SCHOOL BOARD
ONLY V|OlATOR
BUSINESS PROPERTY OWNERS
ARE WILLING TO COMPLY At
ONCE WITH PROVISIONS OF
FIRE ORDINANCE.

Captain Lindsey of the first de-
partment and c d. Brant, assistant
fire marshal, representing the in
surance companies, are engaged in
an inspection of downtown prop
erty with view of enforcing the
provisions of the fire escape and
fire protection ordinance passed
last April. Hotels, schools, factor
les, lodging houses and department
stores with two floors or over are
required to install stairway fire es-
capes as called for under the or
dinance. Lindsey and Brant have
visited every business block be-
tween Main and Riverside avenues
and Monroe and Division streets.
and are now finishing UP the block
between Riverside and Sprague
from Monroe to Division.
The ordinance provides for spe-
cial protection for boilers in public
buildings and also specifies certain
kinds of doors to be used where
partition walls have been cut. The
requirements as to boilers and
doors are taking more time for in
spection than the fire escapes.
Captain Lindsey hopes to get into
the hotel district within few days.
One of the first buildings visited
after the schools were inspected
was the madison hotel block on
First avenue, in the top floor of
which Is conducted the Blair bust
ness college The building was
found partially protected with fire
escapes, but the owner, Frank Ho-
gan, agreed to install others as
suggested by the inspectors.
Under the old ordinance ladder
fire escapes were required on all
buildings three stories or more in
height. Where such buildings come
under the provisions of the new
the ladder fire escapes
are required to be changed to stair
way escapes. Office buildings are
not included in the new ordinance,
but are required to have ladder es-
capes as provided under the old or
dinance. No test has yet been
made of the new ordinance, as no
one, with the possible exception
of the school board, has hesitated
in complying with its provisions.
