FIFTY TIIOUSAXD PEOPLE

Is Ihe Estimate the State Fair Managers Put on Yesterday's Attendance. The Xet Proceeds at the Gate Were Larger Than Any Day of Previous Years Premiums Awarded in Various Departments. Yesterday was by far the best day that the fair this year lias known. It seems to have become a general opinion throughout the State that everything can be seen better by everybody on Thursday of fair week, and as a'consequenco thousands waited until yesterday to attend. The weather was almost perfect The. cooling effect of Wednesday's rain had not entirely passed away, and just enough sunshine was out to make the combination of temperature exceedingly comfortable. For the first time in many years overcoats and wraps were worn on the grounds. The attendance was unusually large, thousands of people going to the grounds almost as soon as the street cars were out in the morning to furnish transportation. From 9 o'clock in the morning until 5 in the evening Pennsylvania and Alabama streets contained an almost ceaseless line of cars, each beyond the point of having room for one more. One car alone, according to the conductor's register, carried 111 passengers. Never since Indianapolis has had a State fair and a street-car system, so the managers of the Citizens' company 6ay, have so many cars been used or so many persons been carried in one day as were furnished transportation yesterday. Secretary Heron estimated the crowd on the grounds, at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, at 50,000, while others expressed equally certain opinions that it would reach CO.000. Twenty-eight thousand people paid at the gates, netting $4,000 more upon the gross receipts than was taken in on any one day in previous years. Added to this number were thousands upon thousands of excursionists whose railroad-ticket coupons admitted them to the grounds, and whose exact enumeration cannot be ascertained until the fair managers settle with the railroad officials The excursions from various towns throughout the State did much to swell the throng, and on some of the roads, it is said, many more would have come had they been able to secure comfortable transportation. It was a typical Indiana fair day. Every type of humanity was to be seenThebest class of Indianapolis citizens yw out in , their carriaees aud private conveyances by the hundreds, while in greater numbers could be seen, and as easily recognized, the more rustic, but, at the same time, a class of people who probably derived more enjoyment from the day's sights and happenings. A large majority of them, perhaps, were looking upon 'exhibits whrch had been displayed for the last ten years, and which they themselves had 6een half as many times; but, as one old farmer was heard to remark in tho machinery department. "It wouldn't be a fair without these here threshing machines." "Hut, then," insisted his companion, "there's nothing new here. Let's go over there in the main building." "No," replied the granger. "I've attended this hero fair now regularly for live J ears, and I always take everything in. know I've seen her all before, but then I wouldn't think my year had been a perfect one if I hadn't been all over these grounds. It's as good as Christmas to me." And so the crowds surged on, not even allowing a slight shower in the afternoon to stop them in their eager desiro to see everything. No one department in all the vast array of exhibits seemed to be more popular than another, evidently due to the fact tUat peoSlo were in sufficient abundanco to equally istributa the spectators throughout the main and adjoining buildings, as well as the grounds. No nalloon ascension or Farachnte exhibition has characterized the air this year, but the attendance has been increased, and the management feel confident that they are gradually accomplishing their one end and aim, namely, to have it appreciated for its merit alone. The results of this year have made them very hopeful of the outlook for next, and every effort, they say, will bo made to have it on a much larger scale. The judges in the various departments were busy all day yesterday awarding premiums, but much in that line remains to be done. The entry books were returned to the secretary up to 8 o'clock last night, and many are still outstanding. The awards so far seem to give pretty general satisfaction.

