Facts and Figures in Regard to Expo
sition Appropriation.

The favorable report of the commit
tee appointed to consider the petition
for the appropriation of sos 900 to the
jamestown exposition, has given rise
to many complaints from persons who
believe the appropriation too large.
Consequently figures have been pre-
pared to show the size of the West
Virginia appropriation in contrast wit
that of other states. These figures and
accompanying statement were submit
ted by Hon. Virgil A. Lewis, secretary
of the jamestown commission.
Virginia, $450,000; New York, $3.50,
600; Pennsylvania, 100000, exact re-
production of independence hall; New
Jersey, $4,000 Ohio, $4,000; Mary
land, $50, 900, reproduction of home of
Charles Carroll Missouri, 100000;

nounced That the Defense Was
Ready For Trial At Once.

Special Dispatch to The World.
New York, Jan. 23.-There was q
fierce scramble for seats on the part
1f sensation hunters when the doors
10 the court room in which Harry
Thaw will be tried for the murder OF
Stanford White we're thrown open this
morning and almost In twinkling ev.
cry seat open to the public was oc.
cupied, with hundreds more unable to
even gain entrance TO the room. A no
tieeable feature was the fact that 22S
newspaper correspondents and report.
ers applied for places from which to
report the proceedings Of what prom
ises to be the most sensational trial of
recent years. The court room only
seats $50 persons.
Harry Thaw, the prisoner, appeared
in the court room, accompanied by his
attorneys. His manner was cheerful
without the slightest trace of nervous
ness. To a newspaper man he express
ed himself as glad that the day for the
commencement OF his trial had at last
arrived
When asked b. the court whether
the defense was ready to 90 to trial
the lawyers for Thaw promptly replied
in the affirmative.
II would not surprise any OF those
most directly concerned If the task of
filing the jury box should prove to be
long and tedious In celebrated homi
eide trials of late years 1t has not in
frequently happened that the first
week, or even a longer time, has been
consumed in this preliminary process
before the presentation of word of
evidence
In the selection of the jury which Is
to judge him it is Thaw's intention to
take as active a part personally as his
position permits. Thaw fiatters him
self that he is a fairly good Judge of
human nature and that he can read
character betted than most young men
OF his years If a prospective jury
mans manner or appearance should
not please him. even though that man
be acceptable TO the court and district
attorney, the talisman is likely TO find
one of the defendants peremptory
exhausted to exclude him
from the box
