TRADE EXPOSITION
AT PHILADELPHIA.
The Only one of its Kind Ever
Held in This Country.

Philadelphia, Sept. 1.-The National
Export Exposition that is to be opened
at Philadelphia on the 14th of this
month is to be unlike anything that has
ever been held in this country, as it will
include a display of all articles manu-
factured solely in the United States.
1t is not to be money-making
scheme, nor a plan to boom a munich
pality, but viii be held solely for the
purpose of encouraging home manufac-
ture and developing the export trade
for American goods to countries where
they have not been adequately repre-
sented. That this plan will be success
full in it's effort to impress the world
with the superiority of our American
goods there can be little doubt AL
ready the German and French manu-
facturers are beginning to express fear
at this renewal of commercial interest
in the United States. They know that
competition abroad is already very
close and they feel that this Exposition
will prove to be a school to educate for
eigners to a still greater degree in the
matter of convincing them that Ameri-
can goods are often superior to those
manufactured on the Continent.
When such an opinion is held by bus
mess men abroad it is not strange that
those of this country should have seen
the advantage of such an exposition
and should have united with the PhiIa-
deIphia projectors to make the affair as
broad in character as possible.
The Exposition is the direct out
3
Museum. which has been working along
the same lines for several years. In
fact ever since the Colum bian Exposi-
ton it's exhibits of foreign goods have
been of the greatest advantage to
American manufacturers, for it has
enabled them to keep fully in touch
with the Improvements made in other
countries. The Exposition will be the
same system on an enlarged, beautified
and more attractive scale.
There will be a display of every line
of American manufactured products
which is in demand abroad or for which
a foreign market may be created;
while beside these goods will be seen
the products of other countries. In
this way the merchants and manufac-
turers of the United States will not
only have an opportunity to present
every country but they will also be
able to become acquainted with the
The Topeka state journal., 1899-09-14

manufactured articles of Europe as
Wei as with the requirements of the
foreign market without being compelled
to spend time and money for travel and
investigation.
For instance, the silk manufacturer
of the United States may familiarize
pet1tors in France and Japan are pro-
ducing. The hardware manufactures
may see what the German and English
makers are turning out for their foreign
trade. The print cloth makers of New
England may see at a glance just what
grade and design of goods are demand
ed by those who purchase from the
European manufacturers. In fact the
requirements of the whole world viii
be placed before the visitor and so clas-
sified that he will be able to make the
best possible use of the information
furnished.
The magnitude of such a scheme
must be seen to be realized, but both
Mr.. A. B. Widener, the President,
and DR.. William P. Wilson, the Direc-
tor General, are confident that the Ex-
position will be of the greatest advant-
age to the commercial interests of this
country.
It was at first a somewhat difficult
matter to persuade manufacturers of
the Importance of the project, but now
there is not sufficient space to accom-
modate those who desire to exhibit.
The industry best represented is that of
iron ana steel and this Will include the
most improved machinery, implements,
tools and labor-saving devices gener-
ally, all of which will be placed on view.
There will also be excellent exhibits of
dress goods, silks, cotton, wooden, linen
and other fabrics and. in fact, every
product that might possibly find a mar
ket abroad.
The department of foreign manufac-
tured goods, however, will be a distinct
innovation as compared to anything
that has ever been attempted in the ex-
position line in this country. 1t will
consist entirely of samples which have
been collected abroad by commissioners
of the Exposition, aided by the United
States consular service. These samples
have been purchased outright, and
there will be no exhibit made by foreign
firms or individuals. In other words,
the Exposition will be a close corpora
ton devised for American interests
only, and there is no doubt that Aneri-
can manufacturers and exporters viii
profit by this opportunity to study the
business conditions existing abroad.
The efforts of Mr.. Widener and the
business men who are assisting him
will not end with the Exposition, how
ever. 1t is not to be big fair to which
representa- from other countries
may or may not come as they please.
In order to interest these other nations
in the project the management organ
lied an international commercial con-
gress, the meetings of which will con-

