Mr. Peek, the so-"ullod "Archltcct of
the Commissioners" said that the cot

Hall, and DR., Alien, the Supcrintcnd-
cnt of that hall, granted five hundred
square feet of space in the centre OF
the building for that purpose. jlc Then
went 10 see the cotton, and when he
saw what q magnificent trophy II
would make, together with the sugar
cane. sugar and molm es, crude and
refined, and the bales of beautiful,
soft, gray Southern moss, he SAID ut

my department, but in truth 1t 1t does
not belong there. The French and
English have their cotton in the
Main Place. There ntYer was such II
display of cotton SEM to Il WORLDS

Reck insisted that it must 70 Ia the
Agricultural Hall, and hc:nd DIR. Allen
had some words on the subject before
Mr.. Schultz, who had decided with
Reck. But the matter was dropped for
the time being and three weeks elaps-
ed before decision was made in regard
to.it. Meanwhile, DIR. Allen was urg-
ing Mr.. Gottheil to visit Mr.. Jay in re-
gard TO the matter, even OfieringtO ac-
company him; but Mr.. Gottheil, feel
ing wounded by his suspension and the.
treatment he had received from the
new commissioner, did not feel inclin-
cd to follow the advice. After three
weeks, it was decided to keep it in the
Industrial Palace, bnt instead Of put
ting it in the place of honor III the
American transept, space VISA taken
from Brazil and Venezuela and there
the trophy erected; and it will not be
surprising if many who see it imagine
it south American display, instead of
u North American. ...,
Having decided where il waste lie
placed, the question HOW arose as to
style of arrangement. Having a per.
s0nai interest in the matter and hay
ing made 1t a study, of course Mr. Gott-
he'll had u design, but was not looked
at, and Mr.. Reck, the "Architect OF
the Commission, who, as some sarcas-.
tically say, is hardly competent to tell
wool from cotton, was trusted With the
Arrangement. - .'
Taking few OF the bales, he erected
Il pyranilal monument, and ornn-
mented il somewhat with nlOss and
other products; the remainder of the
cotton he piled IN n heap against the
DIOR going from the South American
into the English department, and there
it lay until ordered by Baron Sclwar2
to be removed ont of the way, and now.
1t lies in heap near the cotton mnnu-
ment. So we, with our yas,. amount
of superior cotton, do not make as ar
