The repairs dope to stations three, four and eight by the District amounts to $500.45, aud cn the rented stations the sun of $96 for interior repairs, as the owners of the bulidings have teen required to make the extertor re pairs at their own expense. The rented sta- Uons are inferior to those owned by the Dis- trict, and cannot be made suitable without considerable expense. The attention of the Comunisstoners 1s again called to the very In- sanitary condition of the Fifth precinct station on 10th, between D and E streets, where much ckness has prevailed among ‘the offivers during the past year. He recommends that the Disti ict constract as soon as possible their own station, as well for convenience as for economy and comtort of the men.

The ball on , Maseachusetts avenue, between a Isth streets, was completed and accepted Sep- tember 1, and $36,215 0f the appropriation has been expended, leaving a balance of $1,254, which is about the amount contracted for the furniture. ‘The other building is situated on C, between 4th and 5th streets northeast, fronting on Stanton square. It was completed and ac- cepted September 3. There being no large as- sembly room in that division (5) it was deemed advisable to make provision for such in this building, and to Uns end Congress appropriated a further sum of $7,500 by act of June 16 for such purpose, making the total sum appro- priated for this. eyed $45,000, which has been expended, leaving a Ce Of $4,363, which is about the amount contracted for furnishing the building complete and poring in gas fixtures, These Uwo buildings will compare fa’ with any buildings of their capacity in the country.

The schools in the city have in most cases the same evidence of having been ne- glected in their repairs. I found it necessary to materially change the original estimates fur- nished me; and in order to keep within the ap- propriation, I left off such items as were not in my opinion very necessary. order 10 have ie work done as e00- nomical 28 ible, I gave all the jobs that could contracted for in competi- Uon. Other portions of which were of a tr thing amount, and difficult to estimate or con! for were done by day's labor, or entrusted to persons upon whom I was satisfied I could rely for a good quality of work at reasonable prices, I gave out 142 coptracts, amounting in the ag- gregate to $12,528.96. By comparing parallel casts] find thai Uhis contract system has been asavipg of about 30 per cent over the system of day’s work, as previously followed by the mechanical janitors, under the direction of the trustees.

I would again state that I believe It to be the best interests of the rict Ubat the repairs to the public schools as ell as to all District _bulidings should be done through Ubis office, I will then be able to coi duct the work properly and account for the ex- penditures. The various school buildings are now in a tolerably fair state of repairs, bat there are several of the large butldings that need paintirg, and I would therefore recom- mend an appropriation of §20,000 for repairs during the years 1ss1-2, ENGINE HOUSES.
