FOR SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH.
Announcement of Great Interest in
 Scientific Circles of New York.

New York. April 6-5An announcement of great interest to the scientific circles of the metropolis was made today by the council of the Scientific Alliance of New Work. For the past ten years the Alliance has been considering the erection of a building which should give the facilities for the advancement of original research which it's members have long needed; but owing to unpropitious times no substan- tial progress has hitherto been made.
 Thes plan now contemplates the erec- ton of a temple of science costing half a million dollars. The project is commend ed to the public over the signatures of a distinguished committee of cooperation consisting of Andrew H. Green, chair mani, Andrew Carnegie ex-Mayor Abram s. Hewitt. Samuel Sloan, w. F. Dodgs Edward D. Adams, John S. Kennedy Frederick W. Devoe J. Hampden Robb, D. Willis James and Col. John J. McCook
 The scientific alliance is composed of the New York Academy of Sciences, the Tor ry Botanical Club, the New York Micro- scopial Society, the Linnaean Society of New York, the New York Neurological Club, the New York section of the Amer ican Chemical Society and the New York Etomology Society. The building is to be to them what Burlington House in Lon don Is to the Royal, the Geodetical, the chemical, the antiuarian, the astronomical Of Pelles Letteras Sciences. Beaux Arts homes therein, or what the Palaz de L h. stitute in Paris Is to the four academies of Pelles Letteras Sciences, Beaux Arts and Sciences Morales ct Politiques.
