MIR. Bracket Will Arrive In the City
Today, Representing Treasury De-

Looking at the Sites.

Probably within the next few days
the site of the Government building in
Americas will be definitely determined
or at least a forecaste given to that end,
as the agent of the Treasury Depart
ment will be here this week to inspect
all the sites offered
The gentleman upon whom this duty
devolves is Mr.. Fred Bracket, and as
he has left Washington City for Geor-
gia already he will probably reach
Americas this morning,
In fact, it was stated yesterday that
he would be here today.
Full and thorough inspection will be
made of the several properties rendered
the Government as site for the post
office building. Location and sur
roundings will be carefully considered
ere final recommendation is made
the department,
Among the sites rendered is the prop
erty at the artesian corner, bounded by
Lee street, Lamar street, Windsor street
and an alley on the north side, and
most desirable withal, besides various
properties on Cotton avenue and on
Jackson street.
Mr.. Bracket will probably spend
two or three days in Americas looking
over the properties offered. He will be
a guest of The Windsor while here.
