New Structure on Union Square Will Give Fire No Chance-Steel and
 Terra Gotta

NEW YORK, January 2s.--An ob- jeet lesson in 6reproof construction, par. ticplarly interesting to the architects and builders and to the real estate and insurance men of New York, is now being conducted on the north side of Union Square. On the site of the old Everett House seventeen. story mer- cantile building is rising. In it the ar. ehiteets and contractors are trying to realize the ideal expressed in the much. abused term, absolutely fire-proof v
 The frame is the familiar steel skel. eton; it is the thorough protection of the metal that will make the building indestructible. The outside columns are covered with cement mortar and the in terior columns by at least three inches of hollow terra eotta blocks laid in mortar. The floor arches are of terra cotta and are so constructed as to en. close the beams completely. Through. out the partitions are of the same kind of unburuable blocks as the floors.
 The windows will have frames of hol- low metal, with panes of wire plate glass. The "risers'' and .'stringers 7 of the stairways will be of extra heavy east iron and the treads of sheet iron. Elevator shafts are enclosed by walls of six inch hollow tile blocks. com plete sprinkler equipment will be supple. mented by an automatic fire alarm ser. vice; and watchman's clock system on every floor will make sure that no blaze, even if one starts, will gain much headway with the contents of the building before being detected.
