Outgrowth of the Plans.

The plans of the park commission were
made after consulting those government
officials in the District who had charge of
improvements and these officials have very
naturally since given the report their
hearty support, so that the Secretary of
War, the Attorney General the Secretary
of the Treasury, the Secretary of Agricul-
ture and the supervising architect and the
secretary of the Smithsonian Institution
have all worked in harmony with the plan
as far as they have had anything to do
with it. One of the first developments un-
der these plans was Senator Cullom's prop
osition for a memorial to Abraham Lincoln
and legislation was enacted by which a
commission has been appointed to obtain
plans for such a memorial, and these plans
will be prepared during the coming recess.
Another Of these projects is the reclama-
ton of the Anacostia flats, and to begin
that work S1500o0 has been appropriated
for dredging between the mouth of the
river and the navy yard bridge. 1t was
found that the title to the land involved in
these flats is uncertain, and an appropria-
ton was made for a survey and report en-
the ownership of these flats.
The municipal building, to be located on
the south side of the avenue, was also one
of the projects embraced in the report of
the commission, and while the location is
not the one selected by the commission as
of the most Importance, yet 1t falls in with
it's general scheme.

The Grant memorial also comes into the
scheme of the park commission, with a
location on the present site of the botani-
cal gardens. The plans for this memorial
will go back to the sculptor, with the rec
ommendation of the judges that new de-
