. THIS CHICAGO DAILY VIENNA. A Review of the International Ex- position-~-Its Dark and Bright Sides. TInoapacity and Negligenco of the Jury on Awards. Finaneial Failuro of 1he Great Skow--- A Deficit of $6,000,000, Little Pecuniary Benefit Reaped by American Exhibitors. Celebrities Among the Visitors: pletion of the New Vienna ‘Water~Worka, Speetal Correapondence of The Clideago Tridune, Vizsxa, Oct. 24, 1873, # Promises ara onsior made than kopt." When, during last spring, I hastily promised to con- tinue giving you detailod doseriptions of articlos oxposed in tho Vienna World's Fair, I littlo droamod then that physicsl disability would pro- wvont tha fulfillment of my promise, Thoro ls, lowover, ono consolation loft to mo in this in- voluntary pauso, and that is, I was spared from saying and writing about & great many things ‘which, while the show was going on, w loft uneaid, if for no other roagon than for tho _lionor of tho Amorican namo. Now, 88 I am again ablo to resume tho pen which for montha I was unablo to wield, I propose to give you of the great battle that has been fought in tho interost of tho world's industry. A fow days morg, and tho Vienne World’s Fair will® soon gmoko of batile cloaringawey. The Internation- ol Jury, whoso hap-hazard awards havo caused many & heartburning within the breasts of ox- bibitors, have algo gono, taking "with them tho bappy consclousness of not only having diligent- tly fulfilled their mission, but of havivg over- @one many a thing that eamo within tho scopo of their judiclaldecision; forhiave theynot voted fwards to many who, beforo tho openiug of the Exvosition, had tho best infoution of oxhiblting, bk, for somo roason or other, had failed do- uig'so ? But you will ask, How can a porson who does not exhibit receive o medal of merit ? T whil suswer, that, with s wise'jury, =~ - EVERYTHING 18 POYSIDLE. Thay have simply to tako the first published list of entored goods, and from thai pick out thoao which thuy think ouglit to have awards ; forliow lappenod othorwise that some did rot ‘Thavo roooived modals of Progress and lorit, while & well-kuown menufacturer, who lhad on exhilution improved apparatus for Lrowing beer, recoivod tho modal of merit for his “‘epirit-still”? I could cite a great many moro liko instauces where the jury showed thoir UTTER INCAPACITY AND REGLIGENCE, but I will cover their imbecility with tho mantlo of forgotfulucsa. Doforo dismiesing this sub- joot, bowever, I will stato, in justico to the fow American oxbibitors, that, thoso who, advertisements at “roceivad the only, highost, or Airat priza ot the Vienua Expogition,” mislead tho Amorican pub- lie. There were no first or second prizes. Thero Wore medals of Merit and Progrces, and 0 lib- orally and promiscuously woro thess distributod cuscssion of “oither of them lost its . Diplomus of Ionor were awarded, not to articles osbibited, but simply to porsons, au- sociations, Statos, and Governmouta, I am amused at tho advertisements of seyoral American sowing-machines, all claiming to have recoived ' T'uo only first prize, is, that neavly all wero Lreate: one may boast of a medal of Progress or Merit. But lot us tako now A RETRCSPECTIVE VIEW. of what Lias beon accomplishied by thia of all Expositions, and carofully weigh tho proa- ont as well u8 tho future benofits resulting thero- from to tho industrisl world, and more espo- cially to Austyin, A MOST DARING UNDERTARING it was on the part of Austrin, that had hardly ro- covered from its lato dissstrous wars, with an natiopal debt on its shouldors, teving to emorgo from tho dark of TFeudalism, anda to conciliate with single articlo omo, say thal t " whereas tho fact d alike, and_each world to & competing {irinl of strongtl and excoltenca. polvos, with the exception of Baron Bcherarz, ‘who nover for a moment doubted the succesfil carryiog out of his grand schome, bolleved in and predicted disasirous failure. If only immo- diate finaucisl results are to bo taken into con- sidoration, then, indoed, may tho Austrion tax- payors look with dismay at the figures that pro- sont themselvos Lo-day befors their eyes, for, ot the close of tho Exposition, thevo will bo s do- ficit of not Jess than . IWELVE MILLION FLORINS, & sum whicl, 1 dare ay, will be no light feather on the already overburdened backs g "fhoy muny, however, bo thankful that it is no worse, for tho