James E. Freeman, Bishop of Washing- ton, at a meeting of the national execu- tive committee for the .cathedral. Bishop Freeman was reporting prog- Tess in the efforts to campete the north and south transepts of the cathedral | and he explained that the conditional fifi ‘was offered with the provision that ,000 additional be secured for the construction of one of these transepts.

The District Commissioners, at their board meetl.nf yesterday, strongly dis- approved a bill calling for appropriation of $425,000 for purchase of certain lands south of T street extended for park pur- | poses.
