The American Bridge Company, at

C0bFE.DERACY
EACH SOUTHERN STATE TO HAVE
REPLICA OF MONUMENT IN
THEIR HONOR.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, April 14.-The
United Confederate Veterans commit
tee in charge Of the movement to
erect in each Southern State a memo
rial monument to the women OF the
confederacy are withdrawing restric
tions as to the erection of these mon.
uments and will report at the annual
reunion to beheld in Mobile in April
in favor of permitting the veterans OF
each State to place the monument at
the most advantageous point in the
State instead Of specifying that it &c
into the capitol building.
The general committee has notified
those in charge of the work in the
various States that a, bronze replica
eight feet high, of the design for the
monument submitted by Miss Belle
Kinney. of Nashville, Tenn, and ac.
cepted by the committee as the official
design, will cost each State 10000
that the money must be raised with.
out the aid of the women, as the mon,
ument is to be tribute from the men
to the women.
Miss Kinney, who is a native of
Nashville and but % years of age, is
student in the Chicago School of
Fine Arts. She has interpreted the
spirit of the southern women with an
insight that could only be had by ono
of them. Her group is dignified and
symbolic of the spirit which, even in
defeat, awards victor's branch to the
dying. The central figure, Fame, eX.
tends a supporting arm around the
shoulders OF the almost llfeless sol.
dier, and with her other hand places
a wreath on the head of the southern
woman, who, unmindful of the honor
being bestowed on her, is leaning for
ward to offer the palm of victory to
the exhausted soldier.
The members of the monument as.
ISOLATION committee are Gen. ]. R,
Grove, Sheffield, Ala; Hon. John H.
Rogers. Fort Smith, Ark; Gen. VII.
