RESOLUTION is ADOPTED
Civic and Patriotic Bodies Are Ask
ed to Give Aid.
MEETING TO BE HELD FRIDAY
Definite and Detailed Plans for Rails
ing $25o,ooo Will Be Made at
That Time

A campaign to raise funds for the erec-
ton of the proposed George Washington
Memorial Convention Hall will be begun
in Washington with all the vigor and en-
thusiasm of the trade and civic bodies
behind it. At meeting of the special
citizens committee. appointed last spring
at the request of the George Washington
Memorial Association, held today at the
American Security and Trust Company.
a resolution was adopted calling on the
Chamber of Commerce, the Board OF
Trade and other civic and patriotic bodies
of Washington to cooperate with the
committee in the canvass for funds to
erect the convention hall.
This resolution, it is expected, will be
taken up at the meetings of the various
bodies to which it refers. and the men,
bers Of the committee have no doubt that
they will all give the project their hearty
support.
To Arrange Details.
The special committee will meet again
Friday afternoon at 330 o'clock, when 1t
expects to make definite and detailed
plans for the canvass Of the city for the
necessary $25O,O0O. which has been fixed
as washington's share of the $2.5OO.OO0
to be raised by the George Washington
Memorial Association throughout the
country. AS soon as these plans have
been perfected the actual work OF col
lecting the money and pledges Will be
begun and carried through as rapidly as
Mrs. Henry F. Dimock of New York,
president of the George Washington
Memorial Association. has pledged her
self and the association to raise the
F1~, %l,4
convention hall. Already she has re-
ceived promises OF large sums for the
project from well known fnanciers of
New York and other large cities, pro-
vided Washington will do it's share.
Enthusiasm Is Shown.
At the meeting today were w. V. Cox.
chairman of the committee; Charles j.
Bell, w. D. Hoover. Henry B. F. Mac
farland, w. F. GUIDE, Henry Blair and
Granville NJ. Hunt. All of them spoke
enthusiastically in favor of the project
declaring they believed this was Wash
ington's chance. to obtain valuable
asset In a convention han fitted to house
the largest national and International
conventions which may be held in this
country. In their opinion the matter
overshadows all other projects at present
and they will urge the trade bodies and
raising the necessary funds for the con-
vention hall their principal work during
the coming weeks.
The special committee was appointed
last summer to consider the plan sub
mitted by Mrs. Dimock, and to endeavor
to have the subscribers to the fund for
the auditorium. which was planned soon
after the last inauguration, transfer their
subscriptions to the George Washington
Memorial project. Already the committee
has succeeded in having about $4,000 OF
these contributions transferred to the new
project.

U. S. AWARDED $1,000;
!. HELD over FORTY YEARS
Sum Is Proceeds of Sale of
Horses and Mules Taken
During Civil War.

Because no claimant has appeared to
demand a fund of 200 which has been
on deposit with the assistant treasurer Of
the United States for more than forty
years Chief Justice Clabaugh of the Dis
trict Supreme Court. at the request OF
United States Attorney Wilson, today
condemned the fund and directed the
assistant treasurer to cover it into the
general fund in the Treasury to the credit
of the United States.
In 1868 the United States steamers Lex
ington, Robb and Silver Lake, while
cruising in the upper Tennessee river un-
der command of Lieut.. Commander Fitch
captured twenty-three horses and mules
belonging to individuals supposed to be
supporting the Confederacy. The ami
mails were sold and the proceeds. by order
of Admiral Porter, were deposited at Gin
cinnati.

Proceedings in 1869.


In 1869 the United States began pro-
ceedings in the District court to declare
the proceeds forfeited to the United
States as a lawful prize of war. The
District Supreme Court decree the for
feiture, but held that the officers and
crews. of the three vessels We're entitled
to share in the proceeds as eaptors The
court directed the money held by the as
sistant treasurer at Washington subject
to its further order.
No officer or seaman put forward any
claim to the money, and United States
Attorney Wilson today. reopening the old
case, flied forty-one years ago, secured
the order making the fund d part of the
governments surplus.
An interesting feature of the case is
that the conduct of the original proceed
ings was in the hands OF Nathaniel VII
son. then an assistant United States at
