Philadelphia, Sopt. 19. The first
three days of tho National Export ex
position have given the enterprise an
immense impetus. The fact that 30,000
persons visited tho grounds and build
ings on the day of the opening cere
monies and that they carried away
with them the most favorable impres
sions of the day has been highly grati
fying to the managers.
A combination of favorable circum
stances conspired to give eclat to the
inaugural exercises. The day was
beautiful and bracing, the great Audi
torium proved to be equal to all expec
tations, and the spectators who as
sembled in it were more than cordial;
they were enthusiastic.
The hall and its audience wns a re
minder of some of our great national
political conventions, particularly. It
has been remarked, of that memorable
ono held in Chicago 15 years ago which
nominated Blaine In the Exposition
Hall in Chicago, but in many respects
It was much more strlklnz. While
the decorations of the hall were of tho
simplest character, the greut audience
itself gave plunty of color to tho scene.
Some one remarked, "There are many
women here and a Bprlnklnc of men."
As a matter of fact, the audience was
composed of about an equal number of
each sex, aud It was this circumstance
which enlivened the scene and lent to
it a delightful charm of color shading.
The proceedings were interesting
throuRhout, and the music was sup
erb. The personal participation of tho
president by telegraph, from his desk
In the White House, gave complete
ness to the event.
Since the openlnz the attendance
has bean more satisfactory than was
anticipated, all of the circumstances
considered. Falling from 23,000 to
about 9,000 on Friday, it Increased to
15,000 on Saturday. This shows a
healthy Interest at the very beginning
of the exposition, and Indicate a
large enout'h Interest in tho future to
meet the hopes of tho most saugulne
friends of the exposition.
Visitors have been surprised at the
number and Interesting rhnrncter of
the exhibits, notwithstanding the as
tonishingly brief time In which they
have been arranged. The magnitude
of the buildings and the economy and
wisdom with which the space has
been utilized has also been a matter
of remark. For Instance, In the Main
building there Is a length of main
aisles of over 11,000 feet and a length
in tho cross aisles of 14,000 feet, so that
one who has welked through all of tho
aisles of the Main building will have
completed a Journey of about five
miles. In tho other buildings of the
nxposltlon there are more than four
miles of aisles, and thus to obtain even
a glimpse of everything in the expo
sition grounds the visitor must walk
nearly tea miles. As all of these aisles
are lined with a succession of all that
Is best and most Interesting In Ameri
can manufactures, from those of the
most trlflnir character to thoso of th
greatest magnitude and Importance,
some Idea of what an Interesting col
lection in both variety and character
Is to be irleaned from these figures.
Tho exuosttlon Is proving to bo a pop
ular one in the limited sense of that
expression. It has proved Interesting
to the merely curious, thoso who give
but a passing thought to what they
ree. as well as to thoe who peek Infor
mation and Instruction. This i wa
somewhat strikingly Bhown In the
vastly different visitors to the exposi
tion durlnii the week, the one a ady
looking for a patontod noodle In a jew
ing machine, the other nn official vis
itor from Japan hunting for a pr.lace
for tho emperor, which he desires to
build at Toklo. This statement should
n''t bo regarded as a forced compari
son. The Japanese commissioner Is a
real personage, and he Is an' archi
tect now la this country arranging for
the construction of a stool 'skeleton
framework for the Imperial f.tructuro.
which Is to be an earthquake proof
building, and Is not the first of its
kind to be erected In that country, but
will be t'-e first to be constructed of
American steel. Such incidents go far
to show the linporttr.es and value of
tUo exposition, .
