WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.—The world's fairspecial,comprising four of the most magnificently equipped and luxuriously furnished trains ever put on the road by the I'ullman Palace Cur Company, rolled out of the Haltimorc & Ohio station at U:."0 p. in. bound for the city of Chicago. The distinguished passengers aboard the trains, who are to be the guests of tho world's fair city for the" next four days, are the sonators and representatives of the Fifty-second congress, tho foreign ministers to the United States and forty of the leading jourualists of the national capital. Hon. Adlai T. Kwing, chairman of the citizens' committee, of Chicago, has general charge of the party, but each of the separate trains is u.iucr tho direct charge of an Illinois congressman, the represenatives from the world's fair state having naturally constituted themselves, to some extent, a committee 011 entertainment during the journey. The several trains followed eaeli other in succession, with intervals of fifteen minutes I'Ctween the various sections in order to insure safety.

CliicfiKO'g I'rnpftrutlmifi.

CurcAGo, Feb. 20.—The special trains carrying the congressional tourists are expected to reach Chicago at 3 p. m. to-day. They will be met by tho reception committee, who will escort the visitors to the various hotels to which tliey are assigned. l'rogrumme In Detilil.

In order to inform the visitors of the details of the programme the committee has prepared a printed "itinerary" in substance as follows: The special trains will arrive at the Grand Central depot over the Baltimore & Ohio road about 8 o'clock. Visitors will find carriages waiting and will bo driven to the hotels assigned them. A reception will bo extended at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Potter Palmer, Lake shore drive, at 9 p. m., carriages leaving the Grand Pacific hotel, the Auditorium hotel and the Palmer house at S:30. No Sunday programme has been prepared, but the visiting newspaper men will bo tendered a reception at the Press club at 3:30 p. 111.

To the Fnlr Grounds.

On Monday tho trains leave the Van Buren stroet depot at 10 a. m. for the Columbian exposition grounds. Carriages will be at the Palmer house and the Grand Pacific hotel at 9:80 to convey the guests to the depot. Visitors stopping at the Auditorium will find the Van Buren street station directly opposite on the lake front. Arriving at Jackson park at 10:J0, two hours will be devoted to an inspection of the exposition grounds and buildings. Light luncheon will be served in the woman's building. Leaving the grounds at 12:JS0, the trains will proceed to Washington park, where at 1 o'clock luncheon will be served in the club house.

Jiiiiicinets ami Addr«'s««\s.

At 2 o'clock the party will return to the Van Buren street depot in time to hear the address of Hon. Stewart L. Woodford at the Auditorium, the exercises to be under the direction of the Union League club. In the evening a banquet will be given the visiting senators and representatives by the Commercial club at the Grand Pacific hotel. On the same evening, between the hours of Sand 11, the women of the visiting delegation will be tendered a reception at the lioine of Mrs. H. O. Stone, 20!if Prairie avenue. This reception will be under the auspices of the woman's committee of the world's congress auxiliary. The time for the departure of trains on Tuesday will he announced later.

What Tlifj* Will

Everything is to be genuine in the :ception of congress, lie essentially genuine focture will be tli presented by the exposition buildings at Jackson park. The visiting delegation will find there an overwhelming amount of unfinished work, surrounded by conditions so unfavorable to picturesque effect as to convince anyone that Chicago is depending 011 her ability to impress the visitors favorably by the very force of what' she has accomplished, without adventitious aid.

As the train draws into the Midway piaisance entrance they will see tlic women's bnilding, practically completed outside and well advanced in its interior finish. The Illinois building just to the left and the fine arts galleries- still beyond will demonstrate the possibilities of rapid construction in the progress they have both made. Both of these buildings were commenced late in tlic fall and both arc about half done already. In general plan the sight-seers will find the buildings are placed around a great oval, with an irregular island surrounded by lagoons for 0 center. Looking south from the women's building is horticultural hall. The hall has reached the stage of glass-rooting work and shows very effectively what the finished building will be.

The Other ltullilliiR*.

Then comes the transportation building, well along toward completion, the structural work all done, the skylights and windows in and a large part of the exterior staff decoration in place 011 the lagoon side.

Toward the lake from transportation hall is the mines building, perhaps the best exhibit of the construction department because it shows to the best advantage the possibilities of rapid construction. But little remains to Ix douo in the building except to in

VILLE, INDIANA, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 1892.

stall lights and arrange floor space so exhibitors may complete their decorative designs. The roofing is practically done iind a large part of the staff exterior is in place.

Still to the east is the electricity building, which has been delayed by the slow delivery of root trusses. The building is, however, well enough advanced to be worth seeing. .lust across the broad driveway from the mines and electricity is the administration building—a great structure, apparently iu the infancy of spidor web iron and steel work, but really approaching the latter half of the construction period.

Near this group arid still to the south is the agricultural building, which is up to its second story, and machinery hall, which is in the llooring stage. Allied to tho agricultural building in its interest but separated by considerable space is the forestry building, over on the lake shore, the southernmost structure of all the exposition group.

