MONEY LOST BY DELAY.
Library Sites Increase in Value OUer
First Estimate.

Dilatoriness IN acquiring sites for Carnegie libra
Ties has cost the city 100000 and above the
estimates Of real estate experts in 1902 Alanson
T. Briggs agent for Carnegie library sites. reported
10 Controller Metz yesterday that hfty-hve sites
out OF seventy-eisht. provided Tor by the gift of
Andrew Carnegie. had been acquired, leaving TWEEN
ty-three sites to be obtained. The total cost Of
sites to-day. including those under process Of
quisition has been estimated at S205S 1893 l5 which,
is average cost OF s378Sl 50 a site Estimates
previously made by Mr.. Briggs placed the cost
a site at lower figure.
The reason for the increase in average cost"
says Mr.. Briggs. is principally due TO the In
creased value OF real estate. When the operation
OF acquiring sites begun in 1902. 1t esti-
mated by me that the total cost of the seventy
eight sites would not be likely 20 exceed S20o0oo
1t IS necessary now 20 increase this estimate by
nearly million dollars because the delay in pro-
viding funds for the acquisition OF sites has made
It impossible 20 acquire properties when they could
be had at bargain prices. and properties have In
creased very greatly IN value since that time.
''Of the twenty-thTes sites yet 10 be acquired to
complete the number OF sites authorized under the
contrast relating TO the Carnegie gift eighteen
