BUFFALO FAIR FINANCES

Pint Mortgage Bond* I.ook I.ike Possible Par—Others Out Nothing. Buffalo, X. Y., Oct. 24.—-The PanAmerican Exposition company had $804,000 In cash to its credit yesterday to be devoted to paying an additional proportion of the first mortgage bonds. Already $1,250,000 f the $2,500,000 first mortgage bonds has been paid. The exposition has nine days more. If it should clear $50,000 a day for the nine days it would have sufficient cash to make the last payment on the first mortgage bonds. The holders of the second mortgage bonds seem to agree that no payment will be made to them. The unpaid contractors are clamoring to get the 70 per cent still due on their claims, but thus far they have been unsuccessful.
