PRAISE FOR THE Big SHOW
Cortelyou's Assistant Says Gov
ernment Is Anxious to Make
1t Success.
It a Success
BY WAITER EDWARD HARRIS.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. July 1.-THE
Treasury Department will not vouch-
safe any information concerning
whether an extension of time in which
the first payment on the loan made the
Exposition Company by the
government will be allowed. Secretary
Cortelyon was not in his Office when
] called this afternoon. Assistant Sec
retary Edwards. who is the represen
tative of the department on the ter
centennial board, said in response to a
question: THE department is not say
ing whether such an extension Will be
made If there is need for 1t, have
little doubt it will be granted The
exposition is one of the best and most
generally attractive in the history of
the country, and this department wants
to do everything possible to bring to
1t that measure of success which 1t
deserves
Mr.. Edwards said that the statement
Issued yesterday by Secretary Cortel-
YOU. after conference with Director
General Barr, covered the ground COM
pletely. The impression exists that an
extension of time has been granted the
company.
