CAPITOL TO BE 0vERHAULED.
Much Repair Work to Be Done Be.
fore Congress Reconvenes.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL
Washington. July S.-The vast amount Of
remodeling and repair work planned for the
Capitol during the present recess Of Con-
gress ID practically at a standstill at the
present time owing to the delay in getting
the iron work.
There are two iron roofs to be construct
ed, ono over Statuary Hall and one over
the Supreme Court chamber, while iron Is
to be used largely In the work In the hall
OF the House.
The House wing Of the Capitol presents
q very dilapidated interior at the present
time. The only work that has been done
is the tearing out of the floor in both gal
lery and hall. The seats and desks OF
members are piled up In the basement.
The Republican and Democratic barber
rooms on their respective sides and are
doing business In the committee rooms.
The new committee rooms. constructed
out Of the library rooms, are receiving In
terror decorations.
Perhaps the most difficult architectural
feat to be accomplished Ia the reroohng OF
the Supreme Court chamber and Statuary
Hall. The requirement is that the ceilings
Of these historic chambers shall be repro
duced in appearance, and the further re-
quirement made that the many and varied
echoes Of statuary Hall shall also be pre-
served.
The whispering Gallery" as this one
time famous hall of state il generally
known, is one Of the traditional attractions
to visitors, as well as one Of the chief
sources Of income to Capitol guides.
Whether the echoes can be preserved cam
not be definitely predicted.

about the transportation. Mr.. Turner told
him that he should be glad to give the

after their wants. and where babies in
arms are taken their mothers also will be
invited. Lunch for the entire company will
be provided by the army and its friends.

SOLD FOR $4,000.
Largest Public Sale of Real Estate
Ever Held in East

The old Howe Institute property. consist
ing OF $40 feet on College avenue and $50
feet on Tenth street. East st. Louis. was
| sold by Master in Chancery r. d. w. Holder
to Albert NJ. Meints of East st. Louis for
$4,000 yesterday. The sale of this proper
ty Is the biggest public sale that has been
| held in East St. Louis for some time. 1t
| is one Of the most important also, for the
property Is across the street from the big
East st. Louis Rock High School. and Is In
Il section Of the city which Is growing fast
| and has become highly desirable for resi-
! aence purposes. The price is considered
very low, being about 81 per front foot on
/ College avenue.
| The property belonged to the heirs Of
! Colonel John Thomas and was secured by
him from the late John B. Lovingston Of
East St. Louis. The old Howe institute,
which was located on this property, was one
Of the Oldest educational institutes in this
| section Of the country. The building was
6ismantled and almost totally wrecked by
the tornado of 1896. Since then 1t has be-
como a refuge for pigeons and tramps.
Several years ago the Protestant Hospital
Association offered $4,000 for this piece Of
ground. 1t was intended at the time to
erect the hospital there instead Of on the
present site. Strenuous objections Were
made by the residents of the neighborhood
to the proposition and this deal was finally
declared OFF. 4
| To comply with the legal requirements and
| to secure the best price for the ground, 1t
| was first sold In building lots The highest
price offered was SO a foot. These bidders
did not expect to get the property, as It
was generally understood that one OF the
large real estate dealers would bid In the
| entire piece Of property. When the bidding
for the entire piece Of ground commenced,
Henry ID. Sexton, president of the Southern
illinois National Bank and Albert II. Meints
were the principal bidders Mr.. Sexton bid
ST.. 500 and Mr.. Meints topped this with $500
more and the property was declared sold to
him. Mr.. Meints said that he had not yet
decided what he would do with the property.
, 1t Is thought probable. however, that he
will divide 1t into building lots.

Nebraskan Confirms Story That

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.

firms to-day the statement that Aguinaldo' $
agents attempted to corrupt him during the
last presidential campaign. Mr.. Bryan read

leader Of the F1lipinos When he had fin

Mr. Bryan then explained how the offer
was made and refused. Some time before
the emissaries Of Aguinaldo called at the
Hoffman House in New York last fall. Mr.
Bryan received letter telling him that
Aguinaldo's representatives would call and
that they would make the proposition to
Mr.. Bryan that Asuinaldo would give $780,
900 to the Democratic campaign fund. In
addition they would promise for the Filipino
leader that he would surrender IN the event
that the Nebraskan was elected, and that
the surrender would be immediate and un-
conditional
Wanted . Promise from Bryan.
In return, they would exact promise
that a reasonable form Of government
founded on the principles OF government in
the United states; be given in the Philip
pines. Therefore. when the Filipino agents
appeared at the Hoffman House Mr.. Bryan
was ready for them. He refused to see
them.
They clamored for an audience, or for an
audience with some one who represented
Mr.. Bryan. To all these appeals he was
needless. He not only refused to see them.
but he refused to delegate any one with
authority or power to consider any propo-
sition they might make.
Finally. after trying to the utmost to get
to Mr.: Bryan and put the proposition before
him they abandoned the plan and took the
advice of some OF the attaches of the ma
tional headquarters STAFF which was to
leave New York and report to their princi-
pals that the Democrats would have moth
