ECCENTRIC ENGINEERS.

Resolutions Passed Regarding the Erec-
ton and Operation of Steam Elevators.
At a recent meeting of the Association of Ec-
centric Engineers the following preamble and
resolutions were passed;
Whereas the late fire Of the Messrs. Stumph's
factory has brought TO view three facts: First,
that the building Inspectors office is terribly
out OF repair and that the regulation pertain
ing 10 the erection OF elevators should be 50
amended that no elevator should be erected
whose motive power is n belt; second that while
The press OF this city whiuewashed the case, We
firmly believe that IL the building inspector is a
bonded officer there is sufficient cause tor dam
age against him for the malicious neglectful-
ness Of the said inspector; third, that Mr. +. B.
SJumph IS the licensed engineer Tor that plant,
ana frequently before the fire he could have
been seen almost any time many sluar e5 away
from the sal steam plant: and
Whereas II there Is not a stop put 10 the prac-
tice Of the employer getting out licenses from
competent man 10 operate the steam plant,
when they. the employers, are miles away,
may look Tor recurrence OF what did happen at
Lamon a few years ago; and
Whereas we, the Eccentric Association OF
Steam Engineers, fully believing that if the ele-
vator could nave been seen there would not have
been a life lost: therefore, be il
Resolved, That this association humbly sug-
gest to the honorable Commissioners to so
amend the regulations pertaining TO the cree
ton of elevators that no belt, band or chain be
used as motive power; that hydraulic power or
steam direct be applied.
Resolved further, That we as engineers who
had to serve an apprenticeship, in many iu-
stances, Of four or five years, most hUmbly re-
quest the honorable Commissioners to issue such
orders TO Major Moore as will cause the arrest of
aav one violating the engineers license law
Finally be ii resolved, That these resolutions
be given to the press and copy be forwarded
60 the Commissioners of the District of Column
bia, also that they be recorded on the minutes
OF the association.

throw a little side-light on the question
''ln 1891, was putting mp hve-story build
ing for George -. Mueller at 336 Pennsylvania
he said "aud Ar. Mueller asked that the nine
inch party Wall Of the adjoining building at No
BIS re condemned. so that n new wall, eighteen
inches 10 the second story and thirteen inches
above that could be put UP.
MIR Emtwiale condemned the wall, which
was ia bad repair and out Of plumb but after
ward revoked his first decision, saying that the
old wall was good enough.
Mr. Mueller then appealed 10 the District
Commissioners, who appointed an architect and
TWO practical builders % examine the wall Mr..
Mueller hired local expert and a United States
Army engineer officer, and these five men con-
demned the structure.
Mr. Mueller was then granted permit TO
build in accordance with his original plans, but
was afterwards sued 10y the owner Of the other
building. Judge Bingham decided in his favor
but Mr. Entwisles decision cost him much delay
and large expense, and shows that his statement
with regard 10 the Stumph walls is not borne
out by the facts, for he knew that our building
was 90 be used as a factory, but tried 10 compel
me TO use a nine-inch wall, while the Stumph

Help Asked for the People Left Destitute
by the Stumph Fire.
The terrible calamity at the mattress factory
of Stumph Brother, whereby seven persons
lost their lives, has rendered utterly destitute
and without means of support several women,
some of whom have aged parents and minor
children dependent upon them. Unable to
care for themselves they are still less able to
provide for those most dear to them, and their
who feels for the poor, the sick, and the I'M
fortunate. THE TIMES undertakes the raising
of a sum sufficient to meet the most pressing
wants of these women so suddenly robbed of
all most dear to them, and it trusts that the
appeal will be responded to in that manner
which has so often before this made the peo-
pie of Washington famous for their noble and
generous charity.
Let everyone contribute his or her share;
let no one hesitate about giving because the
amount is small. The widows mite will be
as acceptable as the bankers check, and all
that is given will be contributed in the best
ana noblest cause.
All contributions sent to THE TIMES will be
duly acknowledged.
Give, but give quickly.
