fire losaes have been increasing rapidly,
lhs greatest difference coming between
1882 and 1881, when the increase amounted
to Si6OOOOOO, In every year, while
losses seem to he quite variable in other
months, they are very regular in Febrn-
Any and March. The widest ranges have
been observed in January and the early
fall. IncendiaIism is increasing alarm
ingly. For several years past approxi-
mately one-third Of all the fires WRs the
work Of incendiaries, and the percentage
in the different State5 and Territories
varied in 1884 from II percent In California
10 " percent in Kentucky. These varis-
tons do not depend on density OF popula-
tion, but they show close connection be-
tween iRcendiarism and illiteracy, though
Kentucky and California arc by no means
either at the top or bottom Of the social
scale. Atmospheric conditions, as one
would suppose, have some effect on fires

 Trouble Among the MOuIders at Mal-
 lOry, Wheeler & Co.'S.
 Concerning the increase of pay granted by the Peck Bros. & Go. to their employees, Mir. Henry F. Peck said yesterday that the in crease was granted because the firm was as sured that the employees of other firms en- gagged in manufacturing the same kind of goods would demand more pay, ,and then they agreed to the advance in wages. The Knights of Labor have determined to line of goods who do not accept the scale of prices adopted by Peck Bros, and plumbers throughout the country will be ordered not to handle goods of such firms.
 The Knights of Labor committee who came up from New York to see Peck Bros. were John G. Caville, Ralph Robb and Ed ward J. Shields. The workmen were back at work yesterday Some of the men in speaking of the concern yesterday said they had no doubt that the firm had dealt perfectly honorably in the case and that they felt unable to give the increase, but in view of the inten= tion to make prices paid equal in other places, the firm felt they would not be em- barrassed in their business.
 There is trouble among the moulders at Mallory, Wheeler & Co.'s. There are twen- ty-nine moulders in the lock shop. An in- crease of pay has been asked, and 8 mittee appointed by tine rnoulders had written to the chief council at Philadelphia, and until then nothing will be done in the matter,

CutIer,s Arr Exhibition.

The fourth annual exhibition of paintings by the most eminent American artists opened at Mr. Cutters gallery yesterday, and cas- nal glance is sufficient to convince one that it is superior to any of it's predecessors. It seems that Mir. Cutters success in selling val uable works leads the best artists to cheer fully respond to his invitation to contribute to the exhibitions. The collection deserves and merits a careful inspection, and we doubt not it will be sufficient to mention the names of a few of the artists represented. Among the marine pictures will be found ex- amples by De Haas, Rehn, Nicoll, Bricher, Silva and R. Swain Clifford; landscapes by Casilear, Van Elton, Robbins, Smillie, Insley, Shurtleff and two beautiful pictures by the young and gifted w. Bliss Baker. In genre pictures there are delightful examples by Wood, Story, Morgan, Shirlaw, Perry and others. In the collection are several pictures from the easels of our local artists, Wiseman, Thompson and Benham. Old war veterans will be interested in the picture by Gilbert Gaul, "Guerillas after valley raid" At another time special mention will be made of some of the most interesting works
