PLANS FOR BOTANIC
GARDENS READY
Committee May Approve De-
signs TomorroW-Fess
Seeks Needed Funds.

The new Bota mic Gardens to be laid
off in the area from Maryland avenue
to Canal street between First and
Second streets will form an attrac
tive addition TO the show places OF
the National Capital if the joint com
mittee on library approves tentative
designs submitted today by William
E. Parsons, the Chicago architect.
The joint committee will meet al
1890 o'clock tomorrow morning to 20
over the plans, and Senator Tess of
Ohio. chairman, announced today that
he is hopeful the committee will take
final action in time to enable the
present Congress TO appropriate the
funds.
Time to Get Money.
Congress within the past few weeks
enacted the law authorizing purchase
of the area referred to, but that act
does not make the money available.
Senator Fess believes the detailed
plans for carrying out the relocation
of the gardens should be approved
now so that the appropriation can
be made in the second deficiency bill
before the present Congress adiourns.
He hopes to get in the deficiency
bin some of the money needed to start
construction work in addition to the
$500, 900 authorized for purchase of
the land
The layout of the new gardens to
be presented to the committee tomor-
row by Mr. Parsons shows a white
stone conservatory building fronting
on Maryland avenue between First
and Second streets and extending
back about 20 feet toward B street,
south of the Capitol. Looking from
the Mall this structure would present
an architectural view in keeping with
the Capitol Building. Although there
will be Il glassed conservatory, with a
dome, this portion of the layout will
be back of the stone building and will
not be visible to any great extent
from the Mall.
Square for Conservatory.
This new conservatory building win
be 900 feet in length and 40 feet high
to a depth of 20 feet. This building,
with surrounding shrubs and walks,
fills one of the two squares to be
acquired
The other new square is triangular
in shape, extending from B to Canal
and from First 10 Second. Mr. Par
sons plan calls for the placing of the
Bartholdi Fountain in the center of
that square with an attractive setting
of walks and botanical displays.
The main object of relocating the
Botanic Gardens Is to At the existing
gardens into their proper place as
part of the Mall development. The
new memorials to Meade and Grant
have been erected in the old gardens
and when the Bartholdi Fountain it
moved from the old gardens to the
new location the eastern end of the
Mall plan can be completed.
The old conservatory buildings In
the existing gardens were erected in
1867 and will be taken down when the
new scheme Is carried out.

HAUGEN SAYS BILL
IS BEST POSSIBLE
Farm Relief Measure Rep
resents Best Thought of
Country, He Asserts.

By the Associated Press.
The McNary -Haugen farm relief
bill represents the best thought of
the country's agricultural minds and
is the only measure which amply
meets the demand for easing the farm
er's condition, Representative Haugen,
Republican, Iowa, declared in the
House today in opening the new fight
for relief legislation.

of the United States"
Pleas Are Persistent.
Are we to longer turn deaf ear
to these earnest and persistent please"
he asked.
Haugen, white haired veteran Of
nearly Is years service in the House,
and chairman of it's agricultural COM
mittee, declared the present situation
confronting the farmers presents one
Of the most profound legislative prob
lens the Nation has ever seen.
He detailed at length the problem s.
causes and contended that only Gov

Factor I'm Tax Reduction.
Although Secretary of the Treasury
Mellon believes the exact cost of the
McNary- Haugen bill to the Federal
Treasury, should it be enacted, could
not be computed with much accuracy
at this time the Secretary has let 1t
be known that IL the bill does pass 1t
will likely have serious effect upon
prospects for tax reduction next year.
The full burden of farm-relief
would not fall upon the Treasury, IL
Is estimated, until some time during
the next fiscal year, beginning July
/. so that the effect upon the esti-
mated surplus for this fiscal year.
1888, 0O0, 900, could not easily be cal
culated. In making any preliminary
estimates, however, looking toward
possible tax reduction next year, Sec
rotary Mellon has indicated that the
farm relief bill will be. big factor
in the consideration He would not
go so far as to predict that tax relief
was impossible should the bill pass.
