A meeting of the Board of Citv Trusts
was held yesterday, at the office of the Girard
Trust, on Fifth street, above Chesnut Presi
dent William welsh in the chair.

who, as usual, was present, presented his re

lege. After some explanations, the various
items of the report were referred to their ap
propriate committees with power to act.
Mr. George 11. Stuart, chairman of the
Committee on Household, reported that there

Mr. John II. Michener, Chairman of the

gage, viz: 133 feet each on Eighteenth and
Nineteenth streets, and 220 feet on Race,
leaving the present size of the hospital lot
180 feet on Race street, extending of that
width through to Cherry street 288 feet. The
price obtained for the lots was $1.14,13384.
These lots have all been occupied by hand
some dwellings, the interest on the mort
gages amounting to $8018. In view of the
increase of the means of the hospital, the late
board of managers contemplated certain
alterations and additions to the building,
which the largely-increased work of the hos
pital seemed imperatively to demand.
No definite plan had been decided upon,
but favorite jdea with some of the late
board of managers was the erection of a
suitable building on the Cherry-street front,
with an entrance and exit on that street, for
the treatment of the largely increased class of
clinical patients, thus leaving the present
building, with some alterations, such as an
increase in the height of the stories or the
addition of a French roof, for the better
accommodation of those patients whose con
dition nenessarily confines them to the wards
of the hospital. It was further in contempla
tion to increase the medical staff, so as to
afford closer examination into and attention
to individual cases. Adjourned.