It was estimated that fully 20,000 people "witnessed the races in the aiternoon. Iho amphitheater, which is the largest in the State, and has a seating capacity of 5,000, was crowded to its utmost an hour before the tirst race was called, and fully three times that number of spectators were packed inside the track and around the entire outside. The attendance far exceeded any that has ever marked the annual meetings of the Indiana Trotting- aud Pacing Association. There were only two races that were on tho regular programme. The first, a 2:tf7 trot, was called, with L ew Wann. Jubilee Lambert. Billy Wortbingtou, Middle Way, Joe, and Wilkes, as starters. The contest was, after the tirst heat, narrowed down between Middle Way, Joe, and Lew Wann. the latter easily passing under the wire three out of live. Summary: Middle Way 1 1 1 Joe 4 2 2

A contest of enuestrianshin between Mrs. Eva Kiddle, of Kentucky, and Miss Grace Foster, of Greenwood, was witnessed with considerable interest on the part of spectators. The women were un fairly matched, so far as horses were concernedj Mrs. Kiddle's mount being far superior in appearance, as well as iu gait, to that on which Miss Foster was seated. Skill in riding, however, was the only basis upon which the iddees decided, and they unani mously awarded tho tirst prize, twenty-live dollars, to Miss i ostor. -Mrs. Kiddle was given $15. FotogTaphy A Notable Display. Messrs. Marceau & Power, fotografers. have an exhibit of artistic fotography that is a study of much interest to persons capa ble of judging meritorious art. Here are arranged tho lovely and coquettish faces of belles, alternating with those of mature dames or prosaic statesmen and local men or atlairs. feome master mind who is a student of graceful pose and tho accessories of tone crlect, with shadings and outline draperies that gives the subject, although it maybe a homely face, a stylo that attracts instant attention, and yet the perfect likeness is preserved intact. This, we claim, is true art. The reporter noticed elegantly-tinished cabinets offered at S3 per dozen, and intermediate sizes up to that of life-size crayons, of which these gentlemen claim perfection. A Display in Japanese Furniture. The Japanese Furniture and Manufacturing Company furnishes an exhibit of decided interest in its display of bamboo furniture, including easels, lacquer-top tables, parlor cabinets, music-racks, and chairs and settees of unique construction and varied design. Everything exhibited is thoroughly Japanese, tho stock used in tho manufacture being imported direct by tho company from Japan. The lacquer plaques which are introduced into the manufacture of the parlor tables and card-receivers are revelations of the wonderful skill of the Japanese artisan. In the general manufacture of their goods Japanese fret-work is employed which would baffle the skill of American workmen to imitate. A cordial invitation is extended those who have not been able to witness this wonderful display at the State fair to examine a more complete line of Japanese goods at the warerooms and factory at 11$ North Pennsylvania street. Human Hair Goods. Among the unique displays of special interest to the ladies was that of Mrs. A. S. Fowler, on the second floor of the main hall, at the west end. Here, in great variety, are waves, skeleton, zigzag, Fedora and perfection bancs; also, skeleton switches, Koman purls, wigs, etc. One article, a white wig, price, $100, attracted much notice, and it is a novel feature in hair goods. The red ribbon was attached to this exhibit, and is justly awarded as being the largest and finest ever shown in the hall. The Fostorla liuggj Company. Visitors to the State fair should not fail to see tho white gear, jump seat, full back surrey exhibited in this company's display in the hall, just east of main entrance. It is a dandy. The Advance Gets There Every Time. So much has been written from time to time in favor of the "Advance Thresher and Engine," of Battle Creek, Mich., that it would seem that the need of praise in its behalf had beenjexhausted. That it i9the best the world has ever produced is hardly controverted. It is the best machine made, and its gtrong points are many and well known to tho farmer. As much can be truthfully claimed for the "Engine." The now device on the thresher, a "band cutter and feeder," was greatly admired and observed the past few days by visitors. So perfectly does it do the work that it "knocks the socks" olfof all competing devices of a similar nature. This company exhibits on the grounds three (3) different-sized engines and two separators, making by all odds the finest display in this line 'of farm machinery at tho fair. The sales of threshing machinery manufactured by this farm on yesterday and the day before, concluded on the fair grounds, amounted to over 315,000. This speaks volumes for the popularity and perfection of the "Advance." Clay-Workinr Machinery. In our notice yesterday of tho brick and tile machine of Messrs. Fate & Frease, the lirst name was spelled Tate, and should have been Fate. Their device attracted much attention