The proposed plan is attracting national attention. The first conception was mcrely that of the estab- lishment of a museum of war relics, battle trophies, &c., for which a suitable building was to be erected, presumably in one of the central southern cities, and if the original plan be adhered to it is probable that such a location will be decided upon and" an outlay of about $250,000 to $300,UU0 devoted to the purpose. The scheme was practically launched at the last annual reunion held at Houston, Tex., in an offer from Mr. Charles B. Rouss, its originator and patron, a wealthy and philanthropic citizen of New York, to donate $100,000 to- ward a fund of $200,000, the balance to be raised by the ex-confederates and their friends. The proposition met with im- mediate favor, and plans were at once in- augurated for conducting the canvass. The fund raised to this time already amounts to more than the figures named at the outset, and will doubtless be very ma- terially increased by the next annual meet- ing, to be held in Richmond, June 30. The location of the building will be decided at that time by a committee of one from each state, the District of Columbia being 1¢cog- nized as. and granted the representation of a state. A Broader Proposition. The original proposition for a mere mu- seum of relics, or a simple “battle abbe: as it is often designated, has outgrown it- self in the importance and advisability if not necessity for something upon a grander scale and for a more comprehensive pur- pose. This kas been occasioned, in part, from a greater success in collections than was anticipated, but more largely, no doubt, from the fact that a broadening of the scope into a grand and magnificent histor- ical and industrial exposition, has brought to it from wealthy and influential friends of the advanced idea offers of contributions aggregating a sum several times more than the amount first designated. To the Washington contingent of ex-con- federates is due, perhaps, the more ex- tensive scheme, and the plans and pur- Poses suggested by them have found ad- yocates in all sections. Should Washington be selected for the location of the buildiug it is understood that at least $750,000, and probably, with an endowment fund includ- ed, $1,000,000, will be made available for the purpose. Such an edifice as contemplat- ed would include a complete historical de- partment, a department of art and sculp- ture, cne devoted to industrial and agricul- tural resources, a grand representative battle abbey hall, as embodied in the prim- ary intention; an apartment of exhibits for each state, meeting halls, rooms and an auditorium with a seating capacity of three or four thousand. The Advantages of Washington. For a structure so comprehensive and far-reaching in its purposes the fitness and logical superiority of Washington as a lo- cation are generally recognized. The Dis- trict of Columbia was carved from the states of Virginia and Maryland and is strongly represented in the sentiment and Erinciples of both. It is said that neariy 40,000 Virginians and over 30,000 Mary- landers, combined with the immense flow from the southern states, form fully 100,000 of the city’s population, representing a peo- ple who naturally inherit and cultivate the customs and habits of their nativity.

His career has been niost interesting. He was born in 1: and spent his boyhood near Winchester, in the valley of Virginia. At the age of fifteen he left school and began the battie of life In the mercantine line, on one dollar a week. W eighteen years old he nad, by strict economy, accumulat- ed $500, with which he embarked in bus- iness for himself. The beginning of the war found hiin prosperous. He entered the confederate army as a private in the twelfth cavalry, and in the ranks served with gallantry to the end. The close of the war found him, like thousands of his egmrades, without a penny. Returning to his old home, he laid aside the sword for the plowshare, and toiled through sum- mer’s heat and winter's cold without a word of complaint. His ambition and rest- less enersy l¢éd him to seek more lucrative fields. Severing home ties, he boldly struck out for New Yerk, where he landed with a scant supply of clothing. weary and friendless, and without a penny. He made the dreary rounds seeking for something to do, often hungry and disappointed.

SENOR QUESADA MAKES A STATEMENT Reported Movement to Raise a Company of Troops Here. FRAUDULENT APPEALS eS Although extraordinary efforts are being made to keep the move quiet, it is definitely known that an attempt is being made here, by persons claiming authority, to enlist young men for service in Cuba. Cubans are to be strengthened. It is said a large number of young men from this city and Baltimore have enlisted and expect soon to make a start for the island of strife to the scuth of this country. The reputed Cuban agent engaged in recruiting divides his time between Balti- more and this city. He is said to be re- markably discreet, and is in the habit of maintaining an annoying silenc@, even to- ward those whose aid is sought, until the character of the men is fully assured. It is stated, however, that the party is already very large in numbers, and will be in readiness to move within a few days. The larger part of those enlisted in this city ure at present residents of East and South- east Washington, and are, as a rule, from respectable and well-known families. Ac- cording to the proposals made to the re- cruits, the Americans are not to be officers in the Cuban service, but, the understand- ing is, will enlist in the ranks, The con- tract calls for a salary of $25 per month, Cuban currency, with a proviso for a cer- tain lump sum in the event the insurgents are successful. Senor Quesada’s Disavowal. When the attention of Gonzalo de Que- sada, the representative in this city of the Cuban republic, was called to the report that parties of men were being enlisted in this city and in Baltimore for the pur- bese of going to the island and fighting in the ranks of the revolutionists, he grew very indignant. ‘The wholé thing is an absolute fraud,” said Senor Quesada, with vigerous empha- sis. “The Cubans are not enlisting any men. in the United States, and 1o one has any authority to even ruggest such a course. I receive hundreds of letters every week from Americans who are willing to serve in behalf of Cuban independence without remuneration, and who are willing to pay their own expenses and their sub- sistence while there, but I do not even answer them. Some time ago a man named James Hoyt, who called himself a colonel in the Cuban army, and pretended to hold @ commission from Gomez, began to enlisi, or rather engage, men in New Orleans. He Promised them commissions of lieutenants and in other grades at so much per com- mission, demanding $5 down from the ap- plicants whe answer his call. He was a vile fraud and every man who pretends to have authority to enlist men for the Cu- ban cause is in the same category. Such men are only attempting to make money from those whose ardor overcomes their wisdom. I repeat that no one who is en- gaged in the business of enlisting par- lies for service in Cuba is anything but a fraud. An Unauthorized Appeal. “There is something else in this connec- tion which I would be very grateful to The Star for allowing me to call the attention of the public to. For some time various newspapers published in different parts of the country have contained the following advertisement: CUBA LIBRE. All friends of progress and humanity are invited to contribute money and material to the cause of Cuban independence. Please send contributions to the following gen- tlemen: . Col. Fernando Figueredo, Tampa, Fla.; Gen. Gonzaler Quseda, New York city; J. G. Christopher, es Jacksonville, Wia.t Wm. H. Stoane & Spns, Cincinnati, Ohio; Capt. Orlan C. Cullen, Cullen, Va. The services of well-equipped parties are also solicited. Address as above. “You notice that the name of Figuerido, as well as my own, is mispelled. ‘The whole thing is absolutely unauthorized, and, in my opinign, a fraud. The only per- son in this country who has authority to receive money or supplies for the cause of Cuban independence, and who can give a proper receipt for the same, is Benjamin J. Guerra, 192 Water street, New York, who is the treasurer of the Cuban party. The real friends of Cuba would be very grateful to The Star for giving these state- ments the wide publicity among intelligent people which its columns so fully assure.” + Badly Injured. Marcus Mocney, thirty years old, employ- ed at Martin Schneider’s saloon, 1100 8th street southeast, was painfully injured about the face and hands by the explosion of gas in a vault yesterday.
