Department Store, Annex to
Piedmont and Raising
of Grades.
Edwin P. Ansley, real estate agent
and developer of Analey Park, an
nounced Wednesday a plan by which
he expects to convert North Forsyth*
■t from Marietta to Peachtree. Into a
retail and office thoroughfare, with a
■olid line of fireproof buildings on
either aide. The cost of the proposed
Improvements runs Into the millions.
To finance the development of For
syth-st.. Mr. Analey says he will form a
real estate truat company with offices In
a big building to be erected at the cor
ner of Luckle and Forsyth-sts., just
opposite the Piedmont Hotel.
Plans for five other large buddings
on this street are under way, Mr. Ans
ley states. They are:
The Studio Budding, to be erected
by John W. Grant, the contracts haring
already been awarded.
The Piedmont Hotel Annex, to he
built by George Parrott.
The Steiner justness building, to be
erected by Albert Steiner.
A large department store, to he built*
by Will Healy.
Five stores to be constructed by the
J. M. High Co., so arranged aa to permit
their being converted Into one large de
partment store.
Option on Four Blooks.
Mr. Ansley - * first step was to secure
options upon all available property In
the four blocks,' outlining to the owners
his plans and securing their co-opera
tion.
The next move was to petition council
to raise the grade of Forsyth-st. from
Luckle to Peachtreeet., which was
granted. The sharp Incline from Peach
tree to Luckle haB heretofore been a
serious drawback to the development of
Forsyth-st. The city council author
ised Its being raised about three feet,
but ft has been suggested that to raise
It about seven feet, giving a straight
DIRECTORS ADOPT
Will Go Before Council
Committee to Urge Bond
Issue.
Unanimously the directors of the
Chamber of Commerce adopted the re
port of the bond Issue committee rec
ommending that $1,500,000 In bonds be
Issued for water, sewers and schools,
when they met at noon Wednesday.
They also decided to go In a body to
present the report to the finance com
mittee of council at Its meeting Wed
nesday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock.
With one dissenting vote, the report
asking for a 31,500,000 bond Issue was
finally adopted by the committee of
twenty-five fit the Chamber of Com
merce which held a meeting Tuesday
afternoon. Hugh T. Inman was the
only ons to oppose the report, altho at
the outset of the Investigation there
were many who objected tq the Issu
ance of bonds.
For the past month the various sub
committees have been studying ex
haustively various phases of municipal
affairs and the Information they ob
tained was responsible for a change In
the'attltude of those who at first opposed
the bonds. Of this 31,600,000 the com
mittee recommends that 3600.000 go for
schools, 3600,000 for the Improvement
of the sewerage system and 3600,000 for
the enlargement of the waterworks.
No date for the bond election was
namsd, but.lt I* hardly probable that
It will he held before next spring. K.
V. Carter advocated holding It early In
1000, hut It was thought best to leavs
that undecided.
A campaign of education to arouse
the people to a realisation of the press
ing needs of the city will be conducted
by the Chamber of Commerce. The
condition of the old wooden schools, the
lack of sewerage facilities, the need
for more water and many other ques
tions have been looked Into and the
chamber will make public the facte
which It le believed will result In the
passage of the bonds.
In addition to the bond Issue the re
port advocates the restoration of ths
it. This would Interfere with the base
ment room of the Piedmont Hotel, but
It has also been suggested that the
property owners may contribute pro
portionately to reimburse the hotel for
any damage.
At present. North Forsyth-st. Is
little Importance as a business street,
but with the erection of the new post-
offlee at Walton and Forsyth-ete. It will
Immediately Increase In value. The
new Bijou Theater now being built at
Carnegie Way and Sprlng-st. will also
encourage development In this section,
John W. Grant has already let con
tracts for his three-stoned studio
building at Janes and Forsyth-sts. This
will cost all told about 323,000, and will
be erected during the year.
Co-operation Is the key note of Mr.
AnMey's plan. In addition to correct
ing the grade at the north end of For-
eyth-et., he urges that the underpass
In the Forsyth-st. viaduct be closed,
es they are of comparatively little use
et present owing to the heavy grads
down to the railroad tracks.
In an Interview given out Wednesday
morning Mr. Ansley stated plainly what
he expects to do. His plan Is remarka
ble In many ways and he says he Is In
a position to carry It out.
Meks Big Improvements.
"It Is true," he said, “that I have
taken options on every property on
Forsyth-st., between Peachtree and
Marietta, that can be bought, and the
prices I am undertaking to get for these
property owners will be considered by
many uninformed ones to b* exceed
ingly high, but I expect to demonstrate
that by making this part of Forsyth-st.
the most modem up-to-date street, not
only In Atlanta, but In the South, that
the present prices can and will be
doubled, or at least show a handsome
Income on the cost of the loU and the
Improvements proposed to be placed on
'hem. Imagine this street as one block
after another of solid fire-proof build
ings, with all the first floor* ehowlng
nothing but plate glass and all Illumi
nated with electricity, and you can »*e
the Foreythet. of the future.
“1 have been perfectly frank and
open In all my dealings with these
owners and have not only proved to
them that I am going to be a benefac,
tor to them, but also a public benefac,
tor.
