Architectural Club
FavorS Mcmillan Plan

The Washington Architectural Club
has Endorsed the Mcmillan plan for the
proposed Lincoln Memorial. and this
may go a long way in settling the
much vexed question as to where the
memorial shall stand and what 1t
shall be.
Senator Mcmillan favored the erection
Of large marble portico, which should
mark the western termination of the
Mall. Opposed to this is the Mccall
plan, headed by the Representative OF
that name. Mccall favors a structure
adjoining the Union Station. and form
ing sort of approach to that building.
Representative Lafean wishes a Lincoln
memorial to take the form Of a highway
from Washington to Gettysburg.
1t was urged at a meeting of the
Architectural Club last night by Bed
ford Brown, son of Glenn Brown, and
chairman of the civic Improvement conf
mIttee OF the club. that the Mcmillan
plan Is in accord with the original plan
OF city enlargement made by Major
L'Enfant.
This plan contemplates the extension
of the improvement Of the Mall all the
way to the Capitol where the compile
ton OF the Grant Memorial will be a
noteworthy feature.

INSPECTION BUREAU
Charges Railroad Influence
Is Used in Behalf of In
competent Inspectors.

Charging that efforts .re being
made to appoint a lot Of incompetent
men as boiler inspectors under the
new locomotive boiler inspection law,
II. S. Jeffrey. of this city. head of the
Jeffery Correspondence Schools, is out
in a long protest. He has issued a
statement in which he charges that
the railroads are dominating the new
bureau and says an investigation at
the band of Congress may result. Mr.
Jeffery says he is special legislative
representative Of most all organiza-
lions of railroad employees"
In his statement. Mr.. Jeffery says:
Senators and Representatives alike
are troubled with complaints from their
constituents that there Is something
wrong with the newly created bureau.
1t resulted from the civil service exami-
nation held on June IS and :. Hundreds
constructing, repairing, testing and in
speeding boilers were debarred because
of not having worked for a rSIroad
within two years before the date Of fl
ing their application papers, while other
men who have little or no knowledge
of a boiIer were made eligible for ex-
animation and appointed because of be-
ing in railroad service.
The advocates of the legislation are
most determined that incompetent men
shall not be appointed as district in
spectors, and to this end the rank and
file of railroad employees under the
leadership of II. S. Jeffery have practi-
cally formed a large private detective
agency. Reports by the hundreds of
the character. capabilities. habits, and
career of each candidate for position of
district inspector are being sent to
Washington for the purpose Of prevent
ing the appointment of those who are
incompetent, and who are seeking a
soft snap.
