THE FIRE EPIDEMIC.

The endemic Of apartment house fires In this
city l. similar in it, manifestations 10 the out
break which puzzled the Brooklyn authorities
during the last six months OF 1890 and there j.
reason to believe that il springs from the same
causc. During many months in the downtown
residence region Of that city fires were mystcri-
ously kjndlcd az the foot Of dumb waiter shafts,
and I'm some cases led TO appalling fatalities
Motives of robbery. revenge. collecting insurance
were canvassc1 but no such suggestions could
he made TO tit the cases. AT length some Of The
fires were traced to a young man OF good fam
ily. who was evidently possessed by the mania
Of inccndiarism. The attempts TO burn houses
finally ceased but not until It had been shown
that more than one person had caused the
trouble. Mania Of this kind is contagious. The
excitement caused by one nccndlary fire and the
conjecture concerning the person who started it
NAV have powerful effect on a vain and un-
balanced mind That proved TO be the case in
Brooklyn. The desire for anonymous no,orIey
and the pleasure Of reading in the newspapers
accounts OF the trouble he had caused were sufii~
clcnt 10 lead Il man, who had no wish to steal
and no malice to crafty, TO 20 about klndlins

West End confingrations have been the work
Of one person But, even though he should be
captured. the danger will not have passed. The
mania is one Of well-rccognizcd character. and
nothing is more patent to the observation than
that outbreaks OF this kind go in series. There
are apparently sound minds In every community
which easily become victims Of fads crazy fol-
lowing OF n political notion, an ecstatc devotion
to popular book, are mild manifestations Of the

AS to the other danger spoken OF, the bandit,
something needs to be done to destroy him. Dur
ing the first three months Of 1895 more trains
have been held up and plundered by armed
gangs than used to be done In a whole year less
than decade ago. The statistics show that 1894
was the premium year for train'robberies in the
history Of the country, but II 1895 keeps up the

This one instance alone proves the Justice OF the

nations should cooperate with the United States
to rid the sea Of floating dangers. but which CO.
