ton improves the attendance increases. On Satur-
day the number of paying admissions was 2O.loo
bringing in $4,000 cash, which about pays the
running expenses. To-day, the mornings warm
weather and the afternoons storm checked tho tide

the Exhibition is growing IN its hold upon the pub
lie, and may ripen into even a paying enterprise.

peced to fall off largely in view of the general out
pouring to the cemeteries where the ceremonies of
Decoration Day will be performed.
Fifty cases of American goods and two from for
eign countries have just arrived at Machinery Hall.
