Arrangements for the Celebration of
September , Mt the Pnn-American.
The commissioners Pleased With
the Prospects for the Occasion.
The Commissioners recently receive
communication from T. ". Hermaus Of
the WinslOw Elevator and Machine Com
paHy, Of Chicago, relative TO the con-
structiou Of the elevators IN the new vii
lard Hotel building. IT appears that these
elevators are not in accord with the
building regulations, but the differences
are so slight that Mr.. Hermaus asks
that the work be allowed TO stand by the
sanction Of the Commissioner
Mr.. Hermaus submits "a long statement
TO the effect that the points insisted upon
by the Building Department are peculiar
and different from those demanded in
other cities. Tie also says that the Inspec-
tor for the District expressed himself as
satisfied personally with the construction
from a mechanical standpoint but that
the rules governing him as an inspector
did not give him any discretion.
In reply 90 the communication or Mr.
Hermaus A. VI. Lawson, the inspector
states that he on May "A last sent to
the George A Fuller Company formal
notice of the points in which the work
referred TO was defective and that no at
tcntion was paid 10 the matter until June
-, when Bernard Green. the Supervising
Engineer Of the Building, called NJ the
Office of the Inspector of Buildings, and
the details of the work We're gone over on
the ground between the Inspector MI
Green, and Mr. Hermans The Inspector
states that The latter on that date APP
pcaled TO him 20 allow the work 20 send
as the time for the completion OF the con
tract was so short that ne would not be
able 10 make the necessary changes and
complete the work within the limit
Mr.. Lawson states that Le did not say
10 Mr. Hermans that the work WAS Of
good construction, but that ne positively
insisted on having the work done that
would insure the greatest possible safety
when il is remembered" continues Mr.
Lawson. that these elevators are to run
al q speed Of 49, feet per minute, and that
a large number Of people viii patr0uize
this hotel. and consequently travel in
these elevators. il is important that every
procaution should be taken to secure
these persons against all possible danger
of accident"
John y. Brady, the Inspector Of Build
ings. in forwarding this report TO the
Commissioners approves the same and
recommends that wherein the COnstTuC-
ton is not in compliance with the regula-
lions notice should be served upon the
responsible parties that IL must boz altered
so as to comply In every detail with the
regulations before certificate can De- is
sued by hts Office. The Engineer Commits
siUu,r has approved the recommendation
and has forwarded the papers ia the case
70 his associates.
