COMMIISONER WIGHT'S ADDRESS Officials Pleased With the Work of Construction. 3 SKETCH OF EDIFICE The handsome new building of the Indus- trial Home School, on the Tenleytown read, rearly adjoining the new Episcopal Cathe- dral site, has been completed, and was yes- terday afternoon at 4 o'clock form: turned over to the District by the contrac- tors, Pavarini & Greer. ‘The ceremonies attending the transfer of the building were simple throughout, con- sisting of a thorough inspection of the structure, followed by its acceptance, while later in the afternoon Mr. John B.

Aniong those present at the exercises were: District Commissioners Wight and Beach, Inspector of Buildings Brady and the assistant inspector, Mr. Snowden Ash- ford: the superintendent of charitie: Herbert W.

This party of visiiors was met at the home by Miss Kate B. Barlow, the superintendent, and by the cohtractors. The Structure Satisfactory. Every detail entering into the construc- tion of the new building was inspected, and the Commissioners and home Officials ex- pressed themselves delighted with the structure. The work of designing tht building was intrusted by Inspector Brady to Mr Ashford, who labored untiringly to have it conferm to the ideas of those inter- ested in the home.

In July, 1897, work was begun in the of- fice of the inspector of buildings on the plans and specifications for the new build- ing. The preliminary plans were complet>d in August, 1897, and submitted to the hoard of trusices of the Industrial Home for suggestions and recommendatio irspector of buildings recommend the work be postponed until spring, as the demolition of the old building and unfin- ished condition of the new work would ex- pose the occupants to the inclement weath- er of the winter with no mean’ of heating the buildings. In the meantime the board of trustees retained the plans and carefully considered the arrangement and size of t reoms and improvements in the heating ay paratus. In December, 1897, the plans were revised to meet the wishes of the board, ard April 16 a contract made with Pavarini & Greer, for $25,460, to complete the building within six months from April 15, 1898. The new building is three stories and basem2nt, and the general character of the design conforms to the present structure, with a tendency to the “colonial” in de- tails. The front facade is ornamented by two octagonal towers for bell and clock, and a broad two-story porch extends nearly across the front. The building is 55 feet by 99 feet, of hard red brick. The base- ment contains a gymnasium 18% feet by 4214 feet; play room, 20 feet by 60 feet; swimming pool, room and pool, 18! feet by f-et; vegetable cellar, coal vault and tool room. The Several Floors. The first floor will b2 occupied by a dining reom 21 feet by 60% feet; serving pantry and kitchen, 18 feet by 21 feet; a small of- boys’ clothing room, 18g fe , over and connect2d by a stairway the Swimming pool immediately below. The seme fivor will contain reading room, 18 fe y 30 feet; room for gam>s and se vents’ dining reom.

IS FOR ROOSEVELT ae itu Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. NEW YORK, November 1, 1898. Th> trend of polittcal events seem to in- dicate that this is not so much a cam- vaign of the republican vs. the democratic party, but a campaign of the people vs. Richard Croker. A prominent Tammany Hall man said to ycur correspondent last night that a defeat for Crokers’ candidate in the present campaign meant th2 loss of power to that gentieman and a possible permanent residence abroad. This is per- haps going too far, but the origin of the stegestion makes it worthy of repetition. ver before in the history of political campaigns has Richard Croker taken such an active interest as this fall. Every en- ergy of Tammany, the immense influence of the city administration, the police de- partment with its despotic power, ar> being used to elect Augustus Van Wyck governor. ‘0 collect campaign funds it is alleged that every sort of blackmail is being prac- ticed. Both Manhattan and Brooklyn are said to be paying the tribute of vice to the wigwam ruler. Every man in b m the great wholesaler to the baker, is being made to feel the s an iron scepter. Tamman nd Willough- by street leaders are charged with giving commands to th2 police and other dep: ments which can ruin’ As Kourke Cock- ran said: “He can make a fortune ‘or un- make 2 career.” There are signs of a si- lent revolution against this rule, and_any- thing may happen next : ire not fancies, as every testify in secret.

