CASEY'S REPORT. Col. T. L. Casey has submitted to the Secretary of War his annual report of operations upon the Dullding for the State, War and Navy Department since October 1, 1886. He states that work has continued steadily on the west and center wings and the approaches of the west front throughout the year, “The tron work of the roof was entirely finished on January 18, 1887, but the last derrick was taken down November 10, ’86, and the root covering essentially finished at the beginning of winter. Slating was finished on December 9, and plastering was begun on January 4. The latter was completed in June, '87. ‘The heating appara- {us was put in operation October 15, "86, and Was continued under neat throughout the winter to keep the building suMictently dry and in condition for Interior operations, ‘The construction of the ap- roaches Was begun June 13, "87, and the masonry, Including the 17th-street sidewalk: flagging, Was finished by the setting of one of the top steps of the west main entrance on September 17, '87. This 1s THE LAST STONE OF THE BUILDING, the first having been set February 2, 1872, in the south wing. On May 23, 1887, the marble tling of corridors was begun, and on July 21 the laying of loor boards tn ‘office rooms. Both of these operations are nearly finished. The bronze bulus- ters for the main stairways have all been pro- cured, and the mahogany Tall has been made nearly ready to go Into place. ‘The stairway dome in iron work has been tlaished and patnved. It ty how ready to receive the glass. . The iron work of the library room, occupying the attic story of the center pavillon, has been long delayed in the hands of the Contractors, but fs now going Into place and will probably be ‘finished without tur- Y OF interruption. All contracts of tin- tance for materials and work have been made In ood season and are well in hand, All the win- dows are hung and every branch of the work re- quired for the full completion of the building 1s under way in proper order. With the exception of the library room, 1t is ‘suli expected, as expressed in the last two annual reports, that ‘the building will be entirely finished and READY FOR OCCUPANCY IN JANUARY NEXT. The principal items of work remaining to be done are the completion of the painting, hanging of doors, glazing of statrway dome, the iron work, painting, tiling, and glazing of the Ubrary, erec- Uon of elevators and fronts and finishing the Wells, putting up the matn stair-raiiing, hanging the gas fixtures and setting up the marble man- tel.” On the exterior of the butiding the soddin, of the approaches, erection of the ron fence au ates, cleaning down the masonry, and asphalt ing Ube driveways are yet to be done, SUFFICIENT FUNDS ON HAND.
