 The telegrams were in the form of a question asking the operators whether they would be willing to at tend such meeting. President Lewis tonight said he had received a num- her of answers. the most of which were favorable to the move, but he had not yet received enough to deter mine the result He Is confident, however. that the move will result in a resumption of work. tho rehabilita- ton of the interstate movement In this field, and, in consequence. the re- mobilization Of the interstate move ment in the southwest fields and tho outlying districts.

NEW PHOTO SYSTEM
Police Likely to Have one in the
 Autumn.

There is a strong probability that the local police department will make some of the suggested changes in re- gard to the photographing of prison CTS by the department men instead or by an outside photographer IS Is now done and also toward the installation of a system modelled on the Bertlllon IT indeed that is not established some time before the end of the present year. The agitation was raised some time ago for some such action but as no appropriation was on hand the mat ter could not be taken up at the time, If the money can be found however, It Is quite likely that the photographic system at headquarters will be put in operation before many months have passed The present heavy criminal docket of the superior court with it's great number of arrests in this city has resulted in the taking of a great many photographs for the Rogue's Gallery as all who are bound over for trial are photographed and if convicted placed In the collection of pictures. This means great expense and tho photo grapher's bill will be large one so that in the end probably money would he saved as well as much more con venlent system introduced.
 If the new system to be used by the police is started here 1t is suggested that the fourth floor of the present po- lice buildings which is known as tho drill room would furnish an ideal quar- ter for the official photographer. The installation of the Bertillon systen, would also probably follow.
