COST OF MANUFAC TURING GAS AT THE IN
SANE HOSPITAL.
10 tie EdItor of tie LeaQer.

To tie Editor Of the Leader!
Your reporter who accompanied the
legislative Committee in their late visit of
inspection to the Insane Hospital was
evidently misled in reference to the ex-
pense ofmanufacturing gas at that insti-
tuition. He makes the statementthat the
cost is eighty nine cents per thousand
feet. Let facts and figures be submitted
to the public, who are somewhat interes-
ted in the question.
During the fiscal year 1876, there was
consumed in the institution tn, 800 feet
of gas. The building, occupied to its
full capacity, will not require over one
million feet of gas for the year, The
city company proposed to give bond
to furnish it for ten years or more at ST.
75 per thousand feet which would make
the cost, estimating the amount consum-
ed at one million feet, $I,75o,oo per year.
Now let us submit the expense to the
State ofmanufacturing its own gas.
Pay of two employees, including board and
lodging at $4per day........".$I 400 90
I25 tons coal, $4, 80 per ton.....~ 537 50
200 bushels lime, 3oc per bushel,.. 90 90
Retorts and resetting............" 100 90
S2,157 50
Here we have an expense of $2,I5 per
thousand feet. Now add to this the in
terest of SIC, 900 the cost Of building,
legitimate item, as the State is paying in
terest on money borrowed and it will
add 5000 to the expense, making it cost
he State not less than SO per thousand
feet, instead of Soc. as represented. If
the Legislature should make an appro-
priation TO remove the Pump House to
the place recommended, the services of
one man will be dispensed with thereby
saving $500 year, but the State will
never be able to make gas for the insti-
tuition at as small an expense as it can be
supplied from the city main. opposed
the erection of the works on the ground
of economy to the State, and experience
in the manufacture since in operation,
proves was correct
