Financial StrinEency.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-A serious dis
appointment threatens visitors to the st,
Louis worlds fair. in the probable cur
tailment of the Philippine exhibit.
The Jnsuiar government set apart $780,
600 In the expectation that the fair officers
would allot an equal amount.
Now It seems the fair authorities cannot
see their way to meet this expectation and
to prevent the waste of money on an In
adequate display the whole work OF gath
ering the articles for display has been
stopped.
ST. LOUIS, Feb. 14-walter B. Stevens,
secretary OF the Louisiana Purchase Expo
sltion company, said tonight;
It was the original proposition Of the
Philippine government TO spend $4,000 for
an exhibit IL the exposition company would
provide $780, 900 additional. This sum was
duly appropriated by. the exposition d.
rectorate.
Later when the Philippine treasury suf-
sered a severe drain because of the plague
raging In the islands Il was decided to
cut the 100000 appropriation In hal. Not
w~ithstanding that, at the request Of the
government, the worlds fair management
agreed TO spend the additional 10000.
Recently DIR. w. II. Wilson, chairman of
the Philippine Island commission. wrote,
skins II the executive commission wolud
confirm this agreement. This was done.
/ will repeat that the exposition com
pany still stands ready TO put up the sl0o,-
900 to be used with the $4,000 appropria-
ton by the Philippine government for an
exhibit.

Fifteen hundred Polanders from Toledo
