MEMORIAL. !!L!!. ID GRANT NEARLY
 COMPLETED

WASHINGTON. Nov. IS (by Asso, ciated Press.) s.)-Eighten years in the making, memorial to General U. s. Grant is nearing completion here and end of the year. It is in the form of magnificent equestrian statue kind in the world, mounted on a granite pedestal and flanked on the left by casting of a group of cavalry and on the right by a group of artillery, both groups done in bronze. Two huge lions in stone at the foot of the pedestal complete the memorial
 The equestrian figure stands 16 feet high, weighs 10,7OO pounds and costs $250,000: The memorial is located in the Botanic Gardens at the foot of the capitol and congress has approved the removal of a sec tiOn of the iron fence on the east front of the gardens to admit the statue and to provide space for spec t1tors at the unveiling ceremonies.
 Authority for the creation of the memorial was given by Congress on February 23, 1901. The competition for the statue was held in 1902 and the award was to Henry M Shrady, noted scuptor. of Elmford N. r., whose design was selected by a jury consisting of Augustus Sain-Gaudens, Daniel Chester French, Daniel H. Burnham and Charles F. McKim The pedestal was designed by Ed ward Pierce Casey of New York, associated with Mr. Chrady, and was completed and put in place in 1906.
 The equestrian statue has just now been finished, however, and was shipped here in sections by motor truck from New York City.
 The memorial to the famous gen eral and 18th president of the United States will bear no inscription ac- cording to members of the Fine Arts commission, who recently ap- proved the statue in it's completed form. A member of the Grand Memorial commission had composed a lengthy inscription, but after care full consideration officials of the com mission and of the office of public buildings and grounds deemed an in scription unnecessary.
