that it would bankrupt the Monon by carrying pas
sengers for a merely nominal sum from Chicago %

COMMENTS IN THIS CITY.
DEALERS SAY THAT THE SHOE TRADE HERE
WILL NOT BE MUCH AFFECTED

WILL NOT BE MUCH AFFECTED
BY THE FIRE.
The nows Of the big fire In Lynn did not seriously
alarm the boot and shoe trade In New-York althouBh
the merket here in certain lines Of goods IS almost
entirely derendent upon the product OF Lynn for us
supply Representatives. Of several OF the chic whoie
sale houses were seen last night by Tribune reporter
and their unanimous comment on the conhagrauon
was that It was fortunate that the fire had occurred
at time which they referred to as between sea-
sonso On this account they agreed that tne IN
fucrice on the market would not be as great as IL
would have been at another time OF the year
The jobbing trade felt little more serious over
the news but even they expected nothing sufficient
to endanger any OF the New York houses. William
Nicely, Of W. Nicely Co., No. 1O5 Duane-st, leal-
ing obber, when at his homo in LeXlng ton-aVe.
explained the situation thus There Is OF course
possibility that this fire will make the market some
what short but not TO alarm ne degr,r. In tact
1t will only affect certain lines. me
Lynn factories supplied only common goods
and especially womens and chIldren's shoes. The
jobbers In mems boots and shoes and In fine qualities
of the other goods Will not be affected by tie fire
Even the jObbcrs in common stock viii not have their
interests damaged much, as this IS not time when
business Is brisk. II the fro had occurred three
months ago. there would have been panic NOW
everybody IS trying TO get rid OF old stock and no ono
Is buying much Tho fact is that the fire could not
have happened at a time In the year when 1t would
do less harm than at present.
