Factory Lighting.

a
A special report on illumination In
factories states that az regards artE
ncial illumination there seems to be
little to chose between lighting by
electric glow lamps and by modern
systems Of inoandescent gas. Eleo
the light has the advantage OF being
constant and requiring little attention
beyond the systematic busting and
renewal Of lamps. The gas systems
generally produce q whittier and moro
powerful light that electric current
but the units are apt to vary much
In efficiency, owing to the liability Of
the mantle to deteriorate. Careful n.
tention, therefore, is required to re-
place any that show signs OF weak.
ness. Electric light, Of course, causes
no vttiation Of the atmosphere; but
In the modern systems Of gas lighting
the amount Of gas burnt is 30 small
and the combustion 80 complete that
the effect on the air is minimized.
For the perfect local lighting OF any
point Of work the three following oon-
,ditions must be fulfilled: ~ Tho A.
Illumination must be adequate, az
glare" effects must be absent, and
CD no troublesome shadows must be
cast on the work.

new UNITED
STATES TREASURER

Since tha recent resignation If
Lee McClung from the office of
United States treasurer much
curiosity has been shown as to the
causes that led to the relinquish-
ment of so desirable post. The
resignation was accepted. Carmi
Thomson, secretary to the presi-
dent, has been appointed United
States treasurer.
While no reason is given for
Meetings. resignation, it is
thought to have grow out of the
fact that the treasurer had heen
far from energetic in securing
President Taft's denomination.
The secretary of the treasury it is
said, has not been at harmony with
the treasurer since the incident of
A. Platt Andrews reference to Nc
Clung's antagonism toward Mr..
MacEeagh.
Lee McClung was appointed as
treasurer of the United States
November 1, 1909. He had been
in close association with the presi.
dent previously through his office as
treasurer Of Yale university. MIR.
McClung is a director Of the
Phoenix Mutual Life Insurance
Company; trustee of the Boy Scouts
of America and treasurer of the
American Association for Highway
Improvement.
The American Banker calls
attention to the fact that the re-
sign tion of Mr.. McClung means
that the money and securities for
which the treasurer is responsible
must be actually counted and re-
ceipted for. This will be the
greatest single financial transaction
in the history of the world. When
MIR. McClung assumed the duties of
treasurer he gave a receipt to his
predecessor for Sl.260, 1874 ,946.
1872 8. This was the largest single
transaction from NAH to man nm
record. While the amount of the
treasurer's fund is not known, it is
expected that it will exceed those
figures by many millions.
1t will require probably three
months to count the money and
securities. This creates remark
able situation. because. presuming
that Mr.. Meetings. successor will
retire on the 4th of March with the
incoming of Woodrow Wilson the
count must be made all over again
for the new treasurer. IS. +. Jour
