TO WORK IN
SLUMS OF
new YORK

New York. Nov. l6--In pursuit of their
desire to assist the poor and uplift the
depraved, Robert Hunter and his wife.
the daughter OF the millionaire
Anson Phelps Stokes, have forsaken their
country residence in Noroton. Conn, and
their mansion In Madison avenue. for a
small brick house in Grove street on the
lower west side.
Both have devoted several years 10
work In the slums and were married two
years ago. while Mr.. Hunter, formerly OF
Chicago. was In charge OF the university
settlement.
was made after long study of the con-
ditlons In the lowly parts Of the city. Both
Mr.. Hunter and his wife have intimate
knowledge OF the east side. and for
long time they were inclined TO make
their home there.
But their Investigations led them west
OF Washington square and in and around
Minetta lane they found the greatest de.
mand for the work they had In mind. For
more than two generations this section
hasvoeen looked upon as one OF the blots
on the city.
The place never is without patrolmsn,
one being detailed especially for duty in
the street. little more than 900 yards in
length.
Formerly the lane was the centre OF tho
RED Light district" but since the move
ment uptown the Red Lights have disap-
peared and In their stead have come
filthy houses.
In tho last couple OF years tenement
houses OF tho accepted East Side model,
have begun 10 replace the low, old fash
ioned brick structures and this has made
more pressing demand for judicious set
Element work. The mission workers say
the district Is now in more need OF at
tention from the charitable and tho sym
pathetic rich than any other quarter in
Manhattan.

INVESTIGATORS MEET.
General Slocum Disaster Discussed at
Department.

An informal meeting of the commission
appointed to investigate the General SIocum
disaster in New York was held today at
the Department of Commerce and Labor.
All the members of the commission were
present except Commander Winslow. Thus
far the commission has taken BIC, OOO words
of testimony.
Todays meeting indicated that probably
no more oral testimony would be taken
1t will be necessary, however. before the
commissions reports can be prepared to
await certain exhibits which are to be in
corporated in the findings of the commits
sion. These relate to the reinSpection OF
passenger steamboats, which Is now in
progress in New York.
About 800 vessels are to be reinspected
and the commission feels that it must
await the results Of this examination be-
fore 1t properly can make its report and
its recommendations. 1t is probable that
from time to time meetings of the commits
sion will be held here to consider their re-
port but the meetings will be mostly ex-
ecutiYe.
