TO LAY Stone FOR
GREAT CATHEDRAL
Tomorrow will be a Red-Letter Day
In the History OF the Pro-
teStant Diocese OF
Washington.
i(By special wire to the ARGUs.)

Washington, D. c., Sept. 2S-To-
morrow will be a red letter day in the
history of the Episcopal sDiocese OF
Washington. AT noon, with solemn
and impressive services, the corner
stone will be laid for the grand cathe-
dral to be erected on Mt. st. Adams.
The laying of the foundation stone
will be followed by a great open air
service, at which the Right Rev.. Ar
thur Foley Wilmington Ingram, Bishop
of London, will be the preacher. There
will be present also most of the Epis-
copal church in America and o 4,
600 members IF Brotherhood of st.
Andrew, whose international confer
ence has boon in session here this
week.
The proposed cathedral will be al
most as large as hat of ST. John the
Divine, now being erected in New
York, and larger than most of the
cathedrals of Europe. The accepted
design is pure decorated Gothic with a
touch of French feeling. The plans sug-
gest the cathedral at Canterbury and
the color will be similar to that of the
