Millions for Buildings at Washington.
M<iy 4.— The recommendation of tho
senate committee on public buildings
and mounds of tho passago of a bill
appropriating $3,000,000 for tho pur-
ehui o of a silo adjoining tho Treas-
ury building for tho erection of a four
story granite building to cost approxi-
mately $0,500,000 for tho joint use of
Hie Departments of State, Justice and
Commerce and Labor, has brought to
light a flood of Interesting figures as
to the cost of tho great government
buildings in tho nation's capital. The
following is tlio cost of tho seven prin-
cipal structures now occupied:
government buildings, tho sum of
$349,206 annually. Tho magnltudo of
these groat buildings will bo bettor ap-
proached when it is stated that oach
one of them houses during working
hours enough clerks to make a
nico sized western town. Normally in
tho State, War and Navy building
thero are 1,925 employes; during the
Spanish-American war there were
3,100 employes iat work in tho build-
ing. The Treasury building houses
2,000 employes. In tho Post Office de-
partment building there laro employed
between 900 and 1,000 employs, be-
sides those employed by tho city post
offieo which is housed in tho same
building.
In addition to all this, Washington
dreams of a magnificent temple of
Justice for tho housing of tho supreme

Tho total cost of buildings com-
pleted and under construction, includ-
ing cost of sites, approximates sixty-
live millions of dollars, yet iu addition
to this tho government pays out in
rents for departments', bureaus, etc.,
that can not bo accommodated in tho
court. There is nothing moderate in
this great capital. Everything is on
a scale of magnificent proportions, and
tho dream of the temple of justice is
one of such splendor that years of
study aro being given to it before even
the outline takes definite shape.
