building enterprises in the city. Still such
figures do not include a large number of
houses. 1t Is likely as soon as the condi-
lions In the market for building materials
improve somewhat, that the erection Of
houses will be revived and q good deal will
be done in that direction. In the mean
time the effect of the present conditions on
the rental market is regarded by dealers
as calculated to be decidedly favorable.
An old-Tme Building.
Extensive alterations and changes are be-
Ing made in the building at the northeast
corner of 18th and F streets, so that the
entire second floor will be available for the
uses of Bryan & Co., who occupy the cor
ner store In the course of this work, which
Is under the direction of Mr.. Frank H.
Jackson architect, it has been found that
the building is very old one. The con-
struction indicates that not only by the
thickness of the walls, but also the method
of laying the brick which is in Flemish
bond. The former street level of the
building is now some six or eight feet
above the present grade of 18th street. and
there is greater difference in the grade
on the F street front. For the most part
the underpinning Is modern work, but there
is a small section of the 18th street front
where the original stone foundation wall is
still to be seen.
ture which was erected in the year 1898 by
Bennett Fenwick and used shortly thereaf-
ter for hotel purposes. After an experience
of some sixteen years as hotel and then as
boarding house, the property was bought
by the Bank of the Metropolis when 1t was
organized in the year 1914. and there it's
business was conducted for number of
years. 1t was spared by the British when
they invaded the city in August, 1914,
through the pleadings Of a woman. who
lived in the vicinity. and the bank directors
through gratitude for her services voted her
500.
1t is the oldest known hotel building now
standing within the original limits of Wash
ington with the exception of the structure
at Pennsylvania avenue and 9th street
southeast. which was known in the early
years as the Eastern Branch Hetel.
Demand for Houses.
Mr.. Charles P. Stone of the company of
Stone & Fairfax. real estate brokers, in
speaking today of the condition Of the real
ty market said that during the past week
there had been sold. through his Office, the
unusual number of thirty-eght houses.
This is the highest record, he said that his
company had ever made. and he believed
that 1t was higher number than had ever
before been sold through single office in
one week In addition to the demand for
houses from people who want to buy, Mr..
Stone says that the season for rented
houses has already opened with rush. and
he has found 1t difficult to supply the inqui-
ries that have come to the office in regard
to houses for rent.

A familiar building in the residence sec
ton of the city. at least to those who have
lived here for the past quarter of century,
is the large double house on the south side
of NJ street between 9th and 10th streets
northwest. This was always known as the
Plant house. and took the name from its
owners. 1t Is built in the style more COM
mon some years ago than now, and has not
only a spacious interior, but the ground
about 1t affords space for lawns. In its
present form the property 10 evidently not
regarded as susceptible of producing the
highest rate Of revenue, for 1t is the in
tention to remove the old house. On this
site an apartment house Is to be erected.
The plan as drawn by Appleton p Clark,
jr.. architect, provides for flve-story struo-
ture. with a frontage of sixty-nine feet
and a depth Of 12O feet. There are to be
five fats on floor. each containing five
rooms and a bath. The exterior walls are
to be of stone, brick and terra Gotta Of a

WI TING FANG
AND FOOT BINDING
HUMOROUS SPEECH At A MEET
ING IN OPPOSITION TO THE
PRACTGCE-REFERs TO HIS WIFE.

II. f. WI Tingfang recently address,

ciety of Chinese and Foreigners devOt-
Cd TO combating the practice of bind
ing girls feet which is almost universal
in China. In seconding the resolu-
ton moved by Mrs. A. Little, in favor
Of renewed efforts to disseminate the
teachings of the society, II. e. WI said
he would have made the resolution
much more emphatic. He was an ar
cent opponent of binding, as a
horribly cruel and injurious practice.
He found many Chinese willing to agree
with what he said, but when 1T came to
the question of leaving their daughters
feet unbound, they did not dare to be
out of the fashion, as 1t was practically
impossible to find husband for a ma
tural-footed girl. Custom was so strong
that ,vunC niei could 10. imagine a
natural footed girl respectable. He had
tried his best to find a natural footed
girl as his wife but could not. He had
nothing to say against his wife, no
complaint to make, but was we'll satis-
fed with her Qaughter) and since the
marriage he had told her Of the anti
toot-binding movement and she was
heart and soul with it. She asked him

THE BOUNDARY DISPUTE.
United States Statement of the Case
Delivered to British Embassy.

WASHINGTON, d. c., May 1.-The
case of the United States which il 20
be laid before the Alaskan boundary
commission has been completed and
was today delivered at the British en-
bassy here. AT the same time the Brit
ish case was turned over in London to
the American embassy. The United
States case makes a volume of no less
than $50 page6 and its preparation n
the short time elapsed since the work
was placed in the hands of the United
States agents was almost without pre-
cedent in diplomatic work. The case
should have been delivered under the
terms of the treaty May 8, but that
happens to be Sunday and as a Brit
ish mail steamer sails from New York
tumorcoE on which the British an.bas-
sador was DESTROYS to dispatch the
document by an extra effort the case
was completed and turned over today.
A kings messenger will leave Wash
ington at once to connect with the
mail steamer.
The next step will be the preparation
of the counter cases, and there must be
delivered, one in Washington and one
in London, July next. All this Is pre-
paratory to the meeting of the joint
commission, which will take place in
Londop on September 8, on which da e
the printed argument of counsel must
be submitted.

gers and superintendent of the plants

ed day before yesterday, 1t will be
formally opened to-day. exactly one
month from the day it was begun.
