Mrg Grant is a charming conversationalist; she shows an intense interest in American af- fairs, particularly the forthcoming exposi- tion at Chicago and the political outlook of the republican party for 1802 Although they boast of no great wealth, the Grants by their name and official station take rank with the highest at the Austrian court. They are well satisfied with their position, egpecially Miss Julia Grant (now the Prin- cess Cantacuzene), and her only brother, Ulysses Simpson Grant, a bright boy of 1i, who wears a military uniform on occasions and West Point in simplicity hopes to due course of time.” At the time of my visit elan princess was a bright full of vivacity and thoroughly tional in her manners General Fred Grant's appreciation of the compliments paid him is expressed in a letter from Vienna on January 31, 1802, from which the following extract may be of interest: “Permit me to this occa- slon thank you most sincerely for the coples of The Omaha Bee, which comes to me regularly with each mail and which 1 and all this legation read with the greatest pleasure.

Mrs. Grant joins with me In thanking you for your most kind remembrance of us and both beg that you will convey to your son, whom we were so glad to have met, our thanks for the beautiful and complimentary article which he kindly sent us.” At the time of my visit to Vienna was a vacancy in the office of s¢ war and speculation was rife as fo would be chosen to fill the place. *““My high- est ambition,” said Minister Grant to me before we parted, “is to be secretary of war some day." Without sa g a word to the celonel I communicated his wish to John Wanamaker, then member of the cabinet, invoking his influence behalf of Colonel Grant Before le Curope I recelved a favorable respons m the postmaster general, postmarked from San Augustine, Fla Within a few days after my return to America I made a personal appeal President Harrison for Colonel Grant’'s appointment. The president looked quizzed and dubious “I should like to gratify Colonel Grant's ambition,” said he, “but doubt whether his appointment is feasible. While 1 do not always adhere to tradition and precedent, there is a sort of unwritten law which has governed all former administrations that West Pointer should hold the position of secre- tary of war.” A few weeks later the As- sociated Press announced the appointment of Stephen B, Elkins to the place coveted by Minister Grant In October, 1894, the Society of the Army of the Tennessee, of which General Gren- ville M. Dodge was the president, held {ts annual reunion at Council Bluffs. On the day the reunion was to open my ste- nographer, the late Tug Wilson, while oc- cupying the chair in the ante-room of the editorial department, handed me two cards, with this explanation: ““A couple of men whom I don’t know and whom I don't con- sider of very much importance left these cards, so I did not let them come in.” Glancing at the first card I read the name Frederick D. Grant. On the second card was inscribed P. Tecumseh Sherman. Without losing much time I passed down to the headquarters of the Department of the Platte and found the two unimpressive gentlemen with strange names in the office occupied by General Brooke, the depart ment commander After renewing our acquaintance and while my were in the editorial sanctum General Grant was joined by his son, Ulysses 8. Grant third, now about to graduate from West Point, and who expressed much pleasure at being able to renew the acquaintances made in Vienna three years previous The only other member of the Grant family whom I have met is Ulysses 8., the oldest son of President Grant, a resident of San Diego, who headed the California delegation to the republican national con vention at Philadelphia, which I also was a delegate His resemblance to President Grant was so striking that I could have singled him out among thou- sands Mr. Grant Is a recognized leader in the republican party in his state and may in the distant future represent California in United States sen E.

In some cases the fathers have passed away, but the sons continue the business and the orders come in all the same. This foreign trade is worth the consideration of the American manufacturer. It should be nursed at the expense of the home sales, for in hard times the European market may tide over many a shaky factory.” Mr. Silcox does an enormous business with Russia. He has dealt with the Rus sians for years, and he has now his agents in every large town of European Russia and also in Turkistan and Siberia. He sup plies the czar with agricultural machinery and deals largely with the communal vil lage semblies. In Russia much of the land is owned by the villages, and the vil- lage officials buy machinery for the com- mon use of the people. A great deal of our agricultural machin- ery goes to south Russia. I have seen large orders for American reapers for the Cos- sack country, and while in Paris got a pic- | ture of a camel hauling a Deering mower over the steppes of Siberia. The cotton re- gions of Turkistan were started with Amer- fcan cottonseed sent by Mr. Silcox to Russia. It is probable that American cotton ma- chinery could be sold there, for thousands of bales of that cotton are now annually shipped to the factories of Moscow. I was interested in the novelties I saw {n the warehouse of Mr. Silcox. In addition to | all sorts of farm tools there were a number of notions of various kind One, for in- stance, were some grocery es which had been sold by the thousands to the foundling asylums for the weighing of babies. A pat ent knife grinder for sharpening mowing machines has been a wonderful seller, and there are hand plows which are sold to the vineyardists of France and Spain to clean out the weeds between the grapevines FRANK G.
