Something About the Sculptors who Have
Been Awarded the Contract.
The contract for the equestrian statue Of
Gen. Grant, to be erected in the park by the
Paramount Park Art Association, has been
awarded to Edward G. Potter and Daniel G.
French, the New York sculptors. The contract
price is $40, 900.

artists named, both of whom obtained their
wives from families resident Capitol Hill.

Gen. Dumont, steamboat inspection service.
Messrs French and Potter have been engaged
during the year past in art decoration for the
Columbian exhibition at Chicago.
Mr. Frenchs colossal statue Of Liberty has
been commended all over the world. In addi-
ton, Mr.. French and Mr. Potter, in con-
junction, are the sculptors and designers Of
other art work at the fair. Of one of their
works, the "Quadriga," Mr.. Frank A. Millet
in the December Scribner SAYS
The great central arch or water gate sup
ports a colossal Quadriga executed by Mr.. D.
c. French and Mr.. Edward G. Potter, the
former undertaking the figure work and the
latter the horses. Two pair of horses, led by
classical female figures, draw a high chariot
with a male figure symbolizing the spirit of dis
covery of the fifteenth century, and pages on
horseback flank the chariot on either SIDE en-
riching the composition SO that it presents a
well-sustained mass from every possible point
of view. This group is an achievement well
worthy of its situation as the dominating en-
Enlistment of the great court with its wealth of
sculpture and ornament.
The terraces afford another inviting field for
open-air decoration. Numerous pedestals have
tempted the skill of the sculptors of the Quad
riga to produce distinguished types Of the horse
aud the bull
Messrs. Potter and French will be fully occu-
pied on the worlds fair work until the opening
OF the fair in May next.

Suit Against Col. Shepard Fails.

Counsel began summing up yesterday morn
ing in the suit of Frank S. Gray against Col.
Elliott F. Shepard in New York.
Col. Ingersoll spoke for over an hour. He
said in regard to the paper in Gray's possession
and produced in evidence, that Gray was justi-
fed in holding this paper to defend himself
against the charges of dishonesty. Isn't it rs
demonstrable as the consultations that shine
that Col Shepard attempted to get that ad-
vertisement by the improper payment Of
$1,000?
he jury in the afternoon returned a verdict
in favor of Col. Shepard. 4 motion for new
trial was denied and an allowance was granted
to the defendant of per cent on $4,000
