Upon careful exnmimtion. I ond

the City Building in e. very unsanitary condition and -I desire to call your ab tentlon to it in order that it may be placed before the Board of Health. That part of the building occupied by the Mashal and policemen is dirty. unsanitery and the crevlces in the wall show the abiding places uf bugs, etc. Fumigatlon by formoldehlde and sulphur and other disinfeqtams has been tried without success. I be iieve the walls of the building are l\on.e\'combed with bugs. The part of the building used by the firemen is in a like condition, and the sleep- ing room' of the watchman is en- tirely too small for proper air space. The sewerage arrangements for the firemen are far from satisfactory; and

Hiere is too free access for the pub» c. I strangely recommend a complete

renovation ol' the building air the only way or rc-medylng those glaring sanitary defects-_
