URGES ANOTHER PLAN TO
ENLARGE PATENT OFFICE
Secretary Lane Supports Suggestion
for Underground Building
for Records.

A change in the plans to increase the
capacity Of the patent office was ex-
planned today to Congress in a letter
from Secretary Lane. who Is Of the
opinion that the proposed building for
the interior court Of the patent office
would mar the beauty of the court
He has, therefore. asked for authorize
ton to use the $4,000 appropriated
for the purpose in a different manner.
as explained in his letter. which fol-
lows:
"The commissioner Of patents" says
the Secretary, reached the conclusion
that 1t would be inadvisable to mar the
court of the patent office building by
ground as was contemplated in the es-
innate upon which the above appro-
priation was based. He suggests that
in lieu thereof the interior court of
the patent Office be excavated below its
present ground level and there be erect
ed thereon a practically fireproof
building. approximately fifteen to six
teen feet high In the clear in which
to house and properly care for the valu-
able records of his office, and reconi-
mends that Congress be requested to
change the purpose for which appropria-
ton was made, to authorize the building
of the underground structure as described
in his letter.
..upon careful consideration OF the sub
tect concur in the conclusion of the
mends that provision be incorporated

eral deficiency or the sundry civil bill for

that much dependence is being placed on

Claim of the Constitutionaists.
In the meantime the Mexican constitu-

ever since they have been opposing each

that he would allow Gen. Diaz to be
elected President of Mexico. but instead
of that conditions grew SO uncomfortaole

that he fled on board an American war
ship from Vera Cruz. He has been IN
