BERLIN, Nov. 27.-The Rheinisch-

Essen, which is commonly described as
the organ of the manufacturers Of that
city and vicinity, is much disturbed
over the American exposition which is
to be held In Berlin next summer.
In its issue today the paper attacks
the plan as likely to injure German
trade by affording Americans an op-
portunity to show the excellence of
their manufactures.
1t appears to fear the effect of a
contrast between German and Ameri-
can wares and alludes to Prince Henry
of Prussia as an agent for American
trade because the prince is a patron
of the exposition and chairman of the