expenditures wero made g0 lavish and contrary to ail practical pur- oses, that & much lorgor deficit might bhave oen expected ; g0 that the proverbial Austrian good luck in tho midst of its greatest misfor- tunes did not, even in thia case, prove recreant. The whole expenditures of tho Exposition amount to about 15,00 500,000. The recoipts w upin tho neighborhood of about 8,000,000 of fioring. To whow you the impracticability of the plan on which the whole Exposition was projectod and roated, I will atate tuat from all the bulldings, that have cost over 10,000,000 of floring, only sbout 1,000,000 can bo realized from the sale of them, THE BOTUNDA— that chof d'oouvro of modern architecture, which, togathor with tho Industrial Paluco, cost nearly 7,000,000—is _to remain for futuro nges, a8 the only Isndmarks of the past glotics of the Exposition, Its mission will be & noblo ono, unsurpassed ovon by tho Egyptisn Pyramids ; but, commeroially considored, od thoraln will prove s not only never be ablo to throw off any divi- donds, but will from timo to time requiro frosh funds wherowith o0 keep up ropairs.) As s great national monument to Austrisn entorprise, however, it may stand without ro- of oxtravagauco on the Bat whht of the othor ndustrial Palace, built to slund centuties iu- stead of months, at Lhe cost of millions, will soou be razed {0 tho will be sbarod by the ‘The Austrians thom- 0,000 of florin, Il, at tho cloo, fook tho millions in- dond loss, for it will art of ita pro- Tho samo fato vt Gallories, that woro reared at the cost of over 1,000,000. To be concise, lot me toll you that, after the closo of the Xxpo- 0,000 sworth of buildinga will be do- Now, I nsk yon, docu this give evis denca of common sonso and practical economy ? Tut this disproportionato outlny on buildings and grounds was not coufined solaly to the gon- oral dircction of the Exposition; but privato fn- dividusls, such sa manufacturers, restourant koopars, foreign Princos, Statos tuotr pavilions and buildings con- LAVISHLY-EXPENSIVE ETYLE. ‘The only excoptiou to this rule was the ever- practical Gorman and British Govornmenty, which ocontented thomselvas with the erection of wood- on buildings for tho use of the required oxtra I ‘would have included the Amorican Govornmant, had its Commissioners not gone to tho oxponso of erecting an additional wooden shod, at tho enormous cost of 15,000 flaring, be- foro oven havingstnff enough to #ill the tran- wopta ausigned (0 it by the general manugement. As Lo foreign manufacturors and inventors, os- pecially Americans, who flooked lero with tho oxpoctation of renlizing largo enlo of thoir articles and inventious, they, too, Luvo boen, almost without excoption, - BADLY DIBAPPOINTED, A few machines, orgave, &c, were sold, but I dure sny not more than enough to cover the nocossury oxpeneos nud loss of time, To my kuowledge, not a single American luvention has fouud, during the Exposition, & boua fide buyer, Our boot and shoo-making maohinory was rofits {rom tho was wondorad ot by erowdu of visitors ; Musou & uns wore listoned to by tho musical- Iy-inclined; Singor's, Wheeler & Wilson's, und other American dowing-maclines wore sing for tho edi alier A, Wood, MoCormiok, Johuston, and itieation of the multitude, Murah barvester reapiug-machinos wore wuch Jauded by the farming vortion of tho visiting publio; but the financinl bouofita dorived by ultlm{ ml- ul:nnf ltlm |\hmnsd mimll;‘“oflmtd woro but vory ineignificant comparod with! whint was justl expeoted from n World's Fair, dualy TUE RESTAURANTB AND TIOTRES, Foremost amoug all those who did 1ot roalize their oxpoctations aro the foreign rostaurant- keopors within tho Exposition grounds, and the Vienna hotel-keopers, The former, eoapecially the English and Amerlean rostaurants, wore compelied, months ago, to take down thelr for- olgn shinglon and turn thom into rogular Vienna beor-halls; while the lattor,—I mean the hotel« keepers,—nnd I may ndd also tho mor- chinnty Lave mot ovon half-roalized thelr Exposition droamns, Tho lnst tivo months, Beptembor and Octobor, during which the daily averago attondanco at the Exposition was aboub 40,000, saved them from total bankruptoy, Vienua had expectod iho influx of strangors to be so largo, during tho whole six months of tho Ex- osition, that 1t mado preparations to lodgo and ood 100,000 daily visitors within fta bordors. Thus