CITY LETS ROOMS
TO THE COMMISSION
All Steps Taken on Her Part
by Which State Leases
Portion Of City Hall.

At special meeting of the Committee
on Grounds and Buildings last night,
a contract between the city of Richmond
and the Commonwealth of Virginia, by
which the latter secures from the for
mer four adjoining rooms of the fourth
floor of the City Hall. was approved.
The rooms will be occupied by the Cor
poration Commission, and tho contract
permits this body to use fifth room on
the same floor for their hearing-a sort
of court room.
Mr. John r. Grimes, chairman of the
committee, was authorized to sign the
contract on part of the city, and he nf-
fixed his signature while the body was
yet In session. All that now remains
to be done Is for Secretary Of tho Com
monwealth Hon. d, @, Eggleston to sign
in behalf of the Commonwealth.
The terms approved by the Committee
on Grounds and Buildings provide for the
payment of a rental of $1,000 for the first
year. $9H for the second. and 1914 for each
succeeding year. 1t is presumed that the
occupancy of the rooms by the Corpora
tlon Commission will entail greater
expense during the first twelve months
than at any other time.
The foregoing result was decided upon
after hearing the report of Messrs. Pol
lock. Grimes and Elicit. subcommittee
who conferred with the City Attorney.
the City Engineer and certain State OIL
cials, They recommended such a rental.
1t Is the Intention of The committee to
put all of the rooms In first class shape.
and 1t is probable the walls will be paint
ed light color. After dsposing OF the
question of rental the committee. on mo-
ton of Mr., Pollock, recommended to the
Council that the pay of the elevator men
be increased ten dollars month and
that the City Engineering Department
be given twenty dollars n month to
meet the cost of additional janitor hire.