again yesterday. A Large Dlank Rook. Vm. B. Burford, manufacturer of blank books, lithographer, printer and stationer,. never fails to show visitors to the fair something well worth seeing, and this year has placed on exhibition the largest blank book ever made in the State. It is eight feet wide, twelve feet hight. and two and one-half feet thick, perfect in construction and artistically finished, making a display long to be remembered. Indianapolis District Telegraph Company. , This company's exhibit of electric bells, burglar alarms, electric gas lighting, electric gas alarms, ana oiuer e;ectric sup plies; also, ilexible tubing and whistles in activo operation is quite largo and attractive. Electrical appliances are always of interest. Go ami see them on the east side of the north stairway. Seal and Stencils. Mr. Geo. J. Mayer has a full display of his well-known rubber stamp, besides stencils aud oflicial seals, adjoining the exhibit of the DistrictTelegraph. Mr. Ma3er's wares are tho best, and he has a wide reputation as a manufacturer in this particu lar line. Invincible. The reliable and invincible McCormick harvester the lirst yet tho last to embrace all improvements that makes it perfectwas largely viewed yesterday by fanner visitors. The fair is only half "done" if the honest yeomanry of tho State fail to inspect this incomparable machine. The last harvest again proved, as well as the preceding ones, the superior points in favor of the McCormick. Mr. Hey wood, general manager for Indiana, extends a special invitation to-day to all visitors, and will make the call one of interest to those who respond. Dirycles aud Safeties. Messrs. Hay &. Willit's display of bicycles and safeties, in tho west end of the main hall, is large and varied. This firm recently bought the retail business of the Indiana Bicycle Company, and are located at No. US West Washington street, where they are prepared to do a largo traflic in these machines, having iu stock both new and old ones. The firm is also prepared to do nickleplating, enameling and repairing. These gentlemen have tho sole agency for tho

Victor wheel. . Lovers of this sport are invited to inspect their stock, and they guarantee perfect satisfaction in case of sale. The Singer Sewing-Machine. All day yesterday crowds of visitors lingered admiringly around the Singer Sewingmachine Company display, at the east side of Exposition Hall, on the main floor. Their space is covered with an array of elegant work, which received tho heartiest praise. The display is such that no othercompany can equal it. tho evidence being there and shows for itself. Competent 1'udgea claim that it is the finest work that las ever been exhibited.

The World's Victor. There would be no State fair unless the famous light-running Buckeye binder was on the ground. It is there, as usual, and is perfect beyond the objections of even interested cavilers of other machines. The light-running Buckeye is made at Akron, O., by AuMraan, Miller & Co., and its reputation is more than national, being the world's victor by capturing tirst prizes in contests in seventeen foreign couutries: besides, the Buckeye received the , tirst gold medal ever awarded to a harvesting machine in the United States, and is to-day without a successful rival. These machines are in the north tier of pavilions adj6iniug the south end of the time track. The Indi-j anaoflice is at No. C9 West Washington' street, in charge of the general agent. Me Henry J. Pner, a wide-awake and agreeable gentleman, who will take pleasure,. during the remainder of tho fair, m exhibiting its perfect working to all who may desire to see. A Wonderful "Wrench. V, The new wrench manufactured by Biel 1 & Urban, of Terre Haute, is attracting j wide-8nread attention. Instead of slow--working thread motion the tool is worked I by a rachet and cam. operated with quicrf ness and nrecision. It is a vastidmprove--mentover all other pipe or nut wrenches,,; and of such construction as to bo far moreo economical. All the parts are interchangeable, a renewal of the most expensive partt not costing more than 15 cents. Llemens? Vonnegut, located atl&4andl8G Eaat Washingtou street, has arranged to handle tint: wonderful wrench. Dunfee "Wood Carpet. Quite an interest is shown in tio woocW; carpet exhibited by Mr. E. D. Braden, in: the Exposition building. Some of the de signs are appropriate for the most Elaborate t floor covering. The Courtland wall desk ifil uuumer uuiauie ieaiure iu uin. cauiwii. which, together with fancy grilles and numberless fret-work designs for doors,rarches and windows, go toward making up an interesting display. p ii A Double Display. u Messrs. Bradley, Holton & Co., manujobbers, whose office is, at 177 to 181 East Washini double display that eclipses in extent tllai of any other single firm. In tho ' easterii portion of Exposition Hall is located tloilf exhibit of buggies, carnages, etc. whose) handsome work attracted much atlcntipn. This firm shows a number of difTerant styles of buggies, carriages, road-wagohsi carts, etc., and the jobs are first-elass'iri even particular. Quite a large