Louisiana Purchase Will Re Held

President Francis Said II the EXPOSE

More European Exhibits
Would Be In Place.

Washington, Jan. 1s.-Ex-Goyernor
Francis. in response to a reuest from
the Associated Press, made the fol-
lowing statement regarding reports
that the Louisiana Purchase exposition
would be postponed from 1908 to 1904:
Il was much surprised to learn that
q statement had been printed TO the
effect that I had virtually admitted
that the fair would be postponed from
1903 to 1904. have never advocated
.nor contemplated such action. On
behalf OF the local company | desire
to say 1t can be ready for the exposi-
ton in 1908 and will be ready. When
some newspaper men asked me Friday
IL the fair would be postponed, and /
made negative reply. was asked If
we could not prepare better fair in
1904 than 1903 replied Yes. and
so can we prepare better fair for
1904 than for 1904. cannot see why
this statement should be construed as
an admission that the Louisiana Pur-
chase exposition would be postponed
from the date fixed by congress and
announced by the president in his
proclamation inviting foreign countries
TO participate. Some OF the European
governments have sent replies declln-
Ing. and one object OF my visit 10
Washington Is to ask the state depart
ment and the administration to bring
additional pressure upon such govern
ments to reconsider their conclusion
II. however. they refuse to do SO. It
would not mean that st. Louis would
not have exhibits from those countries,
as our commissioners would make APP
peals to manufacturers and. other ex-
hibitors therein. One or more of the
foreign governments have given as
reasons for the declInation that they
have not time In which to prepare
Whether the governments so declining
would participate in the event OF a
postponement have not been ascer-
tanned.
Il am still In conference with the
state department and thust that with
In the next few days some plan Will
be evolved whereby foreign govern
ments that have declined can be in
duced to- reconsider"
IL continued Mr.. Francis. 'the
state department or the administration
or congress should desire this fair
postponed ia order to give foreign gov
ernments q longer time In which to
prepare. have no doubt the local cor
poration would readily grant such
wishes"
