The "White House" Stables.
or of The Evening Star:

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
1t was stated in The Star of Wednesday
that 1.-The President has not requested any
one to secure an appropriation for new
stables for the White House. and the under
standing for a good while has been that
the President will not permit a request of
that kind now. in view of the comment that
country"
With all due respect for the high and dig
niied position temporarily filled by the
present incumbent of the presidential office,
l beg to submit that he is not the only
person who is concerned in. or whose wishes
should be consulted, in regard to this par
ticular point. He does not own the prop
erty in question He is only a tenant for
the time being. 1t belongs to the people OF
the United States. for whom the two houses
of Congress act as agents.
Occupying its present position in the pub
lie park. where 1t never should have been
placed the stable in question is an eye sore
and a nuisance. Presumably the President
need not often visit the stables. 1t there
fore can make little difference to him per-
sonally where 1t is located In its relation
to the public 1t is another matter entirely.
1t stands opposite the Corcoran Gallery,
dedicated to art" one of the finest build
ings of it's class to be found anywhere in
the world. In a little while the patriotic
Daughters of the American Revolution will
erect an imposing building on their ground
fronting 18th street, south of the gallery.
Later on the Columbian University Will
handsomely and appropriately improve the
ground owned by ii by erecting a group of
imposing buildings, for educational pur-
poses. little further south. With these
improvements made. with the driveway now
completed on the river front and the pub
lie park lately redeemed from the Potomac
flats still further improved. 18th street will
soon become and indeed Is now, i'm
portant and much travelled thoroughfare.
Every consideration of proprety, there
fore, requires that the stable buildings and
their unsightly attachments should be re-
moved without delay from the site they
now occupy in the public park and placed
in less conspicuous locality, whether the
President personally desires a change or
not, and without regard to the comments
that may be made upon the subject in
different parts of the country. 1t is pub
lic not a personal or private matter.

Burton Harrison,s Philanthropy.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Will you kindly allow me space in your
paper to say a few words of appreciation
of Mr.. Burton n. Harrison's friendly atti-
tude toward the advancement of the colored
people of the south, as shown by his en-
enlargement of Jennie Dean, the founder
and promoter of the Manassas Industrial
School for Colored Youth. now in success
full operation mainly through her efforts.
In the winter of 1S94-1S95 Jennie Dean was
collecting for her school in New York city,
and among others, called on Mr.. and Mrs.
Burton N. Harrison to solicit their friend
ship and aid in her work. which was at
once heartily and substantially extended.
Jennie Deans family had been slaves in
the locality where Mrs Harrison. formerly
Constance Carey, had reigned as a belle.
Gen. and Lady Harrison" Jennie Dean
often says in her quaint way, ARE among
the best friends my people have. Through
Mrs. Harrison consenting to be my treas
urer in New York city was enabled to col
lect four or five thousand dollars each WIN
ter for several years for the Manassas
school Gen. Harrison was as much inter-
ested in the work as Mrs. Harrison, and
/ could not have done well in New York
If they had not stood by me as they did"
Miss Dean is now in Boston and vicinity
collecting for her school, and during her alb
sence 1t seems duty to pay the tribute
she would wish paid at this time to this
kindly gentleman. The fact OF his having
been Jefferson Davis secretary during the
confederacy did not lessen the warmth of
his heart for the poor and needy or dim his
in which he lived.

Post Office Bill Resumed.

When Mr.. Hepburn concluded the read
ing of the bill for the consideration Of COM
mittee amendments was proceeded with.
for Notwithstanding the bill had been I'M
der consideration the better part of two
days only four lines of II had been read
up to this time.
In response to a request from Mr.. Pat
terson, Mr.. Penrose explained the provision
approprating 81. 100000 for the purchase of
the Pennsylvania railroad site for post
office In New York, saying that an excep
tional opportunity was presented to secure
very desirable site and that the build
ing was greatly needed He said that the
land was worth more than IL was proposed
to pay for 1t.
fact that New York city had post office
building costing 5000, 900 or 5000, 600 and
that there was a provision in the bill for
rental at the rate of 500 600 year for twen-
ty-fve years for another location II struck
him that the plums were being crowded too
closely In one city. He asked for an ex-
PLANTATION of the relationship of the pro-
posed purchase to the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company and the New York Central
Company.
Mr.. Fairbanks said that the post office
building at the lower end of the city was
entirely inadequate to the conduct of the
postal business in New York, and Mr.. PEN
rose said that $4,000 a year would be saved
In the carriage of mails II the proposed
building on 31st street should be erected
He also said that the title conveyed by the
Pennsylvania Company would cover only
the surface of the ground, the company
retaining control below the surface for its
own purposes.
The further consideration of the amend
ment was postponed until today.
The Senate at $40 pm. went into eXecu-
tive session and at 5:15 adjourned.
