EHHtC Wnr.

Everything seems to be rushing
along smoothly with regard to the big
freight rate war which has been wag
ing for the past week. Information
comes from Atlanta now that Com
missioner Stahlman, of the Tariff
Association, has decided to take q
hand in the war, and will today or to
morrow announce q uniform cut for
aIl railroads to 40 cents per hundred
on all tirst-class freight from New
York and other points in the North.
The commissioner will do this to pro-
tect the roads. He will simply make
the rate 80 low that none of them
can stand it, and they will have to
come back to living figures, thus
probably putting an end to the war.
At least that is what the contemplated
action Of the commissioner is intend
ed to do.-The State.

A writer in the New York Recor
der, commenting on the destruction
by fire of the Rev. Dr.. Talmage's tab,
ernacle in Brooklyn, says:
What is fireproof?
Iron isn't, because it melts in fierce
heat, and in less heat expands. Thus
an iron beam between two walls may
expand so much as to throw one OF
them down. Stone isn't, because in
fierce heat it crumbles away to dust.
The material which is most nearly
fireproof is good brick. The more it's
baked, tho harder it gets. So the
best tire-proof buildings have brick
terra Gotta walls, floors of hollow brick
and doors and castings only of wood.
Even then fireproof building will
burn if very hot fire attacks it from
Che outside. But u fire starting in
one Of the rooms only burns shat
room and stops. 1t never gets very
hot.
In such fire as that in Chicago
and Boston, the best of buildings
would be damaged greatly, even if
they did not fall.
Wood, when it is thin, burns very
rapidly, but in big beams it doesn't
catch fire so readily.
So, in ordinary wooden buildings it
is the hollow spaces between the laths
and the walls aud floors that carry the
fire out Of sight like 80 many chin
neys until it is ready to burst
through. These hollow floors are
one of tho greatest dangers in fire.
The stairway, with its wooden stairs,
and the elevator shaft, if there is one,
are tho points of greatest danger
because they draw the ire up like
chimneys.
That is why, in case of fire pretty
well started, it is always better to sc
out by the fire escape instead of th'
stairs.
