The Com missfoners.

The county commissioners will assemble
tomorrow morning for the purpose of going
out to the new county hospital and inspect
ing It. They were notified last Saturday by
Ryan 81 Walsh that the building was COM
pleted and ready to turn over. Architect
Meyers was notified by telegraph the same
day and requested to be present tomorrow
to go over. the building with the commission
ers. Nothing has been heard from MIR.
Meyers. Superintendent Coots says he
thinks he Is in California. Mr.. Coots will
accompany the commissioners on their trip
of inspection.
The question has been raised whether the
commissioners will accept the building with
out the approval of Architect Meyers. If
they accept it they cannot hold Meyers if
there Is any discrepancy. There IS nothing
in the articles Of agreement between Meyers
and the commissioners, which requires his
presence here at all, and nothing in the con-
tract with Ryan & Walsh, which provides
for its acceptance by Meyers.
The acceptance of the building by the COM
missioners will not be tho last act In the hos
pital farce by any means. The contractors
have signified their intention of submitting q
bill for extras" amounting to from $500 900
to $50, 900. They refuse to state what their
claim for extras Is based on.
