HER UNFINISHED MONUMENT AT PREDERICKs
BURG.
GBy telegraph TO the Dispatch.l

fBy telegraph TO the Dispatch.l
WASHINGTON, February 21.-The recur-
renee Of the anniversary OF the birth OF
Washington has drawn attention to the
unfinished condition OF the monument to
the memory Of Mary the mother Of Wash
ington, at Fredericksburg, Va. This mon
ument Is located on an emlnence near the
former home OF Mrs. Washington. The
cornerstone was laid by President Jack
son on the 7th Of May, 1888, when he de-
livered an eloquent eulogism upon the
character and many virtues OF the noble
woman the shaft was designed TO commem-
crate. The monument was built up during
the four succeeding years, but further ope-
ratiOns were then suspended by reason oil
the failure of the New York merchant
Burrows, by whose liberality the en-
terprise had been prosecuted. since that
time the monument has suffered in IFS in
complete state by havoc OF war and deyas-
tation Of relic-seekers. The bill to COM
plete this monument was introduced in the
Forty-third Congress, and after personal
examination by special committee was
reported on favorably, but failed to re-
ceive final action. IL is understood that
Representative g. ID. Wise, OF Virginia,
win shortly introduce bill appropriating
$4,000 for the completion OF this monu-
ment. The Mayor OF Fredericksburg, Mr..
Sener, Congressman Braxton, Mr.. Fitz-
hugh, and others have just visited this
city in the hope that the measure might be
considered and passed under suspension
of the rules on the 22d OF February, but
as Congress adiourns over this win not be
practicable. 1t is believed, however, that
Congress will fayorably respond TO the
contemplated appeal at an early date.
