THE" MORNING OEEGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, JANTJABY. 4, 1905. SPACE NOW SHORT The Meier & Frank Store Great Annual I Exhibitors Quickly Take Ad ditional Room. STOCKHOLDERS ARE FAYORED Local 'Firms Which Failed to Assist Exposition Will Lose Ou in Struggle for Space Exhibit ors Wish to Build. To those, local firms who gave to the lewis and' Clark Fair shall be given back in the shape of space manyfold; to those "who gave not shall no space be given, none at alL The exhibits commit tee of the Board has been hectored for more and more space by those who have been the least willing to dig into their pockets when the Fair was getting on its legs and needed money, and these are for the greater part not willing to take stock now, still they clamor for space. But they -will not get It, and those who have taken stock and are now willing to take more and are loyal to the Expo sition are to have two ells on the -Ha chlnery and Transportation building erected for their especial benefit. This, with a zood many more things. was decided by the committee as It went about the grounds yesterday after noon looking ud sites for some small buildings which exhibitors are anxious to build for themselves. The important business of the afternoon was deciding upon the size of the ells to be erected and 125x120 feet was agreed to. These will be entirely taken up by local manu facturers who have supported tno lair. Very Little Space Left. It was learned from Director of Ex hibits H. B. Dosch that all the available space in the buildings, is now taken up. with some very few exceptions. These are "to be kept on hand for exhibits of exceptional merit which may appear. Applicants from now on must nave wonc lng, instructive and unlqiie exhibits or they get no space. Three -small but attractive buildings will be built by private companes, as they cannot find other space. One of these Is the Excelsior Stove "Works, which has been permitted to build a structure costing 16000 in which to exhibit. The Olympia Brewing Company will erect a Swiss chalet In which the aerated water of which their beer is made will be given away to all comers. There will also be a small structure for the exhibi tion of gasoline and steam launches on the lake front. HE -STARTS FOR PORTLAND. John A. Wakefield Coming to Manage Lewis and Clark Concessions. ST. LOUIS. Mo., Jan. 3. (Special) John A. Wakefield, chief of the depart ment of concessions at the Louisiana Pur chase Exposition, today wound up his affairs and bade all his friends farewell. receiving their hearty congratulations upon his engagement as chief of the de partment of concessions and admissions at the Lewis and Clark Exposition and their wishes that his work in Portland would be as successful as has been his work In St Louis. He leaves St. Louis for Portland tomorrow night. The department of concessions at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition today ceased to exist, all unfinished clerical work being transferred to the auditing department. Mr. "Wakefield's home is In Omaha. where he began his Exposition work as general secretary of the Omaha Exposi tion. From there he went in an official capacity to the Buffalo Exposition, so the Portland Exposition will be his fourth. PADESEWSKI TOKIGHT. World's Greatest Pianist at the Arm ory Brilliant Programme. This evening at the Armor." Tenth and Couch streets, the greatest pianist in the "World. Paderewski, will be heard In grand recital. This will be one of the greatest musical events in recent years and Port land music-lovers are to be congratulated on being favored by this wonderful artist. The wonderful magic of Paderewskl's name was never more markedly illustrat ed than at the present time. A bare an nouncement that the great artist was to return to this country from Australia for a concert tour this season brought an avalanche of proffers for concerts from every section of the continent. Paderew Eki's remarkable popularity throughout the country increases with each year. Hardly another artist maintains such a hold upon the whole people. Paderewski Is a man of enormous magnetic force. In other days he might have been an orator, swaying the passions of the crowd; a diplomat that gained all his ends, a Cagllestro. the en thusiastic founder of a sect. He would have been distinguished, a man apart, in any profession. In music the natural gift is potent, seductive, irresistible. The Pade rewski programme follows: Prelude and Fugue. A minor.. .Bach Liszt Sonata Op. C7 (allegro assai, andante con moto; allegro manon troppo. pres to .Beethoven Impromptu. Op. 1C Schubert Serenade Schubert-Liszt Erlking , Schubert-Liszt Ballade. G minor; Etudes Nos. 12, 7, 2, Op. 10; Sherzo, C sharp minor; Valse Op. 42 Chopin Melodic Op. 16 Paderewski Rhapsodle No. 6 Liszt Seats on sale at the Marquam Grand Theater until 1 o'clock P. M.; afterward at the Armory. Carriages at 10:20. ASKS ?QR KOBE POLICEMEN. Chief Hunt Submits Annual Police Report to Mayor. In the annual report of the Chief of Police, filed with Mayor Williams yes terday, several recommendations are made.

Praise Is given the department for Its excellent work of the past year, and a house of correction is asked for, as the Chief thinks one is needed to protect all Interests in the future. The Chief states that it is not his duty to attend to the rockplle, but says that is the duty of the City Engineer. The Chief also points out that the population of the city has in creased largely.
