The National Hospitals and Custom
Buildings.

. WASHINGTON, December 1.-THE super
vising architect of the Treasury makes q
report urging the sale of the custom-houses
at Charleston, S. c., and Plymouth, N. c.,
the former being ruin and nuisance. he
advocates large hospitals rather than many
small ones. While there are no marine hos.
pitfalls at New York, Philadelphia, and Bal
timorc, they have such buildings ct Bur-
lington, Iowa, Burlington, VT, and Ocra-
coke Inlet, North Carolina, places where
it is, he thinks, difficult to imagine any
reason for their erection except desire to
cXpend money in that locality. He recon-
mends the sale Of the hospitals at Vicks.
burg, Natchez, Ocracoke, n. c., Winning
ton. n. c., and New Orleans-the last
named being an unfinished pile of cast iron,
already costing 1927 1894. and cannot be re.
paired. Like the custom-house in that city,
it is monument of the incapacity Of the
designers and contractors. The Sedgwlck
hospital, in New Orleans, should be trans
ferred from the War Department to the
marine hospital establishment.
