LEE STATUE COMMITTEE REPORTS
Recommends $4,000 for the One to
60 in Statuary Hail.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
RICHMOND, Va, April 2S.-The special
joint legislative committee constituted some
time ago to inquire and report as to the
cost of statue of General Robert E. Lee,
to be placed in Statuary Hall, in Washing
ton, today made It's report, recommending
the presentation at the same time of a
bronze portrait statue of Lee and a bronze
replica of the Houdon statue of Washing
ton in the state capitol Accompanying the
report of the committee, which is signed
by all the members, is a bill carrying the
recommendation into effect and appropri-
ating S17, coo for the purpose. A joint Iegis-
lative commission of ten members-ive on
the part of each house|iS provided for.
1t is a rather remarkable fact that the
state of Virginia has not full-length erect
statue of Lee. and that there is but one in
existence, that one being in New Orleans.
The Lee statue to be cast for Statuary Hall
is to be designed by Edward V. Valentine,
the well-known Virginia sculptor who made
the recumbent statue in the Lee mausoleum
at Lexington. He also possesses the exact
dimensions of Lee, and will make the statue
for the state from the recumbent figure
and the dimensions Of the dead soldier
made by the sculptor in life. This statue
will cost $4,000. The other $1,000 of the
appropriation is to be used to provide the
replica of the HOudon statue of Washing
ton. 1t Is estimated that it will be two or
three years before the statues are ready
for delivery to the national government.
