{. NJ. SCHWAB HOME AGAIN
Does Not Deny Contract to Build
Ne1o Russian Ships.

Charles NJ Schwab arrived home from Europe
yesterday on the White Star steamship Baltic
To Tribune reporter at the Waldorf last night
Mr.. Schwab said: Il have been absent two
months and have had delightful time the only
unpleasant feature being the rough voyage
home l am as result. a little tired but shall
soon be rested"
concerning the result of his reported mission
abroad that Of obtaining a contract from the
Russian government for the rehabilitation Of its
navy. Mr. Schwab said: There is nothing that 1
may say that subject 1t should be obvious
that information relating to that matter must
come from the Russian government. 1t would
be highly improper for me to talk"
Mr. Schwab's manner was not that of a man
who had encountered a commercial rebuff or a
business disappointment II he failed to i'm
press the Russian Government with the SUI
periority of the Bethlehem brand Of battleship
he well concealed his chagrin. Asked when he
left st. Petersburg Mr. Schwab replied that
he quit the Russian capital four weeks ago,
since when he had been in London and in Paris.
When told of the attitude of the President on
the question of buying ships and supplies for
the Panama Canal construction in the cheapest
market. Mr.. schwab said that was news to
him. and he must have little time to think
it over before INDUCING in any comment AS
to a statement that steel rails can be made
for So ton. Mr.. Schwab said: ct wrote
TO Mr.. Frick several years ago. when I was
connected with the Carnegie interests that I
could make steel rails for S12 ton in a plant
L was then operating. Mr.. Fr1ck published the
letter and L presume it is on that statement that
the information now being circulated was
predicated."
Relative to the expansion OF the Bethlehem
plant, Mr.. Schwab said: 1T is now a year and
half since we have been able to make everything
mat enters INTO the construction of a battle
snip, including its equipment Of guns, and we
are still carrying forward the enlargement and
Improvement Oh the plant introducing the faci
tiles for turning out every article of the highest

monument at the entrance of Central Park at 7th-
and 110th-st 1t will be made of marble. with
a statue of Mr.. Green under a marble dome in the
centre At each side will stand marble column.
The whole will cost somewhat less than 100000. 1t
will not interfere with the roads, it was announced,
nor will it infringe the park ground.
The site chosen after frequent conferences
among Jacob A. Cantor, Charles r. Lamb and
Samuel Parsons, IT., landscape architect of the
Park Department. The association unanimously
approved the selection of the three The site was
chosen for two reasons 1t felt that the north
end of the park had been neglected in ornamen-
tation and it considered proper to place the
monument here because Mr. Green had done SO
much toward the development OF the upper portion
of the city and had been instrumental In the pur-
chase of large part of the northern end of the
park. Mr. Lamb is working on 4 drawing OF
