stration In his honor by the congres

and the delegation of businessmen
and officials I mm Washington who
were also present nud pleaded for an
appropriation for tho exposition.
Secretary Tall thought on account
of tho finances of the Philippines tho
government would not be able to
make an exhibition of considerable
size, but said the war depart nient
would have tho Jamestown Philip
pine exhibit sent to Seattle.
In an Indirect way Secretary Taft
touched upon the relations between
Japan and the United States. Tho
exposition at Seattle, lie thought,
would have a good effect all over tha
Pacific, and declared it would help
In the Interest of trade with the Ori
net, and bring tbe peoples of both
sides of tho Pacific Into closer relations.
