NEW G. P. Q. BUILDING
FIRST MOVEMENT OF MACHIN-
cry OCCURRED YESTERDAY.
Work of Removal Will Not Be Com
pleted Until September-More
Room is Needed.

The first movement of machinery in the
new government printing Office building
occurred yesterday. The card machines
were set to work in the new building run
ming off cards for the Post Office Depart
ment. From now on there will be steady
increase of the working force In the ne"
building until all the machinery and en-
ployes that can be accommodated there
have been transferred to that workshop.
The number of people now employed in
the government printing office is something
less than -four thousand. Before Congress
adjourned the number was 81 ghtly more
than four thousand. The number OF 1ur-
loughs and dis1nissals this year on account
of the lessening of work by the closing OF
Congress for the long recess has been
smaller than usual, if not smaller than ever
before The government printing office is
regarded true index to the business ac-
tivity of the country. The activity OF that
big workshop during the long recess OF
Congress shows that the business OF the
country has grown 50 greatly as TO m
crease the need for government pr ming IN
various ways. Never before IN the story
of the United States has the government
printing office turned out so large an
amount of work as during the past year
Removing to New Building.
1t is not likely that the work of removing
the government printing office into the new
building will be completed until some time
in September There are fifteen elevators.
all of which will have to be in running order
before the public printer will care to have
all the force in the building that can be
comfortably accommodated IN the new
quarters These elevators, 1t is thought.
will not be completed before August l. The
work of moving in. however, will go on
steadily Some machinery is now in on the
first floor and still more on the seventh
floor The other machinery will be taken
in gradually, and in such a way as to inter-
fere as little as possible with the routine
work
More Room Needed.
1t will not be possible to get the entire
force of the office in the building. In
order to complete it's work of providing a
model printing Office in this city for the do
ing of the work of the government Congress
original intention of tearing down a very
large portion of the old building North
Capitol and H streets and to erect on that
site an addition to the present newly-com-
pleted structure.
In the old building there will be left prob
ably force of 800 people, mostly bookbind-
ers. The specification department, now
CHARTERED in the Union building, will be
moved to the second floor of the old printing
office building. The specification department
now occupies an entire floor of the Union
building, and it is likely that an entire floor
of the old printing office building will be
needed to serve that purpose.

eighteen years at hard labor in the
penitentiary. The sentence was some
thing OF surprise, altho it was felt
that If Richards was guilty he was
guilty In the same degree as Baird.
Richards previous good character,
however. was expected to count in his
favor. The sentence Of Baird was the
same as that of Richards The appeal
bond is fixed at $4,000. The case will
be appealed to the supreme court
When court convened at $3.50 this
morning the defense in the Richards
case introduced motion for new
trial and argued it two hours. Judge
Applegate overruled the motion and
sentenced Richards to eighteen years
at hard labor. When called upon to
give a reason why he should not re-
eeive sentence, Richards talked In a
low tone and said he was innocent, but
would leave the matter with the court.
Richards spent Yesterday afternoon
