MOUNTING FOR
BAYARD STATUE
Will Be of BTandyWine Gran

$4SS0
CLEVELAND AT CEREMONIES

The Bayard Memorial Association is
determined to make the memorial
statue to the late Ambassador T. f.
Bayard one Of the handsomest of the
park memorials.
At the meeting yesterday afternoon
at the Farmers Mutual Fire Insurance
rooms No. 1873 Market street. the as
sociaticl awarded the contract for the
pedestal for the statue and the exedra
mountings to Stewart a Donohue, at
1850, that firm being the lowest bid
der.
The pedestal is to be several feet in
height. massive in appearance. and will
be composed Of Brandywine granite.
as will be the exedra surroundings Of
the monument.
Robert g. Hartman, treasurer of the
association. announced that sl,700 cash
was on hand for the mounting OF the
statue, and it was decided to raise the
SO. 100 necessary to complete the con.
tract by public subscription.
John S. Rossell. Samuel Bancroft.
Jr.. and Robert G. Hartman were APP
pointed a committee on arrangement
Of details for the mounting Of the
monument.
Cleveland to Be Invited
II was decided to invite ex-Presi-
dent Grover Cleveland. a friend Of the
late ambassador, to deliver the address
at the unwilling of the monument. and
a member Of the Bayard family win
unvei the statue at the ceremonies.
The statue itself was donated to the
association by an admirer of the late
ambassador. who is by the way a mem
Der Of the association. It win be erect
ed by arrangement with the Park Com,
mission I'm Rockford Park at the inter
section Of Shallcross avenue and Wood
lawn avenue, extended.
The statue arrived in Philadelphia
Saturday aboard the steamship Merton
from Liverpool, England. II came into
this country duty free as the work OF
an American artist and John Titus
deputy collector of customs, aided the
association materially in the matter
Of its entry.
A Question Of Nationality
An interesting question concerning
its admission duty free arose at the
/ last minute. The statue is the work OF
the sculptress, Ellie Stillman, an
American artist in London.
She began and finished the work
while unmarried, but since its COM
pletion has married an Englishman
by the name of Richie. The work ther
must be known as the work Of Ellie
Stillman Richie, and the question arose
as to whether her marriage did moi
make her a British subject and tho
work subject to duty the same as thai
Of any other foreign artist. After
some discussion it was decided that thu
sculptress was an American when sh'
designed the statue and therefore il
was an American production and NJ
duty was charged.
Statue Stored Till Spring
The statue will arrive in Wilmington
from Philadelphia within the mex
few days, and will be stored in tn

ing. until spring. by which time it il
