PRESIDENT REQUESTED
TO APPROVE AWARD
Delegation Visits White House to Ask
that Consent Be Given to Capitol
Grounds Condemnation.

The President has under consideration
a. appeal to approve the award of S,304.'
900 made by a condemnation committee
for the property for the extension of the
park I'm the Capitol grounds.
a delegation of attorneys, reresentins
the property owners, visited the Presi.
dent yesterday and called attention Il
the embarrassment caused to the owners
by the governments failure to approve
the award OF the condemnation commits
sion.
In the delegation were Stanton c.
Pelle, William c. Sullivan, and Georg,
Francis Williams. They said that the
condemnation of the property had caused
DEPRECIATION in rents, and that they had
been losing money because they were
unable either to sell or to rent their
property.
The property in question is bounded on
the north by Massachusetts Avenue and
Streets, on the east by Second Street, and
on the west by Arthur Place. New Jersey
Avenue. and North Capitol Street
A committee of condemnation fixed the
price for the property at S3.204. 435. and
the Department of Justice entered its
approval on March of this year. The
President on June % approved the sundry
civil bill. which carried an appropriation
of S2,S23,97 IS for the purchase of the
property.
This sum, together with the balance un-
expended from previous appropriations,
would have met the award price. Under
the terms of the law authorizing the i'm
provement, however. any awards for the
purchase of property must be specifically
approved by the President.

Office detectives is shown in the arrest
in San Francisco of Joseph Ellis. alias

alias Fred Boley, wanted in Pittsburgh
on a robbery charge and identified, press
dispatches say, by the Indiana polls po-
lice as the man who on Monday night
murdered Joseph Schlansky, a second

pretenses. BOley went to a number of
prominent men, 1t was alleged, including
Repre- sentative johnson, of Washington,
with a story that he had lost his rail-
way ticket, and needed money to get
home. 1t is charged he obtained con-
siderable amount here in this way.
The Pittsburgh police sent out cir
culars for the arrest Of a Fred Brokaw.
charged with robbing a second hand
dealer in Pittsburgh. The San Fran
cisco police picked him up yesterday.
The indianapolis police got one of
these circulars. They quickly identi-
fed the picture. the press dispatches
say, as the man wanted there for the
murder of Schlansky on Monday night.
The local police are wondering how
IL would be possible for a man to
commit a murder in Indianapolis on
Monday night and get all the way to
San Francisco by the next day.
On June 2S the man was Arrested in
Chicago and brought here, was tried,
convicted. and sentenced to serve one
year in Jail He was released on parole,
and left Washington, the police believe,
about July /.

four cities interested in the case think.

this man is the one picked up in San

SHORT POSTAGE STOPS
DEMOCRATIC MEETING
National Association Scheduled Meet
ting, but l-Cent Stamps Failed
to Deliver Notices.

Failure to place the requisite amount
OF postage on the notices was responsible
for the postponement of the annual
meeting of the National Democratic AS
sociation of the United States, which was
scheduled to be held at o'clock last
evening at the southwest corner of
Eighth and X Streets Northwest.
The Democratic brethren apparently an
ticipated the benefit Of 1-cent postage.
which has been advocated SO long. At
any rate Secretary Warfleld had stuck
but a 1-cent stamp on each call, and
Uncle Sans nonpartisan postman de-
cIined TO deliver them at that price.
The result was the calls were held at
the postoffice till o'clock yesterday
afternoon, when M. Warfield called at
the postoffice and paid the extra post
age. 1t was too late for delivery, then.
however and when Secretary Warfield
appeared at the headquarters there was
no one to meet with him.
The meeting will be called for a later
date.
