Points Already Selected.
There are more than 200 places and
points historically interesting that have
been selected by various societies and COM

points were located and marked during the
last presidential inauguration and during
the last national encampment of the Grand
Army of the Republi,. which was held in
Washington in 1902 for the benefit and m
terest of the many visitors in the city on
both of these ,sions.
The markers used on these occasions were
only temporary and some of them are stul

places should be marked permanently by
tablets of stone or metal was furnished by

to the Commissioners the surveyor of the
District stated that in making recent sur

PROTESTS ARE MADE AGAINST

ST. PETERSBURG March 1.-THE lower

the credentials of members. Protests were
submitted against the election Of the entire
