hasty, while the majority indorsed it ns
wise aud timely.
Tho opinion of a stone-man, not upon the
wisdom uf tlio action, but upon tho natural io
suit, may not bo uninteresting. A Mr. Adams,
of tbo tlrm of Woruer A Adams, owners of
quarries at Joliet, was In tbo city, and in con
versation with Commissioner Clough said that
the action of tho Board In ordering that tbo
stone should bo the product of Cook or Will
Counties practically gave the job of
furnishing tbo most of tho stone
to oue mao, from tbo fact that
there was bnt one quarry in tbo two comities
that ooold supply stone oyer 21 inches in thick
ness. 80 far as Will County was concerned there
conld bo uo competition in tbs lotting of the
contract, for tbo reason tbot tbo quality of tho
stone there compared with Cook County or Le
nient stone, made it practically impossible to use
it. Tho Will County stone won much harder
than tho Lomout stone, and as a consequence
more expensive to quarry and dross. Thors
was as much difference, he paid,
between tbo Will County and the Lomoot stone
in tho matter of hardness as there was between
common sandstone and limestone, which entirely
precluded all competition in tlio matter.
Ho regarded tbo rcsolotlou of tbo Board on
tho stone question as practically an award of the
contract in advance of proposals being received,
for, said ho. “we could oulcompoto with Lomout
in the matter if our quarries bad been given to
us ; or in other words, if tho stono cost nothing
except to got it out."

Collector Evans, of the South Town Board,
states that Judge Hickey yesterday informed
him that there was no limit lo tho amount of

It was a matter that was loft entirely to the dis

facts It puts a different phase on tho squabble
now going on in tho Town Hoards for the audit
ing of salaries. Tho County Treasurer may pay
just what percentage ho pleases up to a certain
amount. Tho a.ssottion is a very broad one, and
requires some explanation from Judge Hickey.

History of Hio Exploits in Chicago,
Chicago has a local Interest In tho subject
mentioned in tho following extract, taken from
tho Buffalo Cnnriir of last Wednesday, and, as
details concerning tbo operator are lacking, it
becomes (lie duty of Tun Tiuucne chronicler to
submit them:
florae weeks ago Eugene 11. Hendry, loffes an<l sole
manager of Urn Hrtlieada Mineral Springa, Waukesha,
Win., made lil.i ftj poaraiKp in tbti i lly ami formed a
Imslnesa nrqualntan-’o wltli Dr. IV, It. Crural). Ho set
forth in glowing terras tlio excellent nualUJes and rep*
iilnUan of (tie water, ami gave the Doctor to under
stand that lie war desirous of e*tiliHidilng an agen ry
In Ohio. Finally r.n agreement was porforlod whereby
Dr. Crumb was to have the sole ngen-y for the flttto
named for a consideration of s■!,■ on, o;ic-«lxlh down
and the balance In Installinciits. The 51,W) wan p»ld,
mul the euleriTPlng nmnujcr, niter congntilullnf
Ids patron nod wiohiug him prosperity, took his de
parture.
Dr, Crumb set out to perfect Ids claim. Ws under*
stand tho first town ho struck In Ohio bad an agency
for tbo celnhrntnd llctbesda water. whhh rutber sur
prl-,« d biin, to siy thu lost. Ho hid tbo agreement,
Ind paid hli flr«t Installment, and thero limit bo eorne
mistake. With this idea bn routlnued on from one
dty »o nnntlirr, ami, finding that each and every place
bud an established agency, bo became convinced that
something was wrenr, ami came back homo, probably
very Indignant at the way ho bad been Imposed upon.
Taking the advk-n of blc lawyers, he succeeded, with
tho help of tbo lelegtapb. In luring Mr. Hendry to this
city, lie arrived yeiterday, and t>wk up hla (purlers
at the Mansion House. This proved but a temporary
resting place, however, for a warrant In tbo bauds of
Doputy*BherltT lieu flcoil, who served with his accus
tomed alacrity, am! (ho Icsseo and sate manager of the
Iklhcsda Springs was taken Into custody. How the
case will bo dlsjx«ed of remains to bo seen.
