There is No Note of Discouragement, but Plans Are Discussed to Re- place the Destroyed Building. ‘The Association Monthly, which is pub- lished by the Y. M. C. A., came out this month as usual in spite of the fire which on the 24th of July destroyed all the property as well as the building. As might be ex- pected by any one who is at all familiar with the management of this work, there is no note of discouragement to be found in the pages of the official journal. The fact that the association building was burned is briefly noted and then plans for the fu- ture are discussed and everybody is invited to subscribe toward the building fund and a form of subscription blank is printed. In fact, the new building project is dis- cussed In a variety of ways throughout the pages of the monthly, leaving the con- viction in the minds of the readers that all those who are actively identified with the work of the association are very much in earnest about the new building. In regard to the site of the proposed structure the Menthly says: “The following pieces of property have been suggested for the new building site: Southeast corner of Sth and I streets rorthwest, 10,200 sqvare feet; northwest ner of lith and I streets northwest, ) square feet; 726 and 728 17th street northwest, erea not given; 1711-171) New York avenue rcrthwest, ) square feet; H between 14th ard 15th northwest, north- east corner 11th and L streets northwest, northeast corner 9th and H streets north- west, 10,000 square feet; 1330-124 I street rorthwest, 10,368 square feet; 21 Lafayette square, 13,340 square feet; 1th and D streets northwest, 17,061 square feet; Mas- sachusetts avenue near lith street north- west, 15,729 square feet; 1311 and 1313 H street northwest, 10,80)’ square feet; an- other property between 13th and ith streets, on H, with 14,400 square teet; 13th and New York avenue and H streets, about 0 square feet; also the property known as the Rink, on New York avenue between 13th and 14th streets northwest, and ad- joining lots to the old site. There are others, tut these are those that have come direct to the office. It will take a prize contest in guessing to arrive at the site of the new kuilding at the present time.” The Great Opportunity. In another plan under the above heading the following is said: “The opportunity of a life-time is to the man or woman who wiil seize it now and give to the Young Men’s Christian Associa- tion a suitable lot fur a new building, or, better still, give building and lot, and thus secure a monument that will be as enduring as time. “There are people in Washington who could do this, and they would not be the first in the country to do as generous an act. ithout doubt there could be no better investment—none that would pay such divi- dends in the ennobled lives of thousands of young men. Here would be the endowment of a school for a thousand students who had failed or were unable to secure an edu- cation in their youth; an institution of physical culture that would send out thous- ands to the enjoyment of renewed vigor and equipped for the duties of life; a place where men—young men—may congregate when every other door is closed, and enjoy social intercourse where the atmosphere {s free from all that contaminates and de- bases. . “The endowment of an organization that says to all men, regardless of religious be- lief, ‘All that we have that will build you up morally, physically, intellectualiy, 1s placed before yo organization that recognizes the Lord Jesus Christ as the Savior and Media- tor of mankind, and the Bible—the Word of God—as the guide of faith and practice.’ To give a building to do such a work is to make life worth living. Where is the per- zon who will do this for the young men of the capital of the nation?" Temporary Home. “The rooms of the association will be at 1425 New York avenue northwest, second floor, in the Lenman building. The elevator rurs frem 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and there is but one flight of stairs to climb after 5 o'clock. Every member should visit the rcoms at the earliest possible moment. “The suite is composed of three rooms. The front room, with an abundance of light, is used for the reading room, and when fitted up will be better U the old one; the dimensions are 18}; by 36°) feet. The center room will be used for the office, is lighted from above by a light well and air shaft, is 14 by IStz—and © the other reoms is within sight. reom is the same size as the readi and will be used for the noonday meeting: Tuesday night youag men’s meeting, the Literary Society, the orchestra, and is well adapted for these purposes. These are rocms 102 and 103 Lenman_ building. Adjoining the reading room, and opening into the hall, is room 104, headquarters of the C. E. committee of ‘96, fifteenth inter- rational Christian Endeavor convention. “The association is fortunate in the choice made by the committee of '96 ret the pleasant fellowsiup of the old building and gives Secretary Pugh a private cffice for the greater part of the day. Everybody is glad to have the convention headquarters and the association under one roof and to- gether. “Every raember should visit the rooms at once, see the arrangements, pledge his support, fall into line to help put up a new building, remembering that every member is needed to make the assured succes: “The religious work of the association suffered but one interruption because of the fire. The noond. held on Wednesday the Sth, at Foundry the work was taken up again as usual, and on Au- gust 1 in the temporary quarters in the Lenman building.” —_—~—___ STREET RAILWAY UNION. An Important Mecting Being Held This Afternoon—Subjects Considered. The Protective Street Railway Union ts this afternoon holding an