nufftber,'o their vehicles are in use in this City a.n'4 countv. V.I. -v J Messrs. Bradley, Holtou & Co.V second display is in their implement hallj "a few rods northeast of the main Exposition building, and is CO x 100 years inventors have bee brains to se cure nerfect lab machinery, and the product of the "David Bradley Manufacturing Company ctcioiitly covers a great part of this field, aud the lirst-named tin a is a branch establishment, dealing largely in the manufactured) prod net of the Bradley Company, located ttt Chicago. Among The goods in this display. and the product of the Bradley Company1 -are steel, cnilled and combination plows; cultivators, rakes, harrows, feed-mills, gi'ilnd1 . A ers, crusuers, nay presses, corn-piasters, and other agricultural implements. Messrs. Bradley, Holton te Co.'s business iuthis city has increased to such an extent that; xo accommouaTO ineir larger ousiness mey are now building immense warerooms on Pearl street, in the rear of their present' auarters, to be used iu connection there with. The Knickerbocker Regulator Company. The articles displayed hy this firm are. of especial interest to the people of thissec tion, as many of them relate to the use'pf natural gas. They manufacture a fulj lfte of gas regulators, stove and grate valiej, automatic cut-ofts and illuminating lators. As demonstrated at the fair,J:fh'3 regulators are for steam and water a wqll as natural gas. The urgent need of saoh a contrivance as an automatic cut-oil. makes this article an object of more than ordiuary x . mt. w i i i i , . interest, ine rvnicKcruociier uoner-yaiyo plays a very important part on a boiler,1 especially when heated by natural ga"s, so controlling the pressure that the engineer has little else, to do than watch his ermftie and water. E very article manufactured by this company is worthy of a careful inspection and study h' every visitor to th05tai,o Tlie Stove Display Of the Wells Manufacturing Company, of LiJ I which mention was made yesterday,' cori-i tinued to attract tho attention of visitors. The interest seemed to center in the,,1 celebrated "Ked Cross" base-burner, and the cook stoves and ranges of the same name; for either coal or wood. The Penu Franks lin for natural gas. a combined cload or open front for heating parlors or sittiufcstoves will undoubtedly carry off af high award, as they have already dono thq'good opinion of visitors. . TV i i: i I The Cleaicland Yard Fence. ;.r The Cleaveland yard fence, which has made such an enviable reputation at jiome for both beauty and durability, maintains its position in the good graces of the., visitor to the State fair. or tine lawns and elegant surroundings no better'fencq can be secured, as it is at once a protection and an ornament, in no way concealing what it incloses. Hardly a square can bo found in ! i 1 -J . . a ! . . me residence portions oi me city wnicn cannot boast a rod or two of tho Cleveland fence. Steam Radiator and Cooking Apparatus, Messrs. Giles & Brown exhibit in the west end of the main hall a combined "radiator and steam-cooking apparatus," with which yon can heat your parlor'i dining-room, bed-room, and do :your cooking in the kitchen, all with : the same apparatus. Ueiug portablo it eau be moved from room to room. No other light is needed in tho room a the lamps emit 150 candle-power. It must bo seen to be appreciated, and no visitor should fail to see it. ., . Amusement Matters. t Austin's Australian Novelty Company will be at the Park next week. "Chris and Lena" is tho programme, at the Park Theater, with Pete" liakur as the star. i "Hans the Boatman," a play that has been brunch t into prominence and popular favor by Charles Arnold, is underlined for English's the last half of tho coining week. English's Opera-house was packed to the walls last night. "The Burglar" is proving one of the strongest drawing attractions that has ever been o tie red to the local publie, and tho performance by the Madisonsquare Company is one that deserves the bighest praise. The same play will be repeated to-night, to-morrow afternoon and to-morrow evening, when the engagement closes. The seating capacity of tho (irand Operahouse was exhausted long before the curtain went up last night, and when the performance commenced, standing-room could not bo secured at any price. Hanlon'a "New Fantasma," with its many dazzling spectacular effects, was warmly applauded and evidently appreciated by the large audience. The performances to-night, to-morrow afternoon and to-morrow evening will conclude the engagement. The attraction announced for English's the first three niuhts of next week is the famous vamleville team. Ferguson and Mack, and their clever company, in an original kit entitled "McCarthy's Mishaps." As a langh-provoker it is spoken of in the highest terms, aud in that way fills its only claim to public attention. The company is one oi strength, and embraces, among others. Miss Lizzie Daly, whose grotesque dancing has made her a prominent feature wherever seen. The other members of the company are equally strong, and form a comedy organization not easily surpassed.

AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS. An Old ltailroad Project ItevlTed. A great transcontinental scheme, which

has been slumbering for seven years, has come to the front again, aud indications are that Indianapolis is to be on one of the transcontinental lines as an important point. The Cleveland Leader of yesterday says: "Back in 1SS3 a road called the To ledo, Indianapolis & St. Loui3 was incor porated in the States of Ohio, Indiana and Illinois. Little was done at the time beyond the surveys and securing a portion of the right of way. This project has lately blossomed out into a transcontinental route, with Toledo as its eastern terminus. Thence the road will extend in a south western direction through Indianapolis,. crossing the Mississippi at Chester, III., one hundred miles below fct, Louis, and on through Missouri, Arkansas, Texas and Mexico, to the l'aeilic seaport, Mazatlan, Mex. Concessions have been granted the projectors to operate this road for twenty year9 free of all taxes and duties. English capital has taken hold of the scheme, hav ing contracted to purchase 400.0(.0 shares of Btock. Tho road, as it appears in its more expansive form, will bo known as the Atlantic, Mexican Sc Pacific. Its project ors say it will bo 700 miles shorter from ocean to ocean than any other transconti nental line. Mr. A. Dale Owen, of PhuaI'jdelphia, president of tho road, is in Cleve laud, and a number of Cleveland residents lire said to bo interested in the project. President Owen will leave in a few days for London to complete arrangements for tho immediate construction of this impor tant line." Personal. Local and General Notes. '''The Fort Wavne. Cincinnati &, Louisville company is this week receiving 1,000 tons of fcteel rails to be distributed on the White water Valley road. 7 J. J. Kocers. commercial agent of the Missouri. Kansas t Texas road, is spending a couple of days in the city in the interest m the road he represents. sJhn F.

It is expected that the receipts will reach fully lio car loads. One firm is to have thirty car-loads ql tine export beeves, culled out of large herds of cattle in Illinois. The Big Four people allege that the Cin1! f r 1 V . A.1 ciunaii, Hamilton or- iayton, in connection with the Baltimore & Ohio, on Wednesday carried a party numbering twelve from In dianapolis to rhiladelphia at 10 a Head. 'The agreed party rate is $14.70, and the regular rate is $17.50 per ticket. The roads doing a north-and-sonth-bound -business have been a little slow in getting on sale their ono thousaud-nulo tickets at Si), cood for the bearer: in fact, the Big Jfour has not yet got them on sale. Mean time, the Pennsylvania and the Monon are .brotiting through thoir tardiness in the .juaucr. ' There is said to be considerabb friction (come to the road if the troubles can be har monized, say those in a position to understand the situation. 1" Vice-president Woodford, of theWTheelT - 1 1 ' .1 I 1 1 lug cv. liUko riie roau, nas uwaiueu iuo contract to build the 500 coal cars he asked bids on as follows: Two hundred andiiftv to tne terre llaute car-works and totue .Peninsular car-works. The Terre Haute car-works have also contracted to build 500 coal cars for the Chicago 6c Northwestern road. A prominent railroad oflicial, in speaking ox tne appointment oi a committee to investigate the attain of the Indianapolis, Decatur & Western road, said that it eeeiued to him uncalled for. as no one Ques tioned that the road had been honestly and economically managed; tho only way "to iniucrease its earnings was to increase the business of the line through extensions. or forming t rathe alliances with some line inendly to them. Chief Engineer Becker, of the Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsbursr. hasHust re turned from a trip over the Jeffersonville, 'Madison & Indianapolis road, and expresses the opinion that this division ot the 1'enn.Bvlvania system is in the best physical conution oi any division west oi rittsuurg. iDuring tho past summer thousands of new cross-ties have been put in, 4,000 car-loads of gravel placed under the track, and a "-considerable sum has been expended on bridges.

