Working in direct connection with this department, and as part of it,
are three telegraph operators and nine artists, etchers, photographers
and engravers; in the Washington office three staff correspondents,
and in the Milwaukee office one such correspondent--making for what
Mr. Bennett calls the intellectual end a force of 72 men, who are
usually regarded by the business end as a necessary evil, to be fed
and clothed, but on the whole as hardly worth the counting.
In the business and mechanical departments the men and women and their
work are these:
The business office, for general clerical work, receiving and caring
for advertisements, receiving and disbursing cash, and for the general
bookkeeping, employs 24 men and women.
On the city circulation, stimulating and managing it within the city
and the immediate vicinity, 10 persons.
On the country circulation, for handling all out-of-town subscriptions
and orders of wholesale news agents, 30 persons.
On mailing and delivery, for sending out by mail and express of the
outside circulation, and for distribution to city agents and newsboys,
31 persons.
In the New York office, caring for the paper's business throughout the
East, the Canadas, Great Britain and Europe, two persons.
In the composing room, where the copy is put into type, and in the
linotype room, where a part of the type-setting is done by machinery,
95 persons.
In the stereotype foundry, where the plates are cast (for the type
itself never is put on the press), 11 persons.
