Keith yesterday wired the Department at Washington the names of several of Wilmington's architects who could furnish plans for the ground work of the Federal building here, $600,000 for the erection of which has been appropriated. This indicates tnat the department officials are getting to work in the local project. The department requested Mr. Keith that in the event it was so sfd. 1 the authorities, the State would not be sent to the front it might be required to at the different to do this, stating that wortc will now Tlu1 AND THE FAMOUS LILUPUTIANS.

A of Wilmington men will be called shortly to take active steps to push the campaign. One rather surprising and at the same time pleasing feature of the endorsements is the fact that Wilmington is receiving generous support from.

South Carolina business Even a few from Charleston, S. which is also after, the bank, have been received. One sturdy South Carolinian writes that he signed his own name to the list but was not satisfied, so he rode eight miles to his nearest business neighbor and secured signature also. The central committee, 0f which Mr. Hugh MacRae is the chairfnan, will within-the nekr future call a general meeting of the citizens of the city at which the.

matter will be gone into thoroughly, and plans made for pushing the campaign.

Mr.

Keith stated yesterday that one of the officials told him recently that the custodian of the new building would receive one per cent, of the money to be expended on its erection. This amounts to $6,000 which his successor, Col. Walker Taylor, will receive. Mr. Keith said he was very much surprised to learn this, as he had been ignorant of this fact during the years he has been engaged in working for the new customs house.

The quarter just ended broke all previous records for exports and imports, the exports tripling those of the corresponding quarter of last year. This tends to show that the building of a fine customs house here is not a mistake, or will its early erection cause it to come too soon. l0U i. on the sick list in an active 'Jill 411 LIl OIVIV Ull Hi 1X1 LO a bjS ii! rw i he of ii worst uuiicuiues. ine sec on is to keep from the inev- I 1 i A 1 UV i.ir-p pension list mose wnoso tensively in a chain of hotels in North and South Carolina, will be in personal charge of the Cape Fear.

T. A. Green, also a heavy stockholder, who has had charge of the erection of the building, said today that the seven stories that have been placed so far will be at once pushed to completion, and that work on the remaining eighth, ninth and tenth stories, which has been temporarily suspended, will be resumed next week. However, it is expected that the lower seven floors will be open for guests before the upper portion of the building has been completed. Interior will be very pretty.

The floor of the lobby will be laid in tile, and the columns will be sheathed in brown marble. As one enters the main door on Front street to the right a short way down the lobby will be found the office, and next to ft the elevator. Further down will be found the spacious dining room. Plate glass and mirrors will be in abundance. The interior of the first floor is expected to be strikingly pretty.

The walls and ceiling of the upper floors will be glittering white. All are conveniently arranged to the elevator. The hotel, says Mr. Green, will be a high class commercial hotel, operated upon popular rates. Its being so closely situated to the union station is expected to make it a popular stopping place for travelers.

Mr. Gresham is heavily interested in a chain of hotels in the Carolinas, located in Charlotte, Charleston, Spartanburg, Florence and other ifficiencics made themselves A one efekeim ot New Hanover Superior J.dourt for the trial of criminal cases will convene Monday morning at lfr o'clock with Judge Chas. M. Cooke, of LKjtirisburg, presiding. Then after of one week the regular two weeks' May term for the trial of civil cases will begin.

Judge Cooke will preside at this term also. The bar of the county will meet at 10:30 o'cloek tomorrow morning in the office of the clerk of Superior Court for the purpose of arranging the calendar for the civil term. There are on the criminal docket for next week a total of 49 cases, included in which are three cases in which murder is charged, though only two are for trial, the defendant in the third having died since the charge was preferred. King Bell, is charged with the killing of Ben Richardson, also colored, and Richardson was charged with killing John Grady, colored. Both negroes died in the hospital following a three-cornered shooting affair, Grady dying a few days after being taken there and Richardson lingering for some days.

Sandy McKoy, colored, will be called to answer the charge of killing another negro in Brooklyn some weeks ago. Bell and McKoy are in jail. Among the other cases of interest are those in which ten local dairymen are charged with violating the State anti-trust law, it being alleged that they entered into a conspiracy to increase the price of milk. The cases were continued at the last term of court. The other cases on the docket are of minor importance.

The clean-up campaign which has been on for.tha past two weeks came to a close last night and Mr. John C. McAllister, superintendent of streets, is highly elated at the results achieved. He is satisfied that the town is cleaner than it has been in a long time and he proposes to use his best efforts to keep it that way.

A total of 1,805 cart "loads of trash and rubbish of every description has been hauled from premises, back lots and alleys during the two weeks. In addition to this, some of the citizens helped in the campaign by hauling a number of loads bf'rash, running the total' well up around cart loads. Last week the street department hauled 1,206 loads of trash; the week before 273 loads were removed from back lots In the' down town district, and this weekJ326 loads were removed from different par'ts of the residential district. better idea of the splendid work of the department for the 'past two weeks is had when it is remembered that previous to this time the greatest number of loads of trash hauled by the department in one month never exceeded 1,200. The new trash ordinance is effective tomorrow; May 1st: AHHTash in the residential district must be placed in receptacles and must be out on the streets by 9 o'clock in the morning.

In the down-town district, from Orange to Red Cross and Second to the river, the trash, paper, etc, must be placed in bags and must be out by 8 o'clock in the morning. Card of Thanks. Superintendent McAllister today issued the following card of thanks to those who have aided in the campaign: "April 30th, 1914.
