MEMORIAL TO VOLUNTEERS.
Association Solicits Aid Of Commission
ers In Eurtherance of Project

A committee from the Survivors Associ-
alton of the District of Columbia Volunteers
of 1851 appeared before the District Com
missioners today to enlist their aid with
reference 70 the proposition to obtain from
Congress an appropriation for the purpose
of erecting monument in the District to
the memory of the volunteers.
Mr.. Frank Burrows, on behalf of the vol
unteers, stated that of the $500 men who
went into the service as District volunteers
1900 are still living. He said that from
February until April 20, 1851, the volun-
teers defended the national capital, and
that they were not mustered In until the
10th of April, although they had been on
duty for over two months prior to their
regular enlistment. Mr.. Burrows stated
that the volunteers served at the Inaugural
ton of President Lincoln. He declared,
further, that the regiment practically saved
the national capital, because If the confed-
crate flag had been hoisted over the White
House the foreign powers would have rec
ognized the confederacy. The volunteers,
he said, prevented the raising of the flag
over the Executive Mansion.
The survivors stated that they proposed
to bring the matter to the attention of Con-
gress, that monuments have been erected
in this city and all over the country to regi-

CAN'T COPY THE MAPS.
President Hqfen Declines to GiUe
Permission to BrOnT Resident.

When the Board of Estimate and Apportion-
ment meets on Friday, taxpayers of The Bronx
intend to make vigorous protest against the
alteration of the officially accepted maps of
sections Nos 30. 80 and 81 of the Annexed
District, as proposed by President Haffen. This
action will be the elimination of long series
of disputes between the president of the Bor-
ough of The Bronx and many of its residents.
Early last week Gerald c. Connor, a property
owner of fremont and Williamsbridge, applied
to MIR. Lewis engineer of the Board Of Esti-
mate for permission to make a copy of the
maps He was referred to Borough President
Haffen, who, according to Mr.. Connor, said
that copies might be made if marked mot OIL
cial." When Mr.. Connor, accompanied by a
draughtsman, appeared, he was sent from one
official to another, he says, finally receiving
from the borough president definite refusal to
allow him to copy the maps
