SAYS THERE NO DANGER.
Architect Burlington Talks AbOui
His Srare ROuse

L. S. Burlington, who built the state cap
itol, was in st. Paul yesterday, and when
asked by GLOBE reporter as to the condi
ton of that building, he took occasion to
deny in forcible terms that there was any
danger of general tumble up there or any
cause for alarm on the part of the officials
who spend their time for some hours every
day beneath the dome. Mr. Burlington
said that he had examined beneath the
thing at no less than fifteen or twenty
places and had found in that number three
or four where there was dry rot This was
due, he said, to the condition of
the timbers when they were put in.
He cited several other buildings in
the city where the same dry rot had been
found, but no commotion had been caused,
because they were not public buildings.
Mr. Burlington said that the sagging
noticed in the thing on the second floor of
the east wing, was due entirely to little
dry rot There was, he said, no danger
that the floor would fall. He was willing
to walk or jump on any part of it. He
said that he had known for two or three
weeks that some repairs would have to be
made in the near future, and the fact
thai he had considered that there was
absolutely no danger had caused him to
delay the work on them. This work of
overhauling, he said, would probably be
done next week, and meantime no one
need feel any alarm that any part of the
building would cave in.

About hundred of the representative
tax payers and citizens living at Posts Sid

street at that place last evening to form an
organization similar in object to the Day

The incline is to be. if built, similar to
those in operation in Cincinnati. Kansas
City. Pittsburg, and other cities. Vehicles
are driven from the street upon sort of
track which is pulled by steam engine up
the incline. This it is said, has been

an adequate ide of the scheme 1t is pro-
posed to make the incline, if the system is
carried out, to accommodate vehicles of all
kinds and pedestrians, as well as for street
cars. A small fee is to be charged for the
transportation. Those who favor the
project aggue that property benefited by
the improvement is two miles in length

be rapidly built up by business men with
the rapid transit line in operation. The dis
lance by the present line from Broadway

miles, and owing to the heavy grades the
time required is siXty-five minutes. The
