FRATERNAL SPIRIT SHOWN.
Representative of Washington Build
ers, Addresses Baltimore Exchange.

The sixteenth annual dinner and meeting
for the election of officers of the Baltimore
Builders Exchange was held Tuesday
evening in the assembly hall of the Ma
sonic Temple, Baltimore. The association
is composed of practically all the firms and
individuals engaged in the building indus
try, and the meeting was largely attended
by the members, besides a great number Of
invited guests from out of the city.
The Master Builders Association. OF
Washington was represented by Mr.. Geo.
G. Hough, secretary of the association, who
was one of the principal speakers deliver
ing an address which was received with
interest and applause. He conveyed to the
Baltimore builders the congratulations or
his own association, expressed sympathy
for their recent misfortunes and assured
them that there was no disposition on the
part of the Washington builders to rush in
and build up the city DESTROYED by fire;
that the prevailing disposition of his
association was to act on the principle of
home trade, but that at the came time the
builders of Washington were ready to re-
spond in trying to save the city. They will
remain away, however, he added, until sent
for.
In speaking of the outlook in Washing
ton he stated that among many elements
entering into the success of the building
industry was the financial question, which
at present was very satisfactory and very
inviting to investors, and that there ap-
peared to be ample funds in Washington to
meet any present neeOS III Indt line. ne
financial and banking institutions are eau
tious, yet they are liberal and ready to CO.
operate with the public in connection with
the building industry
The next element entering into the condf-
lions was the optimistic view which had
been created, and which was taking hold
of the people. He said that there seemed
to be nothing to discourage investors, and
that there Is no apparent reason why the
present conditions of business generally
should not justify an outlay of funds Am
other element with which business people
had to contend, he said, is that of the labor
question, which at the present time in
Washington is in q quiet and satisfactory
condition The relationship between the
employer and the employe Is or very
friendly character, each being in the con-
fdence Of the other, and each working in
the interest of the other, SO that all clouds
of trouble have vanished and nothing but a
hopeful outlook is in view.
Mr.. John H. Short, president of the Bal
timore Builders Exchange, In his annual
report commented the slow progress
made in rebuilding the burned district In
Baltimore, but gave reasons why the pres
emit outlook is very much improved. The
exchange took action toward the estab-
lishment of permanent exhibition OF
building materials and the control of the
labor situation. A report cited the fact
that Notwithstanding the buildings which
have been erected by reason of the recent
fire. the aggregate cost of the buildings.for
the year Just closing showed total of at
least 81. 100000 short of the previous years

Kept Under Observation.

While playing with number of children
near his home in Tenleytown yesterday
afternoon, Benjamin Hurdle, eight years
old was struck in the right eye with nail
which had evidently been thrown by some
one He was taken to the Georgetown UNI
versity Hospital by his mother, where the
physicians, after making an examination.
found that the sight had been destroyed.
The child's parents reported the matter
to the police of the seventh precinct and
Policeman Blake, after making an invests
CATION, arrested Robert James, an eight
year-old colored boy. James was arraigned
before Judge Scott of the Juvenile Court
this afternoon on charge of assault and
battery. but he denied throwing any nails
at the Hurdle boy. Several witnesses, how
ever, testified TO the contrary, and ii de-
veloped from the evidence that the boys
were playing together.
Judge Scott was inclined to dispose of the
case by returning the James boy to the
custody of his mother, who promised to
punish him, but In view of the fact that he
denied the charge when il was clearly
proven against him, the court directed that
he should remain under the observation OF
the board of children's guardians for 6
period OF six months.

Completes Contest List.

A dispatch from Philadelphia last night
says: After another long day of confer
ences among party leaders, candidates ana
other persons on the matter of filling the
yacancy in the United States Senate,
caused by the death of Senator Quay, the
question tonight appears to be as far from
solution as it has been at any time since
the old state leader died The withdrawal
of George T. Oliver of Pittsburg, who had
been practically agreed upon yesterday,
has opened the whole subject, and poll
ticians from all over the state, who are
here taking part or watching the situa-
tion are at sea as to who will be selected
by State Chairman Boies Penrose, who
will name the man.
II. G. Prick Favors Knox.
Much interest was added to the situation
tonight, when 1t was announced by H. c.
Frick of Pittsburg. who arrived In the
city today that he came here In the inter-
est of the United States Attorney General.
Phlander c. Knox. Mr. Prick, in formally
launching Mr.. Knox's candidacy, said that
he thought the Attorney General would be
an excellent choice, and felt that the rank
and file of the party throughout the state
would look favorably upon his selection.
Former State Senator Finn, when seen
regarding Mr.. Knoxs candidacy, admitted
that he had met Mr.. Frick during the day,
and that the latter asked that Mr.. Knox
be considered a candidate.

considered. Mr. Frick also looked
upon as a candidate until he announced
last week that he did not want the place.

ity, that Durham and Penrose will make no
selection that is not satisfactory to VIII
liam Finn and the Allegheny county repub-
lican organization.

whom he accuses of treason in their failure
to actively support him for the gubernato-
rial nomination. Fifteen of the deposed
officials were delegates to the Springfield
convention The governor has divided the
crime of political treason into two classes,
but he has fixed the same punishment for
both. One class is described as 'officehold-
ers who as delegates failed to give the gov
ernor the support to which he was entitled
by reason of the honors confsrred upon
them. The other consists of ofdceholders
who were not delegates and who did not ae-
lively interest themselves In the governors
