Speda! VTorld's Fair Letter.l
When Chief Willard A. Smith, of the
transportation exhibits department,
w as asked the other day what were '.he
most significant displays in hissectiou.
he ansuered without hesitation: "The
compound locomotives, the Campania
and the vestibuled trains." One might
take exception to the brevity and com
paratively limited scope of the declar
ation, but if he Btudies the subject and
its bearing' on the future of transporta
tion, he will understand that the chief
meant to summarize the epoch-making-features
of his denartment.
The 6iiowing-undcr thr. polychromat
ic buildkif at Jackson park is the first
attempt to put transportation on the
plane of other (Treat exhibits at an in
ternational exhibition. That the sep
aration of the exhibits from other de
partmental classification was wise is
demonstrated by the really wonderful
collection fathered there from every
tjuarter of the plobe. It w as to have
been expected that the railways of
America would do their utmost to dis
play their methods of operation and
the special features of equipment that
make travel by particular lines desira
ble. But it li a matter for surprise
that the uttermost parts of the earth
should have contributed specimens of
sa-val architecture, vehicles of all sorts
and queer devices which play an im
portant part in the carrying and pas
senger traffic of their countries.
The department of transportation,
as outlined in the system of classifica
tion, embraces illustrations of every
possible method of travel nnrt traffic
known to man from primitive times
down (o the present, as well as the
auxiliary vessels and implements of
naval and coast warfare. Surveying
the exhibit as a whole, one is struck at

once with the progress made by differ
ent nations in specific lines of manu
facture and invention.
Great Britain, for instance J4iows her
immense superiority in commerce and
naval warfare by models of her gTcat
warships and fa.st merchant vessels.
The display embraces one feature of
melancholy interest which is constantly
surrounded by curious spectators. 1 his
is the large model of the "Victoria,"
whose destruction off Tunis is stiil
fresh enough in the minds of the visit
ing public to draw them to the com
panion stairway near" the main en
trance of the building where the model
stand. A companion model tells a
more pleasant btory of peaceful tri
umph. It is the mi Kiel of the "Cam
pania, bearing" on ita case a tele
graphic message announcing the fact
that the vessel had broken the record
of fast voyages and marked a new de
parture in ocean travel.
Jn this same liue and marking aa
era in American naval structure is the
full-sized section of an Interactional
liner one of the first fleet to fiy the
American flag under the new admiral
ty laws of the country. This section
is fitted np to show the exact dimen
sions and fittings of the new line
steamers from keel to bridge.
When it comes to railway exhibits
the patriotic enthusiast may afford to
make comparisons. The great systems
of this country have installed complete

the most luxurious equipment. One
of the most interesting studies of the
whole section is afforded by the two
trains one English, the other typical
ly American standing- side by side on
adjoining tracks Of course the con
servative English vis-tor clinvs to the
idea that his own train is the ideal
pattern and the ardent American is
just as sure he has found the bct forei
of transportation for the public. It
may be noted, however, that the Eng
lish train on exhibition shows a tend
dency toward the adoption of the
more modern method in that it follows
the Pullman idea in a modified way
and furnishes its passengers the choice
of sleeping- compartments fitted np for
rcnmfortable living and sleeping'.
Turning to the historical exhibits, it
is worth noting- the vast difference
lietween the railway equipment of
less than half a century ag-o and the
magnificent machinery in use on all
4 he great roads of to-day. One of the
systems shows the first train run over
what -as then considered a model
track. The locomotive looks like a
monster kettle set np behind a smoke
ttaek that would hardly answer for
pood-sized kitchen range in a roxler
hotel. The coaches are smaller than a
ity omnibus; the wheels would scarce
ly sustain a truck such as is used by
any big wholesale grocer; the drivers
jire alrao.st liliputian in their dearth of
fBetal: and the whole train would not
weigfi as much as a dummy coach on
an elevated road.
Alongside this relic of early days is
on express train with ita monster com
pound locomotive, its yestibuled sleep
ers its paper-tired wheels and its lux
urious provision for the comfort of
travelers. Comparing the two, one can
readily understand what the chief
meant when be said the sleeping car
and the compound locomotive were
among the biggest things in Lis de
partment. ' To his mind they foreshadow the day
of great things in railroad travel when
ninety miles an hour will cease to bo
regarded with surprise, and when New
York and Chicago will be within half
the distance of each other they were a
decade ago.
Of course, the air-brake plays an in
portaut part in the exhibit, and sug
gests the part it has taken in the devel
opment of fast schedules in train serv
ice the world over. Every brake of
any value is on exhibition, the whole
forming1 a comprehensive demonstra
tion of that part of railroad economy,
and showing the public the practical
work-in ot what Is a mystery to most
lavm.ri.

The 6tudent is impressed with the
value of the bicycle in modern social
economy, both ns a means of recrea
tion and us an adjunct to bu-iness op
eration in city and country. Indeed, it
t.oiild not be cxa-.'craliou to say that
the hpinnintf, whirling- ajrjjTep'ation tin
the g-allcry represents one of the creat
improvements in modern transporta
tion methods and points the way to a
still better means of utilizing" hnman
pinscle and skill in the execution tif
rapid movements. Incidentally, by
photographs and models, the use of
the bicycle in war maneuvers is shown
and its adaptability in field service is
emphasized.
Uhcse arc the important phases of a
phenomenally fine departmental dis
play. The casual observer who cares
more for diversion than instruction
will find what he enjoys most in the
queer craft from Alaska, the South
Sea islands Australia, Ceylon, China,
Japan. India, Africa and South Amer
ica. These collections show a diver
sity of boats and boatinjr methods as
varied and full of suggestive informa
tion as an encyclopedia of nautical
lore. There are catamarans from half
a dozen countries all following the out
rigger idea of protection from upsets
and all depending largely on solid
logs duff out for the hull of the craft.
Then there are the rafts of South
America on which the fisherman or
sailor ri?s his sails and then proceeds
to pt-1 out of the wet by sitting in a
chair arrangement clear of the deck or
attached to the mast. There are junks
from China and canoes from Samoa;
kvahs from Alaska and tla' abecyahs
from the Nile. The North American
Indian's canoe and the East Indian's
fishinr craft arc shown side by side,
ca -h showing the craft of a ciri'.iza-
tion that knew how to meet its own
necessities as admirably as the most
