It. But one danger can grow out OF oil this, In
the opinion OF expert observers here. and that
is that the boomers for other cities may try to
mako point against New York, based on this
delay. Republican leader Fish Of the Assem-
bly, promised Secretary Stokes after the ad-
iournment that not less than one hundred
favorable votes would be cast for the bill on
Monday evening, and equally encouraging
prospects were reported to him in the Senate.
The Sonate's consideration Of the bill was
initiated by Lispenard Stewart who introduced
the bill and said: aka. -. ...t
"The fato OF New York 40 to it's being chosen

honor which the city OF New York receives is

York. Every increment OF wealth which the
city Of New York receives is an increment Of
wealth to the State OF New York as we'll I
feel Mr. President, that every Senator In this
chamber appreciates that what have said as

Senator Cantor-I hope that the matter will
not be delayed. There is q sharp competition
with Washington and Chicago, and unless we
act promptly New York may lose the Fair.
