windows.
At least eight Of them were hurt, sew

badly injured.
The fire started on the sixth floor. the
flames soon bursting from the windows
Five times the hose burst. This added
to the alarm of the girls. who appeared
at the windows. AS high as the eighth
floor many could be seen preparing to
leap to the ground when the fremen ar
rived.
The corner is one of the busiest in the
retail section, and the street was quickly
clogged with the crowd. For a time there
was difficulty In fighting the fire.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, October 29.-During the
greater part Of the forenoon session upon
the stock exchange today the market
showed the dull and sagging tendencies
which characterized yesterdays dealings.
Before midday, however. the trading as
sumed a much flrmer tone. The early de-
clines were In most cases fully recovered
and the general market advanced we'll
above yesterdays final quotations. No
particularly explicit reasons could be as
signed for these various shifts in prices.
In the early part Of the day, when the
market was heavy, 1t was said that there
was under way a general cleaning up OF
speculative commitments over the cleo
ton. If that were the case tt would be
difficult to account for the subsequent
vigorous rally In prices.
There was, In fact, little news of general
Importance overnight, and no more with
the course OF the day, apart, OF course,
from developments of political character
The great ovation rendered to the repub-
lican candidates at the Madison Square
Garden meeting last night served possi-
bly, to stimulate confidence In the Outturn
of the presidential election. although. on
the other hand, the general proceedings Of
the meeting were fully known in the early
dealings when the stock market was
rather distinctly weak.
London Firm In AL Departments.
The London stock market was firm In
all departments. but operations here for
foreign account were upon trifing scale.
The Bank Of Engiand's rate OF discount
was left unchanged at 2h per cent. al
though the bank reported the extraordi-
nary proportion of reserves to liabilities
OF 3d. 80 per cent. as against 51.7O per cent
last week and about 40 per cent In the cor
responding week of last year.
In the local money market little change
appeared except In the rate for call loans.
which hardened somewhat In connection
with the usual financial arrangements IN
cidental to the closing days Of the month.
Transactions in the stock market were
in rather light volume, but reflected a
fair distribution of speculative interest.
Union and Southern Pacific and Reading
retained their usual prominence In the
dealings, and Northern Pacific was also
active and exceptionally strong. The
traction shares remained sluggish.
Most Conspicuous Movement.
The most conspicuous movement In the
miscellaneous and industrial conditions
was represented by sharp recovery In
Consolidated Gas. which was seemingly
based upon advices from Washington
that the hearing of the eighty-cent gas
case before the Supreme Court would be
held Wednesday next.
American Smelling was notably strong
and active, and the United States Steel
shares were firm.
