WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.—Washing- ton’s birthday was generally observed in this city. The farewell address of the first President was read in the Sen- ate, the Federal and municipal offices were closed and only a few of the busi- ness houses were open. There were | several patriotic celebrations by the | Association of Oldest Inhabitants, the Sons of the Revolution and other or- gonizations. Historic Alexandria, six miles south of here on the Virginia side of the Potomac River, ywhere George Washington was a familiar figure during most of his career, cele- | brated the day with an elaborate mil- itary and civic parade. ROME, Feb. —All the Americais in Rome, about 600, gathered here to-| day at the where they were cordially entertained in honor of Washington’s birthday by Embassador Meyer and Mrs. Meyer and the staff of the embassy. There was a noticeable display of flags in various parts of the city in honor of the day. PARIS, Feb. 22.—The American Club celebrated Washington’s birthday by a banquet to-night.

This bill 1docs not increase the total appropria- | tion of $850,000 for the site and build- | ing, but the increased allowance for | the site leaves a shortage of $19,600, which the House refused to make good, to be cut from the appropriation | for the "building.

A petition was cir- culated in the House to-day pledging the signers to vote for Dick. The pur- pose was to obviate the necessity for a caucus. Forty-eight names appeared in the petition when it reached the Cuyahoga delegation. They refused to sign until they had had an opportunity to confer among themselves. Only fif- ty-nine votes are necessary to nomi- nate in joint caucus.
