design for the new Department of
Justice building has not yet been selected
The commission having the matter under
consideration, consisting of the Attorney
General. the Supervising Architect of the
Treasury, and Architect Hornblower, has
not been called together since the return
of the Attorney General to the city. Mr.
Griggs said yesterday that there was no
necessity for hurry about accepting de-
sign, as it will be some weeks before
building operations viii commence. In
the mean time he desires the commission
to study the plans with care and delib-
Grafton, so that when the time comes to
make selection from the three designs
submitted the best will be obtained.
If the building is completed by the end
of my term of Office" said the Attorney
General, to a Times reporter, 81 will be
well pleased. You know We have a very
limited space upon which to erect an i'm
posing building such as will do credit to
the great department for which 1t is in
tended. We should have much more
ground, and / trust some day we will get
it. With the space we have, however. we
must do the best we can, trusting in the
near future and the wisdom of Congress
W give US
1t has been proposed by several architects
that Congress acquire more space adjoin-
ing the present site, which has only a
frontage Of about $50 feet on Pennsylvania
Avenue and 100 feet on Madison Place
There will be no room for parking, and
unless the building is raised more stories
than is contemplated, it will not COM
fortably accommodate the Department of
Justice. 1t is said that this matter will
be laid before Congress early in the COM
ing session, in the hope that adequate pro-
vision may be made for the new building
1t is also urged that Congress should
acquire the additional space needed by con-
demnation proceedings so that the Govern
ment could possess a site that would ac-
commodate the Department of Justice and
the Court of Claims, and other branches
of the judiciary which are at the present
time without permanent quarters. This
matter has been brought to the attention
Of the President, and it is said that he has
promised TO bring it before Congress in

DENOUNCED AS A FRAUD.
The Ex-SIave Mutual Relief As

The Ex-SInve Mutual Relief As
sociation Under the Ban.
A fraud order was issued yesterday by
the Postoffice Department against the fEx-
Slave Mutual Relief. Bounty, and Pension
Association l. H. Dickinson, NatioraI
Manager; Rev D. D. MeNainy, President;
Rev. H. Head, Treasurer. and others, OF
Nashville. Tenn.
THE ostensible object of this so-called
association is to obtain from Congress leg
islation granting pensions to ex-slayes, =
says the order. THE department found on
investigation that the scheme was to de-
fraud the very class of people for whose
benefit it falsely claims to be working.
w. r. Vaughn, former member Of Con-
gress, now in this city, has disayowed his
connection with the various fraudulent con-
Germs which have made use of his plan 10
pension former slaves. Mr.. Vaughn has
long since abandoned his efforts to procure
slave pension legislation. more uncon-
scionable and heartless fraud can hardly
be conceived. Tt is known that remittances
aggregating a large amount have been re-
eeiyed by officers of the association. All
mail addressed TO this association viii be
held up by the Postoffice Department.

league members were present and busi-
ness Of considerable Importance was tran

Admiral Dewey reception committee 10

honor was received and accepted The
question caused considerable debate among
the members of the league, who were, how
ever, unanimous in favor of the particpa-
tion Of the league as a body in the cele-
bration.
The members were assured that perfect
arrangements had been made for the sue
cess Of the affair. Many members stated
that they had distinct recollection of the
poor arrangements which had been made
for the last parade Of wheelmen in this
city when the cyclists were menaced by
the crowds which were not prevented from
crowding into the streets. 1t was sug-
gested that members who belonged to
clubs should give their preference to
the l. A. ", and turn out with that
organization. It was also thought by the
members present that the league should
adopt a suitable cap TO be worn on the
occasion as mark CT distinction, since the
league has no uniform. The idea was dis
cussed informally. and will be adopted. The
wheels of the riders in the parade will be
decorated with lanterns. A committee
composed Of c. z. Weed, Chairman; J. d.
Torsy. and Edward Klcman, was appoint
ed 10 take charge OF the arrangements for
the participation Of the league. The res
ignation Of A. Girouard as vice consul and

third days play OF the Y. NJ C. A. lawn

universally conceded that the tournament

experience on the courts has been rather
limited. but as he~is very active AMI ha q
driver he is able TO put up strong game.

ination of the Body.
Coroner Carr issued certificate of acci-
dental death yesterday afternoon in the
case of Henry C. Dean, whose body was
found lying at the foot Of a flight OF stone
steps leading from the towpath of the Ches-
apeake and Ohio canal to the bridge at
Thirty third Street, in Georgetown, We'd
nesday night The body was taken to the
morgue soon after the accident, where an
examination was made yesterday at the in
stance OF the coroner. The facts in the
case were carefully considered and after
a second examination of the body the cer-
tificate was issued and the remains turned
over to Undertaken Birch for burial. There
were no marks of foul play Oh any part
OF the body, and the theory of the police at
the time Of the discovery is thought to be
the only solution of the mystery as to how
the man met his death.
MIR Dean was said TO have been very
fond of taking long walks after eating his
evening meal, and it is thought that on ac-
count of the darkness he mistook the end
| OF the steps for part of the bridge, and,
missing his footing, fell all the way to the
bottom.
The funeral will take place from his late
residence at 2455 p Street. tomorrow after
noon at 2:30 o'clock. The interment VIII be
