The afternoon was spent by the mem

informal manner. All the congressional

Hamilton.

The Commissioners today received the

of fire escapes, which was referred to him
for report:
After receiving the accompanying letter
of c. F. Hamilton referred to me. I beg
leave to state that IRE escapes were or
dered to be placed on the Saks and Cor
coran buildings, previous to the Date OF
his letter, and are now being erected. The
building Ghe old Globe Officer, now occupied
temporarily by Stumph Bros is not oc-
cupied above the second floors, and for
but short time. We did not consider 1t
necessary to order a fire escape on 1t.
The law makes ii the duty OF the in
spector of buildings and the chief OF the
fire department to order fire escapes on all
buildings mentioned in the act We have
jointly gone over all such buildings, and
given the orders. And as they are aware
that we cam OF enforce the orders, they
have not all complied. As to the remarks
that buildings are not inspected. this charge
Is not borne out by the facts. AS with the
small force in this Office, We have pushed
Inspections vigorously, but owing to the
large field to be covered and the amount of
work aside from inspections, such as In
