Stitz an officer in the navy. Mr. Bailey
of Texas arose and objected to the

Bailey brought matters to a complete
standstill by making the point of or

fact had to be recognized and all bust

GLASS THAT FIRE CAN'T BREAK.
Product of British Factory Said to
Be Proof Against Burglars.

LIVERPOOL, March 2.-For years
the Pilkington glass works in Ian
cashire have been conducting expert
ments designed to produce fire-proof
and burglar-proof glass, and today for
the first time these experiments were
crowned with success. To the mol
ten glass a wire netting was added,
and the composition resulting resisted
all inroads of fire or other violent
agencies. Doors of this material
have proved unbreakable. and even
when subjected to $500 degrees Fair
enheit remained unaffected, while or.
binary doors grew red-hot. The new
composition Is expected to be great
commercial success.
