Department to Be Transferred Some
Time This Month.
Plumbing Contract to BE Finished
by June 1S-FurnishinEn Ready
10 Be Put In Place.

The work Of transferring the officials of
the Postoffice Department from the present
quarters to the new building on Pennsyl-
vania Avenue will probably be commenced
shortly before the close of the present
month. Everything now depends on the
contractors who have charge of the work
OF finishing the interior of the building.
The understanding at the Postofice De-
partment is that the transfer will take
place just as soon as the structure is suf-
ficiently complete to permit the clerks to
perform their duties.
Assistant Postmaster General Perry
Heath. when seen this morning, stated that
he was unable to say just when the work
Of transferring the department would be
commenced, but thought 1t would be about
the first Of July. He further stated that
1t will probably require about six weeks
to move all that there is to be transferred
from the present quarters. After that time
the old building will be turned over to the
Interior Department and will probably be
occupied by the Patent ONCE. This Office
has an immense number OF documents
which cannot be properly filed in the lin
tied space OF the present buff9ing. The
Postofice Department, according to pres
ent plans. will retain no space in the old
building.
The work of getting the new building in
shape for occupancy is being pushed as
rapidly as possible. The contractor who
has charge OF the interior finishing has
accomplished his task. Aside
from the oiling of few floors and putting
in a pane Of glass here and there. the
work is done. One of the members Of the
firm in charge Of the work stated today
that by tomorrow night there will be
very little. If anything, to do. The walls
of the inside court have been washed and
the removal of the rubbish is being carried
on. More than LOO wagon loads Of dirt
and waste matter have already been haul
ed from the building. About fifty men are
employed in putting on the finishing
touches.
The plumbing contract is not as near
but the man in charge of this
promises to finish his task by the 18th Of
the month. There still remains consid-
cradle work TO be done before the elevat-
ors are ready to run.
The contract for furnishing the offices to
be used by the department is in the hands
of the firm of W. B. Moses Sons. The
contract was let May s and sixty days Is
allowed for its fulfillment. Some of the
carpets and furniture are already stored
in the new building and will be put in
their places as soon as the mechanics have
finished their work. E. c. Moses. one OF
the firm, stated that the furniture for the
postoffice building is ready TO be moved to
the Offices as soon as it is desired to have
il there.
