NEW BUSINESS HIGH SCHOOL.
Drawing Of Plans Awaits Views Of
Board of Education

Mr.. Paul Sleman and Mr.. Jones. repre-
senting the Business High School Alumni
called upon Commissioner mcfarland at
the District building this morning to ask
what steps would be taken by the District
Commissioners for the acquisition of a site
for the new Business High School and the
preparation of plans and specifications IN
der the following paragraph in the District
appropriation bill:
For the purchase of site for the con-
struction of a Business High School build
ing, $4,000. and for the preparation Of
plans and specifications for such building,
81, 800. or so much thereof as may be neces-
sary: in all, $77,50O. the cost of said build
ing not to exceed S175, 900"
Mr.. Ma Garland informed his callers tina t
the Commissioners, in accordance with their
custom, had already directed that the views
or the board Of education should be pro-
cured with regard TO the area within which
a Site for the new Business High School
should be sought, and that when the board
OF education had responded the Commits
sloners would determine in the light of the
boards suggestions the area within which
the District authorities will ask for sites.
The Commissioners will then ask for pro-
posals for site, and If a suitable one is
offered within the amount of the appropria-
ton II will be accepted forthwith
AS plans cannot be drawn until the char
acter and dimensions of the site are known
Commissioner Mcfarland said the Com.
m.ssioners had not determined how the
plans should be made, but that presume bly
they would arrange for a competition SINH
lar TO that for the municipal hospital plans
so as to secure the best thoughts of the
best architects. Personally, Commissioner
mcfarland was inclined to think that the
competition for the Business High School
should be limited TO architects residing
within the District of Columbia. Mr. Mac
tariand assured the representatives of the
Alumni Association that the Commissioners
would expedite the matter as much as pos
slp!e, realizing the great need for the build
ing, anu that no time should be lost

THE GIDDINGs SCHOOL.
Information Desired Regarding Item
in APPROXIMATION Bill.

The District Commissioners have received
a letter from w. c. Dodge relative to the
item Of 81 944 in the District appropriation
for the purchase Of part of lot g. In square
1876, between Sd and 4th streets and G
street and Virginia avenue southeast, for
the Giddings School.
Mr.. Dodge says there are a number of
points upon which the owners desire in
formation. He says they want to know
whether they will be required to furnish an
abstract of title. In 1887 the District pur-
chased of Thomas Scrvener lots and g.
In the same square. for the school site. and
at that time the owner furnished an abb
stract Of tide. which Shows that lots 4, 5.
6, Z, and have all passed together from
the original division in June 81 1875, down
to the sale by order Of the court in 1872
to Mr.. Scrivener. AS deciding that sale the
abstract is in the hands Of the Commission
ers, and although not mentioning lot 8, the
writer says, II shows the title perfect in
1887. Mr.. Scriyener died soon after and
by his will devised lots 4, 8 and to his
two daughters in common. In order to d.
vide the lots between them the daughters
united in deed OF the lots f. and to
Mr.. Walter 8. Dodge. who in turn decided
lot to one Of the daughters and lots
and to the other daughter, in accordance
with the division agreed upon by them.
In December, 1893, one daughter conveyed
lot to the present owners, Mr.. Sloan and
John NJ. Young. A brief examination OF
the records since the date of abstract is all
that Is required, the writer states, to show
the title as above stated. and the owners
ask that this be done and save the expense
OF an abstract. There was never any in
cumbrance OF any kind on the property
after 1t came into Mr. Scriveners posses
sion. The present owners reside at Will

ALFONSO MAY BE INSANE.
Acts OF Spanish King Alarm His
Mother and Friends.

A special to the Philadelphia Press from
MADRID says: Many rumors are prevalent
here that the eccentric behavior of Alfonso
Kill is causing in the royal household con-
Siderable anxiety for the future of the
young king.
IT Is said that after angerng the mill
tary authorities and antagonizing his min
listers, he Is now on strained terms with the
queen mother, whom, it is alleged, he has
repeatedly insuted
The kings attitude toward the queen
mother Is the most severely criticised part
Of his conduct, for he seems to have lost all
sense OF the respect due to her. and when in
any way crossed by her he is said to be-

The king will have it clearly understood
that his word is supreme and at the most
trltilng opposition to his whims he becomes
angry.
The most recent Of these scenes is said

BRIDGE CORNER STONE
LABOR MEN STILL INTERESTED
IN MEMORIAL STRUCTURE.
Will Carry Out Program Notwith-
standing Inaction Of Congress-
Notes of G. A. r. Encampment.

Notwithstanding congressional inactivity
in connection with the Memorial bridge,
local union workmen have determined to
go on with the program which they have
adopted and prepare and dedicate a corner
stone for the structure. This stone will be
of appropriate proportions and design. bear
inscription which will set forth the pur-
pose Of the bridge, and will probably be
placed on exhibition for several weeks be-
fore the forthcoming encampment Of the
G. A. R. The dedicatory ceremonies will
occur during that encampment.
This purpose was announced to Chairman
B. H. Warner of the citizens executive
committee the encampment by Presi-
dent James McHugh Of the local Journey
mems Stone Cut ters' ASSEMBLY Federation
of Labor, at conference held this morn
ing. Several weeks ago Mr. McHugh wrote
Mr.. Warner and asked that the local stone
cutters union be permitted to provide and
carve the corner stone for the Memorial
bridge
1t had performed the same service, said
the president of the union, for the Chesa-
peake and Ohio canal and the local division
of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, and de-
sired to signalize its continued interest In
public improvements by contributing to the
construction Of bridge which should typify
the compact union of the north and south.
Granted the Request.
When that letter came the officials of the
executive committee expressed the greatest
pleasure in granting the request. Then Con-
gress apparently put an end to the matter
by failing to provide for the corner stone
ceremonies
But Mr.. McHugh and his associates were
not discouraged. In their judgment Amer
lean workingmen are so deeply interested in
the memorial bridge that they would not
countenance an abandonment OF their part
in its construction. So the president Of the
assembly met Mr.. Warner this morning and
explained his plan to go on with the cary
ing of the stone, as though Congress had
made the appropriation desired. What will
be done with the stone has not yet been
well determined. 1t is very probable. how
ever. as has been already stated that it
will be placed on exhibition as soon as fin
ished, and then dedicated during the en-
campment of the G. A. K.
