THE EXPOSITION
 NOT COMPLETED

Jamestown, Va, May 15.-This was the day when the Exposition was to be completed, but it is far from that. There are those who say it won't be completed until July, and some even declare that it won't be completed at all Certainly everything is at loose ends, and there is an air of incomplete ness that is very painful. The loaning to the Exposition of $400,000, the sum asked by the managers, by Thomas ]. Ryan, has helped it's progress to a marked degree, but there has been too much to be done, and it's completeness still remains in the far distant vista. The managers, however, consider that they have made good progress and as- sure the public that the exposition is today in a good condition.

New York, Sept. 3.-The most inn

the glory of the fastest westward
passage, the challenger must reach the
bar not later than SAC o'clock this
morning.
Indications last night were that she
would reach the finish line about 8
o'clock Allowing for the difference in
time, this would make her trip days
hour and 25 minutes. Thus she
would beat the Lucania record by six
hours, but would not equal the com
parative time of her German rival
1t is believed however, that her best
time has not been made on this trip
and that she is unquestionably the
fastest liner afloat.
The Lusitania last night reported by
wireless that her average speed had
been 1885 an hour and her highest
days run was 593 miles.
Supremacy Came Naturally.
