piished gentleman, charming social

ability, but he simply makes Vermont his
summer home, goes about the state on
occasions OF public gatherings and makes

twenty-nine years of his legal residence
here that he held public office
He did not do enough in the public SER
vice to get mention of it either into the

DEVELOPMENT OF THE
WHITE HOUSE GROUNDS

Monument, 10 near the level of the base
OF the shaft, would. by extending this
level to the southwest and terminating it
in d sweeping curve, give a finer location
than any other possible for a boulevard
which. with terraces. would afford an
outlook, for those who walk as well as
those who ride, over an adjacent speed

proved a profitable venture and similar
process is declared to be easy of accom-
plishment from the Virginia hills.
Most Commanding Point.
Apart from the results predicted for
the plan outlined. but directly con-
nected with the development OF this sec
tion OF the city, is the proposed change
of the White Houses relative Importance
in the general arrangement of Govern
rent buildings ii new structure shall
L, erected on LAFAYETTE Square.
Enfant and Washington first selected
went over the topography Of, the whole
District. and were free to select any point
they desired. The point they did select
was. in their judgment, most command
ing. with noble view toward the river.
which view they intended to develop and
adorn with great department buildings.
All of the old maps, il is stated, show
this very clearly.
Effect on White House.
In the old plans the President house
is placed at the head of this axis and
public buildings are located on the south
of il. en- either side of the great line of
view from the White House toward the
monument. These who oppose a change
from this plan show that the Treasury
Department and State Department have
been built with This view. and that their
grade on Pennsylvania Avenue is too low
to permit pubic building to be placed
TO the north of them. They contend that
public buildings aroLnd Lafayette Square
would be merely a formal quadrilateral
and would dwarf the White House.
The general impre ssion that the Park
COMMISSION mas merely carried out the
cid plan of the city is opposed by state
Inents showing that most material va
riations are proposed The Park Commits
sion proposes to give The region adjacent
to the White Lot over to trees and grass
and to condemn squares 49, los. 1s5. 200,
2ls and 22l. being the six squares west,
northwest. north. northeast and east OF
Lafayette Square. The White House
would stand on the south side of this
quadrilaterdl and cut eff the view to the
south and there would be 10 architectu-
raj development, OF the great line Of view
between the White House and Monument,
as intended by Major LEnfant and Cen
eral Washington.
Cost Of Grading.
The grading necessary to bring the
White House region up TO proper level
would cost. it is estimated, only about ST.
800 coo as compared with the cost CT the
six squares around Lafayette Square ag

contemplated for public buildings.

and that its name is used to obtain money
for the operation OF the bank.
The cause of Jordan's suit is found in
the allegation that the building company
owes him money, and that, according to
his petition. he has not been able to
make it pay up. He sets forth in his
complaint that he loaned the building
company the following sums: May 2. 1898.
1925; July 2. 1898 s25; October 3. 1898. $50:
November Is. 1898, $3.50, making total
of $3.50 which. he says, the company has
reduced to Sll0. which is still due. and
Der Is. 1900.
Jordan alleges he has been unable to
collect this sum, and that if the company
has any assets they are located in such

A point OF special interest to tie city

AN INDEPENDENT INSTITUTION
Bank Declared to Be in No Way Allied
to Industrial Building and Savings
Company-Funds Said 10 Have Always
Been Kept Separate.

Proceedings were begun in the Su-
preme Court of the District yesterday by
Daniel Jordan for the purpose of having
a receiver appointed to take charge of
the assets Of the Industrial Building and
Savings Company and the Capital Savings
Bank. The complainant alleges that the
first named institution is indebted to him
in the sum of $40 which he is unable to
collect. The officers of the Two corpora
fions are also named as defendants.
The board OF directors Of the Capital
Savings Bank, however, contend that the
tyo institutions are in no way connected.
and that the bank is not responsible
either directly or indirectly for the liza
bilities of the Industrial Building and
Savings Company.
Secretary Terreli's Statement.
Mr. Robert H. Terrell, the secretary of
the Capital Savings Bank, last evening
issued the following statement in regard
TO the proceedings instituted by Daniel
Jordan against that institution:
THE board OF directors of the Capital
Savings Bank. having had their atten-
tion called to the suit OF Daniel Jordan
against the Industrial Building and Saw
ings Company, published in The Times
OF today hereby give notice that the said
bank is in nowise connected with the
said Building and Savings Company, and
that the said bank is not responsible di-
rectly or indirectly for the liabilities of
said Building and Savings Company.
None OF the money Of said Jordan, or
of any other member of the said Build
ing and Savings Company has been
mingled with the funds OF the said bank
or used for its benefit. The said Building
and Savings Company S funds have always
been kept separate from the funds of the
bank.
no demand has ever been made by
said Daniel Jordan on the bank, and no
claim ever heretofore made by him
against the bank on account Of this al
legged debt from the said Building and
Eavings Company.
ROBERT II. TERRELL
Secretary OF Capital Savings Bank
Besides asking for the appointment OF
a receiver the court is also petitioned to
restrain the officers from disposing OF the
assets.
Both the bank and the building and
sayings company were organized and
have been and are conducted by colored
men Their officers, directors and GUS
toners are colored. The bank is prob
ably the only one of its kind in the world.
and as such has figured frequently and
prominently in various articles on the
progress and advancement being made by
the colored race.

Moreover. Jordan asserts. while this
money was borrowed ostensibly for the
building company. it was really for the
bank. was deposited with the bank as
part of the funds Of the bank, and was
used by the bank. He says 1t was not
kept apart from the funds of the bank in
any way. and that the building company
never had any funds of its own separate
and apart from the funds of the bank.
