Kept Secret to the Last.

Until the hour when the treaty was
nobody outside of the persons named
knew anything about its provisions,
but a good many shrewd guesses we're
made, and so it was that some of the
Washington correspondents were en-
abled. by putting this and that to-
gether, to give their newspapers some
light on the subject before the day of
| the public announcement. 1t can be
said that the president knew, during
all the hours of the negotiations, that
provisions were going into the agree.
ment which would be certain to arouse
| hostility in congress.
Recently the story has been told of
the determination of the commission
ers of the District of Columbia to To-
cate a penal institution almost under
the shadow of Mount Vernon, the
home of George Washington and the
scene of his death. Great opposition
was aroused to the plan and protests
came from all over the United States.
The commissioners seemingly were
immovable from their position In the
matter, and the wonder was why they
were not willing to accept some other
site.
An explanation has come for the de-
termination of the ofic ials to erect the
institution near Mount Vernon 1t
seems now that the fine arts commits
sion, which has in hand the work OF
making a greater and a more beauti-
full Washington, recommended the Vir-
ginia location to the district commits
sioners and to the president The
work thus far done by the fine arts
commission has been so commendable
from every point of view that what 1t
had to say was listened to with the
greatest respect and with the belief
that its judgment probably was sound.
1t is now probable, however, that the
district commissioners will reconsider
their determination and that another
site much nearer the city OF Washing
ton than the one originally chosen VIII
be accepted
