BUILDING STATISTICS.
April, 1901, Shows a Gain of $3.50
Per Cent. Over April, 1900, Here.

Statistics of building operations for April
in twenty-one of the principal cities
throughout the country, according to the
special official reports to Construction
News, show a gratifying increase as COM
pared with the corresponding month a year
ago. In twenty-one cities permits were
taken out for the construction of $3.50 build
ing improvements, involving an expendi-
ture OF s57 ,S57.0l7, against 5.746 a year ago
costing SIS .937. being an increase of 1914
buildings and S39,OS7 $50 in cost. or 20s.24 per
cent, being over double the increase for the
month of March. 1t was thought that,
owing to the activity in the early part OF
the year, due to the opening OF the build
ing season far in advance of previous years,
that there would be a falling off in the
figures later on, but such does not seem TO
be the case. There is, however, every rea-
son TO believe that operations will from
this time on increase rather than diminish,
owing to The large number of new projects
which are now accommodating on the hands
of the architects throughout the country.
The figures in detail are follows:

In his address at Lafayette. Thursday
evening, Governor Durbin made some dec
larations regarding the management of the
States institutions that will meet the APP
probation of the more intelligent people
OF Indiana. The nonpartisan management
OF the States institutions on business prin-
ciples never had a more strenuous advo-
cate than the late General Harrison. In
the best meaning Of the word he was
partisan in respect to national policies,
but when it came TO the management of
the States Institutions he believed that
ability and efficiency should be the test
of admission to the States service and that
faithful service is the best claim for con-
tinuance in the public employment. To
these views Governor Durbin subscribes.

his belief in the nonpartisan policy of In
