New American Brass Co. Structure to Be One=
 Third as Large

Tentative plans for the erection of additional office quarters adjoin- ing the American Brass Go. build ing on Grand street, all of which are pending a hearing of the board of public works in regard to the city building line regulations, call for the erection of structure which will be one-third as large as the present offices, it was stated this morning by Clark s. Judd, vice. president of the company.
 MT. Judd stated today that no further announcement could be made in view of the fact that all plans were in the elementary stage and subject to changes at any time. The arrangements at the present time call for the erection of build ing on the corner of State and Grand streets and it is believed that it will be similar to the present structure in regard to the outside contour of the building.
 Building permits were obtained by the American Brass company and the Scovill Manufacturing company yesterday. The American Brass company permit is for an addition to its sheet rolling mills plant on Freight street. The structure will cost $5O,OO0. The Scovill company permit is for a new building on Baldwin street costing $27,000. The latter structure will be at the cor ner of Mill and Baldwin streets. A permit has been granted to demol- ish the present building at that point.
 The work is being carried out in conjunction with the city's proposed plan to change the grade from Union square to Bridge street and erect new bridge across the Mad river in the place of the present old Baldwin street bridge. The Scovill company will give some land at the corner of Mill and Baldwin streets so as to round off the corner there.
