Atlantic City, October 20.—Dele
gates from cities in various parts of
the country were present when the
American Society of Municipal Im
provement convened this afternoon
for its annual session. Meetings of
the executive and finance committees,
addresses of welcome and the pre
sentation of reports occupied the
opening sessions. Papers on munici
pal topics by experts will be read at
the sessions tomorrow and Thursday,
and the concluding business meeting
will be held on Friday.
The society owes its existence to
the efforts in the summer of 1894, of
M. J. Murphy, at that time street com
missioner of St. Louis. His persistent
efforts resulted in a call for a meet
ing of interested cities on September
19th, 1894, at Buffalo, N. Y., for the
purpose of effecting the organization.
Delegates were present from Camden,
N. J., Cincinnati, O., Fort Wayne,
Ind., ' Grand Rapids, Mich., Indian
apolis, Ind., St. Louis, Mo., Memphis,
Tenn. Millwaukee, Wis., Newark, N.
J., New Bedford, Mass., New Haven,
Conn., Omaha, Neb., Portland, Me.,
and Syracuse, N. Y.
The society was organized on broad
lines and its field of operation em
braces every department of a muni
cipality with particular attention to
paving, w r ater supply, sanitation,
lighting and public improvements
generally. It binds together for a
common purpose the executive heads
of the various departments, together
with the mayors and councilmen who
are responsible for the general policy
to be pursued.
