THE REAL ISSUE.

This years cotton crop is var
iously estimated to be between
10000, 900 and 100000 bales,
and the annual production of corn
is something like 100000, 900
bushels; oats, SOO,OOO,O0O bush
els; wheat, 100000, 1000 bushels.
These crops form the basis of
national prosperity of which we
hear so much, but the necessity
of protecting the farmers who
produce all this wealth against
the exactions of the protected"
manufacturers has evidently not
yet dawned upon the minds of
our statesmen. Austin States

Washington, Feb. 24.-In the pres

people, including the president of the
United States, members of the cabinet
and of congress-, justices of the SUI
preme court, representatives of foreign
powers and others eminent in the life
of the nation, the cornerstone of the

The occasion was rendered notable
and interesting by addresses delivered
by President Roosevelt, Secretary OF
War Root and Major General S. B. M
Young, president of the war college
The site selected for the new building
is on the reservation of the Washing,
ton barracks. Today's ceremonies
marked the beginning of a project
which has been fostered by the presi-
dent, Secretary Root and others in
terested in the advancement and thor

structure, which is to be practically
unique, has been only just begun, the
plans contemplated by the war depart
ment and by congress include the con-
struction of an entirely new set of
buildings on the arsenal grounds.
Among other structures there will be
hospital, barracks, officers quarters
and an administration building, all to
be handsome and of the most approx
ed architectural design. The army

About 1000 troops, representing the

THE ROCKEFELLER INSTITUTE.
Institution viii Be Without a Peer In
the World.

New York, Feb. 23.-Dr. |. e. Holt,
secretary of the board of directors OF
the Rockefeller institute, has made
public the detailed plans of the pro-
Ject, so far as they have been deter.
mined. These plans embrace a scheme
for an institution of medical and path.
illogical research which, it is said, will
be without an equal in this country
and unexcelled in any country in the
world. The gifts of John d. Rookie
Teller to the institute, thus far aggre
eating $1,200,000, are considered only
as beginning, and the understanding
is that Mr. Rockefeller stands ready
to finance the institution for any
amount necessary to carry out the
work.
The institution will occupy four city
blocks between East river and Avenue
A and Sixtieth and Sixty-fourth streets
The present plans, according to the
announcement of DR.. Holt, call for the
immediate erection of a laboratory for
investigation in all departments of
medical research and the building of a
hospital in which special groups of
patients may be treated to develop
new methods for the treatment of dis.
ease. Popular lectures will also be
established.
DR.. Holt says that John d. Rockefel.
Ter, Jr., also is interested with his IA
Their, and the institution is intended
as a memorial to the elder Rockefel-
ler's grandson, John Mccormick, who
died year and halt ago. The gifts
of 81 200 900 were made by Mr.. Rookie.
Teller in 1901.
DR.. Holt, in his statement, reviews
the work of organizing the institution
and confirms the story that Professor
Simon Flexner, professor of pathology
in the University of Pennsylvania, has
been chosen director of the laboratory.
DR.. Flexner will begin his work at the
institute in July. He will spend the
greater part of his first year in Eu.
rope, during the construction of the
laboratory building in New York. This
building will be started so as to be
ready by October 1, 1904.

cIined tine Request-Says Protocol
Calls for so Days Time-Germany's
Reason Unknown.

Washington, Feb 23.-The German
government, through its representa-
tive, Baron Speck Won SternUerg, has
made request for the immediate pay
ment OF l. $500 which, it was stipu-
lated in the protocol signed ON Febru-
airy 13, should be paid within 80
days from that date, as a preliminary
to the raising OF the blockade against
the Venezuelan ports and agreement to
send the question of preferential treat
ment of the blockading nations to The
Hague for determination. Mr.. Bowen
declined to accede to the request, but
informed Baron Sternberg that as pro-
vided in the protocol, the money would
be paid to the German representative
at Caracas 80 days from February IS,
which would be on the 18th of March.
The reason that animated the Ger
man government in making the re-
quest is not disclosed here. The mat.
ter has special significance perhaps
from the fact that the ships taken by
the Germans during the blockade have
not yet been returned to Venezuela.