quented by the nobility of the country,
who still regard him as King. he
receives a pension from the French
government, but is not allowed to VISIT
Paris for fear of exciting the RoyalIsts
and injuring the interests of the Re
public. The Prince, who is very good
looking, is much like his mother in dis
position, the gentle Princess Clotilde,
who is the sister of King Humbert of
Italy.
The royal families of France and
Italy are very closely related. All the
marriages of the Pretenders to the
French throne have been made in Italy,
and to-day the French royal family is
almost as much Italian as French.
Late last year it was announced,
though unof1cially, that Prince Ma
poleon Victor had little desire for the
throne, being too retiring in disposition;
and that he had renOunced all rights in
favor of his younger brother, Prince
Napoleon Louis, who is just thirty-five
years old, and a much more pronounced
King in manner, education and appear
ance. Louis was educated in the Rus
sian army and is an acknowledged sta
tistician; in spite of his long exile he
is French to the very heart, fact
which has not escaped the Royalists,
and, though not upon the throne, he
has insisted upon the ceremony and
homage due a Prince who might some
day be King This has also pleased his
people.
NUMEROUS CLAIMANTS.
There is a sister, the Princess Letitia,
who married an Italian Prince, and who
has a ten-year-old boy, Humbert, who
is in the line of succession, in case of
the death or withdrawal of his uncles,
Victor and Louis
Napoleon, the first and great, had an
other brother, Lucien, whose descend
ants are many; besides, there are nu-
merous male cousins, all of the Bona
parte family.
Thus, it is plainly shown, that should
the Toyalist party become strong in
France. it will have no lack of candi-
dates for the throne, all entitled to a
chance at the succession, if royalty be
regained.
The ex-Empress Eugene, considered
France, must not be forgotten, for it is
upon her that the Royalists rely for
English aid, her well-known friendship
this is another reason why the Royal

out from time to time. It seemed as if
it were only awaiting the fuel for
steady flame. And the fuel came, in
the Dreyfus case, when the Royahsts
decided that the army was right and
Dreyfus guilty of treason. That the
President and his party should decide
that Dreyfus was an abused man was
too much to bear. and they showed
their feelings openly. The last chapter
of the Dreyfus case has not yet been
written, and it is the prayer of the
Republican party in France that it may
not be written in blood.

lists are unusually active now; they
fear that, if the Queen dies there will
be no such support; for it is well known
that the Prince of Wales cherishes no
such love for Eugene as his mother
bears. Eugene herself is seventy three

1t does away also with the reports
that Germany was withholding the
appointment of her commissioner, and
makes practically certain that Baron
Speck Won Sternberg, first secretary
of the German embassy at Washing
ton, will be the German high commits
sioner.
In an authoritative quarter it was
stated that reports of German protest
against Admiral Kautz's course in ref
ference to the treatment of the cruiser
Fake were unwarranted. All the ne
gotiations, it is said in the highest
Gel man quarters, are of such q charac-
ter as to bring the governments more
closely together instead of separating
them.
AS it has been strongly intimated in
the Berlin dispatches that the German
government was about to make a de-
mand for disavowal of Admiral
kautz's action, it may be stated that
our government will certainly not ac-
cede to any such request in advance of
full knowledge of all the facts in the
case aud conviction that the admiral
acted wrongly, the presumption al
ways being that our officers have acted
with due propriety until the contrary
is shown to be the case.

the self-constituted king, with his
thirteen chiefs, dominating the affairs
of the island, involving the suspen,
sion of the functions of the supreme
court, and of the municipal council,

treaty, then it was his duty, accord.

AN EXPERT or FARM CONDITIONS.
Tie Says Farm Investment Paid Better ~
Years Ago Than To-Day.

The Industrial Commission gave
hearing recently In Washington on
farm conditions, the principal witness
being Assistant Secretary Bingham Of
the Agricultural Department. Mr..
Brigham said that he had been con.
nccted with the Grange movement
nearly twenty years, and rs master OF
the National Grange for nine years
had travelled over the country consid-
crably. The number of men employed
cn farms was about the same, he said,
Is fifty years ago. The tendency, how.
ever. was toward shorter hours and
lighter work, and in general the condk
ton and wages of the farm hands had
improved. This was largely due to the
use Of machinery and improved meth.
DDS, and not organization Of labor. The
system Of crop sharing, he said, was
increasing, and would, he thought,
largely supplant that Of hiring men for
wages.
MIR. Brigham favored the teaching Of
the elementary principles of agricult.
ure in the public schools, as arousing
the interest of The boys in that branch
would tend to keep them on the farm
and away from the cities. The money
invested in farms, farm implements
and stock in the United States repre-
scntcd, he said, about $1,000, 100000.
Farm investments paid higher rates Of
interest forty years ago than today.
Some reasons for the decrease were
the appreciation of land values and
higher wages for labor. The net profits
of farming, taking an average for the
whole country. he thought would not
exceed more than two or three per cent.
Farmers, lie said, paid too great pro.
portion of the taxes, one reason being
that their property could not be con-
ccalcu from the aSSScSSorS as can some
other classes of property.
