SAN FRANCISCO WINS PANAMA EXPOSITION.
House of Representatives Favors the “Golden City” by Vote of 188 to 159 Last Tuesday. It looks now as though San Francisco would be the city where the Panama canal exposition will be held in'l9ls. The house of representatives voted 188 to 159 in favor of the “Golden Gate” city. The advocates of San Francisco assert that the fight is won and that the senate will ratify tbe action. A fine trip for those attending the exposition would be by way of New York City and thence by water through the canal.