important meet- ing at its headquarters, Bunch’s Hall, 314 Sth strect northwest, behind closed doors, with Presi Themas J. Lawrence pre- siding and Mr. F, M. Dent as secretary. At the time the repert in The Star closed the unioa wis still in session, and until ad- jourrment no official informaticn of the business transacied can be kad. It is un- derstood, how2ver, that the report of the committee of the employes of the Colum- bia Railroad Company who a few days since waited on Superinterdent Boteler are subsequently on President Baker and asked for the reirstatement of a gripman and conduc:or wio had been dismissed for what the men regard as trivia! causes was sulimitted. The members of the inion also, it is un- derstood, discussed with much earnestness the reported aciioa of the management of the Eckington and Scldiers’ Home Rail- way Company in yesterday discharging a conductor for no known reason than that he is a member of the union and is suppos- ed to have beea the last union man in the empley ef the Eckington company. There have be2n, it was stated, rumors for several weeks past that Vice President and General Manager Schoepf nad become moré than ever hostile to the Street Rail- wav Union, and that he had had men em- ployed to watch whether any of the con- ductors and drivers of his line attended the meetings of the union. It is understood that the conductor referred te did attend one or more cf the meetings. The union will make a full investigation of all the circumstances, and it is believed will endeavor to have this conductor, and another, who is now sick in the country, and has also been dismissed, it is said, for intending to join the union, reinstated. ‘The union will also see that the discharged con- ductor and his family are properly cared for until the man is either reinstated or se- cures employment elsewhere. There is, it is stated, a decided impres- sion among the members of the Street Rai way Union that the large mafority of the Eckington men would join the union were it not for the fact that by doing so they are put in imminent jeopardy of losing their places. Many of these men have large families depending upon them, and to be thrown out of work would, in a number of cases, entail positive suffering. ——.__.

SAFE AND COMMODIOUS Recent Transformations at the Old Govern- ment Printing Office. Fireproof Additio: Already Erected and Work Begu on Another Structure, Good progress is being made in the opera- tions for the repair and enlargement cf the government printing office. Col. J. M. Wil- son, who has charge of the work, has re- ported to the chief of engineers that the five-story fireproof building between the southwest and south center buildings has been completed and transferred to the pub- lic printer, thus finishing, excepting a few aninor items, the work provided under the act of August 18918)4. That act provided for the erection of three fire escapes, the construction of an additional story upon the southwest fireproof section, the erection of a new five-story building between the Southwest and south center sections and the strengthening of the H street section. ‘The only work under this project remain- ing to be done is strengthening the H street Section, That work is to be undertaken as soon as the heavy ma‘erials are moved to the new sections. The painting of the outer walls of the new story on the south- West section is now in progress. A large new rolling door has been placed at the west basement entrance to the south center building and a new iron gate is being con- structed for the Jackson alley entrance be- tween the southwest and south center buildings. . The New Six-Story Structure. Col. Wilson reports that the excavation and construction of foundation walls and piers for the new six-story fire-proof Structure on the site of the old stables are nearly completed, including the under- pinning of the west wail of the H street building. The foundation of this wall, he says, was found to be of poor material, and great care was taken to prevent accidents. Needles of 12-inch timber were run through the wall just above the foundation. The wall was thoroughly shored by outside timbers, and the interior girders were well braced. The work has been aceomplished without accident of any kind, or the slight- est cracking of the walls, but was com- paratively expensive. The ground below the surface at the south end of the luild- ing wes of such soft material that excava- tion was necessary to a greater depth than was anticipated, in order to reach gravel. Delay of the Cuntractors. A number of the iron base plates for the basement columns have been placed in po- sition on the piers. The contractors for the steel frame, who under their contract should have com- menced work July 8, are considerably be- hind in their work. They offer the usual explanations and have promised that the erection of the frame will be commenced on the 20th instant and pushed to rapid completion. Col. Wilson expresses the opinion that it is better to submit to this delay and annoyance rather than to annul the contract, readvertise and be subjected to the still greater delay incident to such action. Contracts have recently been made for ornamental terra cotta, for stone sills, for windows and doors and for a hoisting engine and a freight elevator. It is pro- pcsed during the present month to continue work or the unfinished portions and com- plete the foundation of the new building and the underpinning of the west wail of the H street section. —_._—_ jaxnl Hemorrhage.

His case is the worst the doc- tors have ever seen in Washington. He has bled steadily for seventy-two hours. The hemorrhage is believed to be now slightly yielding to treatment and gradually get- ting under control. — Finger Shattered.
