Editorial Notes Codification Section 9 of the act of May 7, 1894, contained the added clause, “the cost of such building not to exceed five thousand dollars, to be paid out of any moneys in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated upon certificate of the Secretary as a voucher therefor,” which was superseded by the provisions contained in section 451 of this title.
