The placing of a fireman in every
public school in the city, which is done
in the case of the theatres and other
large places of amusement, is a matter
now receiving serious consideration by
Mayor Haussling and members of the
Board of Education. 1t will be brought
TO the attention of the Common Council

Danger ut Two schools.
Among those inspected today were
Lafayette Street and the Lawrence
Street schools.
lives of children were constantly in
danger from lack of projections from
fire.
The Lafayette Street School. which
Superintendent Poland in his last two
annual reports advised To be torn
down, was among the worst.
The principal and the teachers of the
school are appTehensive OF danger. and
fire drills are practically maintained at
all times. While it takes but two min
utes to empty the school, when the
fire gong sounds. they are dismissed
inside of four under ordinary condi-
tions.
The tramping of the children in as
eending and decending the rickety
stairs caused them to vibrate, and
there iS imminent danger that there

parts of the old building and a gen

accommodating only two children
abreast, and care has to be maintained
in getting the children down.
At the Lawrence Street School all the
stairways were found TO have at least
four turns, are all of wood construe-
ton, and the ratings 50 low that in
case of rush the children would be
precipitated to the floor below over
them.
Doors Open Inwardly,
Conditions in this building are almost
similar to those in the Collinwood
school, the doors of one of the exits
open inwarGly, but the most dangerous
feature in this school was found in the
boiler room, where there are wooden
ceilings over the boiler, badly warped
and twisted from the heat and liable
to ignite at any time.
This condition was made known to
member of the old Board of Education
a year ago, and at the time the school,
house committee of the educational
body looked into the matter and decided
that the conditions should be renedied,
but nothing was done.
The walnut street Building.
At the Walnut Street School the con-
ditions were found to be inadequate

building was condemned by John Aus

AND
COMMERCE
wall Street.

New York, July 2O.-Considerable
selling to realize profits became the
natural order of things on today's
stoc kmarket after the attractive adj
vances of last week. The feature
about this operation hal attracted
most attention, however, was the
manner in which these offerings were
absorbed and the small u~nfavorable
effect produced on prices. There was
restraint apparent on any further up
ward movement in stocks which had
become most buoyant by the end of
last week but nc show of positive
weakness at any important point in
the market. There were various new
points of positive strength which
served as sustaining forces for the
whole list. The movement was based
almost wholly on the growth of con-
fidence in the general outlook and the
Improvement in speculative sentiment
as applied to the Industrial. financial
and commercial outlook as a whole.
This found expression in some sub
s~tantial increase of demand for stocks
as well as in expanding volume of
buying bonds. Commission houses re-
ported a more general participation
in the buying on the part of the
clients scattered throughout the Il
try and outside the class of habitual
spectators of the very wealthy elias.
Foreign stock markets also sent or
ders to his market. In the bond
market the broadening today persist
ID. Par value of bonds sold at the
stock exchange last week rose to over
$4,000, 600 which represents an in
crease of over S12, 600, 900 over the
sales in this week of last year. The
bond market shows other signs of
improving health especially in the in
creasing number of issues of varying
size coming from first hands and pur-
chased by bankers for resale. The
relief of the congestion in this depart
ment of financial affairs is regarded
as of prime importance in keeping up
the movement towards improvement
in general affairs which has set in. A
substantial increase in the movement
OF wheat made up a factor that could
not be Ignored in this connection.
The rains in the northwest have gone
far to revive sentiment over the spring
crop and to make al influence in both
the wheat and stock markets. An
undertone of serength in railroad
stocks is maintained in the widespread
conviction that measures are in train
to bring about an increased rate of
compensation to the railroads for the
transportation service. Further re-
sumption of activity in iron and steel
industries was a factor in stimulating
the stock market. A rise in the price
of copper in the London market also
helped. A rise in Standard OIL in the
outside market Vas cited by the pro-
f%essional element as evidence of the
nature of the backing for the move
mcnt to advance stocks. Supplies of
money continue abundant. The stock
market gathered renewed strength In
the latter part of the day and closed
at substantial advances throughout.

L. NJ. Patterson, who supported
the Republican ticket in Denver
with all the strength he could
muster, can regard the outcome of
Tuesdays election as singing
rebuke to himself and to the sour
rilous, abusive and indecent per-
sonal fight he made against Mayor
Speer. Patterson was SO eager for
revenge, which he hoped to re-
ceive through the defeat of Speer,
there was no charge too infamous
for him to trump up against Speer
and his administration. He went
so far as to totally ignore truth in
his attacks and colored statements
of graft to such broad extent that
by the close Of the campaign the
readers regarded all he said against
Speer as lies and consequently his
charges of dishonesty in the con.
duct of city affairs were not taken
seriously even though in some in
stances he may have accidently
told the truth.
