Section g. providing that no license, tax,
nor charge of any kind whatever. shaii
be assessed against or collected of any
producer Of farm products, for the rlshs
to sell in any part of the State the pro

viding that nothing contained in the sec
ton should prevent a. city or town from re-
quiring compliance by such producers

place he substituted for certain places,
and Mr.. .Hatton accepted it.
Mr.. Keezell explained that there
would be no good accomplished by having

Mr.. Stuart moved TO substitute by in
cooperating the words of the present
statute.
There was considerable debate and dis
cussion between Messrs. HON, Stuart
Portlock and Hatton over the amend
ment offered by Mr.. Hatton.
The Hatton amendment was defeated

NEW HABLISTON BUILDING.
Work Upon the Structure at Seventh aud main
Begun

Mr. William G. West, the architect has
about completed the drawings for the re-
neWal of the HabiStOn building Inc
structure that will replace that which
was burned will be three stories high, IN
stead of four, as the other was. The ap-
pearance of the building as designed By
Mr. West is not very different from the
former. with the advantage in appear
ance belonging to the new. Work mas
already been begun, and will be pushed
as rapidly forward as the winter weather
will permit
Two stores will have homes in the build
ing. They are to be divided by wall
from top to bottonl-a dead wall, as 1t Is
called by tircmen.
1t is not likely that work on the new
Cathedral will begin before March It
will probably be May before the archl-
tects will have completed the drawings.
But the Cathedral will be by far the
handsomest house of worship, and Will
be an ornament to the city. as well as
a monument to the generosity of Mr.
Thomas f. Ryan and his love for his ma
tive State.
On Wednesday next bids will be opened
at the office of the Virginia Electrical
Railway and Development Company for
the construction Of an extensive ADDITION
to the plant of the company at the foot
OF Twelfth Street, and the extension OF
it's power canal.
The bids call for the completion of the
work by July LIST OF the present year
The improvements are estimated to cost
$500, Geo and will increase the total capaci-
ty of the plant to two and q half times
that OF the portion now in operation.
No real estate sales occurred yesterday
and none are advertised for to-day. We'd
nesday the following sales occurred. Two
stores and dwellings, Nos. 306 and Jos

Chairman Stuart strongly opposed the
amendment, urging that the General As
senlbly should be left tree to dea! with
that question. as circumstances In the
future would demand.
The committee had recommended that
the principal Office should be located In
Richmond, and it was unwise to place
any further inf'exible provision il, the
Constitution. He claimed that this was
the only provision that had ever been
written which absolutely prevented the
General Assembly from removing the OF
fee of the Board from Richmond.
