WAGON FACTORY IN CHEMNITz
Consul J. F. Monaghan, writing
from Chemnitz, Germany, says:
A company has been organized
in this city, with a capital OF s3,-
$4,000, to build wagons, carri-
ages, &c. Consuls have often
called attention to the opportuni-
ties offered in this empire and all
over Europe, for the sale Of Amer
ican wagons, carriages, and vehi-
cles OF all kinds. The success
achieved at home is a guaranty
that our products, if properly
pushed, would find ready and prot.
table sales abroad. The roads
here are remarkably even. The
wear and tear, so heavy in parts Of
our country, have been minimized,
If not entirely eliminated. This
factory will furnish a great oppor-
tunitY to our manufacturers Of
wagon and carriage tools and
machines; also to makers Of wood
working tools and machines. In,
these lines, we are said to excel.
II catalogues containing price lists
are sent to this consulate, care will
be taken to see that they are PROP
erlY distributed. The catalogues
should, if possible, be printed in
German; luckily, this is not abso-
lutely necessary, as most mer-
chants and manufacturers here
read English. Before the factory
is finished, before il can turn off a
single wagon or carriage, our man
uiacturers or agents ought to make
a supreme effort to effect sales OF
vehicles here.

surprise some Of our iron manu-
facturers TO learn that, among
other articles, printing presses and
machinery have been exported
from this district to the island Of
Porto Rico during the past year.
Printing presses and machinery OF
American manufacture are con-
ceded to be the best in the world,
and vet through the agency Of eff
cient and wideawake statesmen.
machinery manufactured in this
district has been sold in quantities
in the above mentioned island.
The machinery manufacturers
of the United States should see
that their products are brought to
the attention and consideration Of
those who have need for such arsi.
cles. even in a place where the
market is somewhat limited, like
Porto Rico.
The sue sessful introduction OF
one product Of American make
into a foreign section or new coun-
try facilitates the sale ot other
articles OF the same origin. In this
manner the importation OF Ameri-
can machinery into a new section
would lead to the importation oil
American machine tools, and
machine tools would lead to the
impc rtation Of lubricating oils,
lubricating oils to petroleum and
fuel, and so.

ARSENIC IN GERMAN FABRICS. -
According to report from Consul
Hughes, of Coburg, dated april S,
1900, a contention has risen be
tween German exporters and the
Swedish Government, the latter
asserting that there are traces of
arsenic in textile materials expor-
ted from Germany, such as carpets,
wall papers, furniture covers, toys,
etc. The German manufacturers
claim that this is not so. In one
way, says Mr.. Hughes, this will be
a strictly chemical fight as the
Swedish officials will say that
their examin atoms were properly
made, and tine Germans will insist
that II arsenic was found, it was
due to the use by the Swedish
chemists Of impure chemicals in
making the tests.

ADVERTISING AMERICAN ExHIB
ITS AT PARIS The following has
been received from Consul Gem
eral Dubois, OF st. Gall
If American firms having exhib-
its at Paris would send to the con-
sular officers a few neatly printed
cards, mentioning the character OF
their exhibits and extending a cor
dial invitation to the bearer to eX-
anime them while visiting the ex-
position, 1 am quite sure that all
consular officers OF the United
States would see that these cards
are placed in the hands of mer-
chants residing in their districts
who are likely to be interested in
the EXHIBITS to which they relate,
and who will desire to examine
them should they visit the exposi-
ton. One large shoe dealer said
to me recently;
81 am going to Paris to examine
the American shoe exhibit, to see
If can make arrangements with
some good hrm to ship shoes to
witzerland. Do you know what
firms are to exhibit"
This same spirit Of inquiry can
be found among the Swiss dealers
in hardware ,bicy cles, automobiles,
foodstufi (such as ham, bacon,
dried fruits, potted meats, canned
fruit), agricultural machinery,
Photographic supplies, office fur
niture, and many other articles
that can be imported into this
country with success.

THE PARIS EXHIBITIoN.-Allth the
ingenuity OF man has be, n brought
into play to provide attractions
that are 70 outdo in grandeur all
that has zone before. The exhi-
bition grounds cover an immense
area-the Champ de Mars, the
Esplanade des Invalides and the
Trocadero, a portion Of the north
bank Of the Seine as far as the
Champs Elysees and the Palace
de la Concorde.
The Palace OF Horticulture in
the American section is a superb
design; the United States National
Pavilion is another. England,
Spain, Switzerland, and other ma
tions are endeavoring to outvie
each other to make their particu-
lar section most attractive. Ex-
hibits will not alone be offered the
visitor; amusements are to be in
Vulnerable. One OF the chief
spectacles promised is the Moor
ish ADdalusia, with tournament
as in the days Of yore. A thought
ful man will behold enough won
ders to give him food for reflection
for many a day. Here may be
seen, as it were, a panorama Of the
past, up to the present go ahead
age. The ancient metho DDS Of ftrav-
ellinP will run side by side with
the marVels Of up to date loco
motion. At the park Of Vincen-
mes, which is some distance from
the main grounds, and may be
reached by all kinds OF vehicles, is
the automobile exhibits. aud races
with them are a special feature.
The marks OF the century (which
have cost the French nation some
thing like a million sterling) COM

erected on the Avenue Nicholas

THE COMING TOTAL ECLIPSE OF
THE SUN.-The circumstance that
renders the coming total eclipse Of
the sun, on May a8, 1900, Of special
significance to thousands OF people
who might otherwise entirely over
look the occasion, says Prot. +. II.
Bigelow, in AbbktoN's Popular
Science Monthly for May, is the fact
that the path of the moons shadow
over the surface OF the earth, or
the track Of the eclipse, is in such
a convenient locality-namely, in
our Southern States--as to render
the places OF visibility easily ac-
cessible. Instead OF being obliged
to go to the ends OF the earth, at
heavy expenditure OF time and
money, all the while running the
risk Of not seeing the eclipsed sun
on account Of prevailing cloudi-
ness, we are fortunate this time to
have the show at home in our own
country. While many foreigners
will be induced to come to the
United States for observations, it's
certain that more people will! be
