A TEAPOT TEMPEST.
German Exhibitors Will Not Withdraw
From the Exposition.


Berlin, Sept. 13-The government or
gans have been quick to issue a warn
ing against the proposal to boycott the
Paris exposition
Germany has no occasion to take the
lead in this matter" says the Cologne
Gazette. She ought to leave this to
other states which, perhaps, would not
consider it undesirable that Germany
OF all powers should adopt a hostile at
titude towards France in this matter"
Geheimrath Lewald, a member of the
German exhibition, says:
What has the exposition to do with
politics? Its sole object is commercial
To withdraw is no easy matter Every
Industrial branch will be represented as
a group to which the individual manu-
facture contributes, The industrial
branches could therefore only withdraw
as a whole. There is not the slightest
symptom Of any inclination to adopt
that course. The greatest efforts are
putting forth in all quarters to make
the best possible showing.
I'VE have met with the friendliest
reception from the French management
Of the exhibition. I am convinced the
whole movement is only a tempest in
a teacup."
