WANT THE FAIR POSTPONED.
st. Louis Exposition May Not Be- Held
Till 1904,

Chicago. April John Barrett, COM
missioner general to Asia for the Lou
isiana Purchase exposition, left Chi
cago last night for San Francisco, en-
route to the Orient. AS Mr.. Barrett
has just returned from Washington.
where he had access to the diplomatic
correspondence with foreign govern
nents ON worlds fair matters, and as
he has also been In recent conference
with the fair officials at st. Louis, the
following statements made by him to-
night in reference to a possible post
ponement of the st. Louis exposition
has special Significance:
"The worlds fair management in st.
Louis has been bending every energy
to have the exposition open promptly
In 1903, but grave condition has
arisen which 1t cannot control and for
which 1t is not responsible. Nearly all
of the foreign governments have un-
officially notified the United States
government or the worlds fair man.
agement that 1t Is IL physical impossi-
bility for them to be creditably repre-
sented In st. Louis in 1903. On the
other hand, while the majority of them
have accepted for 1903 and will do the
best they can, ,they have informally
intimated that If the exposition is post
poneu tney VIII endcaVOr TO SurpasS
even what they did mt Chicago and
Paris. AS the success of the worlds
fair as n great international exposi-
tion must depend largely on foreign
participation. it can be seen that this
is Il most serious consideration which
neither Congress nor the exposition
officials can overlook.
In short. il the worlds fair at st.
Louis Is postponed 1t will be done
largely in Difference TO the wishes of
foreign nations. For instance. the Jap
anese government has informally no.
titled me that Japan will welcome
postponements, and will participate ac-
cordingly, because in 1903 the great
exposition is TO be held at Osaka,
which will interfere with the worthy
representation Mt st. Louis. but in 1904
the best of the Osaka exhibits could
be brought to st. Louis"

COLORADO SOLDIERS HOME.
Finances in Good Shape and New
Buildings Planned.

Denver, April IA Monte Vista
special to the Denver News says the
Soldiers Home Commission has closed
two days session, at which much
important business was transacted.
The entire list of officials was re-elect-
ed for another year. The financial re-
port shows all Indebtedness paid off.
and the commission finds it has about
$4,000 in the treasury to spend for
improvements.
They propose with this to add n
wing to the hospital building. increas-
ing its capacity about fifty per cent.
They will also erect n two-story build
ing. the first story of which will be
used for officers, and the second floor
for an assembly room. They will also
install an electric light plant. abolish
ing the present cCal oil nuisance. If
the funds permit Il cottage for the adj
jutant will be erected. All these
buildings are to be of stone. uniform
with the buildings already erected.
These improvements have been sorely
needed for several years. and the
Grand Army posts and auxiliary or
ganizations throughout the state will
rejoice to know that these additional
facilities for the old soldiers are now
assured. As soon as some of the minor
details can be attended to. bids will be
called for, and the work pushed TO Il
speedy completion.

after the first three or four months
of fighting the Filipinos forsook all
civilized methods of fighting and be-
gan a guerrilla warfare of sort un.

years 1900 and 1901 because they
would not contribute money to support

VIII Invite the Prince.

New York. April There is the
highest authority for the statement
that the Chamber of Commerce of New
York will invite the Prince of Wales to
attend the dedication of s)new home
in August or September. Negotiations
of n semi-otiicial character have been
under way for the last two months,
but nothing definite will be known un-
til May or June.
AS Il mater of fact. no formal invita-
tion has yet been sent to the Prince of
Wales. in spite of statements to the
contrary, but such an invitation will
be forwarded, with every prospect of
its acceptance.

Denver, April THE Republican
this morning says:

branch of the Denver Il Rio Grande
has been let by Manager Herbert to
Deal Bros. Il Mendenhall of Spring
vile, Utah. Construction work Will
begin at once OH Il line reaching the
fruit belt of western Colorado and
some coal lands.
There has been much speculation
over which company would first pene-
trate the rich territory along the north
fork of the Gunnison, the Colorado
Fuel and Iron Company, or the Den
yer & Rio Grande. The Fuel compa-
ny own the Crystal River railroad run
ing from Carbondale south along the
Crystal river and into the rich mineral
territory which the river divides. Both
companies have had surveyors in the
field. and the Rio Grande has been do
ing some grading near the mouth of
the canon between Delta and Hotch-
kiss
The first authoritative announcement
of the Rio Grandes plans was made
yesterday by Manager Herbert upon
his return from the trip of inspection
over the road taken with General Su-
perintendent Egan.

the contract was let" said Mr.. Her
bert, Twill extend from Delta TO Pao-
mia and points north to reach the coal
fields north of Paonia. 1t will go

section of the western slope. We ex-
pect to have the road built as far as
PnOnia, forty-tive miles, by October
1st. The line will follow the north

viii begin Immediately from Delta.
The total length, including the line
north of Paonia. will be fifty-fiye
miles. 1t will eventually be a broad
gauge road. There has been talk
whether the Crystal River road or the
Rio Grande would get into the country
there. but conjectures are now mt rest,
as we will push the road through with
all speed"

value OF his farm was not great. and he entered
into negotiations with a Frcnchman to exchange
it for tract Of land in Virginia and a sum
