OF THE STRUCTURE.
Regarding the suggestion OF the Architectural
League to the Council Of the National Academy OF
Design, that the building at Fourth-ave. and
nty-third-st. which is to be vacated by the
Academy In June and torn down. should be rebuilt
in Central Park. Frederick Dielman. chairman OF
the Building Committee Of the Academy OF Design.
said yesterday TO Tribune reporter;
Great approval has been felt for the scheme by
the members OF the Academy, as. Of course. We are
fond Of the old building. and we replied to the
league that should be happy 10 cooperate In
any plan looking to such end The building Is
really beautiful piece OF architecture. and the

principles that admirable piece OF architecture

Mr.. Dielman added that the temporary structufe
was so well under way that 1t would be completed
in few weeks. 1t was erected on the One nun,
cost of about $4,000 and promised to be plain
but extremely practical school building !, would would