the plothora of goods, wines, oto,, acquired for thnt._purposo, has to bo pot, Fid of at_gront sucriflces. Motels and Hotols - Garni, built ox- ressly for tho oceasion, are being turned into welling-houres and offices. From tho nbove, it will readily appear that finanoially, and as far as fmmedinte rcaults are concorned, tho Vienna Exposition has proved, both to tho Govornmont and to the majority of participators, o MOST BTUPENDOUS FAILURE, ‘This 18 the darl sido of the picture. Now lot us tury to its bright sido, and sco in what ro- spect tho Exposition waa n succoss. As s col~ leotivo show of tho world's industry, it mny be fairly nsgorted that the Vienua Exposition nover Iind its oqual, nor will it be oasy for suocasding onos in elther hemisphoro to surpass it in mag. nitndo, variety, fuluess, and immonsity. Lho diverso products of the whole world wore latd ‘bare within its luclosures in such vast quantitios o8 to fill tho wondbring visitor with admiration and awe for human genius that could pro- duco ol thoes things, ‘I'ho lion's sharo of space within the Exposl- tion, as you aro aware, was ocoupted by AUSTRIA, and, notwithstanding tho groat peouniary lons which sho has to sustain in this intornationsl coutost, sho may woll bo proud of tha honors which, through the display of spacimons of hor oxtensive rosources and diversified industrial brauches, tho bas dosorvedly oarned. Sho gavo ovidenco of vitality thab _surprisod oven thoso who belioved” thomsolves fully familiar with Austro-Hungarisn industry, It is not my intention to enumorato individual oases in which Austro-Hungarian orticles of mauufac- turo, raw matorials, products of tho soil, and ob- joots of art, have achioved groat victorios ovor their compatitora; but I must montion the fact that samplos of tho minoral wealth of Hungary, the Austrian glass industry, st woll pa thic lonther goods industry, constituted one of the most at- tractivo featuros of tho Industrial Palaco and Rotunds. Itisnotmy province either to oxtol at this lato day tho products and articles ox- Dibitad by TNITED GERMANY, which in extent stood noxt to Austris, although in quality Bome of her articlos wero surpnssed by none.. Tako, for iustance, the colloctivo ox- hibitlon of hor roprosentativo manufacturer, Krupp, with his monuter gun, which, togothor with ite carringe, weighs no less than 40,620 pounds, and his sanplo-piaco of cast steel, weighing 105,000 pounds, and you will form an iden of tho advanced stato of German industry. OTIER COUNTRIES, To France belongs tho next placo of honor. This alastio country, notwithstanding its lato ro- vorsos and prosont unsottled condition, mado tho best show with Lier silks, unmatohed porce- lmns, Bpecimons of biidga-building, turbinc- wheols, \nfiestry. wines, and bronze wares, Ln- wlond did horeelf crodif with hor fine display of toxtilo goods, maclumory, eto, Bolgium and Bwitzorlund showed the greatest progress in spinning and weaving machinery. Italy won tho Inurels for fluo arts, and ber grand 1eplng of most oxcellent statuary. Yes, oven Bpain, Rus- uia, Chins, and Japan—thcse countrica whenco vory littlo ‘was expected—covorod themsolves with glory for fino displays of their respeotive products, All, BAVE THE UNITED BTATES, camo up to tho mark. Itis hnrd to confees it, but it is nevertholess o fact, that the American dopartment of the Viennn Expoeition, in spito of tho fow medals which somo of its roul moritorions _ oxhibitors obtained, roaped but vory MLttlo lomor.. Persons entoring and goivg throngh tho Amoricon dopart- mont of the Industrial Palaco could form but a poorides of the vast resourcesof tho Union, and tho grent progross which Lor pooplo had acbioved in the fields of industry, science, edu~ cation, and arts. _Wherovor ouo turns, one moets with stands kopt by somo enterprimng Yankeo, Englishman, or Fronchman, selling, by ormission of tho American Commission, #0ma Eumbng or otlier, in thio hapo of sham jowelry, dancing dorkeys, vilo-smolling Mississippl water, and & host 0f other rubbish that should Lo mat with only in * dollar-storos,” No othor department is 8o filled up with vondors of theso bogus articles, It scoms aa if tho Americon Qommission was bont upon conveying abroad tho impression that our taste runs nnl§in the lino of eclling the chespost kind of Yankes notions, and to appropriating for us tho nppolia- tion of ' * n nation