Hendry, according to the Information fur
nlaUod by those who have boon in close busl-
Doie relations with blm for a long time, belongs
to that class mentioned in a recent issue of this
paper as ‘‘the moo of splurge,” ami, strange co
incidence, ho comes recently from tho scone of
Ralston's glories and downfall. Ho has boon
fondofrbow nod display, and is one of those
fidgety follows who aro always turning tho world
ups.de down and causing moro confiding people
than himself to wonder at his exploits, while he
pulls the wool over their innocent oyoa and
draws the money from their pockets by oft-io
pcated promised of largo returns and brilliant
prospects fur their future.
cincAno has m:kn ms favothte fif.i.d
of operations, and tho Utand Pacific Hotel bis
headquarters when hero. Nothing m that groat
caravansary was too good for him ana bis
friends. lie loves his wine, Havana cigar, fast
horses, and faster women. Ho was particularly
fond of lavishing bis ill-earned wealth on tbo
demi-monde, and cared not for tbo scandalous
reports it gave rise to. Uotbonda was bis hobby
while boro, there, and everywhere, and much is
tbe capital ho haa made out of it. Ho dressed
well; mare raro diamonds, tho most costly
Jettolry. and drove in equipages drawn by tbe
quickest of horses. Ho gave everybody around
town to understand that bo was somebody from
somewhere. Rut. Judging from tbo fix ho is
now in, and the information given by parties
acquainted with hie record, Prince Eugene It.
Hendry, solo lessee and managsrof thobethoeda
Hnring, is in tbe toils, and his days of splurge
aro over.
“CAPTAIH” nCJCDUV,
an bin advertisements had It, la 27 yearn old, and
went from ouo of the Western Slates to Califor
nia Homo yearn ago. Whllo in Ban Fraaoinco ho
heard of IJethoada. and. after communicating
with Col. Ihchard Dunbar, the owner of tbo
apting, waa appointed agent (or tho aale of tbo
water m that part of tho country, and acted
Mquaroly enough until tiio thought of Buturglng
entered his head. Col. Danhar wanted to retire
from active duty at Waukesha, and Hendry,
hearing of it, managed to soonro a lease of . the
apriog for two years. To take the business in
hand, ho looked about for some one who had
capital, and fell in with 11. L. Tiffany, a former
Ihtffalonian and an old army veteran, who, on
promise of receiving a position as traveling
agent for tho mineral water, advanced him SSOO
In cash.
trroN nsAcnnm waukcsiu,
liondry began to da*h around and mako things
tly in that usually quiet burg, and tho country
papers puffed him m the moat extravagant man
ner. Xu a little advertising sheet called the
Ikthesda Advocate ho lauded himself in a
most gushing manner:
In all his addresses and communications he
was careful to put tho title of “ Captain ”to his
name, although not enlliloil to it. He opened
up business rotations with all Waukesha, and
blew his own trumpet In a manner sublime to
contemplate. Bhortiy after entering upon hie
duties and making a little money and allowing
his creditors to rest quietly, ho begin a fast life,
and continued It uninterruptedly, His visits to
Chicago wore frequent—ln fact, he spent almost
as much of his tune boro as in Waukesha, and
dashed about in high ptyle.
UIS EXTBAYAdASCE ABO BECELEfI* HABIT*
led bim to roach out fur ait tbo money be could
obtain, *od UJb omplovce worn left in the lurch.
Tiffany was among the number. Ills money waa
not forthcoming, and lio waa compelled to wait
while agents here and in other place* had to sub
mit to the dictate* of Hendry regarding money
matters,and in some case* are now mournful over
losses caused by him. J. It. Morrill, the Betbcsda
Water agent in ibu Grand Pacific Hotel, and the
company which owns that hostelry, would hko to
sco lloudry for several h innrerln of dollars.
The Buffalo Courier might have added to its
article tho fact that Hendry sold tbo right to
dispose of Bethesda water lu Ohio to. Mr. Chase,
of Cleveland, aud to a Cincinnati man, with the
understanding that they wore to bo tho solo
agents, aud this without either knowing of the
swindle until Dr. Crumb appeared at Cleveland
and saw how badly he had been taken In. He
gave 41,000 iu cash and 45,000 in drafts to Hen
dry, aud now propose# to put that gentleman la
the Auburn Penitentiary if there is any law la
Now York State to roach him. A private letter
received yesterday shows that Hendry waa still
in tbo Buffalo Jail, with no prospect* of getting
out.
When he waa last In Chicago Tiffany secured
bi* presence by the *id of a Constable long
enough to got a judgment before Justice Eber
hardt for 4300, aud If any property 1* found
other than mineral water, he will have an execu
tion issued to a few days.
