etc, met yesterday afternoon IN the office
of Surgeon General Sternherg, the chair
man Of the committee.
There were present besides the chairman
Bishop Satterlee, John JOY Edison, DR.. l. W.
Ritohie and Secretary George S. Wilson.
There was considerable discussion OF a
preliminary character relative to the work
of the committee. Special attention was
given to the problem Of proper dwellings
forthepoor and thecleaningout of the alleys.
Some reports of what has been done by
European and American cItiesiu this matter
were considered.
The committee has resolved to give the
matterthorou gh considerable and will begin
by accquainting Itself with thelocal condi-
tions-
In order to get as definite information
as possible as 10 the present condition

CONATY TO ASSUME CHARGE
Will Become Rector of Catholic
University January 10.
Cardinal Gibbons Expected to Make
Statement Clearing Up Mis-
apprehensions.

The invitations for the installation cere-
mony, hy which Rev. Thomas j. Conaty

apostolic and the papaI benedictiOn es-
pecially conveyed by the pope for this oC-
casiOn.
The main feature OF the event Will be
Dr. COnaty's inaugural address. He has
promised in this speech to tnunciate in
unmistakable terms the policy which Will
be followed during his regime. AS il is
known that Mr.. Conaty received, a few
weeks ago, special letter OF instructions

MR.. TASKER WILL RESIGN
Compelled to ReIinquish Presidency
Of District Epworth League.
Must Devote More Time to His
Private Business-ElectiOn of
q superintendent.

Mr.. Fred Z. Tasker, who for more than
two years has been president of the Dis
trict Epworth League, will tender his
resignation at the meeting Of the board
OF control which VIII be held tomorrow
evening at Foundry NJ i. Church.
The heanEouncementoft of tn e determinations of
Mr.. Tasker 10 sever his official connection
with the District league viii be Il great
surprise TO the leaguers of the city and viii
be universally regretted, for, during his
term q S president, Mr.. TaSker has shown
marked executive ability in the administra-
ton of the affairs of the league.
During Mr.. Taskers terms of administra
ton the membership has steadily increased,
nearly 1000 members being enrolled dur
ing the last two years in the two branches.
When seen yesterday MIR. Tasker was
somewhat surprised to find that his secret
had often out, but ackiiO wledged the fact
and said that much as he regretted the
necessity he would tender his resignation
tomorrow evening. This course, he said,
was made compulsory by the pressure OF
private business.
He has been trying hard ever since last
fall to make both ends meet, but finally
affairs came to such Il point that it was
Impossible. He had eittier to neglect
the business of the league or his duty to
his clients if he continued To held the
presidency, 50 in Justice to all concerned
lie decided to resign.
Up to yesterday Ic had only communi-
Gated his detc -Inination to one or two Of
his friends one Of which was Rev. DR..
Luther B. Wilson +. T. who was anxious
that ne should reconsider his determination
before the meeting Of the beard Of control
Mr.. TaSker, while having the highest
regard for the wishes and opinion Of Rev.
Dr.. Wilson, feels that justice To himself,
aS well as to the league upbolds him in
the course he has decided on. His resi- gna-
ton. lie says. should in no way effect the
steady development of the league in the
District, for there are many gentlemen
of ability who have the time and who are
wrapped up in the work, and who would
take a deep interest in forwarding the
affairs Of the organization.
Another important matter which will
engage the attention of the meeting OF
the board of control on Wednesday even
ing will be the election OF a superin-
tendent for the junior department of the
league. 1t is reported that Miss CrumD,
who formerly filled the position some years
ago, will again be asked to accept the
office, and every effort will be made to
induce her Co enter a field OF work where
she has been SO cIniuently successful
The successor to Mr.. Tasker will not be
chosen until the next regular meeting Of
the board in February.

Marvellous Switchboard.

In the same room is the switchboard, a
marvel in itself and designed almost en-
tirely by Mr.. Taplcy. The board contains
five panels and four switches to a panel.
Light or power is regulated at the same
switch. There are in the building 5000
incandesccnt lights OF sixteen candle
power each. The whole plant has not
more than half a score Of arc lights. They
are OF no use, the experts say, in IL
printing office, where shadows are so
abundant. The switchboard alone Cost
Sc 900.
From this room insulated cables run
TO ali parts of the great building. At
present the power is used in III motors.
They are used for every purpose, from
the running of sewing machines and stitch
erS TO operation Of the largest presses.
In the latter class of work probably the
greatest advantages have accrued, and
there are few presses in the office that are
not now run by electricity.
1t is said that 15 or 20 per cent more
work can he done on the electric presses
than on the old ones. The presses them.
selves are, OF course, the same, but the
generating power and the contrvauceSs
surrounding the press are entirely differ
ent. woman may control the greatcSSt
preSsNn now with perfect ease and move the
cylinder one-fourth OF an inch or set it
agOng at several hundred revolutions a
minute at will.
In connection with every one of the
newly-arranged presses is circuit -brea ker
that prevents overcrow ding the press. 1t
works automatically, and when any foreign
body impedes the progress, the current is
Instantly cut off, and the machine stops
In addition, the pressroom i'll itself is an
object lesson in favor of the new DOW nr
The portion of the main room that is
yet under the sway Of the old forces is
dirty and dingy. The space above around
and about the electric presses is clean and
neat, and the atmosphere almost as whole
some as In the open air.
Nor are the workmeu and workwomen
responsible for the condition of the room
around the steam presses. The ceiling
is shadow ell with belts and hating. Ma
turally the changes in temperature have
their effects upon the belts, and cause them
60 shrink OF stretch. Each change causes
