"Great Britain could not be expected to treat with the courtesy due to foreign navies a service In which such officers twere retained.

CHIEFS TO REDUCE EXPENSES President Francis Sends Letters to Heads of Departments, Oat lining Policy of Retrench ment. Further retrenchment In the current operating expenses of the World's Fair 13 to be put in force Immediately. Yester day a circular letter, signed by President Francis, was sent to the heads of "epart ments directing them to put into effect means, of reducing the outlay. President Frandsfs letter stated that at a recent meeting of the Executive Committee the prospects of the Exposi tion had been duly considered, and that as a result heads of departments were Instructed to cut down all expenditures practicable in their branches of the serv ice. This Is considered absolutelyneces sary, according to" President Francis. The daily operating expenses of the Falr .amount to about $65.00. They were especially counseled to re duce the purchase of supplies for their departments to the minimum, and to cut down their office forces wherever possi ble without waiting for the end of the This latter clause of the letter is taken to Indicate a wholesale dismissal of em ployes, such as occurred, last July, when the Initial retrenchment of expenses was Inaugurated. t . ... In many departments of the Exposition the work is practically finished, save for the rendering of a final report, which may be accomplished by the chief of the de partment. This Is notably the case in the Ceremonies, Reception and Entertainment, Pres and Publicity and Domestic Ex ploitation departments. ' Of the departments that will remain to the end of the Fair there are all of tho?e ln-the divisions of Exhibits and of Works, those of the Division of Concessions and Admissions, the Auditing. Medical. Sup- flies and Jefferson Guards departments-, n these departments many assistant chiefs and superintendents of bureaus probably will go by the board before the end of- the Fair. There are several departments -which probably will be maintained even after the close of the Fair. These are the Legal. Treasurer's. Auditing. Transporta tion and several departments in the" Di vision of Works. A contingent of the Secretary's office probably will be retained after the Fair, as the Secretary's depart ment will take on all the functions of many of the departments to wind up the affalis of the Exposition.
