CHICAGO, Aug. 2G-There is appar-
emily trouble brewing between the ma
tional committee Of the worlds fair
and the local directory, and lively
time is looked for when the national
committee meets next Monday.
The first row will undoubtedly de-
yelOp when DirectoI-Gcncral Davis re-
ports TO the commission that practl-
cally nothing has been done in the de-
partments Of horticulture and liberal
arts. When the commissioners ask
what caused the delay they will be
told that the directors have rejected
three men in succession who were
nominated for horticultural chief, and
the fourth nomination, NJ. Samucls, of
Kentucky, has been hung up until the
directors determine whether II will be
safe TO reject him also.
