EXPOSITION GIVEN
THE ICE PITCHER
NORFOLK, VA„ Nov. 2.—(Special)
—The report is current here that
President Roosevelt is disinclined to
again visit the Exposition, because he
is displeased at the lack of respect
which the Exposition board of direc
tors treated Secretary of the Treas
ury Cortelyou in the matter of the
selection of a successor to James M.
Burr as director-general.
The President was recently asked
to make another visit here. The an
nouncement created surprise, for in
the light of previous information
coming from Washington and indicat
ing the displeasure of the Adminis
tration with the management of
Jamestown, it required an optimistic
spirit to think that the President
would make a third visit.
