Rensselaer Republican, Volume 25, Number 43, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 22 June 1893 — EXHIBITS SHUT OUT. [ARTICLE]

EXHIBITS SHUT OUT.

The situation at Chicago resulting from Director-General Davis’s order to exclude al! exhibits received after June 10 is becoming serious. There are at present over sixty car-loads of exhibits standing in the yards at Jackson Park, which cannot be unloaded while this order is in operation, and more are arriving every day. The yards are becoming crowded and the owners of the exhibits are becoming desperate. Besides this the custom officers have notice of fifty-one consignments on board vessels from foreign countries- Under the order of General Davis all these exhibits must be refused. An effort is being made to have the order rescinded.
