Prince BlsmarcK's visit to the American depart
ment OF the Machinery Hal was an event OF no
4 little excitement and interest to our exhibitors
This department has, as you are well aware. gained
\ for US all the real honors-u we except the educa
tiona, that we have secured at Vienna, and 1t was
nattering enough TO hear the Prince say that his
purpose In visiting the Machinery Hall on the alter
| noon IN question was "to look at American ma
chinery, OF which he had heard so much" Per
one OF the German members OF the In.
ternational Jury, Professor Reuleaux, to
his government, who said Il quote from copy OF
his report handed to me few days ago. :-"In the
field OF Inventions and inventive genius America
holds In the Exposition the first rank. Her exhibit
tions OF machinery bear almost exclusively the
character OF originality. 1t may be said that IN
machine industry England has partly lost her

least about to lose it. The healthy young trans
atlantic industry which Is continually drawing rom

BISMARCK AMONG Us.
Be this as II may, the Prince came to look at
American machinery, and soon became so inter-
ested IN examining II tnat he forgot the lapse OF
the ten minutes he had originally designed TO spend
in the department, and stage with us nearly three
quarters OF an hour-from quarter before to nalf

friendship towards US which we had not expected;

by Mr.. Pickering to the woodworking machinery

part OF the building" and several of the more In
terestlng machines were put into operation. one OF
our most characteristic machines In this branch
namely, that or pal-making-was unfortunately
no longer running, the owner having taken offence
to levy small tax on the pals made
and SOLD, and taken hasty leave for
more congenial climes across the big
water. However, the rest OF the machines worked
well, and Prince Bismarck, after putting pieces OF
wood IN q turning lathe, made Mr.. Pickering happy

anything else in America, and, consequently,

Mr.. Pickering smiled and told the Prince that this

than Is the case with similar things In Austria and
pointed out the virtue OF the cold rolled snafting

stead ol the $50 run in the other departments, In
order TO keep pace with the progress made by our
manufacturers OF woodworking machinery.
NEW ENGLAND SHOES AND WOOL sPiNSERS.
After pausng few moments at the brush-mak-
ing macalne the Prince entered the Ausy corner
devoted to the New England snoe manufacturing
business where covering for the pedal extreml-
ties can be sewed, pegged and polished in the
space OF SIX or seven MINUTES or less. He watched
