The East Indian exhibit is likely to
develop into large and attractive dis
play. United States Consul General
Ballantine at Bombay, in a recent com
munication to Director General Davis,
shows that interest in the worlds fair
is becoming very general in the large
cities and at some of the native courts
of India. The native princes as well
as opulent merchants and manufacture
ers are now fully awakened to the inn
portance of representation.
Consul General Ballantine paid an Of
fetal visit to the court of his highness
the guicowar or maharajah of Baroda.
The guicowar of Baroda is the most i'm
portant prince in western India. After
showing Consul General Ballantine
every attention the prince confirmed his
promise of assistance given in a pre-
vious interview by officially instructing
his prime minister to give every assur-
aace of assistance, and added that he
would get an exhibit from his principal
ity representing a value of certainly
not less than ten thousand rupees and
probably much more. The guicowar
added that he would possibly make this
much larger and more extensive. His
action in this regard is most likely to
induce other native princes to follow it.
The guicowar's brother, his eXcelleney
Sumgatra, has already promised to visit
Chicago. With n large retinue of Off
GERS and attendants he contemplates
visiting England next year. The visit
Of native East Indian prince, sur
rounded by HI; official staff and retinue
OF native assistants, would be a striking
and attractive incident of the exposition
period.
The official jewcler to his highness,
the maharajah of Clutch, has decided to
send rare specimens of filigree gold end
silver work. The brahmo samaj of In
dia in Calcutta has chosen Babu p. C.
Mozoomdar. and the arya sanaj OF In
dia has selected Swami askaranand
aa representatives of their IIindoo aects
to the worlds religious congress to be
held ut Chicago III connectlon with
the exposition. Hindoo gentle
man is making arrangements for tw,
hundred of his countrymen to visit the
fair.
