OLYMPIA, Aug. 1s.-TSpecial. l-E. s.
Meany, the press agent of the Worlds fair
commission, stated here today that it was
not probable that any business would be
transacted at the meeting of the commits
sion to be held at Seattle on Friday, but
that as the attorney general had decided
that the commission had not been legally
organized. an adjournment would be taken
to Olympia and a new organization Gre
ated here. He was emphatic in express
ing the opinion that Mr.. Meeker
would not be reelected executive
commissioner. Mr.. Meany thought it
likely that President Blalock would be
chosen to fill the position. Disclosures
rejecting on Mr.. Meeker's management of
the Office are promised by Mr.. Meany. He
predicts a row with Mr.. Meeker at the
meeting 10 be held here, but is confident
that harmony will thereafter prevail.
