T. A. BELL
CHAIRMAN
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
OCRATIC CONVENTION.
COMMITTEE OF ARRANGEMENTS
MET AT DENVER AND AP-
POINTED OFFICERS.

Theodore A. Bell of California was
chosen as temporary chairman of the
democratic national convention by the
committee on arrangements. No selec-
ton was made for the permanent chair
manship, this matter going over until
the meeting of the full national com.
mittee is held. The men most promi-
nently mentioned in this connection at
present are Representative Henry D.
Clayton of Alabama and Judson P.
Harmon of Ohio. Governor Joseph w.
Folk of Missouri and Senator joseph
w. Bailey of Texas are also strongly
favored. Other appointments made by
the committee on convention arrange
ments, and which unquestionably will
be made permanent, were as follows:
General secretary, Urey Woodson of
Kentucky.
Assistant general secretary, Edwin
Stone of Washington, D. c.
Sergeant at arms, John I. Martin.
Missouri.
Chief assistant sergeant at arms. ].
S. Fem of Indiana.

Those present at the committee
meeting Saturday were Chairman
Thomas Taggart, Secretary Urey
Woodson, Roger c. Sullivan, Illinois;
R. M. Johnson of Texas, James Dahl
man of Nebraska, Norman E. Mack of
New York, and Governor John E. Os.
borne of Wyoming. Two members,
John T. McGraw of West Virginia and
Clark Howell of Georgia, were absent
the proxy of the former being held by
Mr.. Sullivan of Illinois, while Urey
Woodson represented Mr.. Howell OF
Georgia.
The temporary chairman was select
ed unanimously within a few minutes
after the committee met and without
another name being suggested. R. M
Johnson Of Texas offered the motion
selecting Mr.. Bell as temporary chair
man and it was promptly adopted.
Little talk has so far been heard
concerning the platform, but it is gen
orally believed among the recognized
leaders now here that the fight ovel
the injunction plank" in the repub
lican resolutions committee may fine
parallel when the democratic plat
form builders are fairly at work. 1t is
generally understood that in the event
of the Bryan people securing contro
of the resolutions committee the
declaration of principles will follow
closely the planks of the "Lincolr
platform"
The vice presidential situation, from
the present outlook, offers the creates
encouragement to that class of dele
gates which is looking always for eX
element at political convention.

BUSY PART OF MANHATTAN.

IN One Block OF New York Are 1000
Factory Workers.
There is congestion Of industries and
factories, IS we'll as congestion of pop.
ulation in New York, says the Sun.
The committee on congestion of popu-
lation has been making interesting
study from the records Of the depart
ment Of labor of the state Of the loca-
lion Of factories and the number of
factories and workers to the acre in
the assembly districts Of Manhattan
The Significant fact was brought out
that II per cent Of the factories and
11.7 per cent of the workers are pack
ed into 1.3 per cent of the area Of
Manhattan in the sixth assembly dis
trict, with its 1856 acres, bounded by
East 4th street, Sd avenue, st. Marks
place, I'd avenue, I'd street, LIST avenue,
Houston, Eldridge, Stanton, Chrystie,
Division streets, ,Bowery, Canal street
and Broadway.
This assembly district Immediately
adjoins the Sth and 10th assembly dis
tricts, which are the most densely pop
ulated Of any in Manhattan, with over
$40 people to the acre.
Manhattan has 1880 factories and
S41 1855 workers in these factories, with
an acreage Of 14,0SS The Bronx has
642 factories only and 1913 workers
sprlnkled through it's area of 26,O17
acres, less than one worker to the
acre, as against twenty-four to the
acre in Manhattan.
The department Of labor gives the
following number of factories and en-
ployes in the other boroughs Of Great
er New York: Brooklyn, 1850 facto-
ries, with 1882 employees; Queens,
422 factories, with 20,1SO employees !;
Richmond, 173 factories, with 1854
employees.
1t is when one makes dividing line
between upper and lower Manhattan
at 14th street that the true significance
Of the crowding of factories in lower
Manhattan is evidenced, for in this
area, roughly cut off at 18th street,
$4,000 workers are located in about
2,7OO acres.
AS the acme of density is the block
bounded by West Houston, Prince and
Crosby streets and Broadway, with 81
per cent of it's site covered with build,
ings, density of 1910 workers to the
acre, and with total of 1000 people
working in the block during 1906. the
year for which all the data are taken
A large proportion Of the buildings il
this block are twelve stories high.
Another fact Of significance is tina,
In this book the assessed value O.
land, according to the report of the de
partment of taxes and assessment, wa.
81, ,S48, or $25.0S a square foot.
Does it pay to manufacture wher,
land costs this rate? Who pays tn
additional rent on the land, and coul,
. factories easily remove to other Dor
oughs? These are some Of the ques
lions which the committee suggests a
q result of its studies.