TUB LIABILITIES
of “ Cspt.” Hendry are estimated at 430,000,
and his assets noltitug to speak of. Tyler it Co.,
private banker* of Waukesha, ore said to have
suffered to the extent of sd.lioo in cashing Dr.
Crumb's and other drafts. Ur. Kastman, Hut
dry's bookkeeper at tbo Hprings, is also a loser
by his employer's recklessness.
Whether Col. Duubor layout of pocket by
Hendry's operations or not U not known, but
who profess to know say it was impossible
for him to escape. The publisher* of the Wau
kesha paper* are said to be among those “left,"
and will have to pocket (he loss, and swear for
the ten thousandth time that they will Host so
one.
Fortunately ths object of so mash present

THE CUSTOM-HOUSE.
The Monibors of tlio New Com*
mission Begin Opera
tion*.
Another Set of Holes toCBe Dur—Col
lecting Information.
(Jen. Sooy Smith’* Opinion,
The third examination of Chicago’s new Fed
eral building was begun yesterday by tbo Com
mission of seven lately appointed for that pur
pose. It ts, perhaps, a gratifying fact that this
new Commission Ins been made to constat of so
many men. It shows, if anything, (ho growing
respect which tho Government has for tbo half
finished building which it owns in Chicago,
Tho firm Commission was made up of only three
men (or four including Potter); tho second was
made twice as largo ; now, however, tho heads
of affairs at Washington have laid over and
capped (ho climax with seven selections from
the wisdom of tlio country, and oven appended
to them a short-hand writer.
tub cosmumiow
who began (heir Bosnians yesterday, are named
as follows : Goa. W. U. Franklin (engineer), of
Hartford; Gen. J. 11. Wilson (engineer), of New
York; N. J. ilradloe (architect), of Boston;
Henry Wbitcslouo (architect), of Louisville:
John McArthur, Jr. (architect), of Philadelphia;
Andrew Kennedy (builder) of St. Louis ; it. J.
Dobbins (builder), of Philadelphia; and Benja
min Durfeo (stenographer), of Washington.
Tho latter being tho recorder of tbo doinga of
the Commission, and not a member with a vote.
Ho wao detailed for tho purpose by the Treasury
Department.
Tho members of tho Commission began to ar
rive Thursday evening, ami tho two engineers,
who brought tip tho roar, wore promptly on baud
vchtorjay raornmg. About Id o'clock tho break
fast which tho tirand Pacific had furnished to
tlio Commission began to settle, and by 11 tho
kovou had discussed tho weather and other top
ics sufliclcntly, whereupon they made up a pro
cession an 1 walked ovet to Mr. Hannford’s Jittlo
brick hut. Having ejected Moj. Woods from his oc
cupancy of the muor mom, they proceeded to
organise, aud tho evening papor reporters be
gan to stand on one foot in tho outer vestibule,
with tho rotund Pratt to keep tbo Seven Wise
Mon out of llioir clutches. They woro well pro
tected, for what with Superintendent Hansford,
tbo placid; MaJ. Wood, tho (terco: aud Cor
poral Pratt, tho übaso, ho would havo boon a
bravo roportor indeed who would have tried to
outer tbo presence.
Thus guarded from harm, tbe members pro*
ceodcd to elect Qon. Franklin Chairman of the
body, and then entered into a discussion as to
tho methods to bo taken to ascertain the state uf
tho foundations, and oilier necessary facts. One
of the lh>t results tiiat grow out of tho delibera
tions was an order to dig moro holes in tbo
much perforated soil of tho block. A
f;ai)R ct men woio accordingly set at work
n corner, a few feet west of tho
pnot chiefly examined by tbo Chicago Commis
sion, and tho dinging of n largo hole was carried
on with that deliberate haste which alrrais cliar
octonzis tbo Government laborer. Another
smaller gang of mon were employed in gelling
down below tho foundation in the basement of
tbo Clark street front. It is pretty evident that
tho Commission intend to dig much and lay
b&ro tbo mud under the structure, it
thoro bo such a thing. How much
was accomplished in the digging was not to ba
known, inasmuch aa tho walcblul I'ratt locked
the door a« soon as any one manifested a desire
to even look therein. Evidently this body of
seven is close communion to tho coro.
Tho quoation of leveling tho building also
came up in tbo Icasion, and it was voted to em
ploy a competent engineer now lu tbo service of
tho Government to take a new sot of levels
throughout. Tho name of the person to be em
ployed was not divulged, if known.
