The needs of the town, Eddie said,

'I move, Mr. President" said he im-

that we use the material in the old one
for the new one and that we don't tear
down the old one until the new one is

smilingly queried Mr.. Tesnow.

PRESIDENT CONSULTED
ON ALBANY SCANDAL
Admits Situation Looks Bad-Polia
ticians Consider Proposal to
Smother Charges Against
State Senator Aids

NEW YORK, Feb. 12-President
Taft, sitting for an hour and a half
today in conference with Republlcan
state leaders, showed much concern IN
the latest scandal-the Conger-Allds
bribery at Albany-and departing CON
fided to intimates that 'the situation
looks very bad"
The president thus passively, at
least, waded into the troublous whirl-
pool of New York state Republican
politics, brought to an acute stage or
late by charges of bribery by one state
senator against another.
The conference was held at the New
York residence of Lloyd c. Griscom'
former ambassador to Italy, but re-
Gently elected president of the New
York Republican county committee,
succeeding Herbert Parsons.
Besides the president and Mr.. Girls
com. there were present: Timothy l..
woodruff, state chairman; Senator De-
pew, Governor Hughes, James w.
Wadsworth, speaker of the state as
sembly, and Otto Barnard.
Discussion centered almost solely on
the Aids Conger case, involving two
leading proposals.: Whether the party
should investigate to the limit, or, If
possible, smother, it.
The consensus of opinion appeared
TO be to probe to the bottom regardless
of results.
There had been a rumor that de-
mand had been made for the reslgna-
tion ofsState Chairman Woodruff Mr.
woodruff asked about this, said:
1--WE talked about nothing but the
Aids case. No call was made upon
me to resign and you can quote me as
saving so. / will not say that shall
conduct the next campaign, but l shall
be chairman until the next state con-

DEPART MENT STORE
EXPANDING RAPIDYa :
Big Firm on South Broadway Closes
Lease for Hollenbeck Prop

lion Dollars

]. G.. Bullock, general manager of
Bullocks department store, signed a
81, 100000 lease with Elizabeth Hollen-
beck and the trustees of the Hollenbeck
home for aged women, Friday evening,
for the use of the Hollenbeck building
in South Broadway for term of years.
According to the terms of the lease the
new building will be occupied by Bull
locks within ten months.
The signing of this lease marks q
record broken in the growth of a de-
partment store in the west. Founded
only three years ago, and in locality
which at that time was far out of the
business district, Bullock's now finds
it necessary to add 1900 feet of floor
space to the original store.
The Hollenbeck building, which is
situated just north of the present Bal
lock store, is now occupied by the Call
fornia Furniture company. This firm
has been given notice to find other
quarters as soon as its lease expires,
and on vacating, Bullock's will begin
installing fixtures, most of which are on
hand at present.
The addition of this building to the
department store will give it about
Psi 900 feet, or six acres of floor space.
1t is a siX-story structure, II feet wide
by 14o feet deep, ana It's addltlon VIII
make Bullocks one Of the largest de-
partment stores west of Chicago.
The present building occupied by
Bullocks was built for the firm three
years ago, and real estate brokers as
sured the owners at that time that it
would be years before block of ITS
size would be a paying investment, SO
far from the center of the shopping
district. 1t was a success from the be-
ginning, however, as the need of add
ing 71,00O feet of floor space shows.
The income from the property, which
will amount to $1,000000 at the eXpira-
ton of the lease, will go to the mainte-
nance of the Hollenbeck home for aged
women in Boyle Heights. The deal was
made through the firm Of E. w. Cason
& Co.

Give No Time for Extended Action
Upon Any of Its Recommendations.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-Congress
gave respectful attention to Presi-
dent Taft's message today, but there
weer comparatively few members who
were willing to concede the proba-
bility of favorable action at the Ires-

fact that the session will close March
4th.
The message was delivered to both
houses by Secretary Lata soon after
they convened at noon.
The reading of the message, which
was of unusual length, was at first
given close attention in both houses,
but gradually this afternoon ceased
on the part Of most of the members,
and those who remained in the cham
bers devoted themselves to printed
copies before them.
Practically all the time III polh
houses of Congress today was occu-
pied in the reading of President
Taft's message. In the Senate three
new Senators were sworn in. They
are Claude Swanson, of Virginia, who
succeeds the late John w. Daniel;
Joseph M. Terrell, Of Georgia, sue
cessor to the late Senator A. s. Clay,
and Lafayette Young, of Iowa, who
takes the seat made vacant by the
death of Senator J. P. Dolliver.
In the House the message com
manded the attention Of the members
to the exclusion of other business.
Both houses adjourned early until
noon tomorrow.
