Gen. Longstreet and His Political
Career-HOw Gen. Swain Made His
Way Into Public Life.
Correspondence of the Morning Ee1Os.
WASHINGTON, Aug 1.-''I have never
seem" said the Assistant Engineer of
the Washington monument to your cor
respondent, ''a correct representation Of
the monument in the way Of drawing or
newspaper cut of any sort. DON'T think
any has ever been made"
This being the case, your correspondent
furnishes you below a correct representa-
ton of the monument as it is to be when
completed. In another fortnight it will
be completed all but the roof or apex.
By the time snow flies it is expected that
the last stone of the roof will be in place,
and the copper point, which is to be
placed upon the summit connected with
the iron columns running from the base
to top. On Feb. %, Of next year,
it is to be formally dedicated by
Robert Winthrop, the man who laid
the corner stone, the oldest living Speaker
of the House OF Representatives The
| first action by Congress for a monument
of this sort was on Aug. 7, 1913, when a
resolution was passed ordering the erec-
| ton of an equestrian statue of Washing
/ ton, to be erected at the place where the
residence of Congress is to be, supported
/ by a marble pedestal showing the four
principal events of the war in which
4 Washington was commander. This was
the origin of the Washington monument
When he died in December, 1893, his
! death having been announced, the House
and Senate passed a joint resolution fol
the erection of a monument, under which
his body should be placed by the consent
of his family. His wife wrote a letter Of
/ consent to Congress-.
In 1901 a resolution was passed by the
House directing work to begin, but the
Senate failed to pass it. In 1916 James
| Buchanan, then young member of Con
gress from Pennsylvania, made another
effort, but failed. In 1916 the Washing
| ton Monument Society was formed, $S7,
600 were collected in sums of 81, eacI
person contributing becoming member
| On July 4, 1S4S, the cornerstone was
laid. The officers of the society began
the work and carried it slowly until 1855
| The work was not stopped then because
of the lack of funds, for there
was some money then on hand
About this time the Pope SEN
a stone to be placed in the monument
The Know Nothing sentiment ran strong
| just Uhen, ana one dark nlgnC some I'M
known persons gathered at the monument
gagged the Waterman, succeeded il
| getting the stone and brought it to The
| river, where they broke it in pieces anC
threw it in. A few days afterwards 75C
new memberships were taken out, which
it afterward turned out were for Know
Nothings, and when the next election fol
officers was held they voted out the ole
board, and voted in a new one, made W
of Know Nothings. An appropriation o.
100000 had already passed the House, but
when it came to the ears of the Senate it re.
fused to pass the bill, and so work ceased

Gov. Fairfield, of Maine, on his return
from Philadelphia, on July 1, 1914, as th e
Chairman of Committee of the Nationa
Democratic Convention, to inform Mr..
Dallas of his nomination as Vice Presi-
dent, gave an amusing account of the
scene. The committee reached Phila-
delphia about O'Clock in the morning,
and were piloJed to MIR. Dallas house by
his friend, Senator Robert j. Walker, who
was one of the number. Loud knocks at
the door brought Mr.. Dallas to his
chamber window, and recognizing Mr..
Walker he feared that his daughter, who
was in Washington, was Ill, and he
FASTENED down stairs, half dressed and
barefooted, to hear from him, when, to
his utter amaZement, in walked sixty or
more gentlemen, two by two, with the
tread of soldiers passing him by, and
entering his front parlor as though to
make him a captive. Mr.. Dallas, not
having the slightest conception of their
object, stood thunderstruck at the scene.
Mr.. Walker led him into the back parlor.
'My dear Walker" said he, in amaze
ment, sswhat is the matter?"
fWait one moment, if YOU please, Da /
las; wait one moment, ifIyou please.''
The folding doors were then thrown
open and the whole delegation then step
ped forward and gave three deafening
cheers for ''Polk and Dallas" MIR. Dallas
stood paralyzed. Mr.. Walker enjoyed his
discontinue. Gov. Fairfield, of Maine,
then stepped forward, and in the name (
the delegation announced his nomination.
