TO PREVENT FIRE LOSSES.

More than $4,000, OO0-nearly n
million day-went up in smoke in
the United States and Canada dur
ing the first two months of 1907 This
destruction of property Is revealed by
the New York Commercials statis-
!! tics of fire losses for the months of
January and February. In this period
there were 7,445 fires, an average of
12G n day, spread over $50 cities and
towns in every State Of the Union.
Chicago was the heaviest sufferer,
with loss for the two months, of
$2,SJOO0O. New York follows with
$1,975,250. Philadelphia is third with
$1,7G5,OOO. Jenkintown, Pa. had n
fire involving II loss of S1,000,000. Al
together there were four fires that
reached this sum, sixteen that cost
more than 100000. and no less than
seventy with loss of 100000 or
more. In addition, Springfield
(NIass), lost s915,OOO; Pittsburg,
sS50,O00; Niagara Falls. 100000;
Buffalo. s7S0.O0O and Youngstown,
Dresden and Cincinnati. in Ohio.
100000 each. The $50 towns affect
cd report an average loss of $4,000.
Fifty million dollars worth of prop
erty destroyed in the first two months
indicates that the losses of 1907 will
equal, If they do not exceed, the aver
age yearly fire loss of the last ten
years-S200, 900 ,000-even If no great
conflagrat!on swells the monthly to-
tai. The wide distribution Of recent
losses shows that there are hundreds
of centers where n conflagration may
occur ut any time. The National
Board of Fire Underwriters have in
vestigated such centers and have rails
ed rates on buildings within them.
This action has directed attention to
the possibility of reducing the enor-
nous fire losses by the use of incom-
bustiblc materials.
The National Board of Fire Under.
writers has erected laboratory In
Chicago for the purpose Of testing the
efficiency OF various matrials that
enter into building construction, and
municipal authorities are backing
them up by enforcing their use when
ever possible. A notable and recent
instance of this is the action of the
New York Board of Alderman which
has just authorized the Building Com
mittee to take immediae steps to re-
wise the present building code.
Efforts to secure the general adop.
ton Of firproof construction are also
being made by various organizations
throughout the country The Inter.
national Society of Building Commits
sioners ana Inspectors, with head
quarters at Washington, is endeavor
Ing to bring about a fire.proof
building by offering free advice to
any municipality or individual who
cares to ask for it. 1t has retained
the services of leading architects and
building experts to give information
as TO the best methods of fre.resist.
