INDIGNANT REPRESENTATIVES,.
They Resent with Emphasis Insinua-
tions of Corruption in the Fair Contest.

V. K Stevenson who is set down as one of
the New York delegation IN the interests OF
the worlds fair, is quoted in several New York
papers this morning as charging that bribery
and corruption was used in the recent fight for
thesfair, and that Chicago had won by such
methods.
Mr.. Stevenson claims that several of the
New Cork Congressman were approached and
told that New York could get the fair by pnt-
ting up enough. These men, he says, indig-
nantly refused the offer.
Members whom STAR reporter saw this az
ternoon were highly indignant over the charge
that members had been bought in the interests
of any city. The Chicago men were
especially wroth, as the attack was aimed es-
pecially at them. One prominent Illinois men,
Der said it was all bosh; that he did not believe
one cent had been spent in corruption of any
to bear" he said, 'but mainly by the New
Workers. as with the Virginia delegation when
they were told by New York democratic Con-
gresham that he had helped them carry the
state at the last election. and he thought they
should vote for New York in return"
When Mr.. Adams was shown the paragraph
