FIRE-RESISTING MATERIAL.
A Plaster That Does Not Transmit Heat
to Wood Which 1t Covers.

AA0O - NV ALAABA1AO RA u .
to Wood Which 1t Covers.
The most vital step in constructing
thoroughly freproof buildings nova
days Is the substitution of stone, brick.
terra Gotta, metal and other incombus-
tible material for wood, and the COM
plete elimination of the latter from the
ediice. But it is not practicable to
carry out this latter part of the pro-
gramme without much expense, and
therefore ~endeavors have been made
to render the wood freproof. One way
of attaining that object is to treat it
chemically n fill the pores with SUBJ
stances that will discourage combus-
ton. This is the plan followed on
warships today. Another idea which
has been received with favor is to
cover the wood after it is in place with
plaster composed of lime and vege-
table fiber, to give the compound a
body, and certain chemicals to resist
the fire. A test of an invention of this
latter class was made in London a
few days ago. The author of the sys-
tenn, named Rous, and a number of ex-
perts were present. The Pail Mall Ga
zette tells the story. Bits OF wood
were coated to a depth of three-quar-
tiers of an inch with the stuff and then
subjected to the fame of a blowpipe.
Similar specimens were thrust into a
boiler furnace. The blowpipe, used
continuously for twenty minutes, did
not sensibly raise the temperature I'M
der the compound. The piece of plas-
tered wood that was put into the fur
mace stayed there half an hour. When
it was removed the coating was chip
ped off with a tool, and the wood
showed a temperature of only 70 de-
grees Fahrenheit. The only costly in
gredient of Mr.. Rous' mixture is tung-
state of soda.

The Case of Dr. Oliver T. Osborne-Tht
 Physicians Statement.
 Dr. Oliver T. osborne, against whom the charge of unlawfully disinterring l the body of Bessie Van Lue, a thirteen year-old colored girl, has been made 1 did not appear in the city court yester- ] day morning. but was represented | there by his counsel, Attorney J. P Goodhart. The case was continued un- til Monday upon motion of City Attor- ney Brown.
 Dr. Osborne made the following state ment on the case yesterday afternoon: | Mrs. Van Lue was perfectly willing to have the autopsy performed at her own house and it was at first contem- plated to have it done there, but she changed her mind and agreed to the | plan of having public burial and, lat CT, allowing private interment. It was her own suggestion that the plan we adopted was finally decided upon.
 T conferred with both undertakers !! Beecher & Bennett and MT. Burwell and was given to understand that, do- ing the affair as we did, there would be no violation of the law. Mrs. Van Lue kept declaring that it was her sole ob- ject to keep the affair from the knowl- edge of the children.
 "On our part there was no form of secrecy about the matter. No one was told to keep quiet, and they went to the cemetery and took the body up as we agreed with Mrs. Van Lue.
 "The idea that any haste was to be employed in the matter is untrue The | I.1 formed till late this afternoon. Does that look as if we were going to rush through the matter? The autopsy was to be by one. of the leading surgeons of the city, and Dr. Peck and myself. who have been the leading physicians em- ployed on the scientifically interesting case, were to assist him. As for my own part in the matter I don't know from my own personal knowledge that the body was taken up last night. haven't seen the body nor the casket.
 ITO show that Mrs. Van Lue knew of the entire arrangements for the burial it is only necessary to state that she knew exactly where to send her chill dren when she changed her mind last night. She sent them right to Burwell's s undertaking establishment where, &C., cording to agreement, the body was to be removed. Mrs. Van Lue's plan was to have the body removed to Provi- dence later. This was understood be- tween us and the undertakers.
 AS to the case of William Van Lue, the girls father, I will say that cared for him for years when he was first taken i'll in Hamden. In his later at tack with epileptic fits I also attended him without receiving a cent of recom- pense. This very girl who was sick was cared for by two or three of us doctors who brought her not only med icine and carefully handled her case, but furnishing her food as we'll
