The residence 6f O, O. Finney
caught fire from a defective flue Fri
day OF last week, while Mr.. Finney
was IN town, and no one was at home
but Mrs. Finney She however was
equal to the occasion and climbed to
the roof Of the house aud with her
hands tore the burning shingles from
the roof, poured water on and extin-
guished the flames. Aside from sew
erely burning her fingers she is none
the worse for her experience, II was
undoubtedly owing to her presence Of
mind, pluck and energy that the
house and contents were saved

VORKMRN NOT IN DANGER
Contractor Thorp Says No More
Planks Needed at Postoffioe.
Buildings In New York Four Stories
Higher Have Less Scaff0lding-NO
Complaints From Employees.

Whatever cause there may be for com
plant regarding the scaffo!ding on the new
city postofrice building, or however earnest
the efforts of the Federation OF Labor to
have the supports increased, 1t is not at al
probable that any action VIII he taken in the
matter on the part of the contractors.
Mr.. Thorp or the firm of Thorp & Bond.
who have the contract for the construction
of the architectural iron work, Ia in the
city today. When asked what there was
to the case from the contractors point
OF view, he stated that there was nothing
to be said or done. No complaint had
ever been made to him by any of his work
men about the scaffold, either one way
or the other, and he had had no knowledge
that any question or trouble had ever
arisen regarding it.
He considered the runways entirely am
pie and all that were required In the work.
There are, he said, parts OF The structure
where it would be impossible TO erect any
kind of Il soaffold. and that his men, who
were experienced in the work, could labor
to better advantage without it. There
were many buildings in New York city four
to six stories higher than this building,
where there were not one-quarter as many
planks laid in the scaffolding as are used
here.
Mr.. Thorp explained that his employees
were, for the most part. skilled workmen,
many OF whom have been in the employ or
the firm previously, and il any complaint
had been made IL must have been by
discharged workman.
Mr.. TEorp stated that in less than three
weeks the work the men are now engaged
upon will have been completed and the
construction OF the roof begun.
About three months ago an IRON worker
was killed by falling from broken board
used as a runway, but this, 1t is stated,
was entirely due TO his own care!essness
and in 10 way tie fault of the contractors.
No other accidents have occurred to tue
iron workers.
The letter from the Federation OF Labor
calling Secretary Carlisle's attention to
the alleged insecure scaffolding. Is still
hung up in the supervising architects Of
flee in the Treasury, pending an investiga-
tion OF the matter.

A PROFESSIONAL MARKET.
Manipulation by Big Trader Moves
In Prices

New York. Jan. 2o.-The fact that Lon
don prices came lower this morning was
disappointing to local operators, and rather
dampened the ardor OF the bulls in the early
transactions. The result was that the mar
ket hesitated for a time. but toward IL
O'Clock a number of buying orders made
their appearance, and the prominent issues
sold at the highest point of the week
Sugar rose 7-S to 105 "a; Tobacco. 1 1-S
to II 3-S; B. & o., l to 43; Western
Union, 5-S to 81 Is: B. & O., 1-2 to 10
Is; Reading. 1-2 to IL; Jersey Central.
1 to 101 1-2, and Della & Hudson,
IL to 126 81; St Paul touched 20, the
highest for some time past.
The advance in the market was ascribed
to manipulation by big trader. who has
been identified with market movements in
the Industrials in the past Outside
orders We're few and far between, and COM
mission houses generally were complaining
of the lack OF business, except from pre-.
feSsional sources.
