sAaY.

The new life saving station to re.
place the one destroyed by the hurri-
cane will be one of the most modern
stations in the service, if the plans
are carried out as contemplated.
Pensacola's commercial Importance
warrants such a station in the opin-
ion of Capt. w. A. Hutchings, the
superintendent of the district. who
has been here for several weeks. It
is probable that the new station with
equipment will cost about $4,000,
but inasmuch as there are at present
no funds available for the erection
of new stations the amount will have
to be appropriated by the next con-
greSs, but as Senator Mallory ana
the general superintendent of the
service are informed as to existing
conditions, it is believed that a bin
appropriating the amount will be
among the first passed by congress.
While the commission appointed by
the department to select a site for
the new life saving station has not
uCNiuCu bhO lOCdllOu
it has about been concluded that the
best location Is a point about a mile
west of the site Of the old station.
Captain Hutchings, chairman of the
commission. and Keeper Broadbent,
keeper Of the station, will make
trip some time to-day to make another
survey of the property under consid-
Grafton, but it is not anticipated by
them that a more desirable location
can be secured. In order to estab-
lish the station there 1t will be neces-
sary to obtain permission from the
war department.
There are several matters to be
taken into consideration in the selec-
ton of a site, all of which the one
under consideration comes nearest
filing than any other point known.
The first and most important is the
safety of the location; the second Is
the facility of approach from both
the gulf and bay: third, the scope of
vision, but the pines around win me-
cessitate the erection Of a much tail.
er tower than is usually in service
at stations: fourth. the health of the
keeper and crew. and fifth. the faciI-
ity OF communication by nearby tele-
phone with the city in case of an
emergency.

Of new site, having been appointed
chairman of the commission, does not
believe that more suitable spot can
be selected than the one under con-
sideration. and II is very probable
that it will be decided upon.

BRICK AND WILL COST ABOUT

PosALs WILL BE INVITED AND
CONSTRUCTION COMMENCED
WITHOUT DELAY.

PLANS for Pensacola's new police
headquarters and jail, were submit
ted to the Board of Bond Trustees
yesterday afternoon, but owing to
mistake In the plans, they were re.
terred back to the architects, Ausfeld
& Blount, to be changed somewhat.
and 1t Is expected that when these
slight changes are made that the
plans will be adopted and submitted
to the council for adoption. While
the new station will not be of the
ornamental kind, the building will be
modern In every respect, and will b.
a vast improvement over the place
now being used. 1t will be of plain
brick and cost about $500. At least
that it the amount available for this
purpose.
The building Is to occupy the site
OF the present station. 1t will be Of
two-stories, and will cover all of the
area south of the present building to
Main street.
On the first floor it Is planned to
have offices for the marshal, record.
er, surgeon. and turnkey, two hos
pital rooms. one for white and one for
colored patients. compartments for
white and colored female prisoners,
kitchen, dining room, etc.
On the second floor will be the court
roo compartments for white ana
colCV male prisoners, two witness
ROOT one for white and one for col
oreJi room for patrolmen in which
will be lockers for their equipment,
reading and drill room for patrol
men, etc.
1t Is not expected that there will
be any delay in awarding the con-
tract for constructing the building.
The condition of the place now being
used makes it very essential that
some steps be taken at once to pro-
vide new quarters, and as soon as the
architects submit their new plans 1t
is expected that they will be forward
ed to the council, and If there is no
objection on the part of that body to
the plans, proposals will be invited
for the immediate construction OF
the building.
