Sunday Blaze Calls Out Department
 Loss About s10OO.
 Shortly after midnight Saturday night an alarm was sounded from box 21 for fire at 7S7 Chapel street,
 smoldering, 1t is thought, since early in the evening a fire broke out in the storeroom of George Pins on the sec- ond floor, rear, of the building owned by the James Gallagher estate of 7s5 to 7S9 Chapel street, near Orange street. The flames wrecked this sec ton of the building and burned up through the ceiling to the floor above threatening 8 spectacular fire, which was put out after q hard hours fight without putting a drop of hydrant wa- ter into the building. The damage on the building amounted to $5OO and to the stock of George Pins to between $20O and $50O
 The fire was discovered by Patrol men McAvoy and Lautenbach, who promptly turned in an alarm from the box at the corner of Orange and Chap el streets. A big crowd was on the spot in minute.
 The fire apparatus arrived In quick time and Chief Fancher ordered the laddies to use nothing but chemical hose unless forced to do so, in view of the fact that on the ground floor of the building was the store of the Waldorf Shoe company, and of George Pins, both of which were filled with stock which would be ruined by water.
 The chemicals did the business sup plemented by work by the firemen with taxes.

STOCK MARKET FEATURES
BIG BULLS HAVE STOCKS WELL
 IN HAND.

And Resumption of Rise in Prices Ex-
 pected This Weel5-GOld to Come
 When Needed---A Few Opinions.
 The bulls showed Saturday that they had the stock market well in hand, and when the bank statement came out up went prices again.
 To-day bulls and bears will take a brief rest.
 Despite adverse money conditions, some shares closed Saturday higher than the week before.
 The bulls expect, in spite of every thing, to get gold imports.
 Big money is being borrowed in Flu rope anyway; hence this does not ap- pear in the New York bank loan ac- count. Still, it is time to exercise eau | ton.
 A few Wall street opinions are as fol- | lows:
 George A. Ellis, jr, of E. F Hutton & Co.,: Phenomenal crops this year and the close working of influential inter- ests are the chief factors in the present security market"
 After enumerating the various strong bullish conditions he adds: Now, as regards the financing of all these bull- ish conditions at critical period for money, it seems reasonable to believe that big men and syndicates are amply prepared with funds, but that there will be temporary climax in the up- ward trend of prices before long seems certain in order to allow the money sit uation to adjust itself. Heavy imports of gold are pending and will be neces- sary We advise caution and the buy ing of stocks only on good breaks" 1 Nicholas w. Anthony, of Waterman, Anthony & Co.,. We believe that stocks are purchase on all reactions, and from about the present level of prices will show handsome profits in the fu- ture. We advise caution during the period when money will harden up, but as soon as money shows an easing off tendency we expect to see a very broad l bull market The phenomenal prosper | ity of the country, which shows no signs of abatement anywhere, must be reflected in higher prices for securities. We particularly recommend Southern Pacific, Union Pacific, Chesapeake and Ohio, Atchison common, and Shelters. "
 George R. Harris, of Henry Sproul & Go. (Pittsburg): "The business situa- tion in Pittsburg. both industrial and mercantile, continues exceptionally good, with the outlook most promising. Mills and factories are running to their full capacity, and are well booked ahead. The financial situation is strong, with the banks well fortified to take care of all legitimate requirements" | A. o. Brown, of A. o. Brown & Co.,: There seems to be no doubt that the bull leaders are in absolute control. Present conditions are that. announce ments will be made by Tuesday which will vastly improve the aspect of finan- tcial conditions, and big upward move ment in prices this week will be the re- \ EuIt v