Greatest of Thorn All.

Turning northward, across the lagoon from the administration building, the visitors will come to the least picturesque and yet the most impressive work 011 tho grounds—the great floor of tlia manufactures building. This floor covers thirtytwo acres of space and its dis-. tances are accentuated by the pavilions being erected. Altogether there are eight pavilions at the corners and center of the building ami one pavilion alone—the central one—is to be 127 bv 55 feet and 125 feet high, almost as large as an ordinary nine-story building.

North of til's are the government and fisheries buildings, both creditable to the energy of the contractors and in the last stages of structural work.

These are the visible evidences of Chicago's good faith in exposition work. The landscape enterprises, costing over Si,000,000 and involving immense labor, show very little, on the surface.

1HK \V Aft i:s OF SIX.

PARIS, Feb. 20.—Tho shooting of M. Emile Abeille. .formerly an attache of the French legation in Washington, by Edward Parker Deacon in Mrs. Deacon's bedroom at Cannes Tuesday night] is the one great subject of conversation in the fasti ionable circles in Europe. All tho parties iu the case are so well known that it is impossible to enter a social circle without meeting some of their friends. Mr. Deacon upheld on all sides, particularly uinon^ Americans, for killing his wife's lover, and very litCe if any sympathy is expressed for Mrs. Deacon.

I.onu SUHiiirititiM i! Iter.

It is almost impossible out of tliu many conflicting stories told of the shooting to get at all tho exact facts in the case. The dead man, who was a brother of the deputy of the same name, had, it would seem, been carry iug on un intrigue for some years past witli Mrs. Deacon. Mr. Deacon hail long been suspicious of his wife.

Mr*. IJeiieun Itei ^iJ for .Mercy. Taking up the story of the killing from the point where Abeille was h-It dying in the hall directly before the door of Mrs. Dea.-on's room and Mi-. Deacon was restrained by the peoph from the neighboring rooms from rushing at. his wife, it appears that after all the parties had become somewhat calmer they entered tlic room, where Mrs. Deacon hysterically implored hoi husband not to fire again upon Abeille or to kill her. Mr. l)c:»eon was as cool as could be expected during the whole of these exciting incidents, and looking at his wife as she spoke he said: "1 will not shoot yor for the sake of our children. IT leave you to give myself up to the po lice.'" He then turned and loft the room andas he passed Abeille lie stoopi over and asked liim it, lie was liadl.v wounded. Abeille could only rcspoiic with a drop of his head. Tlio'n Deticoi. said the wounded man should lie oar ried to his room. Mr. Deacon then h-fl tho hotel and went straight The oommissairo, of police and spent the. remainder of the night, in one of the rooms there.

Mr. I)«*acoti'tf Slory,

Mr. Deacon was at to a. m. Fridav examined by the magistrate in charge of the case, lie was calm and colleetoc and gave a very succinct account of the incidents that led up to the killing of Abeille. In response to the magistrate's J|iicstions Mr. Deacoi: said he arrived at the llote' Splendide shortly after midnght Thursday. As he entered I he corridor he saw a light shining through the space under the door of his wife's room. Though there was nothing in this of itself to cause him ti suspect that a man was it: his wife's company, it diii, foi some uncxplainalile reason, reawaken his suspicion that his wife was unfaithful to liim. His suspicions regarding his wife's honor had been aroused Minn months previous to this by the conduct of his wife, but lie had lie tnngiblc proof that she. was engager in wrong doing. When he saw the light under her door, however, hi suspicions became certainty and he de termined at once to confirm bis worst belief.

Iliihrt Intend to Kill Him. He summoned the clerk of the bote and in his company broke in tliedooi of the room, lie saw Abeille hiding! behind an armchair and fired three times at him. Mr. Deacon added that it was not his intenVion to kill the man but only to wound him.

Mrs. Deacon was then examined. She told a story that confirmed that of her husband.

At I.iliprty.

Mr. Deacon was taken by the chid coinmissnire to the Hotel de Ville at lrns.se. where the details of the investigation were formally reported to liim. Then lie was set at liberty upon his own recognisances, although the judge stipulated he should reside in (jrasse until the assizes. He will be indicted for the murder of M. Abeille and tried at the next Nice assizes at the end of March.

'I he bill passed by the senate extending for ten years the operations of the Chinese exclusion laws is a substitute for a similar measure introduced bv Senator Dolph (Ore.). The bill has wider so pi: than is indicated by its title, for, in addition to lvenaeting the present exclusion laws which are about to hip--,o, it contains a section intended to meet the ditlieulty the treasury oilicials have, encountered in returning Chinese to lima through judicial 'decisions adverse to their rigiit to return them further than to tin- country from which they entered the I'nited Slates. I'lider this construction of the law the treasury returned a number of Chinese to Canada instead of to China, and they were soon again smuggled across the lino, which it was impossible to guard at all times and places. Another new section provides severe penalties for the return to the I'nilod Stales of Chinese once sent out o: the country.

The senate adjourned until Tuesday after transacting some other business of minor .importance.
