THE resignation of Major Burke as
Director General Of the New Orleans
Exposition is said to be due to the fact
that he has become involved financially
through assuming obligations in behalf
of the great fair hich he had reason
to expect the Government would dis
charge. The decision of the Attorney
General which declared that no part of
the $3.50, 900 recently appropriated by
Congress should be used in the pay
ment of the Louisiana creditors has
proved a serious blow TO Major Burke.
