MORE PAPERS OUT AGAINST THE FAIR.
The BorSep Courier follows the Tossisch,
Zeitupg and the Tdgeblah in carping at the
| Chicago Worlds Fair project, ON the ground
of the growth of American hostility to
everybody and everything outside the
United States. The Courier, in dwelling on
the United States laws against pauper emi-
grants, uses the amazing argument that
"Pauper emigrants laid the foundation of
the grandeur of the Republic" Despite
these occasional yelpIngs, the popularity of
the Fair seems certain to "boom." The
Imperial and official circles have taken the
enterprise into favor, and the whole of in
dustrial Germany will follow.
The American Worlds Fair Commits
sioners, being interviewed just previous to
starting from this city for Frankfort, con-
CURED in praising the warmth of the official
greetings which had been extended to them.
This pleasant state of affairs, they declared,
was largely due to the energetic efforts of
Mr.. William Walter Phelps, United States
Minister to Germany, who in spite of his
recent illness was vigorously preparing the
way for proper recognition OF the Ameri-
can Commission. Ex-Congressman Butter
worth, of Ohio, one of the four Commits
cio Said ba rnnaptior which he and his
colleagues had been given during their visit
to this city, equaled in friendliness and
heartiness, shown by all with hIwhom they had
come in contact, their experiences in London
and Paris.
THEIR RECEPTION WAS MOST KIND.
"In no American city," continued Mr..
Butterworth, could spontaneous or more
kindly greeting be expected by the people.
The highest officials of the Government
warmly assured us of hearty cooperation
in the endesvors being made to have Ger
many fully represented at the great exhi-
bition. Some slight opposition has
arisen in this country on account of the new
American tariff law, but this will be en-
tirely removed as the projects for which the
Fair is to be held become better known to
the people"
Mr.. Moses P. Handy, of Philadelphia,
another member of the Commission, in re-
ferring to the attacks made on the Commits
sioners by the VoSSiScbe Leitl1ag said that
when he read the articles in question he
saw that they had been inspired by some
here or in New York, whose in
terest it is to keep the American buyer
from direct intercourse with the foreign
'If these meet through the |
Fair, he said, "the business of the middle |
men will suffer"
Judge Lindsay holds that if the enthusiasm
with which the Commission has been re- |
ceived in Berlin continues, Germany will !
stand at the head of the foreign nations |
sending exhibits to the fair. Herr Wer- |
nuth, the German commissioner for the |
Fair, and Secretary Coleman, of the Amer
can Legation, accompanied the commits
'ioners to the railway station, where the
imperial waiting room was placed at their
disposal, to bid them farewell The rail-
way officials were assiduous in their efforts
o make the Commissioners trip pleasant
me. Herr Wermuth says Emperor Will
am shows such interest in lnquiring into
for German representation at
he Fair as suggests, that it is his intention
personally to grace the Fair with his pres