A T . .1 A. r ieareu. mat it is a uaa preceueni, aim will lead to trouble in rate matters if repeated. Both tho Big Four and the Penn.(ylvania refused to haul cars of Northwestern lines iu here; lest it might tend to break tho supposed harmony now existing between the north-aud-south lines. But little is heard of Thomas F. Oakes, jpresident of the Northern Pacific, as he is :ou6tantly out on the lines building up their business. An Indianapolis railroad -othcial, who has just returned from the vWust over that line, says that its business risttimply phenomenal. He had never seen in tbe history of Western roads, transcontinental lines not excepted, such a growth oftrathc; and one of the general orhcers 'tfited to him that an increase in earnings On 'the system of at least $3,000,000 a mouth pi promised the uexttwelvo months. ii Indications are that President Ingallsis n otto have everything his owuwayviith tho Chesapeake & Ohio road. Several Wealthy capitalists have secured an inter.e.st Jn the West Virginia Central road, and nrtfposo to extend it at once to Charleston, W Va., where the road will connect with the Kanawha &. Ohio road, which runs to Vprning. O. The new liue will make a new direct route from Baltimore to Cincinnati, nnd-would tap the rich territory now exclusively controlled by tho Chesapeako &, Ohio, Eugineers are in tho field now, locating the line. There is a good deal of complaint on the ttmlianapolis & Vincennesroadoverthe mi-business-like manner the road is operated oir such occasions as tho State fair. In 'faet, it is stated that whenever there is anything going on at Indianapolis which draws a crowd, tho I. &. V. management niake no special etlort to accommodate those; who wish to get here in good season, usually hauling, with one light engine, twelve, to fourteen coaches loaded to their i($fnpst capacity, landing the passengers iu here about noon, as yesterday, which deprives them of two or three hours' time, winch they should have to visit the fair or witness anything unusual which may bo going on at Indianapolis. Other roads run fumrt special trains, and try to make it pheasant for their patrons. sfTherois good authority for stating that the bondholders of the Indianapolis. l)ejeaturcV Western road have asked the lig Four syndicate to help them out of their fiuacial troubles, and have expressed a willingness to accept almost any terms to be relieved. It is understood that the syndicate gave them but little encouragement, stating at the same time the only way t hey could see to help matters would be to agree to tako the road and operate it, paying a percentage of the earnings, above operating expenses, to the bondholders interested. It isthopght the Big Four, with its well-disciplined force, could get more earnings out of the road than any other corporation. Then, the expense of tho general offices of the road could be largely reduced if the road was operated as a part of the Big Four system. is The Big Four syndicate is negotiating to secure as its own the St. Louis. Alton &. Terre Haute road, which it now operates through a lease to the Indianapolis & St. Louis road, now owned by this syndicate. The St. L., A. T. 11. mam line is litt miles in length, extending from Terre Haute to sc. Louis. For the use of this l'J3 miles tho llee-line, now absorbed by the Big Four syndicate, pays a rental of $40,000 a year, mile the gross earnings exceed $1,7.10,000 in any year ending Oct. Itt. and then 4J0 per cent, is to be paid of the excess of gross earnings over $1,7.j0,000. For two years past the Bee-line directory have been endeavoring to get the rental reduced, as the earning capacity of tho road would not justify 60 large a rental. Now it is proposed to
