AD0LPHUs BUSCH SURPRISED

Brewer Inspects Exposition Grounds
After European Trip and Is
Much Pleased.

For the first time since his departure
for Europe, in the early summer, Adolph-
us Busch found opportunity, on franks
giving Day. to make tour Of inspection
Of the Worlds Fair.
Il had made so many promises con-
cerning the Exposition while abroad, .
said Mr.. Busch yesterday, and found
such widespread interest in Germany and
on the Continent generally concerning the
Fair. that 1 felt il incumbent upon me to
90 and see whether all these promises
and all these expectations We're TO be

Il am glad TO say that TIE magnificent

seems TO be little reason TO doubt that,
with continuance of ans thing like IA
voTable weather the Fair will be in ev-
cry way ahead of any exposition at The
time of the opening next spring.
The interest manifested in the Fair
abroad, continued Mr.. Busch. lis keen
and widespread. The people of Europe
have become convinced that the United
States is not only a wcrid Power among
The natlons, but that her material. firan-
cial and scientific development makes her
schoolhouse for men in every branch of
human activity.
For that reason every progressive man
wants TO see this wonderful display. With
all OUT space, however. we are sun III
need of room TO meet the demand that
European countries are making in their
clamor for representation at this world
wide exhibit. Germany and France are
striving to outdo any former display. and
the Governments and people are both
alive to the Importance of excellent repre-
scn.ations before the universal congress.
Il did not have an opportunity of meet
ing Prince Henry. but / feel sure that
the Kaiser will serd at least two of his
sons to represent him here. In fact |

will come. They may not care to come
in state. They like to see the world
as other men see it, and may come under
the narle Of one of their many lesser
titles. but they are pretty sure to come.
AS to the American business outlook

nothing further to fear. We have had