Police Whip Voters Into Line. uitor must emplo: The polic>, according to reliable informa- tion, are being used to whip voters into line. They are copying registration books in the best portions of Brooklyn, which have a fixed and republican population, and where 2 registration would be im- possible. Thos» who have seen these pro- ceedings say Tammany is putting on the screws. The police are said to be going farther. They carry registration bo om the polling places for examina . Under the law this is a felony. “In the borough of Manhattan we are simply wide open and the wide-openers are paying for it id a political authority to- y. He added: “A new trick in running a wide-open town has been disclosed. We are all awake to the restcration of the old s: tem of disorderly resorts, open by grace of Tammany Hall, but a new method of col- lecting the revenue appears now to be prac- d. Lawbreakers used to pay the police captain a regular monthly tribute, and when this was paid they were safe. Tammany dis- trict leaders also are now acting as collect- ors. Frank Moss has in his possession a letter signed with the name of the Tam- many leader of a downtown district and re- ceived by the proprietress of a disorderly house practically ordering the recipient to com: to the Tammany club house of the dis- trict and pay. The letter will go on record as the first published example of its kind. The old ways of collecting blackmail did not include letter writing. Evidently the district leaders are, to some extent, taking the place of police captains in collecting mone “It has been brought out already that in certain east side districts the proprietors of dives were obliged to ‘arrange’ with the district leader before opening. The next Lexow committee will discover a new sys- tem of corruption running side by side with the familiar one. Of course, the collections made by district leaders are directly for political purposes. That money is to defeat Theodore Roosevelt for governor by defray- ing campaign expenses up the state and swelling the fraudulent vote of the lower east side. The more money collected by district leaders from keepers of ‘dives’ and disorderly houses the more chance there of Van Wyck’s election. The chief bene ries of Tammany rule are lawbreakers, and, naturally, they are relied on to con- tribute their utmost toward extension of Tammany rule to the state.” Uprising Against Crokeriam. Reports that are coming into republican headquarters today indicate that there is brewing an uprising against Crokerism, which promises to culminate on next Tues- day, and it all comes about through the re- cent exposures regarding this wide-open town. People in every section of the city are finding out that the town is wide open, and that in every case a Tammany pull or money to oil the hinges was back of the opening. Croker has dropped Senator Murphy out of sight in the present campaign. He is at his home in Troy, and his name is rarely mentioned at Croker’s campaign bureau in the Hoffman House. The senator has had very little to do with the present cam- and now that the democrats have st all hope of carrying the legislature he has ceased to be a factor in state politics. .ker made a combination with Senator Murphy to drive David B. Hill from con- trol of the democratic organization of the state. The combination was successful in the fight nst Hill, but as soon as paign, ampaign according to his own and ignored Murphy. The friends of senator recall that it was under his lership that the party was thoroughly organized and won_ victories in 1891 and Murphy and Hill then worked in har- mony, and ‘r.mmany could not control the state committee or dictate nominations to a state convention. When Murphy turned from Hill to Croker many of his friends predicted that he was making a mistake, and that Tammany would use him to get control of the state committee and then turn him down. Last winter Mr. Croker said publicly that Senator Murphy was the democratic leader in the state. That was the time he was planning to fight Hill for control of the state committee. With the aid of the senator, Mr. Croker won his fight, and today Murphy is ignored. The Soldier Vote. Several references have been made in this correspondence to the soldier vote. In the event of many returns this may be a very important factor, and is worth ex- tended consideration. It is estimated that there are about 6,000 absentees from this state who are entitled to a vote on land or sea, and they may go far toward settling close contests in legislative or congre: sional districts, or even in the state. Should such a contingency arise, it would delay the announcement of the official re- sult a long time, as the returns from di: tant Manila or Honolulu might not be re- ceived before the latter part of December, although the result would be known by ca- ble possibly the day after election, a few days from the time generally set for the inauguration of a governor, or the session of the legislature. Still, in contests where a few votes may win or lose, the spldiers’ vote, will be an all-important factor. They are away from the influences of a “boss” and free from political entangle- ments and alliances, and doubtless will be guided entirely by patriotic impulses in casting their ballots. Of course, under these conditions they are almost sure to vote for Roosevelt. Heavy Betting Expected. ‘There is a chance that there, will be some very heavy election betting during the next few days. It is announced that the demo- cratic managers are preparing to unload $300,000 of Van Wyck money into the po- litical betting ring, and, according to Chair- man Odell, in case they do so they will find as much lucre waiting them as they care to handie. This rather interesting an- nouncement came out today when Chair- man Odell was asked how he accounted “The Dependable Store.” 924-926-928 7th st., running through to 704-706 K st A day of this | store’s unmatchable selling.
