Especial Worlds Fair letter.
Very well represented as to quality
but very inadequately as to quantity,
Austria Hungary, the dual and rather
incomprehensible empire, shows her
self at the worlds fair. For one Of the
great powers Of the world, for coun-
try that has q rich historical past and
whose population outnumbers at the
present day that of France, she makes
but a sorry display. But the reasons
for this are not far to seek. The
Austrian commissioners. here, in his in.
terview with the writer, lays it all to
Americas. tariff legislation, and no
doubt that had much to do with it,
since it has virtually killed number
Of more or less imperfect industries in
Austria, the pearl button industry in
eluded. But another and just as POI
tent reason for the inadequacy of Aus
tria's exhibit is to be found in the het-
erogeneousness of her population
there being some 81 nationalities and
races dwelling under the shadow Of
the double-headed Austrian eagles
wings-and in the poorly developed in
dustry and commerce Of the land as q
whole.
Thus, then, we see that Austria COW
ers but 90, 900 square feet OF space in
the whole exposition grounds-as
against Germany's SOC, 900 and frances
100000. Little Belgium even is taxi
ing up more space. And of the co.
square feet 1000 are in the Manufac-
lures building, the balance OF
$4,000 being distributed in Agricul-
tural hall, and in the buildings devoted
to . display of mining, machinery,
electricity, transportation, art and fe-
male industry. And In all these Aus
tria Is measurably strong only In two
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. and Art.
But to be fair 1t must be conceded
that what she shows us is. with few
exceptions, of the finest quality and
often of artistic excellence. And that
Austria does made quite fair and ef-
fective showing, after all, wherever
she appears with her curious COM
posite flag and national crest, is due in
very large measure to the superior
men she has sent over here as her rep
resentatives-Dr. A, Won Palitschek,
