had made a tentative selection of the j
wedding present the House is to give. J
Whether Miss Wilson actually saw the I

that delighted Miss Wilson greatly, and ,
forthwith went a bulky letter from Miss |
<*laik to Representative Mann, containing'
designs and specifications. Mr. Mann will
soon be in this city to make the final

ALLEGE THAT VERDICT
IS "ILLEGAL AND VOID"
Owners Object to Proceedings in
Condemnation of Land for
Public Use.
Sarah Jane McN'eir and Katlierine T.
Sullivan, the owners of certain tieorge
town realty assessed for benefits by the
jury in the condemnation of land for the
extension of Q street northwest and for
the erection of a bridge across Rock
??reek, today liled a.petition in the Dis
trict Supreme Court asking that the ver
dict of the jury be vacated and set aside.
The petitioners are represented by At
torney A. Leftwich Sinclair.
Say Verdict Is Illegal.
The petitioners assert that the verdict
of the jury assessing damages and bene
fits in the case is "illegal, null and void,"
for the following reasons:
Because the petitioners were not
served with process in the case, and Jiad
no notice of the pendency of the con
demnation proceeding until long after
the linal hearing of the case; because
public notice for twenty days was not
given the parties interested in the pro
ceeding by advertisement in three daily
newspapers, as provided by the District
code, and as required by a recent ruling
of the Court of Appeals; because there
was a fatal variance between the order
of publication and the petttion filed by
the District Commissioners asking for
the condemnation of the land needed for
the extension: because the petition was
signed by only one of the District Com
missioners and by an assistant to the
Engineer Commissioner, and because the
verdict of the jury, before it was sub
mitted to the court, was left in the pri
vate custody of the District for two
weeks, and was made up and framed by
certain officials of the District, and not
by the jury.
Amount of Award.
By its verdict the jury awarded $73,
850.20 for the land condemned and as
sessed benefits against adjacent prop
erty aggregating $7G. 162.58.
The verdict was reported to the court
January (}. 1913, and was confirmed Feb
ruary 21. 1913.

GRATIFIED AT INTEREST
IN U. S. STEEL PLANT
Secretary Daniels Plans to Have
. Appropriation Spread Over
Several Years.
Secretary Daniels says he is glad to see
the big cities showing an lntliest in the
selection of the site of the proposed gov
ernment steel plant, which Congress is
to be asked to provide for at the next
regular session.
I wish every city with natural ad
vantages would start in trying to get
this factory," said the Secretary. "I am
glad to see that Baltimore has started
out after it. Philadelphia ought to be in
the fight behind the bill Introduced by
Representative Vare, which calls for the
location of the factory in the Quaker
city. Philadelphia is a natural iron cen
ter. Cleveland would be a good location.
No Choice for Location.
"I don't care where it is located, just
so we get the factory. I don't care
whether the location is left to the depart
ment or whether the nava' affairs or ap
propriation committee selects the site.
"Various estimates, ranging from
$7,000,000 to $9,000,000, have been made
fur the steel wlint. My Idea is not to ask
Congress to authorize the entire amount
this next year, but to appropriate onlv j
enough to purchase the site and com- '
menu preliminary work. 1 do not believe !
the first vear's appropriation would need i
to exceed * 1,000.000 or $1. .700,000. The re- i
maunder would be spread over two or!
three years.
"I feel sure that the government fac
tory would work a great economy. Armor
plate could not be the only material man
ufactured. We could turn out gun bor
ings and much material both for the
army and the navy which,now is being
purchased from private, and in some in
stances non-competitive, firms."

AS RESULT Of DUEL
Garrett and Mrs. Hutton Will
Both Be Placed Under
Arrest.

a revolver duel Thursday night at the
home of Mrs. Hutton at linden.
The issuance of warrants for both par
ticipants. it is stated, will be done for
the purpose of insuring: their attendance
in court when they have sufficiently re
covered from their wounds to enable
them to appear. Arrangements were |
made to have Police Justice Mace and j
the state's attorney visit Mrs. Hutton j
at the sanitarium at Forest Glen and
have her make oath to a complaint
against Garrett.
To Be Kept Under Guard.
It is stated that a deputy sheriff or
constable will he placed on guard in the
vicinity of the sanitarium to prevent
Mrs. Hutton from leaving Montgomery
county, the prosecuting officer stating
that he feared friends of Garrett might
make an effort to induce her to go away
in order that she might not appear j
against him.
State's Attorney Spates and Sheriff
Howard stated that the Washington
police will be asked to'keep an eye 011
Garrett at Garfield Hospital. The two
county officials saw Garrett at the hospi
tal yesterday afternoon a nil he started to
relate the story of the shooting, but his
condition became such that the physi
cians deemed it inadvisable for him to
continue. He denied that he was under
the influence of liquor- when the shooting
occurred.
Mrs. Hutton told the county officials
the story of the shooting when they
visited her at the sanitarium yesterday
afternoon. Her story was a repetition of
what she told earlier in the day, and she
explained how she happened to receive
the one bullet wound in her back. Her ;
children were asleep in a room near 1
where she was when she was shot, she
stated, and she turned to see if they had
been harmed. It was then, she stated,
that she was shot in the back.
Thinks Garrett Fired First.
Discussing the shooting with the county
officers, Mrs. Hutton says she was unable
to say who fired the first shot, although
she thinks it was fired by Garrett as she
felt a stinging or burning sensation in
her leg before she pulled the trigger the
first time.
Reports from Garfield Hospital and the
sanitarium at Forest Glen this morning
were to the effect that both patients were
In fairly good condition. Physicians at
the sanitarium feel certain that Mrs. Hut
ton will recover, and while Garrett's
chances for recovery are also good, it is
said that he is not out of danger.

