tion Of liz contents. has set on foot an inquiry
which ought long since 10 hnve been made--

Patent. Olico building was what the nrchi-
tects called lrc.proof. and WINS In
this respect undoubtedly superior to
most Of tho Government buildings. Yet It
canglt fire and narrowly escaped complete
destruction, Just as any of the others mny do.
