add much to it's attractiveness and
lead to improvement of the opposite
properties said Mr.. Brunner.
State Street Bridge
Mr.. Drummer was of the idea that
there would be general satisfaction
with the State street bridge plan be-
cause he said it would be at such a
gradual approach that it would be
practically level.
"The combination we have had to
work out is unlike anything L have
ever known" said he. 1T is unlike
anything in New York or Cleveland
and while Denver, on which 1 worked
with M.r Olmsted. has some of the
features it has nothing like this. We
start off with a building on an emin-
ence and have great natural setting
and we have to adopt the city to it."
The proposed bridge across the river
at State street interested the Cover
nor who said it would afford a won
derful approach to the Capitol and
while it would be a matter of years
to come it was worth considering as
a part of the whole general scheme.
Similarly the change of the monument
from State street to the River Front is
another idea to be worked out. 1t
has been suggested many times.
The two architects left the city early
this afternoon, but will return shortly
to discuss details of the plans when
the Governor hears from the people
of the State.
1t is the general impression that the
building plan, which will take years
to work out, will call for structures
alike in material and ARCHITECTURAL de-
tail and that the location would be
such that people passing in trains
would have an admirable view of the
formal garden and court This court
plan was one to which Mr.. Drummer
frequently referred as something
which would be very beautiful There
will be sunken gardens in the court

and form group with the main build
ing about the formal garden which
will be~on the site of the present State
street.
The center will be a paved court
with possibly a monument and with
fountains at either end, Mr.. Brunner
saying it would be similar to the idea
of the Place de la Concorde in Paris
and the Piazza di San Marco in Venice.
The fountains will be surrounded with
verdure.
100 Foot Highway
This court will end at a 100 foot
wide highway to cut across the park
on the lines of Aberdeen and East
streets with which it will connect ard
which will eventually be widened and
improved to be in accord. This high
way will be for the traffic necessities
of the city and the question of trolley
tracks and other details will be worked
out later for the convenience of the

at the conference, was particularly in
terested in the steps planned to i'm
prove traffic conditions.
The plans would abolish all streets
now going through the park and sub
stitute the new highway on the line
OF Aberdeen and East, but highways
connecting with the boundary streets
would not be disturbed.
Seeks Discussion
81 trust that these plans will Ee dis
cusscd and ideas given 10 us" said the
Governor. lit is my hope that we can
finally adopt u plan soon and then ask
the Legislature to make an appropFia-
ton to provide for the grading which
would be the first steps. You all rec
ognize that this plan Is matter OF
years; we arc TO build for hfty OF
more years. Ii is for the future, IL Is
something to be worked up TO, but we
think that we can put on paper some
thing that will endure to tbe cveriaSt-
ing credit of the State Tor years TO
come. Mr.. BrunncT has worked out u
wonderful plan aud I hope tile people
will study IT and give Us their views"
Members of the Legislature in the
city were greatly interested in the
plans and the appropriations commit
tee of the General Assembly will pro-
vide for the start of the work beyond
a doubt.
The buildings projected are badly
needed and as plan for an educa-
tional building to go in the park zone
was proposed last session. this build
ing, which would be located along the
Walnut street side. between the pro-
posed new highway and the railroad,
might be first to be erected, although
on this point the Governor said moth
ing yet could be determined. 1T

Again and again the cars carried loads of panic stricken refugees out of the path of the flames. Trunks, bird cages. phonographs-what- ever came first to hand in their rush from the flames. were piled into the machines by the inhabitants and ta- ken with them to places of safety.
