 In view of the foregoing it is evi- dent that this committee of One Hundred and Twenty five will at least be in existence until the mid dle of October: but we trust its work may be so successful as to warrant it's continuance. The committee will necessarily have to make Il careful vestigation Of the methods of siIni- lar work which is being carried on in other cities. that they may have the advantage of practical expert once elsewhere. This will involve much correspondence and a system attic tabulation of the information ob tained with careful records of the various sub committee meetings: We therefore recommend that a regular office of the committee be maintained at the board of trade and that d fund be raised to meet the necessary expenses involved including the salary
  stenography. stationery. postage and if not in conflict with the law, we believe an appropriation should be made by the city council for this purpose,
 IT this committee is to be successful it is evident it has a large amount of work ahead of it. and we trust that every member of the general com mittee will be prepared to serve on one of the special committees and de vote considerable time to the work of the same.
