TO TAKE NEW QUARTERS.
Offices of Purchasing Agent Cochran to
Be Moved,

Arrangements have been made for the
removal of the force Of the purchasing
agent of the Post Office Department from
his temporary quarters on the eighth floor
of the Post Office building to the fifth floor.
The transfer will probably be made to-
morrow.
William E. Cochran, the purchasing
agent, is a Presidential appointee, and as
such is entitled to offices on the executive
floor of the building On the fifth floor
are the offices of the Postmaster General
and his four assistants. the auditor OF
the Post Office Department and the Assis-
tant Attorney General for that depart
ment. This constitutes the entire executive
force of the department. save the pur-
chasing, agent whose office is, In measure,
executive.
When Mr.. Cochran was appointed by
President Roosevelt as the first purchasing
agent of the department he was at loss
for space in the crowded post office build
ing wherein to begin the organization of
mis- division. Rooms were finally found for
him on the eighth floor of the building,
most of which space is occupied by the
clerical force of the auditor, who is an
official of the Treasury Department, and
the remainder by the files and papers of
that officers division The rooms found
for the purchasing agent were not as COM
Portable or as convenient as he could have
wished, but Mr.. Cochran is not a man to
complain Oh inconvenience. his force was
organized and the work of the new division
begun.
Soon it was found that he was being
crowded for space and with the advent of
his chief clerk. who was recently appointed,
it was made plain that the gathering force
would soon have to have larger quarters
In order that the business of the Office
might be properly conducted. With the
advent of Merritt o. Chance as chief clerk
of the Post Office Department the matter
was taken up in earnest and rooms were
found to be available by sending to the
eighth floor certain clerks who were not
absolutely necessary on the fifth floor and
bringing down the force of the purchasing
agent.
The rooms that will be assigned to Mr..
Cochran and his clerks are one now used
by the office of the Third Assistant Post
master General, and two used by the force
of the second assistant. The rooms are
large and convenient, and two of them are
together, the third being separated by but
three other rooms. Mr.. Cochran will
thereby have a more direct and convenient
means of reaching the Postmaster General
or the chief clerk, with whom he daily
confers on various matters connected with
his division, and his business will be more
easily and conveniently carried on than
has been the case since his appointment
and the organization of his force

CONTROL OF CORPORATIONS.
Mr.. Garfield's Plan and That Suggest
ed BY the MagnateS.


The differences between the plan for the
regulation of the great corporations of the
country that has been advanced by Com
missioner Garfield of the bureau of corpor-
atoms and by trust magnates when this
entire question of government regulation Of
corporations was before the United States
Industrial commission, is being discussed
with interest, as it is matter that will
be fully gone over in Congress either in
the present or the next session.
When the industrial commission was TAX
ing testimony five years ago many of the
captains of industry" favored national
incorporation act, and some OF them Ia
vored publicity of the affairs of the cor
porations to be provided in this act of in
corporation. On that point, however, they
were somewhat at variance. Some favored
publicity to quite full extent and others
questioned the wisdom of such procedure.
But the essential feature of the corpora
tions' proposition to have a national in
corporation act was embodied in the idea
that such an act would simplify their OPP
erations under the law and facilitate bust
ness by making such corporations entirely
free from the control of the states except
as to the taxation of property within the
states and police regulations that the states
might desire.
The proposition of Commissioner Garfield
is quite different from this, in that it
leaves the corporations exactly as they are
in every respect except that all those en-
gagged in interstate commerce will be re-
quired to take out federal license, under
which Congress will undertake to prescribe
such regulations may be considered de-
srable. By this method the corporations
will gain nothing in the simplifying of the
legal machinery to which they are now
subjected by reason of their state char
tiers. The effect will merely be to subject
them to additional supervision on the part
of Congress
This proposition for federal license for
interstate corporations was considered by
the industrial commission and was one of
the suggestions made by that commission
a possible method for controlling such
corporations.

Demands Jurv Trial.

John F. Mickey was arrested last evening
by Policeman Sullivan and taken to the
tenth precinct station upon two charges of
assault and one of carrying concealed
deadly weapon.
There was Christmas celebration at
Mickey's house last night, it is alleged, and
the guests took offense at some remarks
one of their number made which reflected
upon another of the party.
A pistol was drawn, it was stated, and
three shots were fired, which brought the
officer to the scene.
Mickey was taken into custody, as he had
the revolver, and was sent to the station
house. He demanded a jury trial this
morning when presented in the Police Court
and was sent back to Jail to wait until the
case can be called.
