M'CLAVE 6 BROOKS PLANT
Extensive Buildings Now Under Way
on the Old Nay Aug Park Tract
in Pine Brook.

Construction work is we'll under way
on the new 100000 plant of the McClave
& Brooks company, adjacent to Poplar
street, on the tract which was formerly
Nay Aug grove.
When completed it will be one of the
most extensive manufacturing plants in
the city.
Following are the main buildings and
their dimensions: Machine shops. 160x
$50; Office building, 42x52; storehouse,
10OX1S0; barn, 30x40; oil and asphaltum
storehouse, EXT; blacksmith shop, COX
40: storage building for scrap iron, pig
iron, sand, wood and coal, 170x176; en-
gine and boiler house, 36x7O;> pattern
shop, 4OX7O; pattern storehouse, 4Ox70;
cupolas, 4OX5O.
With the exception of the cupolas and
storerooms, the buildings will be one
story in heighth. They are being con-
structed of steel framing and CORFU
gated iron for the most part, and are
most modern in every respect.
The buildings were designed by Ed
ward Langley, architect, whose offices
are in the Connell building.
A bridge has been constructed across
the Lackawanna river at Poplar street
to make the works approachable from
Capouse avenue and the Delaware and
Hudson railroad. The Ontario and
Western railroad skirts the western
end of the plant.
McClave & Brooks deal principally in
CRATES and blowers, the inventions of
Mr.. McClave. Their business has grown
so rapidly that the present compara-
lively new plant on Seventh street is
too small to meet the demands of their
trade. In Il very few years this in
dustry has grown to proportions which
make it one of the leading manufac-
turing establishments of the city.

This quartet OF prominent baseball en-
thusiasts will decide the winners Of the
several season tickets offered by The
Times.
No representative Of this paper will

1t will be entirely in the hands of the
committee who will take full possession
of the thousands of votes at noon tomor-

The Washington times. (Washington [D.C.]) 1901-1902, 1902-04-22

The Morning Times offers the fol-
lowing prizes to those who are lucky
enough to estimate the nearest to
the number of paid admissions on
the day of the opening championship
game with Boston. The date of the
opening game is April 20, but if for
any cause the game should not be
played on that date the paid attend
ance of the first championship game
in this city will be taken as the basis
of deciding the winners.
To the person making the nearest esti-
mate to the actual number of paid ad-
missions at the American League ball
park, on the date of the opening game of
the season, The Morning Times will give
season book with reserved seat coupon
attached, good for two persons.
To the person making the next best
estimate season book good for one
person to the grounds and grandstand.
To the person making the third best
estimate pass for the first thirty games
to the grounds and grandstand.
To the person making the fourth best
estimate season pass, good for admis-
sion to the bleachers.
The conditions of the contest shall
be rs follows:
All estimates must be made on con-
pons cut from The Morning Times.
This is necessary, as in order to ia
ciIitate keeping track of the esti-
mates they must be on some sort of
uniform blank. Otherwise the bust
ness of sorting them would be too
slow. tedious, and difficult.
Employees of this paper will not be
allowed to compete.
In case any two prize-winning csti-
mates are Il tie the one bearing the
earlier date will get the award.
Ne estimate will be received after
~ o'clock noon, April %.
All estimates must be mailed to the
Baseball Editor of The Times
Great care should be taken to make
all figures very distinctly and to use
great care in writing the name and
address plainly, so as to save both
time and trouble in determining the
prize winners.
There will be no limit to the num-
Der of times any one person can vote.

Two more days only remain in which
to win one of the season passes to the
baseball games to be played in Washing
ton, offered by The Times to those who
guess the exact number of paid admis-
sions to the first championship game to
be played with Boston tomorrow.
Two days isn't very much time to
record a guess that may bring to you
seasons pass.
If YOU haven't already guessed
once or twice, you had better get in
line with the fifty or more thousands
of persons who have recorded their
ideas of the size of the crowd at the
game tomorrow.
Remember, you can guess as many
times as you want to-there's absolute
" no limit on the number of guesses that
any one person may send in.
One Times reader who is after one
of those free passes sent in $50
guesses in one envelope yesterday
another envelope contained over 200
guesses.
Bear in mind, no guesses will be re-
ceived after IL o'clock nooh tomor-
row.
Don't delay moment. Cut out
your coupons this very moment and
send them to the Baseball Editor of
The Times. The passes haven't been
won vet. and won't be until tomor-
row noon.
There's nothing nicer to carry in
ones pocket in the summer time than
season pass to the ball games -
one of those passes that take you
into the grounds and give you a seat
beneath the shelter of the grand
stand roof
If you haven't guessed yet, do so at
once.
If you have guessed, guess again.
In fact, guess many times again.
You can't guess after tomorrow noon
under any circumstances.
On April 30 last year, when Wash
ington opened with Baltimore. the
paid admissions were nearly ten
thousand. This will aid the fans
somewhat in figuring the attendance
on the opening day this year.

Cut Fitz's Lip.
Once Corbett's left landed on Fitz's lip
and left its impression there. Another

Corbett was trifle slower in the sec

ever and Bob had all he could do to land
Fitzsimmons, however. got home a few
stiff punches in the wind and Corbett
quickly clinched. But at the breaking he
tipped Bob on the ear with left and
pummeled him in the ribs. Fitzsimmons
sidestepped and puzzled Jim with a few
feints.
Last Round Clever.
The last round was just as diverting.
Corbett moved right and left with uner-
ring precision and showed his glove into
Fitz's face and mouth. but Bob, with his
long reach. laid his mitt on Jim's jaw and
put his right several times In the body
In the final minute OF the round the two
went at it in grueling fashion. They
were SO quick that it was difficult task
to keep track of all the blows. Corbett

In the fourth inning Carey, the first

basketball has been advertised to be play
ed on Tuesday by the Light Infantry and
the Corcorans, special meeting of the
Corps was held tonight for the purpose
of taking action on the unauthorized
use of the name of the Corps. which is an
incorporated body. At this meeting it
was unanimously decided that participa-
ton in these games would be unauthorized

Resolved, That any member of the
Corps participating in the games adver-
tised under name of Corcoran shall be ex-
PEELED from the Corps without further