of shop-kacpors,” which En- gland has hitherto monopolized. With the ox- coption of this blur,—for which our Government 1a to blame,— THE BRIGHT SIDE of the whole Vienna Xxposition will moro than dispel all tho shadows of its dark (i. e., lusncial) sido, The natious yho have come here from all parts of the globo have learnod to approciato in & morp exalted sonse human goniug and mechan- ical skill, that manifest thomselves aliko in all countries, if only opportunity is given thom. TI{E STALILITY OF EUNOPEAN PEACE has also been enhanced by tho Vienna Exposi- tion, slthough the proverb of *PTutnot your trost in Princos” involuntarily thruats itsolf into one's mind. It is, novertheless, & fact that the entento cordiale betweon Europoan Potou- tates and Princes waa nover so firmly established ay it i at tho'presont moment, Tho long-expect- ed and wished-for visit of tho Gorman Emperor snd his Lioutenant, Bismarck, closod the list of oxalted visitors whom Auscrin had to entortnin during this year, and who came Lore to show their ficnd fooling for their genorous host. Wo should not allow our faith in their good inton- tions to bo marred by Lhe roflection that in 1867 Napolcon nlso enterisined s Loat of Royal and Imperial fiunutn, among whom wore King Will- iasm and Bismarck, his two greatest foes of 1870, Whilo on the subjoct of Princes, you might {ust ag woll loarn how many of thom graced tho Tty with their prosence during the Lxposition. Bosides the Shoh of Porsie, thoro wero two Em- porore,—the Ewporors of Russia and of Gor- imany ¢ ano Lnpross (Augusta) oo g the Kings of Italy, Belgium, an \vmnmbnrffi; fivo Queons, four Grand Dukos, five reigning Princos, and_a host of other' polty Princes, Dukos, and Duchosacs, too numeorous to men- tion. Of all tho colabrities who enjoyed tho ‘Thospitality of the Austrian Court, nono oreatod a4 much sonsation a8 DISMARCE, Tverybody wanted to soco the iron man who, within the short time of ono decade, humble two Empires snd one Kiugdow.

The donizens of tho thickly-ponuiatod districk rushed from their dwellings to the doomed houso, and thoro boheld s torrible eight.

Through tho opouing in tho front parlor Mrs, Tenwiclk could be discerved lying dead ngaiuat tho wall, The houss was in a blazo, flames rushing high above tho roof, while at the wio- dows of tho sccond floor poor Mra. Wood, with her two grandehildren, were seon shrioking fu: help. Bolow thom, at tbo first-floor window, wero Mrs, Lowis and hor two_childron, erying for aesistance.

Thoy soomod balf afraid to approach too nosr tho window, in consoquence of tho smoke and flamo; and in tho next instant the whole iu- torior of the houso scomod to _collapso uttoriy. A minute aftorward half-a-dozen human bo- ings wero writhiug sud struggling in o con- fused beap of burning dobris and furnituro. Upon the discovery being mado, nssistauco was summoned from the firc-stations and tho most intenso oxcitement provailed. The engines soon srrived from Tooley stroet, Old Kont Road, and other stations, and ‘got to work under the diroctions of Mr, Hamlyn, the District Suporin~ tondont, while Inspector Hoskisson, with & large body of polico, kept back tho ovor-incrensing crowd.

Sbaw, and a numbor of manual and land stosmers by Shand and Mason reached tho spot. The gallant Captain spocdily s6t his mon to work, and was successful in & short spaco of time 'in checking tho further progress of tho conflagration, After some timo tho fire waa got under, but not bofore tho wholo of tho building was burnt and the walls only loft stand- ing.

Tho wholo iloor wWas covered with biogd, ‘Lhie walls of the build- ing snd tho doors, in mavy placos, hiad tho ap- pearance of blood being spurtod upon them, and in somo places marks of tho hand wers visiblo, Upon the stove, near tho doceasod, was & plato of slicod bread, aud thros gloascs, from which was dralk the fiuid to which may bo attributed the solo causo of this bhollish deod. These, too, wero covered with blood. Tho back orel, tho gates, tho towals aud pans, all bore Lo marks of tho bloody worlk within, The evi- denco adduced at thie Coronor's inquest was sub- stantially about as follows ; Victor 1ok nud Ja- cob Gerey spont tho day at Hamburgh, and were Qrinking mora or loss during tho day, Whilo at Ilamburgh Gorey exhibited a kuifo and bonst- ingly deolared that it was his protoctor while up- on the railroad.
