All night long. under the glare of three
powerful searchlights from the Singer
tower, iee-covered firemen poured in
streams from 20 MOBILES. Until the flames
are completely extnguished little effort
can be made to reach the vaults where
securities and papers valued at $500,

A rigid police line is maintained on all
sides of the burned building and the cor
don covers so wide an area that the
thousands of sightseers who floe<ed Ia
the scene are unable to obtain more than
a glimpse of the structure. In addition
to the established lines maintained by
the police. 100 policemen and 40 detectives
are assigned to the task of preventing
the theft of any money or securities still

Whether a new and more magnificent
home will be erected on the same site
for the Equitable Life Is a question into
which enter several elements of doubt.

of property in New York City and for
several years plans have been on file with
the city building department for the
erection there of 62-story building 10

the ,tallest in the world, 200 feet higher
than the Metropolitan tower and $50 feet
loftier than the Woodwork building. nov
IN course of construction.
But under the New York state laws af-
fecting insurance companies such compa-
MES are permitted to own and hold real
own business and it would remain within
the discretion of the state insurance de-
partment whether the society would be
violating the law if it erected a building
the major part of which would be rented
to tenants in no way connected with its
business. A statement by +. +. Ruten-
house, conversational commissioner for
tie Equitable, says that no definite action
will be taken for few days. AS mat
ter Of fact" ne says. there has been
some talk of late to the effect that life
insurance company ought not TO have a
big building. Anyhow, no definite decis-
ion has vet been made" In the present
condition of the real estate market in
the Wall street section it may prove that
the interests of the polieyholders would
be best served by selling the present site
and erecting another building on a less
expensive frontage

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
E eatures of the Days Dealings in All
the Leading Stocks.

New York. Jan. 10.--Losses in the stock
market during yesterdays decline were
largely recovered, today. The tone was
much better Anxiety oceasioned by the
Equitable fire was removed, although the
financial district did not slip back en-
tirely into its accustomed routine. The
decision of the governing board of the
Stock Exchange to relieve traders al
fected by the fire from the necessity of
delivering securities for an indefinite pc
riod put an end to fears of embarfass-
ment on that score, although the fact
that vast quantities of stocks and bonds
We're tied up in the vaults of the ruined
building served to restrict business.
The market became active and strong
in the latter part of the session, which
had been dun after an opening squirt. In
spite of its dullness the list was firm
throughout the day with a constant up
ward tendency. Union Pacific recovered
more than two points of yesterdays loss
proved substantially. Much of the buy
ing came from the short interest. The
dulness of the market recently and its
lack of responsiveness to indications of
an increasingly bearish turn, and yester-
days raids apparently extended the short
interest TO proportions which made it suS-
ceptibie to successful attack.
The monthly statement of the United
states Steel Corporation was surprise
to the street. Preliminary estimates OF
the amount OF the increase in UNI
filled orders ran from $4,000 tons
942OoO tons indicated that the revival IA
the steel business last month was de-
cided one. The weekly reviews of the
trade reported that While some eXtfaVa-
CANT predictions as to the extent of the
revival had not been realized, the volume
of business in some important lines had
been larger.
The markets reception of the steel fig
ures was disappointing To the bulls
United states Steel rose more than a
point on the day but there was no squirt
when the figures We're made known and
the report seemed 10 be less of a factor
than bear covering in elevating prices
Traders took the position that the effect
on United States Steel OF the monthly
statement was largely offset by the bear
iSh influences eNerted by the Stanley in
VestiGation, the governments dissolution
suit and prospects of a heavy reduction
of the steel tariff schedule.
American stocks in London were less
disturbed than yesterday.

Hanks'Boxing Bouts,
City Hall, Tonight.

Tonight will occur the long-looked-
for bout between Kid Flemming of
Old Town, and Scotch" Connolly,
probably Massachusetts greatest
lightweight. Connollys recent work
has attracted attention all over the
country. and he has recently been
matched to meet Leach Cross, the
great New York mitt artist This
means that he is looked upon as about
THE best thing in sight for when a man
e pitted against boy like Cross he
must be o. X.
IL matters not, however, how good
the Scitch lightweight may be Flem-
ming is in no wise concerned. He has
gotten so used to whipping his men
that it is almost a habit and he has
no idea that any boy of his weight in
the country can stand up and eX
change wallops with him. He says he
will go to-, the Seetchman the mo-
ment the bell rings and that by the
time the second bout is half over there
will be but one man in the ring, and
his name will be FIemming. As the
winner of this bout will meet the great
French lightweight of Lawrence,
Young Gallant, the boy who passed it
up to Billy Nixon so badly last week.
of course both will be anxious to make
good.
Another bout that will cause lots of
interest is the one between George
Gilbert and Kid Taylor Of Skewhegan.
These boys met once, and kept the
patrons on their toes for the full six
for the evening this one bout would
be worth twice the admission.
The first event will take place at
$50, allowing time for those who de-
sire to attend the Opera house where
the Red Sex Quartet viii show for the
first time in this city, to reach City
hall in season for the first bout. Kid
Shea has been engaged to referee.

today. As soon as it was seen they
could be entered 50 clerks were dis
patched from the Bankers Trust Co,
few blocks away. TO remove thither
the securities as they were taken out.
Between $50, 900, 0o0 and $70000.0 600 in
stocks and bonds were thus quickly
transferred without untoward Incl
dent. The Bankers Trust Co. owns
the Mercantile Trust Co.
Just what the value is of the securi-
ties yet imprisoned is mere guess
work 1t is known that the Equitable
securities are close TO $300, 900, and
those of the Hartman estate, in the
vaults of the Mercantile Safe Deposit
Co, are understood TO approximate
1928. 0o0, 000 1t is also said that Thomas
+. Ryan has approximately 500, 100000
in securities there; the Gould estate
a nearly similar sum. However, the
Mercantile Safe Deposit Co. refuses to
give out any list of those having box
es and Furthermore it has no knowl-
edge of the amounts its clients stored
away. So a correct estimate of value
is out of the question.
1T was said at George Gould's offices,
today, that Mr.. Gould had felt some anx-
iety about the securities, hut that he re-
ceived assurances that there would be
no damage or loss. The Mercantile Safe
Deposit Co. issued a statement saying
that not only was everything in the
vaults safe, but that in some places the
paint on the vaults had not even been
blistered. The Quilted structure contin-
ued, today, to hold its dead. Search in
the building is extremely hazardous, ana
no further trace had been found. tonight,

Walsh. Nor had the body of William

New York, Jan. f0.-With the sum
nit of Mt Mckinley as its goal an
expedition headed by Professor Her
sehel G. Parker, the explorer, will
leave New Nork within the next few
days, possibly. tomorrow. The eN-
petition viii have as it's station for
supplies trading post on the Suitna
river about $50 miles from the base
of the mountain. Five hundred pounds
of pemmiean, 30 pounds of alcohol for
fuel above the timber line, tea, sugar,
raisans, dried fish, bacon and rice will
be taken fer food. The party will be
clad in wolf skins and soft smoke tan
ned moecasins. with spiked ice
scrapers. So intense is the cold that
mercury freezes and To take the al
titudc Prof. Parker will carry a
hypsometer by which he hopes 10 he
