Looters Attempt TO Get in Their Work,
But Bullets From Police Pis-

New York, Jan. "A dozen persons
were injured. 40 families were made
homeless, 1000 persons were driven
temporarily from their homes, so horses
were roasted TO death and property val
ued at 100000 was destroyed today In
the worst early morning fire New York
has seen In many months. one big
tenement house at 427 West Fifty-thire
street and q large boarding stable at
42s-431 West Fifty-third street were de-
stroyed. Seven tenement houses at
426-434 West Fifty-third street and 436
and 43S West Fifty-fourth street were
badly damaged
Lack of adequate water pressure is
said to have been largely responsible
for the extent of the fire Had not one
OF the big fire boats which drew it's
water supply from the Hudson river
come to the rescue the loss must have
been much greater.
One of the worst features of the fire
was the tremendous crowd which gath

district and the attendant disorder and

Stuyvesant Fish Says Are Many
Indications That it is
imminent.
CAUSES FOR DEAR MONEY.
Hughes Election Shows Temper of
New York People, and II is
Stronger Elsewhere.

New York, Jan. 2.--Stuyvesant Fish
in a statement written for the Journal
of Commerce declares Il great indus
trial crisis is due, and there are many
indications of it's being imminent.
Despite the unprecedented output Of
gold" Mr.. Fish writes, money is dear
the world over, and dear because OF
high prices and activity in trade"
Other causes for dear money are
found in the fact that Great Britain has
not fully made up it's losses in the Boer
war; that Japan and Russia, particular
ly the latter. have scarcely begun to
recover from the effects OF their war
and that within the past year there
have been tremendous losses of capital
due TO the calamities in San Francisco
and Valparaiso
Turning to our own country Mr. Fish
writes that New York. especially that
part of It known as Wall street" has
absorbed and is absorbing more than
its share of the loanable fund.
OF the stock exchange, Mr.. Fish says:
THE New York Stock exchange has
ceased to be free market whore buy
ers and sellers fix prices through the
ebb and flow of demand and supply,
managers OF cliques and pools to such
an extent that for months past every
announcement of increased dividends,
of stock distributions and of rights has
been met by fall in prices.
The investing public are, and remain
out of the market, not because of ven
lures IN industrials, In electric rail-
ways or in suburban real estate--the
speculation In each of which was
checked months ago-nor yet because
of the more recently pTicked bubble
In mining shares, bur simply because
of the distrust which even those pos
sessed of AMPLE means have of the
methods of corporate france now In
vogue in New York. That Europe
shares this distrust of those methods
is shown by it's cutlery against the mis-
use of American finance bills"
Writing of the political possibilities,
Mr.. Fish says that so far as the po-
litical parties are concerned no crisis
can arise before the presidential con-
test of 1908. He says further:
II take 1t. however, that your in
quiry as to political Crisis relates to
other matters and in that. sense po-
litical crisis is due and l think coming
on.
Indeed, 1t seems to me that we al
ready are embarked on q long-needed
moral financial reformation. which
like the religious reformation of the
middle ages. will through much cruelty
work out good In the end. To the need
OF such a reformation the public are
fully awake"
The election of Mr.. Hughes Mr. Fish
says, shows the teynper of the people
