THE COMMISSION FINDS MOST OF THOSE VISITED
IN FAIR CONDITION.

The Tenement House Commission met yesterday
morning at the First Branch of the Charity Or

a tour of the tenement houses of the lower East
Side. The members present were Robert W. De
Forest, Myles Tierney. Hugh Bonner I. n. Phelps
Stokes, Raymond f. Almirall and the secretary of
the Commission, Lawrence WELLER Mr.. WELLER
said that this trip merely visit give the
members of the Commission an opportunity of
visiting the tenement houses and comparing the
several types.
They first visited No. It Roosevelt-st. The rental
here is 81 80 for three rooms, and though the
shaft Is not very wide the fairly well
lighted. In the cellar there number of
wooden partitions extending from floor to cell
ing, which used coal bins. Mr.. Bonner sug-
gested that these partitions should be made of
iron. Mr.. WELLER replied that there had once been
a law this effect
The tenement house at No. 81 Roosevelt
st was horrible, said Mr.. WELLER. the people living
In absolute darkness and filth At No. SO Roosevelt
st. there is building which finished only last
year. Here the shaft is about twenty-eight inches
wide and twenty-eight feet long. and the light and
ventilation was better than in the majority of
such houses The twenty-eight inch shaft was
found to be the prevailing type in this district.
Fishers Court. Nos. 20 and % Oak-st. was found
10 be in good condition structurally. but had de-
Perforated considerably from lack of proper care.
Here were found several frame stables, which are
contrary to law.
The marble yard Nos. Sc and 3s Cherry-st was
next visited. Gotham Court. which pulled
down several years ago, formerly stood on this
spot At Nos 20 and p Cherry-st. rooms can be had
as low as So month, and though occupied by the
very poor; were found to be in good condition At
No: % Cherry-st. there is a five story building
which has gone 10 rack and ruin. 1t is used a
cear is eTPbe anS he smell b from the

The Commission then visited No. "a Forsyth-st
the scene of the recent fire. where several people
were burned to death. AS is usually the case the
fire started in the cellar and quickly spread to all
the floors through the air shaft destroying the
stairway and thus cutting off all means of escape
except by the fire escapes AS the people cannot
be made to keep the fire escapes clear
suggested that it might be well to do away with
the air shaft altogether and adopt some other
means of giving ventilation and light the build

The party then dispersed to meet again next Fri
