Chicago Exposition Sunday Opening Sparks Legal Battle
A federal court ruling touched off a heated debate over Sunday opening for the Columbian Exposition. Judges questioned whether government constraints on the fair's funding violated contracts and religious-rest provisions. The case, tied to a $1,140,000 gift condition, heads to the court of appeals while organizers push for Sunday access. A separate report notes the Exposition’s grand reception including royal and international guests and a crowd that topped prior days.
