GOVERNOR HIGGINS INsPECTs SITES
With Messrs. Bruce and Wadsworth Seeks
Place for Educational Building.

Albany, July 6.-Three sites in the imme-
diate vicinity Of the Capitol were inspected to-
day by Governor Higgins, Lieutenant Governor
Bruce and Speaker Wadsworth. trustees of
public buildings and members of the commission
created by the last session of the Legislature
to select site for the proposed new building of
the State Educational Department. In case any
OF the three sites are decidedNupo they be
obtained, the Governor said to-day, for an
amount well within the appropriation of the
100000 provided for the preliminary work in
connection with the building. After the
inspection Commissioner Draper, Of the State
Department Of Education, and State Architect
Helms, also members OF the commission, were
requested to prepare plans showing the floor
space and the approximate size of the building
required and TO report 70 the commission not
later than July 20. General Albert Van Der
Veer, OF the State Board Of Regents. is the sixth
member of the site commission.
Governor Higgins said that within the next
twenty-fOur hours the trustees would advertise
for bids for the work of removing about 5000
tons OF granite from the tower directly over the
main entrance to the Capitol. II is thought that
the removal of this stone will relieve the Assem-
bly, staircase, which has been closed to the pub
lie since early in the year owing TO its alleged
dangerous condition.
Lieutenant Governor Bruce and Speaker
WadsWorth authorized respectively to de-
ternine on floor coverings for the Senate and
Assembly chambers.

widow of Professor Ward. who was killed in
Buffalo on Wednesday. arrived in this city this

A SOCIALIST SCHOOL IN GERMANY.

Berlin July 6-The executive committee of the
Socialist party has announced its intention to
establish a partisan war school, in the autumn
with the object Of preparing Socialist youth for
public life by lectures on national economy
socialism, law history science, literature and
debating exercises. The "Vorwarts," organ
of the party, says that no expense should
be spared to carry out the plan of thus creating
a body OF we'll informed agents, adding that,
ing to the Reichstag's decision to pay members
of the Reichstag for their services, it is not
necessary for the Socialists to collect money to
nav, their own members, as has hitherto been
done thus saving $4,000 annually for the par
4isan war school"
