 "To the above estimate must be added 5 per cent as profit for the general contractor and as a margin to protect him against loss by &C., cidents, miscalculations, errors of setting out the works, etc., making in all a total estimate of $1,496, ,137.
 'In the above estimate nothing has been included but the building proper, the question of whether the approaches and terraces are or arc not a part of the building being a matter that your board can readily decide. The cost of completing these terraces and approaches I es- timate at $7O,627.
 The report is quite lengthy, but the most important features fol- low:
 'In my opinion the building if properly redesigned, need not cost over one million dollars and yet could be placed upon the present foundations, but a better result from that expenditure can be had if the building occupies smaller area, in which case by skillful planning, much of the existing work might be utilized. In other words, you can cut in quality of work or in size of building, but advise a smaller building of high quality. yet large enough for the needs of the state, rather than one of great size and inferior quality. Unless compelled by the law your commission should not insist on utilizing all the ex- isting work since better result can be had by adapting the present foundations to building planned with the economies of space advised in my report
 "The general plan adopted is a well known and approved type for state capitols. It consists of a great rotunda for the circulation of the public, centrally placed, and ex- pressed on the exterior by means of a dome of sufficient importance to dominate the entire mass and wing buildings connecting the central mass with the end masses in which the upper and lower legis- lative chambers, each expressed on the exterior by dome low enough not to conflict with the central feature. The plan in general in my opinion is we'll suited to the needs of a state of increasing natural prosperity and advancing intellec- tual standard. Broadly speaking then the state may be said to have secured a design worthy of erection and distinctly superior to that of the average state capitol"
 'It is obvious from section 10 of the act that it will be the duty of MT. Mann to remodel the drawings so that a building can be constructed in accordance with them at a cost not to exceed $1,OO0,O00." . The board referred the plans back to Architect Mann with instructions to modify the same so as to bring the cost of the structure within the million dollar limit
