THE NEW LIBRARY BUILDING.
Mr.. Vest Speaks as to Those Entitled
to Credit In It's Contraction.

Mr.. Vest Speaks as to Those Entitled
to Credit in It's Construction.
In the Senate yesterday Mr.. Vest took
occasion to refer to the controversy that
has gone on for some time over the degree
OF credit to which various architects Of :he
new library building are entitled for their
work in the design of that structure
MI Vest said that he had been surprised
to see that Mr.. Bernard R. Green. superin-
tendent of the library building, had said
In lecture, recently delivered in this civ.
that the library had not been constructed
on the plans and specifications furnished bv
Smithmeyer and Pelz. He said thai Gen.
casey had written the Inscription Eow ex-
hibited in the library building which states
that Sm1thmeyer and PelZ We're the archi-
tects, and also adds the name of Gen
Casey's son. He said that Cen Casey wrote
that inscription himself and SO informed
him. He said that Gen. Casey had testified
before the joint committee on the library
that the plans and specifications Lsed in the
erection of the building were those Of
Smithmeyer and Pelz. Mr.. Vest said that
In Mr.. Green's lecture it was stated that
the plans used in the construction of the
building were prepared in 1885 being re-
modelled by Gen. Casey's SON.
This is the most astonishing ard the
grossest tnjuctive to Smithmeyer and PeIz, u
said Mr.. Vest.
Mr.. Vest said that Gen. Caseys son was
not employed either as an assistant en-.
gineer or as an architect of the new library
building until 1892. He said that the plans
mad been prepared under competition. ano
tnat those of Smithmeyer and Peiz have
been The result of thirteen years of work
and were selected as The hest among q
great number of other plans. de said Iha
the new library building was the most mag
nificent structure in the woril, and tn,
dispute over the architect to whom be-
ionged the credit Of that structure was al

A Remarkable Address to ex-Confed.

st. Louis, November 26.-General Vim
cent Marmaduke. of Sweet Springs, Mo-,
who was recently appointed by the ex-
confederate veterans of Missouri as
chairman of a committee to write an au-
thentic history Of the part Missouri and
MissOurians took in the civil war, today
issued a remarkable address,. 1t was ad-
dressed to the ex-confederates of Mis-
souri, and said in part:
1.-The honor and glory of this great
struggle was with the south and south
ern soldiers ought in justice to them
selves and their dead comrades preserve
the memoir of it. While the north and
all manifestation of sectional feeling,
they are erecting to their
successful leaders and telling the story
very much to their credit and to our
detriment. The north had more thu
four soldiers to one in the south. Its
armies were reinforced and assisted by
600 ships of war, manned by 81, 900 sailors.
1t had unlimited credit, which meant an
unlimited supply of money. 1t had fac
tories to manufacture ever sthing needed
to arm and eQuip-to supply and main
tain its armies and fleets. 1t had rail-
roads running in every direction for the
transportation of it's troops. 1t had inter
course with the whole world and could
draw recruits for its army and navy from
the whole world. The south had none OF
these advantages, or had them only to a
limited extent. But, Notwithstanding all
its advantages it took the north four
years to crush the south and then it did
1t by a grinding process and without
having gained a single decisive victory
