The above is al exact reproduction
of the remarks made by G. D. Van
Duzer at the organization. He has
been falsely represented by Herman
Zadig, a stock broker on Montgomery
street, who sent to the Virginia iCty

delivered by Mr.. VanDuZer. The above
is the speech to which Zadig take,
exception. The truth is that Mr. Van
Duzer turned the calcium light Of pub

are today casting discredit upon the
great COmstock Mr. VanDuZer has
been noted for his loyalty to the min.
ing and laboring interests of Nevada

MR.. HEWITT'S PLAN
TO ENLARGE CAPITOL
Wanted Another Story for
Library Of Congress.

If the plans OF Abram S. Hewitt, who
died in New York yesterday, had been
adopted by Congress and carried into ex-
ecution. Washington would not now
boast of its magnificent Library of Con
gress, but it would have possessed a
more preteutious Capitol building than
the present structure 1t was MT Hew-
tits idea, and one which he dwelt upon
whenever there was occasion for discuss
ing the subject. that the National Capitol
building Is iHharmonious in design and
out Of proportion from an architectural
standpoint When the matter of building
d new structure 10 house the Library of
Congress was first considered. Mr.. Hewitt
advanced the suggestion that the library
should remain IN the Capitol building.
His suggestion was that another story
should be added to the center of the
structure in order to harmonic It with
the wings which were added to the origi-
nal building IN the new story he pro
posed to place the Library of Congress.
He always said that the Capitol had too
much OF a "squaJty." datJened-out ap-
pcaraDce, with insufficient elevation in
the center. and the dome too high for the
extension Of the Senate and House wings.
Mr.. Hewitt became so much interested in
the subject that it grew 10 be a sort Of
hobby with him. and at his own expense
he had drafted extensive plans showing
the improved appearance Of the Capitol
by the adoption of his suggestion.
