Provide for Erection or 1876 Government
Buildings. to Cost $50, 100000.

Washington, July 24.-The office of
the supervising architect of the
treasury has an unprecedented
amount of business on hand. No
firm of architects, no dozen firms
combined, ever had so much to do

rests upon James K. Taylor, the head
of that Office. During the last ses-
sion of congress he was commits
stoned to erect 1875 public buildings at
a cost of $50, 100000. Of these build
ings 125 will be erected after COM
petitive designs, the competition be-
ing open to all the architects of the
country, but the 60 smaller buildings
will be designed in the architects
Office, for there is not enough in
them to justify a competitive test.

Offensive and He VIII Be Request
ed to Resign.

Washington, July 22.-It is expect
ed at the war department that Con-
sui Bragg will resign his position at
Havana within the next two weeks.
The officials all recognize that the
general can no longer be of service
to the government after his recent
criticism of the character of the Gu

show appreciation of the situation
by presenting his resignation. This
will be the least difficult manner of
closing the incident. Should the gen
eral fail to resign, it is expected that
the Cuban government will either
dismiss him or request his recall by
this government.
