Thinks Larger School APP
preparation Not Needed.

Believing that the public schools Of
this city can be unusually well protect
sd against fire at an expenditure OF not
more than 500 900, Engineer Comnis-
sioner Morrow does not approve Of the
appropriation OF 100000 requested for
that purpose by the Board OF Education.
Commissioner Morrow says that the
schools are safe now, with the excep-
ton Of several rented buildings The
children, ne says. are Ia less danger
from fire while IN the school buildings
than they are In their own homes. He
approves of the freprOOfng of buildings.
and such action was recommended by
HIM as member Of the school com
mission which recently forwarded a re-
port 10 Congress.
Major Morrow points out that all the
school buildings can be emptied in a
minute an6 half, and lac therefore
considers unnecessary all the fire eXtin-
guisheTs and IRE apparatus recommend
ed By Chief Belt
Commissioners mcfarland and West
have approved the estimates of the
Board OF Education for fire protection.

Market Breaks.

The regular market started on the
down grade almost from the opening.
Most OF the breaks were within a range
OF a TO . points. There was little rail-
lying power. The $50,O00,OO0 Union Pacl-
fc bond issue had a bad effect on the
market, as did the excitement on the
curb but the market has had a good
advance and the reaction was nothing
more than natural IN view OF tho ad-
vance.
UnquesttonabIy the interests that were
responsible for the advances Of the
week are powerful enough get under
the market and advance il again. but
with conditions uninvlting, II would
seem that a twenty-pOint rise should be
followed by a sharp reaction.
The table Of gains and declines at the
top Of this column shows the course Of
the market for the day, and the extent
OF the reaction.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1908-03-28

NEW YORK, March 2S-The short
session was attended with considerable
proft-taking liquidation and selling by
the uptown bears. When the market
' is weak the gossips can find all manner
OF I'll Tumors and reports and when il
becomes strong there is no trouble 70
find a cause.
AS a matter OF fact the market has
ignored business conditions and rail-
road earnings in the satisfaction over
the tame Presidential message Of last
week II is admitted that railroad earn
ings are bad, that general business con
ditions while showing some improve
ment are not satisfactory.
One Of the chief causes Of unsettled
conditions this morning was found in
the intense interest attached 10 the
curb trades IN Yukon Gold. the opera
lions plainly showing the work of Law
son IS an advertising agent.
