Paris, June Copyright, 1900. by
the Associated Press.0--Thc repuplica-
ton here OF articles which have APP
peared in the Associated Press, directed
against Commissioned General Peck's
management, and charging the misuse
of authority by his staff, has started a
fund of gossip. but has resulted in no
tangible evidence that the charges are
true. While some are at variance with
MIR. Peck's ideas, no one insinuates that
he is involved i'll any act not in accord
ance with absolute honesty, or that he
is actuated by any but the best motives
in directing the work of the American
commission. He asserts emphatically
that no space has been sold by employees
and expresses a Willingness that the
fullest investigation be made.
That there is considerable friction
and discomfort among those connected
With the commission and among some
of the exhibitors is beyond doubt.
Washington is kept posted on affairs.
The pay roll is being decreased each
week, as the various experts and en-
jploSes complete their work, and the Of
fetal force will soon be much smaller.
The exposition itself drags along to-
ward completion with many ex-
!hibits still unfinished. The chief COM
plant of visitors is not lack OF sufficient
to see, but of the absence of any form
of amusement eXcep, that of viewing
the exhibits. There is no outside music
or any of the other attractions which
made the Chicago worlds fair each
might a scene of gayety and brilliancy.
