awards they have made, disclosing for the
first time that the foreign exhibitors will
secure 63 per cent of the prizes, while the
American exhibitors will receive only 81 per
cent.
Chairman Thatcher of the board says this
showing will put an end TO the criticisms
made by the foreigners, and takon up in this
country, that the foreign exhibitors were
not receiving full consideration. He antici-
pates that tho American exhibitors will now
be heard from. and that they will feel that
the board has not been sufficiently patriotic
toward homo exhibitors. But MIR. lhacher
says he and his associates have been gov
erned by the finding of the judges, and that
the latter are responsible for giving the

pose of them before the holidays. The re-
publican members do no. relish the idea OF

leaders, refrained from voting, except those
from the far west, and especially those from
the newly admitted states of Washington,
Montana, idaho, the Dakotas and Wyoming,

LONDON, Dec. 1.-THE correspondent of
the Post at Berlin says: Chancellor Ca
privi's speech in the Rcichstag yesterday
was made when he was fresh from an
audience with the emperor. He was evil
IDENTIFY in the highest spirits and treated the
Relchstag to n speech of such point and
nerve as has not been heard by that
body since Prince Bismarck retired
to private life. In his reference TO
the currency question the chancellor
denied that the buying power of
gold has risen high enough 10 injure Ger
man husbandry. The Prussian minister of
commerce., he said, was to make inquiries on
the subject extending into the interior of
Australia and Africa, and the result of this
inquiry must be awaited. The head of the
English government, MIR. Gladstone, had
most pointedly expressed his untagonism
to bimctallism and, therefore, IL change in
the attitude of England could not be hoped
for. If he himself, continued the chancellor,
were a fanatical blmetallist, he would not,
under present circumstances, move n single
step in that direction.
