COST OF HALL APPROTED.
Groufs Expert Calls Horgo'a 6 Stat
tery'S Price Not EGcessiUe.

The Tribune about month ago printed an ar
ticle in which 1t charged that the estimated cost
by Horgan G. Slattery. the architects. for the
new Hall of Records was excessive and that the
work was not being pushed to completion as
rapidly It should be. Controller Grout turned
the case over to Chandler Wilmington of his ensi-
neering staff. Mr. wilmington made his report
yesterday
In his opinion he says. the cost OF the build
ing may be considered expensive for an office
building, but for a monumental city building it
should not be considered excessively expensive
building
He says further: ''The item that may be con-
sidered as unnecessary expenditure is the one
for some Of the plaster partitions. rearrangernent
Of some Of the plumbing. steam heating and ven
tilating."
Mr.. Wilmington saws in his report that "the late
John r. Thomas drew his plans and specifications
for a grand massive building without subdivision
for the respective offices of each department The
doing of this work at this time may possibly cost
from $4,000 $40 600 than If il had been in
cluded in the contract of John Ferce. known as
contract No - .
He then gives comparison of the cost per cubic
foot for the New-York Public Library building at
42d-st. and 5th-aHe., and for the new Hall or
Records His figures show that the cost in the
latter case is the greater. -
Mr. Wilmington says that in his estimation the
charges of Horgan & Slattery are not excessive.
