; la the opinion of Secretary Shaw the
exposition company ennuot expect
more from the government than enough
money to provide nttrnctlve. extensive
dorklnc facilities and favorable opporV
lunity for all visitors to soe the naval
display. Ho aald he does not 'think
congress will appropriate money for
more than this, and that attempts to
force more extensive plans on congress
might result In failure.
The secretory said tho country can
not afford to have tho exposition fall
because the participation of foreign
navies will make the affair more in
ternatloniU In character than any pre
vious fair. For this reason he urged
that the scope of the exposition be
narrowed and all effort concentrated
on a marine exhibit. .
BIG STOCKS LOSE
3 TO 12 POINTS
(By the Associated Press.)
New York, Feb. 28. Very heavy
liquidation was precipitated In the aloci
market today by the catling of loans
and the forcing out of speculative hold
ings by large poo'.s. There was no con.
splcuous development in the situation
outside of the activity In the money
market to 'account for the weakness,
but a feeling of dtsmmt over the spscu.
lativo situation which has been growing
for some time reached a sudden . culj-
nilnatlon. Declines were violent and
practically, no support developed In tot
way .of sufficient demand to arrest the
decline. . - ,
Fears over tho failure, of tha sup
posed plan for the purchase' of the
Great Northern ore lands by the Unit"
States Steel corporation accounted, fof
the special weakness In the Hill stocks.
Distrust over the copper merger rulers
played havoc in. the metal: group, but
he weukness became very general, wl. b
losses of 3 to 1? points, resulting in a
long list of the most prominent stocks
In the market., v
