Col Casey feels greatly relieved that the uncer-
tainty OF receiving the roof stones of the Washing
ton monument is groundless. Capt. Davis reports
that the two mills OF Mr. Hugh Sisson are capable
OF turning out in six weeks time all the stones me-
cessary to complete the structure, and the work on
the roof can therefore be commenced by the 1st CT
September, as was first intended, with but little
fear OF delay from unlorseen obstacles.
BY this evening the monument will have reached
foot the Cathedral Rouen leaving but one higher
structure In the world-the Cathedral at Cologne,
which is 625 feet high.
During the first season OF the work Of adding to
the structure which stood so long at height Of $50
feet, the monument was raised to l16 feet, an in
crease OF 26 feet In height and in cubic feet an in
crease Of 37,719. AT the end OF the second season
the monument stood $50 feet high. an Increase in
height OF "a feet, and in cubic feet 86.6l0s6 feet
At the end OF the third season the register shows
the increase to have been 80 feet In height and
q, ,760 cubic feet The next year the increase was
20 feet In height and 1,1b5T8 cubic feet By the
tenth OF August Of the present and fifth year. the
shaft proper will have been completed, and will be
i've hundred feet nigh, gain Of 80 feet in height
and 3O156 cubic feet By comparing the increase
In height with that In cubic feet, 1t will be seen
that the latter has been gradually diminishing in
proportion.
Tie gradual decrease In the thickness of the
stones can be realized by comparing the weight OF
the first course which was laid-266. 30 tonS-and
the last course, which will be MO tons, the former
being between eight and nine times as heavy as
the latter.

GREELY ORDERED TOO HIGH UP.


Lieut.. Danenhower, who was interviewed in New
York, said: SIN September last Prof Joseph Lock-
wood, OF the navy, advocated the plan OF sending
forlorn hope expedition. Itwas deemed mpractfcable
at the time and given up. II Is now evident, how
ever, that II vessel had been able to get to Cape
York at that time 1t would have reached Cape Sa-
bne, for the channel was so open that Greely's
party could not get from sabine to L1ttetOn island
having abandoned their boats. The condition of
the ice In Melville bay at that season is not known.
II Is almost impossible for ship TO work its way
in the darkness of the polar nights. 1t must be
membered that this relier expedition had the ad-
vantage OF continuous daylight / always insisted
that some Of the Greedy party would be found
alive, but did not think that Commando Schley
would reach them before the middle OF July. They
must have sustained themselves miraculouSly for
nine months. / do not hesitate to express the
opinion that Greely was sent too far north There
are IL stations up there but Greedy thrust some
ten degrees further north than any OF Them Point
Barrow is In 72 degrees mort while Greey had to 90
up to So degrees. He would not have been ordered
up there had 1t not been for English reports The
