PLACING AN AMERICAN SHOW TN PARIS.

There are a few houses there which
were built before. the zone was declared
and they are allowed to stand. But since
the day the land was set aside for mill
fary purposes, it is not possible to OBJ
tain permission to construct anything
higher than six feet on this land. On ac-
count of this military law the land had
relatively but little value and was
chiefly occupied by small agricul-1ursrs
in the cultivation of garden stuff, end
who live in little dog kennels Ct houses
which never rise above the gwen
height, for if they did, they would be
instantly torn down by the military
authorities.

cans who were doing their best to con-
tribute to the success of this exposition
period.
1t was through his kind offices alone
thai the permission was finally given,
and then his permission to erect a
grand stand was only conceded when
a bonded assurance was given that this
grand stand should be pulled down
within twenty-four hours notice if the
military authorities demanded.
SMALL TENANTS WHO ARE MOD
ELS OF CAUTION.
While this was removed, the one great
obstacle, the difficulties We're by no
means overcome. Small agriculturists
had to be. every one of them, dispos-
sessed. The leases were accomplished
for comparatively moderate sums in the
early history of this enterprise, but to-
ward the last the news leaked out
through some war department clerk
and the prices demanded for the rent
of the land was large enough to consti-
tute absolute blackmail.
In these days 1 Travelled about with
a French home d'affairs, who drew
contracts instantly following verbal
agreements, and we always paid, over
the money and took receipts, and in
this way avoided many a nice quarrel.
Checks were almost unknown in the
transaction Of business in France, and
it was necessary to go about with a
comparatively large sum of money in
making these leases. The small lease
holders could not resist the sight of
cash down, and many a dispute was
settled by the mere sight of the price
offered in the form OF crisp notes on
the bank funds. The leases which were
made We're miracles of caution and
care. was obliged to give bonds to re-

ious cry meant Give Us our money
back" When the mob had gotten well
together and at the very apex Of it's
fury of its demonstration there came
out of the dark a compact line OF
French soldiers with sturdy French
sergeant at their head, who simply
said: Get out, scum of the earth"
Then the bayonets fell just behind
them with great precision as the sold
iers advanced sharply. The rioters fed
without protest, and that was the last
ever heard of La Galette,' because
Paris now understood that this enter
prise was under the protection of the
military authorities, and so except
from the ravages of tax and bill col
1ectors it was very well protected.
MORE TROUBLE WITH THE
SMALL TENANTS.
There was trouble throughout, how
ever. with the local tenants from
whom we had sublet They went into
perfect ecstacies of agony every time
they saw the money piliug up in front
of the door because they had not asked
more money for their wretched little
leases. and sought by every possible
means to thrust their hands into our
treasury. They We're very ingenious
in deviSing means TO this end. They
would keep coming up constantly and
insist upon our giving various kinds Of
bonds to guarantee that We would re-
store their land to the same condition
that it was before it was leased to US
for ten times it's value.
It was bitter enough to have to pay
all these things when there was an en-
tirely good revenue at the gate, but
when the show was over then there
was a dreary day of reckoning with
the lease holders. Official committees
came on TO the land and with Ions di-
vining rods of steel went about meas
uring the exact depth of the soil, and
where there was any change it had TO
be made good before a signature OF
satisfaction could be received. Every
atom of dirt displaced by the making
of d path had to be returned 10 it's
natural place, and where the depth
was made less by the packing down by
the feet of visitors the original depth
had to be made good, and before [
finally escaped from the clutches OF
my French friends I was obliged to
disburse upwards OF 10000 francs more
after the display was over and the ex-
hibitiOn had come to an end.
Nothing but the closest kind of bust
ness care and the crowds of the expo
sition year saved the enterprise from
a financial wreck and gave it a modern
success. 1t is possible to do business
successfully in France. but one must
first learn thoroughly their way of do
ms. No verbal agreement is worth
anything. Everything must be in
black and white and every possible
contingency foreseen in the original
agreement drawn. no foreigner can
expect to do any business in France
successfully unless he knows the Ian
guage thoroughly and can understand
every form Of commercial dialect. If
he has to depend upon an interpreter
ne is a lost man from the start
French people are the most successful
in business in the world. They can
always be made to hold to their agree
ments when once they are officially re-
corded. but where there is any margin
left for possible hberality Of construc-
ton in these agreements the foreigner
will always he the victim on FRENCH
soil.

I gave to the representatives of these
papers upon the arrival of the show
off the coast of France. I attached no
particular Importance to it at the time,
but the effect of this most ordinary
form of American advertising created a
profound sensation in Paris, and I re-
ceived from it a larger return than
from any other form of advertising en-
ployed. I sent out invitations to the
representatives of the leading news
papers, that is those with whom we
had contracts, to go dsaHn with me to
Havre to meet tie Pstiian Monarch
upon its arrival. Twenty French jour-
nalists accepted the invitation, and it
was the first time any of them had
been invited to take any such trip, so
the very best men were sent out. I en-
gagged two cars for their comfort, or
dered a lunch with two cases of wine
and boxes of cigars for the journey.
These preparations were very modest,

In 1889 I went to Paris as the presi-
dent of a syndicate, formed for the pur-
pose of giving an American show,
known as ''The Wild West" in the city
of Paris during the Exposition year. If
the difficulties encountered had been
even partially foreseen, 1T is very doubt
full whether the attempt to give this
SHOW in Paris then or at any other time
would have been made.

AMERICAN COTTON

AT LIVERPOOL IN FAVOR OF BUYERs-THN
 eUARDIAN's COMMERCIAL ARTICLE.
 MANCHESTER, Nov. 7.-The Guardian in it's commercial article says: During the week there has occasionally been fair ina quiry, but buyers have generally been cautious. The offers have been at low figures and transactions have been moder. ate, being confined to actual requirements. The tendency of American cotton at Liver- pool Is in buyers favor, and this has in- duced sellers to entertain offers which they had previously refused to consider. Little business was done for China, but few lots of shirtings and lighb bleaching fabrics were placed for Calcutta, and some staples for Madrid. The Bombay demand was quiet. South American and minor foreign markets purchased moderately. The ten- dency of yarns was against sellers, but there was fair number of transactions where concessions were made.
