FIRE CONSUMES MILLIONS
Entire Blocks In Heart OF business Dis
trict of Montreal Burned.

MONTREAL, Jan. 2I.-Fire destroyed
millions of dollars worth of property in
this city last night and today. Over two
score Of buildings in the heart of the
business district of the city were guttcd
by the fire. The board of trade which
was erected but eight years ago at a cost
of $SOO,0O0, is a total loss, though the
fremen worked hard to save it.
The district was almost deserted when
the fire broke out, and the flames Sc
cured good headway before an alarm was
sent in. Buildings that were considered
ireproof went up like finder boxes. Half
the city's population thronged the streets
in the vicinity of the fire and remained
all night.
The loss will aggregate between $2,-
100000 and $3,000,000.

STREET CROSSING POLICEMEN
Reasons for Annual and Sick Leave
Given by Major Sylvester.

Reasons for Annual and Sick Leave
Given by Major Sylvester.
Major Sylvester has returned to the
Commissioners of the District his report
upon the Pearre bill, introduced in the
House OF Representatives, granting Ger
tain privileges to special policemen sta
toned at street crossings in the city Of
Washington The bill in brief provides
that the street crossing policemen be al
lowed annual leave OF absence and sick
leave with pay.
Major Sylvester. in his report upon the
proposed measure calls attention to the
fact that the street crossing policemen
are paid by the companies whose car
tracks are watched at the functions
where they are posted. Major Sylvester
says that it would be beneficial TO the
men to have the annual leave and the
sick leave, and that personally he would
be glad to see 1t provided by law
Major Sylvester says, however, that he
does not believe that the companies
should be required to pay the salaries Of
men on leave, and he suggests. if the
bill is reported upon fayorably to the
House Committee of the District. that Z
clause be included naming a special ap-
preparation to pay the men while On leave
lie says the amount would depend UpoE
the number Of days allowed each man D!
way IF leave or for sickness.
