The Javanese Village In Midway
Plaisanee to Be Closed
COULDN’T STAND TH—‘E DRAIN
{he Twenty-five Per Cent of Its Gross Re-
ccipts Demanded by the Exposition
Officials Made It Bankrupt—Com-
missioners, Accused.
CHICAGO, Aug. 29.—‘On Sept. 15 a third
payment will be made on the exposition
debenture bonds. The first payment, made .
two Weeks ago, was 10 per cent. The sec-‘
’ond payment of 10 per cent will be made
this week. The payment to be made Sept.
15 will be 20 per cent, thus clearing off near-
ly one-half the bonded indebtedness.
' IVednesday evening, a cenference was
held between Treasurer Seeberger and Aud-
itor Ackerman, after which it was stated
that the floating indebtedness had been cut
down to $568,000; There was in the hands
of the treasurer at that time $590,000. The
eight days from Aug. 24 to Aug. 31, inclu-
sive, were depended upon to average a net
daily income of $75,000. After paying the
‘10 per cfiit. on the bonds Aug. 30, Treasurer
Seeberger Will start Septl mber with cash
to the amount of nearly $150,000 andafloat-
ing debt of $568,000.
' The Javanese village in Midway plais-
ance will close tomorrow. The Javanese
say they are unable to meet the 25 per cent
of gross receipts demanded by the World’s
fair directors and must quit. Their village
has been one of the most attractive shows
On the plaisance.
» Commissioners Accused.
The sensational charges against Com-
missioners Mercer of Wyoming andABeeson
of Oklahoma of corruption, were the means
of bringing out an unusual amount of talk
Seemed to favor a thorough investigation,
and if the accusation proved true to prose-
cute them for malfeasance in office. Many
Of the commissioners favor a thorough
overhauling of all the judges of award rec-
ommended by either of the accused com-
missioners.
rl‘he commissioner said he believed Mr.
Thacher, chairman of the executive com-
mittee of awards, should go through the
list of judges and strike out the name of
every man who was selected on the recom-
mendation of either Beeson or Mercer. In
this way even the slightest suspicion of
taint can be removed from the department.
Continuing, he said, “Commissioners
Beeson and Mercer have interested them-
selves in the appointment of more judges
than any two members'of the national com-
mission.” .
Mercer’s Vohement Denial.
Commissioner Mercer is vehement in his
denial that he is guilty of any wrongdoing.
He claims he knows nothing, about the at-
tempt tofsqueeze $10,000 out of Mr. \Volf-
schmitt, the Russian whisky and wine ex-.
hibitor, to insure him the first premium on
his exhibit, beyond that which he has read
in the papers. “I never heard of Mrs.
Harmon,” he said, “until she was intro-
duced to me Saturday in front of the Agri-
Cultural building by Mr. Beeson. Mr. Bee-
son said she was an old friend of his. An
hour or so later I learned she had been ar- .
rested for trying to obtain money from an
exhibitor to secure an award in his favor.”
Preparations are complete for the pro-
duction of Shakespeare’s “As You Like It”
calcium and electric lights will be used on
the stage, and the ground constituting the
auditorium will be illuminated and deco-
rated with Chinese lanterns and colored in- ,
candescent lights. The chorus will consist
of 50 voices trained by Professor Tomlins.
The Columbia exposition orchestra of 60
pieces will be used.
The Jewish Congress.
President Bonney of the World’s con-
gress auxiliary opened the Jewish denomi-
national congress at the Art palace yester—
day afternoon. The large hall of Colum-
bus was filled. On the platform with Pres-
ident Bonney were Rabbi I. L. Leucht of
New Orleans, Rabbi Isaac 7M. Wise of Cin-
cinnati, Rabbi G. Gotheil of New York,
Rabbi K. Kohler of New York and Rabbi
Emil G. Hirsch of cage. Dr. Hirsch
acted as chairman of he session. ,
beautiful tribute to Jesus as a man, but
disclaimedhisbeing the Saviour of man-
kind. But as tohis characterhhis teachings
and his life, the speaker could not utter
higher praise. He showed how. the. syna-
gogue preceded the church, and he main-
tained that Jesus received his education in
the synagogue and pointed out the close
resemblance between many of the sayings
Of Jesus and old platitudes of Talmud.
' “The so called sermon on the mount,
with all of its grand and noble words, ifthe
apostles are to be believed,” he continued,
“is nothing more or less than the plati-
tudes of the Jewish synagogue.”

When the speaker commanded 0113813,
nearly every seat in the hall was filled an
unmistakable evidenceof'the general land,

Chaplain Haddaway prayed briefly and. in;
a voice inaudible at a distance of more than"
10 feet from the desk for an especial gift of“
wisdom and judgment to rightly settle the
great question before the house. .
After the reading of the journal Mr.‘
Wever of New York appeared at the bar of'
the house on the arm’ of his colleague, Gen—,.
eral Tracey, and was sworn. in by the‘
speaker. ' , l
The resolution contained in the order of
procedure on the silver :question was re-::
ported by the clerk, providing for a vote'
first upon the coinage of silver at the pres-
ent ratio of 16 to 1. » 5 L
. Silver Men Badly Beaten.
Representative Bailey of Texas asked if,;
in the event of all the amendments included
in the order being defeated, it would be in
order to propose an additional amendment
germs-in to the subject.
Speaker Crisp replied that as at present
advised he would answer no; that the order
provides exhaustively all that the house
may consider, but that when the time came
to formally present the uestion the gentle-
man from Texas might heard. 4 ‘
Representative McMillin of Tennessee
desired to offer an amendment providing
for the free coinage of the product of the
silvermines of the United States, but Mr.
Bland objected to even having it read, say-
ing that such a proposition was not free
coinage at all. 5
The roll was then called upon the amend-
ment to the Wilson bill; providing for. the
free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1.
It resulted—yous, 123:5 nays, 225. Messrs,
Shell and Graham were paired, the former
in favor of free coinage. _
The announcement of the vote was re-
ceived with applause and some surprise at '
the majority against free coinage, it being
nearly double the largest estimate made
by the antisilver committee. Mr. Bland,
from a seat at the extreme left of the speak~
er, smiled grimly as he heard the result,
nervously making to and fro on his pivot
chair. The figures show that a majority of
the Democratic members voted against free -.
coinage.
The Majority Increased.
Mr. Bland asked a yea and nay vote On
17 tel and secured it. As the clerk began
calling the roll Mr. Bryan walked down ‘
the center aisle calm and grave and around
to where the silver leader sat. They sat in
consultation some time, and then' Mr.
Bryan by easy stages made his way back
to his own seat. The vote on the question
of free coinage at the ratio of 17 to 1 re-
sulted—yeas. 100; nays, 24:0. ’

votes, the members ofthat party withhold-
ing their votes, there were several negative
votes from those who voted in favor of a
ratio of 16 to 1. .
Mr. Bland then offered the amendment
providing for free coinage at a ratio of 18to
1 and demanded yeas and nays. There
were protests against this and cries of “No,”
but 85 gentlemen seconded the request,
and the roll was again called. On this
questiorrthe ycas were 102 and nays 239.
The next amendment was that providing
for free coinage at a ratio of 19 to 1. Yeas
and nays were demanded and ordered. The
roll call showed the following vote: Yeas,
105; nays, 237. . ,

jected—yous, 119; nays, 222.

;Allison act was defeated—yous, 186; nays,
13. 5
The vote then came on the adoption of

clared adopted amid the cheers'of the anti-
gilver men by a vote of 240. to 109. 5
