THE Duty ON FOREIGN WORKS OF ART.

Rome Jan. 24.-The sculptor Story, Who has long
been resident Of Rome, said to Associated Press
representative to-day: "The Chicago Fair Commission
while here found the authorities most willing 10
respond 10 their requests but nothing definite has yet

works. American artists agreed that the tax Is
unjust II it is intended for our protection. We not
only do want TO be protected, but we feel that
the tax IS invidious. l twice offered formal peti-
ton to the Government signed by all the American
artists begging Congress to repeal the tax but withoue

IRON THE REGULAR CORRESPONDENT NJ THE TRIBUNAL
Albany, Jan. 24.-Why should not the State Of
New-YOrlz give $500,000 toward the support OF
the Worlds Fair at Chicago, as suggested by the
leading drygoods merchants of New-Yors? The
Stnte is not poor. On the contrary, it is richer
than it has ever been before in its history. Its
net debt on September 80, 1891, according to Con-
! troller Wemple's report, just presented to the
Legislature, was only Ss9l ,929 OF. To meet that
debt there was, he further stated, in the State
Treasury on the same date, the large surplus Of
S5,O22,77 9s Mr. Wemple recommended that, In
view Of the great surplus, the small State debt
he Immediately paid of. Very well, pay it of.
Deducting that 1891 029 OIL from the $5,Q22,-
173 % there remains a surplus Of S4,l30,S44 07.
With surplus of over $1,000 900 in the State
Treasury it does seem preposterous that the greas
State of New-York should be asked by some Of
its legislators to grow stingy suddenly and refuse
10 increase the appropriation Of 100000 named
in the Worlds Fair bill to 100000.
The Tammany Hall Senators and Assemblymen
before election day denounced in a venomous man
ner all the persons who in 1890, opposed the hold
ing of Worlds Fair in New-York under Tam
many Hall management. H. therefore, these same
1ammany Hall Senators ana ASsemoiyme now
vote against an increase Of the Chicago Worlds
Fair appropriation from 100000 to $500, 900.
there will be good reason to suspect that dislike
Of Chicago and vindictive feeling over Tammany
Halls loss of the management of the Fair has more
to do with this policy than the thought of saving
the States money. These same Tammany Hall
Senators and Assemblymen thus far have intro
duced bills in the Legislature which, if they be
come laws, will take $10,O0O,OOO out of tho
pockets of the taxpayers of New-YorlS City. How
absurd it will look to the people Of the country
to Tammany Hall taxing the people of New
York 81 600 and yet refusing to grant $780,
900 additional of the States money when that
State has available surplus of over $4,0 ,00O
The Senate Finance Committee on Wednesday
will give hearing the Worlds Fair bill
The hearing asked for by the Drygoods Com
mittee of New-York City which will be ably
represented and undoubtedly large number Of
other organizations will also send representatives
to attend the hearing and urge the granting of an
increased appropriation. The Finance Committee
has as it's chairman Senator Cantor, Of Iammany
Hall The drygoOds men would do well to i'm
press upon that gcntleman's mind the fact that
the States pocket is full of money and that there
fore there is for scrimping the expense
of maintaining New-YorlIs exhibit at the Worlds
Fair.
