WILL CONFIRM
SALE NEXT WEEK
Reorganization Of the Dia-
mOnd State Steel Company
Stockholders Expected Soon

Judge Bradford in the United states
Court is expected to confirm the sale
OF the Diamond State Steel plant in
the early part OF next week. The works
were purchased at receivers sale by
NewiSirk and Company. Of Philadelphia,
and as yet, no objections to the con-
firnation OF the sale have been filed.
ana It is not likely that none will be.
The Newhirks represented a number
OF stockholders at the sale, and it is
understood that as soon as the court
confirms the purchase. a reorganizaticp
OF the company will be effected with
the object In view Of starting the big
plant AT an early date. The resume OF
the works will be hailed with delight.
particularly by the people living be-
yond Third street bridge as the fam
lies OF many of the men. who were
employed at the plant live in that Sec
ton. The 'heads of most OF these fam
lilies. however are now working out of
the city bat it is expected that they
viii return when the works are again
started.

ONLY ONE TRANSFER
Property Sales This Week Have Been
Fewer Than for Some Time.

Affairs in the real estate world are
always reflected in the number Of prop
erty transfers recorded at the city
registry bureau and the fact that only
one transfer was made during the en-
tire week is sufficient indication that
the market is extremely dull at the
present time. This is the first time N
several months that so few transfers
have been made in similar length Of
time. However. no anxiety is felt by
the dealers as they look up at 1t as
simply reaction after the hurry and
hustle of the Christmas holidays.
During the few weeks previous 70
Christmas and the week after there
was some very brisk dealing in the
market and there were more transfers
recorded IN one week than there had
been in two or three weeks previous
to that time. This was rather sur
prising TO the real estate men as they
had fully expected to find the market
very dull while every one was sup
posed to be busy making their Christ
mas purchases.
Within a week or two the regular
winter rush will be on ard then busi-
ness Will be brisk enough. The scar
city OF small houses in this city IL
going to cause more sales as every one
who can possibly do so Will purchasa(
his own home. The advent Of the Legal
moving day will be another factor IN
causing things to dock up in the real
estate world and altogether the deal
ers are looking forward to a very sue
cessful season.

BUILDING IS
REALLY FIRE PROOF

CHICAGO, Jan. 12.-Chicago has the
latest thing in unburnable buildings
a model of fireproof construction for
the whole country. This is the new
testing laboratory supported by the big
fire insurance companies. Here every
material and device connected with the
problem OF fire prevention viii be tried
out and rated. The work Of the labor
atories covers everything from bricks
to hose MOBILES.
The laboratory building itself. from
cellar to roof, contains nothing that
will burn, affording monumental evil
dence of the fact that II is not nee
essary that combustile materials
should enter into the structural pants
or equipment OF a modern business
building.
The walls are OF vitrihed brick; cast
iron columns protected by hollow tile
support the steel girders for the floors
and roof. The floors. roof. and parti-
tons are Of seni-pOrous hollow terra
Gotta, with thick walls. All the OPEN
ings are framed in rolled steel. There
is no clustering in any part Of the
building. Thirteen different makes Of
fireproof window frames and sash have
been used, all of them sheet metal. All
the doors are Of filled copper or Steel
Large sections of hollow terra Gotta
form the steps and landings.
The first design for the building call
ed for "slow burning construction" but
it was later decided that the Under
writer's Laboratories, Of all places,
ought TO be a model OF hreproof de-
sign. Then followed the change Of
plans in which hollow tile was sub
stituted for mill construction. In other
words. there was a change from the
kind OF construction that would burn
slowly to the kind that viii not burn
at adj.
A Heavy Tax on Every Family
Americans need this lesson in fire.
proof building. as we'll as the aid which
the laboratories will give in passing
upon the value of fire-fighting devices
and nOn-burnable building materials.
The colossal fire loss in the United
States. at the rate Of $3.50 100000 year,
is equivalent to a tax of 500 on every
American family. The total gold pro-
ductiOn OF the United States would pay
only one third of It. Besides the money
loss. there is the death loss-last year
the fire Moloch claimed a total of 6.672
human lives.
one Of the most appalling elements In
the fire loss is the number of public
fire traps consumed. Figures for an
average period covering three years
| show that in that time there were de-
stroyed by fire 427 theatres, 544 halls,
1921 churches. 1852 schools. Az hospi-
tails and asylums. 312 colleges and
schools. 4S libraries. 4l62 hotels.
Conditions are improving. but only
slowly. and a vast amount Of work re-
mains to be done and undohe before the
fire peril will be materially lessened
Outside of New York City and Brook
Ign, according to statistics collected by
the New York Fire Insurance Ex-
change. there are only 1,430 buildings
Of hreproof construction-less than
1900 out of thousands upon thousands
OF fire-traps.

Thaw was under examination for two
hours and 80 minutes today before the
commission in lunacy appointed to in
qure into his present state of mind,
and when. at 1:15, a 25-minute recess
was taken. it was announced his or
deal was nearly over After a half
hours further questioning, it is believ-
ed the commission will have concluded
its mental test of the defendant, and

so without a receipt for his prisoner,
signed by the commission. The guard
withdrew during Thursdays session,
but today had different orders from

Speculation as to Reason.
There was speculation today as to
the reasons which prompted the sub

ton was TO the effect that Hamilton,
having stated on the witness stand be-
