under way. Those who have seen. the
!plans, and from personal experience are
able to- compare them with the modern
tall buildings of New. York and Chicago,
are quick to pronounce The CAII's new
home the most imposing and handsome
business structure in the United States. :
In exterior construction the new build
ing represents an immense butyery beau
tifulIy designed tower. :. The first three
stories form the base or pedestal. These
are treated in the massive style, and built
of granite, with bush-hammered face,
heavily rusticated courses and arched
openings for. windows. The next seven:
stories, being the body or shaft of the
tower, are very simple and plain in treat
meat. Above them the ornamentation
begins again, sparingly at first, but culmi-
mating at the thirteenth story in richly
carved and ornamental frieze, which forms
the setting for the massive cornice that
surmounts it. The fourteenth story is
treated in lighter design, being in effect
a colonnade with pilasters between the
many windows, while the fifteenth story,
being circular in contour, forms the base
for the beautiful and imposing dome.
The dome rises forty-five feet above its
foundation, and surmounting the dome is
a richly ornamented lantern or beIvedere
thirty feet in height. It is really much
more than a ffteen-story building, for the
entire height, 91o feet in all, will be utilized.
This is an elevation nearly double that

building in San Frascisco. !. .:-. r. ;.

the most perfect work and the greatest
comfort of their occupants.
In the basement will be the pressroom.
This will have larger superficial area
than the mere measurement of the lot on
which the building will stand, for both on
Market and on Third streets the press
rooms will be extended the full width of
the pavement. This will give ample space
and permit the most perfect and complete
appointments.
Electricity will be the one and only
power employed for all purposes in the
building. On the surface of the pavement
on Market and Third streets, above the
basement, will be broad area-way look
ing down into the pressroom, giving an
excellent view of the great printing-ma-
chimes from the street.
From the second to the twelfth stories
inclusive the floors will be arranged for
offices. There will be fourteen OF these on
each floor, all of them well lighted and
fitted handsomely, and with all the mod
ern conveniences. Each Office will have
it's lavatory, its cloakroom, its heating and
ventilating appliances, of the most ap-
proved pattern. The interior fnishings
will be of some natural hardwood, and
special and handsome design of hardware
will be chosen.
1t is Mr.. Spreckels' intention to fit these
offices in such manner as to command
the very highest class of tenants. 1t is ex-
pected that most of these offices viii be
leased before the building is completed,
and those who engage their apartments in
advance may have them finished to suit
their needs.
Special attention will be paid to the
plumbing, heating, ventilating and light
ing Of each Office, and money will not be
spared to make them the most desirable in
the City.
The main stairway, which will be Of
marble on steel supports, will extend from
the right of the elevators. The furnishings
of the lower floor will be magnificent, sur
passing in every way those Of any other
building in the City, and ranking with
those of the very finest of the great bust
ness blocks in New York and Chicago.
One might fill many columns in describing
the plans for this great building, but let it
suffice now to add only this: The Calls

plished fact, is an assured fact, and

cncc is that the governor desires to &C.

the services OF 10000 men are at his dis
pnsal for the purpose of putting down
the fight if needed. Governor Clarke wa:
more emphatic than ever in saying thai
the fight would not be allowed to come of
in Arkansas. He goes SO far as to say thai
if the affair occurs as advertised at Ho
Springs he would resign and try to find IL

"Ccc SaI ling the meeting referred to,

to engage in any branch of business,
politics or anything else, to take him en-
tirely away from his calling, business,

visions in the state of Arkansas. Man
aScr Vendig said last night: I'VE have

if representative of Corbctt might be
permitted to have n few words. There
were a few subducd expressions of dissent,
but calls to speak" speak" began to
fill the room and Brady was permitted to
talk. Brady talk captured the house, and
when he finished such an acclamation of
cheers and handclapping went up as was
never before seen or heard in that sacred
edifice. The church people were non,

house was practically empty.
