and Agricultural halls the foreigners are
almost as conspicuous relatively as they
are in the great main structure, and in the
Electricity and Machinery departments
they are lively rivals for supremacy. The
best display in the Mining building is
made by a German house, and outside the
principal departments there Is no single
exhibit that compares In popular interest
with that of Krupp and his great gun. In
the Transportation building the Eng
lish show their locomotives and coaches
their switching and other devices, and the
display of models of ships and steamers, of
boats and vehicles, is worldwide in its
scope.
But for our foreign friends the most
novel and picturesque feature of the fair,
the Midway plaisance, would be rather
dismal. This stretch of ground is sort
of side-show, and of the forty concessions
more than one-half are for foreign curl
osities or aggregations. Here is the true
Cosmopolitanville. A simple list of the
shows, and this an incomplete one, is suffi-
cient to indicate to the reader that If he
wishes to see the world and its people he
need not spend n thousand dollars in cir
cumnavigating the earth, but simply come
here and spend five-dollar note in adj
mission fees. Here are the international
beauty show, the Irish village, the Ger
man village, the Tyrolese, the japanese
bazaar, the Fiji islanders, the men from
Borneo and New Zealand, the street in
Cairo with shop and mosque, the Chinese
village, the Turkish bazaar, a model of st.
Peters at Rome, the Dahomey village, the
Laplanders, Buffalo Bills American In
dians, an Algerian temple and theater, q
French cider press, a Vienna cafe, Moor
islfpalace, two crack military bands from
the German army, and Hagenback's ag-
gregation of the animals Of all climes and
lands will make n fitting complement of
this most complete display of ofinternational
life, industry and trade ever brought to-
gether. These are all money-making de-
vices, and an admission fee is charged to
see most of the sights, but the fees are
moderate and all the regulations and the
police control are under the management
Of the exposition.
Taking the exposition as q whole, the
latest official figures show that fifty for
eign nations and thirty-seven of their
colonies are participating in one way or
another. They have together made the
Columbian exposition notable for the
number, the richness and interesting char
acter of the international exhibit. Not
even at Paris, It is said, was the cosmopol-
itanism more conspicuous or picturesque.

BEHRING SEA TRIBUNAL
Sir Charles Russell Takes Up England's q
Side OF the Case.


PARIS, May ll.-Attorney General Sir
Charles Russell Of counsel for Great
Britain before the Behring sea tribunal of
arbitration began his address yesterday in
behalf Of the British case. The court room
was thronged with English and American
residents Of Paris and with visitors from
abroad. Sir Charles began by bestowing
generous praise on the arguments OF
Messrs. Carter and Coudert of counsel for
the United States as full of intellectual
allurements.
He thought that Mr.. Carter's line Of
argument had taken him into the misty
clouds Of metaphysical and ethical dis
cussion, which had no bearing upon the
case. He had also built strongholds which
were legally indefensible.
Sir Charles remarked on the change of
front in various parts of the American
argument The courage, not to say the
audacity, with which American counsel
had propounded as propositions of law
propositions which had no legal founda-
tion, had greatly interested him.
Sir Charles agreed with the Americans
that II was preferable that the seals should
be exterminated rather than that the tri-
bunal should swerve from the straight line
of the law. The whole question had been
exaggerated. The counsel for the United
States had dwelt upon the cost of Alaska
and the value OF that territory to the
United States on account of the seals, but
at the time Of the purchase Of Alaska the
United States did not take the seals under
This statement by Sir Charles led to a
long discussion as to the correctness Of the
assertion. Baron de Courcel, president of
the council, American Arbitrators Harlan
and Morgan and Hon. 4. j. Phelps of
counsel for the United States took part i'm
the discussion and brought out various
points relating TO the purchase of Alask a.

the vast sums which foreign private ex-
hibitors have spent here, n compilation
just made by the managers Of the fair
shows that foreign governments appro-
p-iated more than 100000 for the pur-
poses OF this exposition. Inasmuch as the
grand total of expenditures in the whole
enterprise by the Chicago corporation, by
the national government, by the various
states and by foreign governments is lit
tie more than s33, 900, 900, it will be seen
that the foreign governments have fur
nished more than one-fifth of the entire
capital. This fact indicates more graphic
ally than any description can depict the
prominent part borne in this grand affair
by the people of Europe, Asia, Africa and
South America.
No more beautiful and interesting struc-
lures are TO be found m the grounds than
those erected by the chief European and
other nations. Seventeen nations in all
have their own buildings here, n few of
them serving to house the entire exhibit of
the country, but the most of them being
simply offices, with parlors for rendezvous
OF their countrymen and friends, and de-
signed as exponents of the architecture
and decorations typical of the lands
whence they came. All but one Of these
seventeen structures are massed together
In the northern part of the enclosure,
Great Britain, France and Germany and
Spain having the choice location, facing
the shores Of Lake Michigan. Hero as in
the main exhibition hall the Germans APP
pear TO be in the lead. At least their ma
tional house is more spectacular, the walls
being brilliantly ornamented with color,
and the gothic windows and peaks being
almost innumerable.
Nothing could exceed the beauty of this
part OF the exposition. There are winding
roads among the palaces, leafy walks and
blooming flowers. One is not surprised
that large throngs of visitors leave the
more sensational parts of the show and
come here TO study international architec-
ture and decoration and to rest from the
fatigues Of Sightseeing amid the confusion
