FIRE AND THE WINDOW ROUTE.
How San Francisco might Have Avoided
Most OF Her IONa,

How San Francisco Might Have Avoided
Most OF Her Loss.
S~eventy-three per cent. Of all the damage
done by fire to buildings other than thai In
which II originates IL attributable to the
window route, writes Commissioner Ftz-
patrick in Insurance. Engineering. More
than that, IS per cent. OF the entire FIRE
loes OF the country In normal years Ia
traceable to lack Of window protection.
In extraordinary CONGREGATIONS the per-
centage increases at frightful ratio. Il is
fairly established, for instance. that at
San Francisco fire actually originated at
eleven different points in comparatively
Insignificant buildings.
Had the windows in adjacent buildings
been protected those eleven ares would
have been confined to those eleven build
ings; and the value Of those eleven buildings
was certainly not more than 500 900.
Tho folly OF unprotected windows has
therefore cost San Francisco more than
II, 900 buildings instead Of the original
eleven and something like eI, 800 900, 900 Of
property and business lossl Had the
windows OF the big so-called ~freproof
buildings been protected, at q cost Of
posslDIy &c, 1000, the contents OF those
buildings would be intact to-day, and just
that one item 70 nearly 90 900, 900 lost.
Many projections have been devised
and tested; many Of them work well, but
in most OF them, particularly whore any
thing automatic Ia depended upon, there
is liable to be a slipup at the wrong moment.
OF course almost anything is better than
nothing. Iron or other metallic shutters
are, at least, fire retardants, though they
ultimately bulge and warp and twist and
frequently yield to the persistehcy Of fire..
The one thing that a preeminentty
above everything else, considerod from
every point Of view appearances, certainty Of
protection, availability and everything else,
Is wireglass. Where W the glass melts
It il still held In place by the wire and bars
the passage OF flame.
know Of but one case where II failed.
The victim made q great hullabaloo about
it and l wa rather surprised to hear his
story. Upon investigation l did find the
wireglass neatly rolled up lying on the
window sill. The intelligent fellow had
used wireglass but had fastened It in wood
sashl
To sum up, put me down as q stanch
believer In wireglaas in metallic or asbestos
sash for ordinary window protection, and
where the danger is great double glazed
sash and wireglass.

HTGH PRICED VIOLINS.
Add 4S Per Cent. 10 Their Cost and Ameri-
rams Co without.

The prices in Europe for old violins are
very high and are the same in every city
and the dealers don't seem to care If they
sell them or not; 81. 900 to $4,000 is q regular
price for a Stradivarius, and third class
Italian violins cost more than 81 900.
August GemGnder says in the Violin
World that no dealer in this country can
pay such fancy prices ana pay Uncle Sam
As per cent. duty besides. He urges that the
duty be greatly reduced, IL not taken of
entirely, on old ~violins. 80 the dealer can
purchase some Of the Instruments abroad.
As it now il. almost all Americans who
study abroad buy their violins abroad also
and bring them into the United States
without paying one cent OF duty. This il
o fair for the dealers here, say Mr..
for Old vioiins ABROAD. one would think thar
Europe II collecting the duty that the United
States places on stringed Instruments.
