pARADoxcAL. BUT CORRECT.
Rapid Growth OF Cities IN the North Il
balanced by Increase In Small
Towns In the South.

Washington, Jan. 19.-The director
Of the census Saturday gave out Q
statement regarding the growth OF
urban population north and south
which shows the following facts;
The large cities, taken collectively.
are growing nearly twice as rapidly
as the rest of the country; the pei
cent. Of the population Of northern
states living in large cities in nearly
three times as great as the CORE.
spending per cent. in the south; the
north has a rate Of increase no greater
than that Of the south. The large
cities in the north are growing faster
lhan those of the same size in the
south, bUi this difference is bal
anced by an extremely rapid growth
Of small town and cities in the south
and especially by the high rate Of
increase of southern rural popula-
tion. The statement says these re-
suits seem paradcxical but are cor
rect.

Says he has Personal knowledge
of the Situation and That
it is Preposterous
To Think Of Preparing an
Exhibit by 1903.


Washington, Jan. i0.--Ex-Gov. d.
R. Francis, director general Of the
Louisiana Purchase Centennial expo
sition, gave out a statement to the
press, stating in posit,se terms that
ST. Louis would be ready to open the
gates Of the exposition in 1908 and
that every person connected with the
management was of one opinion. At
the same time Adoiphus Busch, chair
man Of the foreign Affairs commit
tee and the largest individual con
tributor to the fair, authorized the
statement that It would be impossible
to hold the fair in 1903. Friends Of
Busch assert that Francis wants to
force the other directors to override
him and is unwilling to assume the re-
sponsibility for a postponement.
Busch is outspoken. He declares that
he has personal knowledge of the sit
uation abroad and that it is prepos-
ferrous to suppose that commission
could be created now to go abroad
and secure from foreign countries an
exhibit for worlds fair in 1903
commemorate with the Importance of
the project In his opinion he is
indorsed by every friend Of the fair
in Washington. A majority Of these
believe it is impolitic to make the
advancement at this time, as it will
only tend to make vexatious delays.
Busch's position is that it is unwise
to attempt a policy of deception.

Washington, Jam Secretary
Root was heard on the question OF
the Friar lands in the Philippines be
fore the house committee on insular
affairs Friday He said these land
holdings constituted one OF the chief
causes Of discomfort among the peo-
pie; they were the hotbeds of insur-
rection and had furnished Aguinaido
his chief appeal to popular prejudice.
The secretary said the religious or
ders so fully recognized the bad con-
dition OF affairs that they were dis
posed to sell out and he urged that
the government take advantage of the
opportunity 10 remove the chief
causes of discomfort in the islands.
He did not believe condemnation pro-

were indications that a fair price
could be agreed upon. a rough esti-
