Tho 'announce ment has been officially mado that $1, 000,000 has been conditionally promised by a wealthy New Yorker toward the erection and endowment of a united lino arts buildine to house tho dozen societies composing tho Fine Arts Fedt eration. This scheme, formulated) sev eral years ago, has received fresh im petus since tho union of tho National Academv of Desien and tho Society of American artists, as was expected. John W. Alexandor, n member of the council of tho National Academy of Design, has estimated tho cost of financing tho scheme at $3,000,000 at least, appropriating $1,000,000 each for sito, building and endowment. Oth er artists, however, maintain tnat a sito in tho central part of tho city will cost moro than $1,000,000.
