Instead of being a mere ' t port It la an overpopulated city Into which .travelers, come every hour. iM-The navies of tbe earth are dropping "t , thei -anchors in its port. Along Its Barrow streets the tongues of 'all : f part of the globe are heard.: And ;, beneath the whispering pines and ancestral - oaks : on the low-lyliig '.v shores of Hampton Roads people by I . m - the thousand- are hurrying in pveryM ' conveyan9 possible, ' from electric cars to old wagons to view tbe btilld- Ings and grounds of the exposition i that will be opened by the president t : of the United States tomorrow..'

But the buildings, grounds and ,; exhibits of tlra "exposition are n(it completed.! ' It is estimated by those familiar With the situation , that ' it i j. will oe at. least three 'weeks or a . month before the exposition will be ' y. In 'good shape for the. public. ' " ,' ; f" .Reasons for the Aelay.. s V' ' : ; -'.For - this delay in the completion of fhe buildings and grounds there , ' are the following explanations; f '.The builders have been confronted . 'by the terrible .weather VV for wo months. " -,!, - -t1,, 'J " "The frequent1 enforced cessation '-..''pt-work' has retarded everything." ; .Ybt' a long time there were inade- - Quate facilities for transporting from Norfolk te tbe exposition grounds the Jfrelght needed.'. . , - , - ,i" . It has ibe,en .paj-ticular hard i to to i ' secUrrf enough laborers' to do the work mapped out. Any able-bodied man- who can get to Norfolk can get a Job and fcetjt right away. ; ' These facts are the-reason for the incompleteness of the exposition. It Is estimated that today, 8,000 men are working within the grounds and still the jory for workmen is Inces sant', Yesterday the wen were taken off the work of preparing the exhib its and were confined exclusively t paving streets and ' finishing; build-' lngs.' Street paving Is one of the greatest problems , the ..exposition company now has to face, Up to date only one, street has been paVed. Th)s is important because ' in . the event of rain tomorrow the mud will be so deep under the thousands of feet that many of the buildings which 're partially completed will be closed to the public as the mud brought in by the slght-seers would, deface the floors. . 'It is 'a8 questionable whether the great electrical display for to morrow night will , be carried out. This Is duo to the delay In shipment of some of the electrical apparatus for the display. Gas is also said to be somewhat scarce at present al thougbt this will be remedied within a short, while. But these are things that will noV bother' the public on the opening day. The great naval display In the harbor in full view of the magnifi cent - boulevard; that stretches be tween' the state buildings and tbe harbor the length" of. the grounds; the military pageant on the parade grounds and tne president's apeecn will, be throe such big features that the crowds will eare for little elBe. v Greatest Show the World Ever Saw.
