ORFXONTAN NTCWS BTJRBATT. Wash
ington. April 17. congress.
havlnit been bled out of a cool 90n,nnr
by the 'Jameetown Kxpoaltlon, made
short work of the bill Introduced by
Representative Maynard appropriating;
$.1,500,000 to buy the Jamestown site
for a naval stntion. jameaiown w,,,
not get another cent out of Congress,
tor it has failed to deal aqtmrely In the
past, and in these days of reform It
must bo a square deal, or no further
favors.
The fact la gradually oawnmK upon
the country that the Jamestown rair
waa pretty much of a Job from start to
finish. The charge la openly made In
Washington that the exposition was
promoted by men owning real estate on
which the exposition was located, and
land adiolnlng. for the purpose 01 en
hancing; valuee, which, prior to the ex
position, amounted to practically noth
ing. Subsequent events lend strong;
color to these reports, for It Is evident
that from the first It was the Intention
of the Kxpoaltlon Company to unload
Its grounds onto the Government after
the fihow closed..
But there la one thin about tne
Jamestown crowd that U to be admired
their supreme nerve. They watited
$3,500,000 for the exposition grounds;
land that could probably nave oeen
purchased before the Exposition for
$50,000, and the owners would have
been glad to unload at that price. The.
ground is not desirable. It la low, flat
and close to swampfl. Moreover, whll
It fronts oh Hampton Roads, there Is
no depth of water which would permit
naval vessels to approach within a
Quarter of a mile of the ehore.
When the government ouya naval
atations It wants land that Is on deep
water. Tt has a Navy-Yard at Charlee
ton that has been a most expensive ex
perlment, because it was located on
shallow water, and the Navy-Yard at
Mare Island Is heavily handicapped be
cauae the larger naval vessels cannot
reach its docke. In view of past ex
perience. Congress would run a mighty
rliOc in buying; a naval station on shal
low water, when It would cost millions
to dredge out channels to the station
after It parsed Into the hands of th
Government. From a purely political
standpoint. Congress could not afford,
Just prior to a National campaign, to
enter into any e-uch foul-smelling deal
as that proposed by the Jamestown
crowd.
Washington haa been flooded with
lady excursionists for the past few
days, and every lady in the crowd has
p.id a visit to the, Capitol building
Visitors are shown through the Capitol
hy guides, and when picking Is good,
they go through in parties of a dozen
or more. One day. Just after the Senate
adjourned, a guide and party went into
the Vice-President's room. They were
fortunate in finding the Vice-President
at his desk, and he courteously dropped
his correspondence and rose to shake
hands with his callers. While the re
ception was at Its height, another guide
and party hove in sight.
He saw at a glance that the Vice
Presidents room was filled, and that
he would have to wait some time to get
his party Inside, so he undertook to
satisfy their curiosity with a casual
remark, hoping thfy would be content
and pass along, for if there Is anything
a Capitol guide hate to doit is to
spend unnecessary time with his vic
tims. This guide lined up his party in
front of the Vice-President's door, and
In a voice clearly audible by those in
aide, said: "This Is the Vice-President s
office, bat there ts nothing In there
worth seeing except the chandelier, and
you can see that through the doorway.
Just then tne Vice-President stuck his
head out the door, the guide collapsed,
ana a secona reception followed.
