TARIFF MAKES

British Artists VIII Exhibit Freely.
but Manufacturers Hold Back,
for Fear of Imitation.

New York. May n.-"Apprehension that
American manufacturers will copy the new
ideas in British exhibits of industries and
machinery al the St. Louis Exposition. and
then, by the aid Of the tariff. undersell
them in America may prevent the British
Industrial exhibit at St Louis from being
as liberal as expected says Colonel Wat
son, secretary of the British Commission to
the ST. Louis Exposition. who arrived on
the lvernia to-day on his way TO ST. Louis.
he Said:
Il cannot say very much about our ex-
hibit to St. Louis. The reason is because
of your high tariff. There is disposition
to mold back. and 1t is not only so in my
country. but in Germany and France. Our
art exhibit will be exceptionally fine. and
the same can be said Of our educational ex-
hibit, but our Industrial and machinery
show may not be SO excellent. We are
afraid of your tariff. You gee. we may
show some things that are really good and
they may be copied. Now. If this was the
case. the manufacturer on our side could
not bring his goods in. owing to the tariff,
and compete with the copy in your market
What is needed is the passage of some
special law. like a copyright. which will af-
ford protection TO those bringing articles
over for exhibition
His visit here would be brief he said,
