STILL WANT EXPOSITION.
Virginia Members of Congress Not
Willing for the jamestown Celebra-
ton to be Abandoned

Washington, December 10.-General
FftZhugh Lee, president of the James,
town Exposition Company, had a talk
with President Roosevelt today about
the exposition. He thanked the Presi-
dent for his interest in the project. as
expressed in his message. He referred
to the announcement that the sub-com-
mittee of the House committee on in
duStrial arts and expositions had de-
cided not to recommend an appropria-
ton for the Jamestown Exposition, but
would recommend that provision be
made for naval display there. The
promoters of the enterprise expected
that an appropriation would be made
by the government for the exposition
and they feel that, as they favored the
appropriations for the st. Louis and
Portland expositions, they ought to
have similar treatment. The Virginia
members of Congress will make a con-
test for the appropriation.

THE LARGE COTTON CROP.
Government Report Shows Increases
of 3.46 Per Cent. as to Acreage and
21 Per Cent as to Number of Bales.

The price OF spot cotton in New York
yesterday was s cents and although the
market in Wilmington was quoted as
nominal, II was learned that IA cents
was paid.
Several men who keep up with the
cotton market say it is hard for them
to see how the government can est
mate the crop at 12.1S2. 600 when the
acreage is estimated in round numbers
at 10000 900. The acreage of the pre-
v;ious year was IS. 907. .G9O and the crop
IN even numbers 10000. 900 bales This
shows an increase OF 1.110, 900 acres. or
3.45 per cent. over 1908, and the crop
as reported. shows an increase OF 2,162,-
0co bahes, or q per cent over that CT
1903, According to this report the yield
per acre has increased greatly over
that OF 1903 and many think the per-
ce7tage in yield entirely out of proeo--
ton to the increase IN acreage.

Congress May be Called Together III
the Fall to Revise the Tariff.

Washington, December 10.-No extra
ordinary session Of Congress will be
held next Spring for a revision Of the
tariff. That has been decided definitely
The question of an extraordinary ses-
sion next fall is in allegiance.
President Roosevelt announced this
decision to several OF his callers today.
The President said he had abandoned
any idea of convening Congress in the
Spring, as it did not seem practicable
to hold a session for tariff revision at
that time. He indicated, however,
that he might call a session for next
fall, although no absolute determine
tfon of that point yet has been reached
In view of this decision the president
told Representative Cooper of Texas.
that he had decided to make a southern
trip early next Spring.
w. S. Tebbetts, collector of customs
at Mobile. Ala, on behalf OF the city
government of Mobile, invited the Pres
idenr to visit that city on his southern
trip. Later the invitation will be ex-
tended formally in writing.

Norfolk. Va, December 1.-Fire that
broke out at 1870 this Sunday morn
ing in the lumber yard of Robinson
and Company, Portsmouth, is beyond
control of the entire Portsmouth fire
department and is sweeping through
a whole block before a high wind. \
shower Of fire brands is falling on suc-
rounding property. The fire district s
bounded by High, Queen, Chestnut and
Pine streets, and the property on il is
devoted to a large lumber yard, a plan
ing mill, lumber mill and sash and door
factory.
At O'Clock there had been no cheek
put to the progress of the fine, and the
heart Of the residential section of
Portsmouth is in danger. A hign
northwest wind and freezing weather is
adding to the difficulty in fighting the
fire.
At 2:3O the fire was practically under
control, but 40 estimate of the loss can
be secured at this time
At 3 O'Clock the firemen have checked
the flames in time to save the office
building of the Robinson Company, sit
uated at the extreme northern part of
the block. The strong wind from the
northwest aided in saving this portion
Of the property. The fire has been con-
fined to the square in which it origi-
mated and the buildings destroyed are
those used as Planning mill, lumber mill
and the sash and blind factory and
power house. President Robinson OF
the lumber company says he is unable
at this time to give any estimate of the
loss.

