Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1891-04-04


On the publication Of my intention To dis
band the seventh and eighth battalions it was
Immediately taken up BY the newspaper. as a
choice morsel Of sensational news on the color
| question and the most gross and malignant
| lies produced and propagated, TO which have
carefully and persistently refused to make any
reply.
The following evening meeting Of citizens
was held at the armory of the seventh hat
TALON, which meeting adopted certain resolu-
/ tons and appointed a committee TO call on the
President Of the United States to protes.
against my acts and to urge their revocation.
This committee called on the President the fol-
lowing morning, the l4th instant In the
meantime had reported to the President INV

ton had issued orders to the commanding off,

Their orders. immediately after the committee
/ OF citizens had finished their call upon the

cause of complaint and difficulty would be re-
moved, and he directed me to make most earn
est efforts to bring about such consolidation
/ tremendously and satisfactorily rather than by
the exercise Of military authority.
| CONFERENCE WITH OFFICERS AND CITIZENS
thereupon directed the commanding officers
Of the seventh and eighth ba:talions and the
commanding officers of the companies OF
those battalions to meet me for the purpose OF
expressing their views AS to the proposed con-
solidation (see inclosure .D'') and invited
Hon. b. h Bruce, Hon. John r Lynch and
Mr. W. Calvin Chase to be present at the con-
ference, with a view Of obtaining the benefit OF
! their recommendations after they had learned
all the facts and also their aid in securing the
proposed consolidation (see Enclosure .E'O
The advisory committee Of citizens, after

What sad loss this miscarriage WAS for
Washington no one who has not seen the
Ponce de Leon" and its hardly less attractive
ad1uncts "The Alcazar" and 1.-THE Cordova"
can form the slightest conception. Such a
hotel here would have been worth thousands and
thousands of dollars to the city and source of
pride to the whole country well. The hope
was expressed to Mr.. Flagler that he might yet
be inspired to carry out his original intention,
and thus become a public benefactor while
building an imposing and enduring monument
to himself. He kindly answered that such
thing was possible, but hardly probable" At
the pity!

UNCONVENTIONAL college, toward which
private donations of valuable land have
been made, and $4,000 in cash promised
1t is hoped TO make the sum $4,000. when

preparing to found a college here; and

Synod held at Minneapolis were directed To.
