AMERICAN
+ NAMES ARCHITECT.
President Poole Announces
Further Plans for Bank to
| Cost About 100000.

The contemplated new home of the
Federal-American National Bank, TO
cost in the neighborhood of $1,000
900, and equipped with an elevated
banking room, local novelty. as
sumed a definite status today with
the announcement of the architect
chosen to plan the structure.
Work of designing the handsome
new home has been intrusted to AL
fred c. Bosom, New York architect.
John Poole, president of the institu-
ton, announced. Mr.. Bosom has
probably designed more of the great
banking houses of America than any
other man, it was said. He will be
assisted by J. H. De Sibour of this
city. whose work here is we'll known
to every one.
The work on the building will
start Immediately. and the plans and
contracts are being pushed with the
utmost speed to enable the bank s
clientele to have the use Of the new
quarters at the earliest possible
moment.
Has Excellent Location.
The new home. which will be located
At the corner of 14th and G streets,
apace with the best in the country.
The various federal reserve districts
have provided themselves with new
main Offices. practically all of which
have located their main banking room
above the ground floor. The great
national banks in New York city, such
as the National Bank of Commerce
the First National, the Continental and
Commercial in Chicago and innumer-
able others likewise boast elevated
banking rooms.
To reach this raised banking room,
a few wide easy stairs and battery
of elevators will take all customers
to the tellers cages and officers
quarters with greatest ease. while
the advantages gained are held of
greater benefit by the officers. The
ground floor, they point out, often
seems crowded, but the new raised
room will be more commodious, have
better light and air. free from street
DUST and removed from the noise OF
passing traffic.
The building itself, eighty-od feet
long on both street fronts. and rails
ing itself about seventy feet in the
air. will be in the true southern CO.
1onial style of architecture. 1t will
be of stone throughout, of a light
creamish color, with great arched
windows twenty-five feet high, which
will flood the bank at all times with
daylight and fresh air.
Customers will enter a marble
lined vestibule about eighteen feet
square, situated in the middle of the
facade on 14th street. Immediately