"I have first shown these owners
what the natural advantages of For
syth-st. are, and then how thee* natu
ral advantages can he aided and Im
proved, by co-operatton between all the
owners on the street
■I have told them that the three
greatest drawbacks to the street are:
Pretent Grade of Street
The present grade of James-st. ruins
the grade of three splendid etreeta right
in ihe heart of Atlanta and practically
'n the butlness center, Forsyth, Falrlle
and Cone-sts, The grades of these
streets can be perfected If Immediate
action le taken by the city council, but
a contract has already been let for a
permanent fire-proof building at the
horthweet comer of Forayth and
James.sts. and unless a perfect perma-
hent grade le established before this
building is erected w* will have three
more business streets with grades like
Hunter. Alabama, Ellis, Harris, Pins
and Merrttts, which are a blot on the
thy. and which largely destroy their
usefulness.
have already secured the consent
of the owners on Forsyth, who will be
most affected, and they not only have
petitioned to have Forsyth-st. put to a
perfect grade, but have agreed to re-
f . y e the city from any damage dons to
tnelr properties as at present Improved.

Possible Changes in
Plans.
BRITAIN’S EX-PREMIER
DIES IN LONDON HOME
LONDON, April 22^Slr Henry
Campbell-Bannerman, ex-premter of
England, died at his home. No. 33 Bel-
grave Square, In this rlty this morning.
Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, be
cause of his position In the affairs of
Great Britain, has been so prominent
In the political life of Great Britain
that his accomplishments during the
closing years of his life need not be de
tailed. His was a busy life and cou
pled with activity was a strength of
purpose of personality, that kept him
constantly in the public eye. Sir Hen
ry was prime minister and first lord
of the treasury since 1905. He was
born In 183t, being the young son of
the late Sir James Campbell, of Stra-
cathro, Forfarshire.
He subsequently assumed the addi
tional name of Bannerman, under the
will of his maternal uncle, the late Sir
Henry Bannerman, of Campbell court,
who left his nephew a great fortune.
The future premier was educated at
Glasgow university and at Trenton
College, Cambridge, and almost Im
mediately entered upon his political
career.
He served as flanclal secretary to the
war office from 1871 to 1874 and from
1880 to 1882; was secretary to the ad-
NEWSPAPERS THAT
mlralty from. 1882 to 1884; was chief
eecretary for Ireland from 1884 to 1888:
and secretary of state for war In 1888
and from 1892 to 1936.
When Sir William Vernon Harcourt
dropped the reins of Liberal leadership
In the houee of commons In the late
nlnetlee, Sir Henry took them up and
during the dark day* of the Boer war
gained widespread admiration, even
outside of Liberal ranks, by the sturdy
manner In which he upheld the funda
mental principles of Liberalism In the
face of a Conservative party Inflamed
by the passions of war. \
When Hon. Arthur J. Balfour resign
ed the premiership In 1906, Sir Henry
was the logical and popular candidate
to eucceed him and was called by the
king to assume the premiership.
A few months later Sir Henry ap
pealed to the country and the Liberal
party wae returned by the largest ma
jority of modern times. Sir Henry
married In 1860 the daughter of the
late General Sir Charles Bryce. K. C.
B., and was left a widower last year.
His London home was at 29 Betgrave
square. In Scotland he lived at Bel
mont castle. Welgle. His clubs Were
tho Athenaum, Brooks, Reform, Ox
ford and Cambridge.

NEW PENSION BILL
WASHINGTON, April 22^-Senator
McCumber, chairman of tho pensions
committee, reported the pension appro- •
prlutlon bill to the eenatc this arter-
noon. The bill I* one of the largest
ever reported from the committee. It
provides for a total of 3163,063,000.
Will the state Democratic executive
committee at Its meeting Friday change
the date for the state primary?
Will the committee change the plan
from the majority rule back to the old
countv unit system?
Will the committee arrange foa the
question of the selection of delegates to
Denver by the people In the case of the
four delegates from the state at large,
and the two to be named from each con.
gresslonal district?
That series of questions Is Just now
agitating the minds of every man In
terested In politics In Georgia—and
there ore mighty few who are not in
terested one way or the other.
Perhops the question Above all others
I* the possibility of the committee re
scinding Its former notion and ordering
a later prlmury—perhaps In August.
That question directly concerns a large
number of candidates, both state and
local. As Indicated In The Georgian
several days ago. capitol officials are
practically n unit In opposing any
change In dale.
It was [minted out by one of the
state officials that to change the date
now would mean. In all probability, op.
position to every state official who now
has none. That the talk of changing
the date Is rife can not bo denied, for It
I* heard In every group of politicians.
There is considerable speculation also
as to tbe question of going back to the
unit system In the counties, when every
county stood on Its own Individual
strength. This Idea, It 1s said, has
strong adherents In the committee.
Albert If. «.’ox. of Atlanta, will prob
ably appear before the committee to
urge his contention of leaving the ques
tion of selecting delegates to 8:. Louis
to the people.
That there will be lively develop
ments In the meeting is believed, and a
