CIVIC MUSEUM FOR GREEN MEMORIAL
Would Fittingly Perpetuate Idea of Life
Work of Dead Man, 1t Is Asserted

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Among the various suggestions made for
memorial TO the late Andrew II. Green that for
civic museum is by far the most important and
valuable The superb Musee Carnavalet of Paris
Is rightly regarded OF the most interesting
and most valuable of the many rich museums OF
that beautiful city. That il is housed In fine old
mansion of considerable historic interest is an
added advantage. which gives II interest apart
from the wealth of it's contents. That Paris itself
has had "A marvellous history and the materials
for illustrating II abundant and OF the highest
intrinsic worth IS another fortunate circumstances
but the chief lesson this great museum teaches is
the value OF municipal collections illustrating
municipal growth
The Musee Carnavaet is the most important Of
the civic museums but It IS the only one of the
kind Paris Possesses another museum which some
what approaches It in purpose in the Musee Gal
hera which is housed I'm the very beautiful build
ing erected from funds bequeathed by the Duchess
de Gallera. 1t contains collections of tapestries
marbles and other works Of art which are the prop
erty OF the city of Paris and which have been
acquired either by gift or purchase. 1t is there
fore, quite distinct from the Musee Carnavalet
HHiCh is historical IN scope ana which illustrates
and perpetuates the history Of Paris from the
earliest times 10 the present day.
The Guildhall Of London approaches the charac-
ter or civic museum in many respects. and its
illustrate. in very fine manner. the civic growth
6s he mg1rGP4hs In addition TO library It's
chiefly nnds within the city walls. The museum
cudes many curious and interesting mementos OF
past London life. The ROsgarten Museum, OF Con-
stance, in Switzerland is another civic museum of
much local interest and value.
The significance of such memorial to Mr.. Green
must be very apparent The later years of his life
We're eonsecrated 10 the development OF the metro
politan idea for the communities now forming the
city OF New-York The realization of that idea
forms his own greatest monument TO posterity and
II would seem impossible to devise more hitting
memorial 10 this remarkable and most useful citf-
zen. The communities which now form the city
OF New-York would doubtless all have come to-
gether IN time. but. as the leader IN this move
ment Mr.. Green became truly the father" of the
greatest city IN the new world. and museum
whose contents were concerned with that city.
which would illustrate it's life growth and history
would surely be his most appropriate monument.
The materials for such a museum exist in album

can say that the committee OF which have the
honor 10 be secretary has borrowed the ideas OF
any other association. We were organized a. Fl
meeting held in the Office Of j. Pierpon. Morgan
In January. Bishop Potter is the chairman and
Mr.. Morgan the treasurer. Other prominent

General Alexander :. Webb. DR.. Charles Cuth-
bert Hall. J. Edward Simmons and Morris X

We would erect a monument TO good citizenship
"a beautiful gate at the Eighth-ave. entrance OF
Central Park perhaps. In this gate plan 10
have eighteen inches for statues-nine for men
who dead and nine to remain untitled until
men who still living for the public good have

the names being considered for the nine inches

fuence Of Bishop Potter, Archbishop Farley
and other church leaders to have sermons on
great citizenship in every pulpit in the city
We will follow this with a public dinner. to
which leaders I'm every branch OF civic activity
will be invited.
There may be room for two memorial or
Plantations" continued Mr.. Iebarcn, but II
would probably be difficult for to find a com
mon ground The scope Of our idea is much the
larger. and we can only ask the other associa-
ton TO join with us"