OETTISQ rarORMATIOM,
Although tho announcement had been made
that tho present Commission Intended to base
tboir conclusions entirely upon their own exam
ination, yet they determined to show respect to
their predecessors by addressing a corarauni.’a
iion to Mayor Colvin, asking him to furnish such
documents, bearing upon tbe finding of tho City
Commission, as ho might have. This wilt not
be a particularly wearisome job for tho
head of tho. city, for tbe reason that
he probably bos not a pen-scratch on tbe sub
ject outside tbo actual report. All tho facts
and figures posiosacd by the Commission of
six aro probably in tho bead and on tho books
of City-Kngiueor Choabrougb, and it partaken
of tbo jocund to ask tho Mayor to furnish facts
and figures on any subject.
Another source of information was opened up
by a vote of tho Commission asking J. C. Ran
kin, tho former Superintendent, to moot them.
He should bo possessed of data of value.
Tbo Cammisalou added to their other duties
that of passing through, over, and around tho
building, and casually examining it in its parts.
They found a small force of mon at work on the
engines, ropes, etc., putting them in order, and
protecting them from tho weather by coats o L
paint and otherwise.
After tbo business of tho day, as above noted,
had been performed, tbo Commission wended its
leisurely way bock to tho Oroud Pacific, and in
the evening dissipated bvsittendiog tbo theatre
under tho pilotage of Mr. Drake.
In tbe morning, while tbo members of tbe
Commission wore getting ready to undertake
their work.
OBH. THLUAH SOOT BiUTU,
a member of'the first Commission, called npon
them and volunteered any assistance that lay in
his power to aid them in arriving at their con
clusions. lie also offered to procure the at
tendance of other Chicago gentlemen if they
wished it. While at tbo hotel, a reporter of tho
Evening Journal had a conversation with Qou.
Smith, which is thus printed :
Iterwrtcr—Do tod think tho present Committee will
aak the advice or Chicago architects or engineers 7
God, Bmitb— l rather think they prefer to work
alone.
It.—Don’t yon believe the soil here is of inch a pe
culiar nature that It requites great experience with It
In order to correctly decide such a question as these
gentlemen are to decide 7
Oen. B.—They are all of national reputation, and I
do not appreheud that they will be troubled with the
difflculty of which you speak.
It.—liow do you explain the fart that (be (wo parlies
who have already sat on tho building arrived at such
opposite reeulta in regard to the aupportlng weight of
the soil?
Gen. B.—One cause of tho difference was that the
Committee had different data from which to work.
The Washington Committee were told that the weight
of the building when completed would be s,UOO
pounds to the square foot. The local Committee were
Informed that the weight would be but a, OOO pounds
to tbe same area. This is a matter that ought to be
determined by tbe parties at Washington, and as there
•corns to be doubt os to tbe probable pressure, 1 uu
deratand the Commission has to aolto that problem.
Without Us solution they cannot arrive at a correct re>
suit.
B.—Our City Engineer, Mr. Ohcsbrougb, has eald
that it waa a very simple matter to get at the support
ing power of the ground, Waa your teat the same as
that of the local Commit 100 7
Qsn. a.—No; we had a different, and, I think, a
better method. They used the simple lever on a Urge
surface. We bad a dead weight of 1,700 pounds on a
square foot, and fouudthata greater depression waa
made in the same time than did the local architects.
It.—Was not that owing to the difference in the sur
face 7
Oen. ft.—No: because the depression docs not vary
regularly with tbo surface. I think the foundation
might stand a pressure of a, OOO pounds to tho square
foot. Hut It ought to be lorn down on account of the
Kr atone. We want a building here which wilt be a
d and national pride, end one that will bo looked
upon with admiration longer than for a single genera
tion. This la not a mere local matter. The whole na
tion takce an interest In It, and it would be much bet
ter to have a delay now of two yean occupied In tear
tug down and rebuilding than to go on from tbo pres
ent position and have a Ciutom-ilous* a little sooner
and be ashamed of It,
It.—Do you thluk that the decision of this Commit
tee will hasten action?
Oen. B.—l do not doubt but that tbelr conclusions
will be flusl with Secretary Brletuw.
From tho professional weight of tbo gentle
men who are to give the final verdict iu tho case
of the Custom-House, it is not to be enoposod
tbit they will proceed with great rapidity in
tbolr work, and the prospect te, a* far a* can
now be judged, that the time to be consumed by
them wul not be less than by either of tbo other
bodies. Hence an anxious public need not ex
pect anything like au opinion under a month at
tho very least.
