ST. LOUIS WOMEN PIoUED.
Fair Managers Complain That They
Were SIGHTED in New York.

st. Louis. Dec 11.-According to Mrs
James L. Blair. the st. Louis member OF
the board Of lady managers of the
worlds fair. the MEMBERS Of the board
were deliberately sighted, snubbed. ig-
nored and cut at their recent meeting at
the Manhattan Hotel. New York. Miss
Helen Gould and Mrs. Mccall. she says,
were the ones who thus sighted their
sisters OF the board.
Mrs. Blair says that the women pres
ent at this meeting bitterly resent the
treatment they received. Attic the meet
ing had been called to sit in New York
that the members might become ac-
quainted with one another, yet Miss
Gould and Mrs. Mccall were conspicu-
Gus by their absence. Nor did they send
regrets or explanation of their absence.
Mrs. Blair thinks that the social snub
administered to the members Of the
board was not half so discourteous az
the slight put upon the national board,
which selected them. The national COM
missioners present lamely apologized for
the absentees. but the women members
of the board did not feel disposed to &C.
oept their explanation.
