Continues Dull
Contractors Thinks Business
Would Improve If Con
greSS Would Adjourn
BEGIN HOSPITAL
ADDITION NEXT WEEK

While the present business depres-
sion is being keenly felt in building
trade circles, the majority OF archie
tects, contractors and realty men are
optimistic and believe conditions will
improve before fall Fact that
railroads entering the city and manu-
facturers and wholesalers doing bust
ness here are finding the situation
none too good Is having its effect on
contractors. The tightening of the
money market is another factor in
the situation.
Dullness will be relieved next week
when the A. S, Reed and Brother
commence operations on the addition
for the Delaware Hospital. This
structure will cost 100000. The con-
tractors expect TO have It finished by
the first Of next year. Every effort
will be made to rush the work and It
is probable large force will be em-
ployed by the company.
Speaking of the general situation
in the contracting line Mr.. Reed said !.
Il have never seen so many carpen-
ters and other mechanics out Of work.
Conditions are bad, for outside OF the
Delaware State Hospital job and a
few residences. there is little doing.
Persons for whom we have built
houses are finding it impossible to
pay for them at this time This does
not help us. as we are forced to carry
the properties
1T is my opinion that the prompt
adjournment OF Congress would ma
terially aid matters. II both the
Senate and House would Immediately
end their sessions and go home CON
ditions would be much improved by

on the addition for the Delaware

to the job by Tuesday morning. Work
will be hurried as rapidly as possi-