! IN STATUE OF BRONZE
Unusual Honor Paid to Gen.
Castleman by Residents
of Louisville.
LOl."ISVILLK. Kj.. November 8.?With
the unveiling here today of a heroic
et|Met?tri??i statue of Gen. John Brecken
ridge Castleman. veteran of two wars and
long a leading: citizen of Kentucky, th?
residents of Louisville paid him unique
honor. Ceremonies, attended by Gen.
Castleman himself, members of his family
and several thousand of his fellow-citi
zens, were staffed beside the statue, which
occupies a commanding position at the
entrance to Cherokee Park.
The statue is one of the few ever erect
ed to a person during his lifetime. It is
| of bronze and shows Gen. Castleman In
civilian garo, seated on his famous black
! mare Caroline. The sculptor is R- Hin
ton Perry of New l'ork.
Tribute by Henry Watterson.

"We served together in the field and

only American who was ever thus sig
nalized. To have been rescued from
death by Lincoln, banished by Andrew

having worn the gray in perilous en- j
terprises, finally to have worn the blue i
with distinction, retired from the army
of the I'nited States as a general offi
cer, is a record shared, 1 am sure, by no
other. Vet his chief claim upon us is
that of the citizen and neighbor, who
through a generation has given great
energies ami talents to civil duties the
most important and useful, commend
ing himself as an official and endearing
himself as a man."
His War Service,
Gen. Castleman was a major under
Morgan in the civil war. and headed an
expedition which sought the delivery
of Confederate prisoners in Illinois and
Indiana, but was captured. The parole
given him was revoked by President
Johnson, and he lived for a time abroad.
He volunteered for service in the war
with Spain, and was discharged as a
brigadier general, declining an appoint
ment of the same rank in the regular
army, tendered by President McKinley.
For years he has served, except dur
ing occasional republican municipal
administrations, as president of Louis
ville's board of park commissioners. He
is credited with having done more to
give Louisville its splendid system of
parks than any other one person.
NEW SUBMARINE MINE.
Navy Adopts One Described as the
World's Greatest.
,
A new submarine mine which has been
j adopted by the United States Navy. Is
generally recognized as the world's
greatest. Some of the notable features
of the new mine are descrihed as fol
lows:
It can be carried by torpedo boat de
stroyers.
It cannot be fired by the explosion of
another mine near it.
It can be successfully planted from a
vessel steaming at a speed of thirty
knots per hour.
It can be planted on the open sea as
a floating mine, yet so submerged that it
will be out of sight of the enemy.
It automatically becomes harmless
when it breaks from its moorings, so that
it will not be a menace to navigation.
It does not explode on first contact,
but waits until reaching the vitals of a
battleship, when it does its terrible work.
A fleet of destroyers could surround an
I enemy's fleet at sea A-ith a field of these
| mines in such a way that practically
every ship of the fleet would be de
| stroyed.

CARL BROWNE SCORES
MINORITY LEADER MANN
Resents Blocking of House Resolu

Colorado Strike.
I
Carl Browne, labor leader, editor and
joctoplane inventor, who tracked two
; policemen's heads together when they
j stopped him from making a spetxjh on
I the Capitol steps in front of Coxev'a
I army two decades ago, presented to the
! clerk of the House today a set of resolu
tion^ condemning Representative Janir?
' R. Mann of Illinois, republican floor
t leader, for his efforts in blocking the
Keating resolution to investigate labor
i conditions in the stt ike-ridden counties
; of Colorado.
The resolution nas adopted at a meet
i ing in the open air at Pennsylvania
avenue and loth street last night, and
. describes the strike situation as the
I "most serious since Fort Sumter
, fired on. savoring of conditions in M ox -

at every session of Congress with this
same lack of quorum, much other busi

signs bills so passed in the interest of
capitalism."
The resolutions tailed the point of no

empowered "the great speaker of the
enemy. Carl Browne," to pr? sent the
resolutions personally to the clerk of the
House.

Back to the
Old-Fashioned Way
Of Building a Home
Honest day's labor under the direct personal supervision of the builder. That was
the old-fashioned way of building a home, and it is because of this old tried and found
true method of years gone by that homes erected a century or more ago will still sur
vive longer than many neglected houses that have been built in recent years.

Streets N.E.
There are only 12 of these
homes, and in your own inter
ests we want you to see them
before they are all sold. YYe
want you to inspect them
carefully and make a compari
son with the average "built to
sell" home, of which you have
seen so much?want you to
notice as well as the bigger
things such minute details as
the fact that instead of having
a light wash of paint on the
front aad back, that these
homes have been given three
full coats. It doesn't cost the
builder any more to see that he gets three coats the "day's labor" way than to have an
unscrupulous contractor put on a light wash?and so it is throughout the entire home.
Briefly described, these homes have six rooms and full tiled bath in addition to an
extra deep hall; the exteriors are of beautiful pressed brir* each home has two porches;
the front one being of spacious Colonial design with may pillars. Each home is situ
ated on a beautiful terraced lawn, and cement steps and walks lead from the pavement
to houses.
The interior trimmings are gi\en the natural finish of the wood, producing a very
beautiful effect. There is an art mantel in 1 he parlor and another in the dining room.
Handsome brass lighting fixtures throughout the entire house?electric lights.
The kitchen is a model of convenience and household utility. In addition to all
other regular kitchen conveniences it contains a large pantry with window for lighting
and ventilating purposes and a large size Hoosier Kitchen Cabinet, the greatest time and
labor-saving kitchen device ever invented, with it# separate bins for flour, sugar, coffee,
tea and spice receptacles, cupboards, drawers, ironing board, etc.?a kitchen convenience
that will be found in but verv few of the highest priced houses.