New York, December 10.-Mrs. Cassie
in the tombs Phillip Carpenter her
attorney, informed the Associated
Press tonight that she would not go 70
Cleveland before Monday, and the be-
lief is prevalent that she will not go to
the Ohio city without a fight. Her
counsel, both here and in Ohio, unite
in opposing her voluntary departure
from New York.
1t was said late tonight that a bonds
man has been found who will qualify
in $4,000 the amount of bail demand
ed by United states Commissioner
Shields before whom Mrs. Chadwick
was arraigned. The name of the person
will not be made public until Monday
when it is said he will sign the bond.
The matter according to the authority
for the statement could have been
settled today, but Mrs. Chadwick de-
sired TO remain in the tOmbs over Sun
day that she might have more time to
consider her future action. They would
have given the necessary bail had they
been able to do so without their names
becoming public, but the law states
that the identity of the bondsmen can
not be kept secret. 1t is also contrary
to the courts ruling for a lawyer to give
bail for his client.
Mrs. Chadwick remained quietly in
her cell today receiving no callers other
than her counsel, son and nurse. She
availed herself of the privileges which
allow prisoners to exercise in the cor
ridor during certain hours and also read
the papers besides receiving several
letters and kilograms
Relieved from the nervous tension
which proceeded her arrest, Mrs. Chad
wick is recovering her normal physical
edhdition. She had a severe attack Of
illness in the afternoon but readily re-
sponded to treatment and is much be-
tween tonight. Her appetite is good
and she ate three hearty meals today.
Just what has become of the money
Mrs. Chadwick is alleged to have rails
ed on loans is question which is inter-
esting the persons connected with the
case
1t has been claimed that three years
ago she settled s2,5OOO0O on her hus-
band, DR.. Leroy S. Chadwick and that
since that time She has borrowed over
100000. A rumor is current tonight
that efforts viii be made at once to To-
cate DR.. Chadwick and his daughter
who sailed to Havre, France, on the
steamer Savoie, from this port Novem-
ber 3. They have been reported from
several places in Europe, but Mrs.
Chadwick and her attorneys have kept
their exact whereabouts a secret. An
other matter of interest in the case is
the statement that DR.. Chadwick is
said to have given Herbert D. Newton,
Of Brookline, Mass, two checks aggre-
eating $5G,0G0 in part payment for his
wife's Indebtedness and which are al
legged to have come back from the bank
from which they were drawn stamped
without funds
1t was intimated today that if DIR.
Chadwick does not return from Europe
soon these checks may figure in inter-
national proceedings.
Mrs. Chadwick received a note in her
cell today informing her that the pack
age held by Iri Reynolds of Cleveland
had been opened and found valueless.
She read the note carefully and with
apparent interest but refused to MAKE
any statement.

The record for the time was 2,i3o
miles 4 laps.
The teams were on the track 142
hours and the race was concluded al
10 O'Clock tonight.
Notwithstanding handicaps that
threatened at one time to mar the sue
cess of the race matters were amlcaoly
settled and the contest proved inter-
eSting and popular.
There were 5000 spectators at the gar
den at 2 o'clock this morning, many
of whom stayed through to the finish
and all day long their numbers were
augmented.
Root and Dorlon and Stol and Van
derstuyft were the leading teams at
;,a;i:selson and Williams ana Gougoltz
and Ereton, who seemed inspired with
renewed courage. Root and Stol were
the best men on their respective teams,
and they rode all day long with great
dash and vim.
Samuelson, the holder of the unpaced
mile record, electrified the spectators
many times during the day by his
spurts. Starting from the top of the
high bank he would get a 20 yard start
before the leaders could reach the:r
highest speed. Once he gained nall a
lap, but after a stern chase of three
miles Root and Stol caught him.
In the afternoon Logan and Keegan
stole a lap after the hardest efforts and
got within two laps Of the leaders and
one lap ahead of Gougoltz and Breton.
The work of Keegan was especially
noticeable as he suffered a fractured
nose and badly wrenched shoulder
earlier in the week.
A feature of the riding tonight was
| the apparent freshness Of the riders.
They had been given no stimulants and
despite the awful grind of the last six
days they showed fine stamina. The
race opened at 1912 o'clock on Mon
day morning, with eighteen teams
competing, but these gradually
dwindled down until but seven were
| left to fight for the purse. Some of the
competitors left the track because the
demands of the races were beyond tn"
limit of their endurance and a number
of others quit, alleging that one of the
| teams stole a lap unfairly. The team
| which finally won the battle had bean
riding hard and fast all the week ami
the victory was anticipated.
| Despite the distance attained by the
winners it did not compare with the
record 2773 miles and laps made by
| Miller and Waller in 1899.
