Temporary Structure at Once.
Another plan is to rent the large vacant
square bounded by Jefferson, Main. Madi-
son and Cary Streets and erect thereon
a temporary convention hall to cost some
thing like $1,000.
This building could be used BY the Con-
federatc Veterans, the Southern Baptist
Convention and the Epworth League OF.

The fourth plan suggested Is to utilize
the Horse Show Building at tho New
Reservoir, converting, the ring and walk
ways into an orchestra.
1t Is said that the building can be ar
ranged to seat 5000 people which would
be as large as any building mat could
be erected temporarily.
An objection raised to the Horse Show
g Building Is It's distance from the center
OF tho city and the difficulty OF reaching
1t by the street cars. especially during
wet weather.
Mr.. Northrup. one OF the receivers OF
the Passenger and Power Company, which
operates the street railway. said yester-,
day that the time was too distant for
him to state positively what his COM
pany would do in the way OF improving
the Horse Show Building for conven-
ton. He said, however, that he felt sure
/ that the company would net In such =
way as would be agreeable to the peo7lc
OF Richmond and those having the con-
vention In charge.
For Permanent Hall.
Judge George l.. Christian. who vas
chairman OF tts committee In charge Of
the last Confederate Reunion held In

in favor OF a permanent coa"c 1tion hall.
Judge Christian said:

nent convention hall-somc place which
Is large cough to hold great numbers Of
people. I nm not II favor Of a ten.

when the last Confedetate Eel,nion
was held hero, the temporary building
cost $1,000 and se,Led 5000. There were
10000 Veterans and Sons or Vetrrens In
the city but -no bull i7s Was large
