THE NEW CITY POST OFFICE.
Plans Will Probably He Prepared i'm the Su
peryising Architect's. Once.

Plans Will Probably He Prepared in the SUI.
pervisins Architects ONCE.
Although the commission on the new city
post Office has not considered the subject very
attentively as yet it is probable that the plans
and specifications for the building will be
drawn under the direction Of the
supervising architect Of the treas
ury, who will also have charge of the
construction of the edifce. His Office is very
much crowded with work, every draughtsman
and clerk being fully employed on the build
ings provided for during the past two years,
and it is thought that this condition will con-
tinue throughout the building of the post Of
ficc at least. The commission. however. will
probably decide to employ an extra force
to aid the supervising architect in this
work rather than let it be done by an architect
in private business, thus adhering to the policy
that has been maintained during this admins
tration and the last one of having the work of
designing public buildings done by public serv-
ants 1t is understood that the plan most fav-
ored Just at present-although nothing as yet
has been done in this line-is Of q massive
building presenting a solid, square effect, with
out much effort at tower or minaret decoration,
built either of marble or granite. A light
hued material will almost certainly be uced.
1t is said than an effort will be made by GER
tain parties. inasmuch as no decision has yet
been made, to have the commission open the
matter of plans so that there can be a competi-
ton among architects outside of the employ of
the government. This is not likely to be of
avail. Another attempt will also be made to
induce the commission TO recommend the erec-
ton of a smaller building than is contem-
plated by the law, which specifies eight stories.

POTOMAC BRIDGE BILL.
1t is Now Proposed to Cross the Rive,
the Three Sisters.

1t is Now Proposed to Cross the River al
the Three Sisters.
Mr.. Higgins this morning in the Senate called
up the bill chartering the Washington and Ar
lington railroad, which it will be remembered
YVES debated at some length last session.
Tho BILL it will be remembered, gives the
company the right to use the Aqueduct bridge.
The bill was readb by sections and amended in
some few particulars.
THE AMENDED BILL
a. considered today provides for new bridge
across the Potomac west Of the Aqueduct
bridge at the Three Sisters. over which the
cars Of the company shall run and connect
with the Washington and Georgetown road.
MIR. German wanted an amendment COMPEL
ing the company to allow cars OF every de-
scription to come over the bridge.
Mr.. Ingalls, argued against forcing the CON-
pafy to allow steam cars to use the structure.
Mr.. German argued that this situation was
the only place Oh the Potomac naturally fitted
for bridge and all roads should
enter by means of this structure. The matter
was further debated by Messrs. Higgins and
barbour.
Mr.. ooRMAN's AMENDMENT.
At the end of the debate Mr.. Higgins agreed
to accept Mr.. Germans amendment provided
it was coupled with the condition
that the control of the bridge was not to
pass from this railway company or its proper
share Of IL.
At this point Mr.. Hoar objected to further
consideration and the bill went over until to-
morrow.

NEW YORK, Dec. IS.--At z o'clock this morn

Schaeffer Brewing Co. on Park avenue between

stored IL least 200, 600 bushels of barley which
went down with the wreck. At3 o'clock last

HIGH POWER GUNS.
Report Of the Board on Gan Factories and
Steel EorSings,

Report Of the Board on Gan Factories and
Steel Forgings.,
The Secretary of Var has sent TO the Senate
preliminary report of the board on gun
factories and steel forgings for hirh power
guns appointed by the President under an act
OF the last session Of Congress. The Secretary
states that il may soon be advisab,e to establish
gun factory at some point on the Pacific coast
OF sufficient capacity to supply the guns re-
qnired for the armament of that coast. He
further says that il appears that there is as vet
no plant ready on the Pacific coast equal TO the
manufacture of large gun forgings. but that
capital seems ready to take hold and has al
ready begun TO locate itself with this object in
view, at more than one point. The commits
sion consisted Of three officers of the army. who
were directed to inquire into the facilities for
producing steel forgings for high power guns
on the Pacific coast and in the vicinity Of the
indianapolis arsenal, the Rock lsland arsenal.
and at some point near the Gulf cast, and the
advisability of erecting factories for the as
sembling Of guns for fortifcation purposes.
In regard 70 the capacity of private work
shops on that coast To furnish guns the COM
mission says from that investigation il is
believed they are very limited. and that no
establishment possesses such machinery or
shops for tho installment Of forging, as to en-
| able them to undertake any important amount
| OF work
As to the Watervliet factory. the report states
that IL is believed that the limit Of present ca
pacity has been reached. With the south wing
of this factory fully equipped and working at
its full capacity il would require twenty
two years to furnish the guns required for tho
Atlantic coast defense. for The Atlantic and
Gulf coasts about twcnty-six years. and for the
Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific coasts forty wears.
RECOMMENDATIONS.
In the opinion of the board the time required
to comrlete the armament. either with the
! existing facilities or with those which would De

factory, is too long, ard il therefore advises in

TO CURE CONSUMPTION.
Reported Discovery OF an Emclent Remed
BY Michigan Physicians.

hepOrte0 D1scOVery Oh an EmC1ent nem0Oy
BY Michigan Physicians.
DETROIT. Mich, Dec. 1.-TWO Of the fore
most physicians Of Michigan announced yes
terday that they have discovered consumption
cure whose efficacy is beyond question. The
medical men who have thus distinguished
themselves are DR.. E. L. Shurley, principal
physician of the Harbor Hospital. and DIR.
Henesge Gibbs Of the Michigan University Of
Ann Arbor. For over year these two doctors
have bent all their energies to the discovery OF
a cure and not until yesterday. VIXEN the sue
cess of their l.bors was beyond doubt, did
they announce it. The theory upon which this
work has been carried on does not harmonic
with that advanced by DIR. Koch. The hospital
has spent $4,000 in perfecting arrangements
for the cure and success at last seems to have
been reached. Adozen cases attest the efficacy
of the treatment The most marvellous feature
is the cure of Miss Jackson of Windsor. who
was taken to the hospital in dying condition
in an ambulance seven weeks ago and yester-
day. on being discharged cured. walked two
miles TO her home. apparently restored in
health. Both DR.. Shuriey and DR.. Gibbs stand
high in their profession and Michigan physi-
clans regard their cure as the great discovery
of the century.

AN UNEXPECTED INCIDENT.
How the Birth Of the Kaiser's Son Was
Announced.

How the Birth Of the Kaiser's Son Was
Announced.
BERLIN, Dec. 1S.-An unexpected incident
marked a gala performance Of 'Tannhauser''
at the Royal Opera House in Inter Den Linden
last evening. The magnificent edifice was
crowded with the rank and fashion Of Berlin,
the ladies vieing with each other in the
freshness of their early winter toi-
lets and the emperor himself occu-
pying the imperial box. Everything
had proceeded smoothly until the second act
was well under way, when his majesty was OBJ
served to leave the box hurriedly. making his
way to his carriage in the court yard. This
gave rise to no much subdued gossip that the
latter portion of the act was scarcely listened
to. When. therefore, the herr director came
before the curtain during the entrc act
and announced that the Kaiser had
been hastily summoned to the bedside of the
kaiserin and that "a message had since been re-
ceiyed announcing that the empress had given
birth to q son. the announcement was re-
ceived with the greatest enthusiasm. the audi
ence rising to their feet and shouting ''Long
hive the emperor and the empress" The band
played the national anthem, the audience sing
ing the words Of the hymn.
