[ American Commissioner General At the PARIS
Exposition.
tl1s presidential party in its passage
through the grounds The finishing
touches were hastily given the mARnif-
cent Sale des Fetes The aspect Of the
exposition has materially improved from
even that of yesterday, and although
the installation Of exhibits has naturally
undergone little advance the external
effect produced by the incessant labor Of
the past couple Of days Is already fine
and decidedly picturesque.
The unfinished condition Of the expo
position on Inauguration day is regret
able and perhaps misleading.
Ambassador Porter Talks.
General HOrsce Porter, the American
ambassador, after the inaugural cere-
mOny, in an interview said:
1.-The present French exposition will
attract even greater interest than any
previous effort made in Paris to display
before the world the products Of the va
rious nations. Every government Of
any Importance Is represented and in the
way of sight seeing and the gathering Of
general information visit 10 1t will be
equal to making a tour of the world.

public spirit early manifested by Presi-
dent Mckinley regarding this enterprise
and TO the lberality Of congress in pro-
viding means for organizing a Credita-
BILE and attactive American section, our
country has secured a representation
which will arouse universal interest.
The increase in our commerce with
Europe which will result from a sys-
tematio and extensive display of pro-
ducts will without doubt enlarge our
foreign connections and will repay the
country many times for the wise ex-
penditureS authorized by the govern
mept. The friendly intercourse which
%1ll take place between prominent and
influential people from all lands will do
much, it is trusted, TO bring about better
understandings between the countries
and foster that good will which is so
necessary among nations i'll securing an
era Of harmony and peace.
United States Commission General
Ferdinand W. Peck said:
The exhibits Of the great Intcrna-
tiOnal exposition inaugurBted today re-
flect that the great arts, sciences and in
dustries Of the present age will be- an
achievement of heretofore unequdllrd
perfection. At no other similar event
