Speaker on That Topic to Appear Be-
 fore Board of Trade.

For the meeting of the Board of Trade this evening Secretary Henry w. Ilbblts has heard from the municipal service bureau of New York that they will send a speaker of ability here, one who raised the membership of the Merchants Association of New York from 300 to 1000 He is to speak along the lines of work of the bureau. it is expected. The bureau makes the claim that 1t offers a town. industrial devel- opment service which will result in the location of more factories of the right kind in the city. This industrial ser vice means the adding of more payrolls to the payrolls already distributed here. It means, therefore. a dollars and cents value to every individual
 To get more payrolls and to get them economically requires ali efficient town development association, board of trade or chamber of commerce Such an eff cient town development organization would, as one of it's first duties under their plan of cooperation, to proceed to catalogue the towns S attractions in dustrial and social advantages and bus mess opportunities. This requires municipal survey.
 The municipal service bureau has for many years been engaged in the work of re-creating inactive boards of trade and increasing their membership, their income and their efficiency.
 The bureau usually finds that neither the mebership, the income nor the eff ficiency of a board of trade can be materially increased until the moral support of all of the men (who amount to anything) in a city has been fn- creased. and it undertakes therefore to quicken individual interest in commu- nifty development work and to teach the individual the value of community CO., operation

STABLE AND STOkEHOUSE BURNED
Adioined Plant of H. B. Porter & Son Go. The Fas-FTe Discovered by Watchman Sunday Night-Cigarette or Match in the Straw Probably the Reason.

floor of the building is used as a stable, and the horses were led out as soon as the fire was discovered.
 Several young couples had been seen about the place during the evening, and it is believed that a match or a care lessly thrown cigarette ignited the straw, of which there was a quantity in the stable. The flames had quickly spread upward to the roof, and the building itself was almost wholly de- stroyed.
 On the two upper floors were stored finished products-dcors, sashes, blinds, etc, as well as some lumber. It was impossible to ascertain the definite amount of damage to the building and stock, but MT. Porter stated that 1t would amount to several thousands of dollars The plant is fully covered by insurance Only the quick and efficient work of he firemen prevented much greater loss.
 c. V. Pendleton, Jr, took Deputy Chief Gernhardt to the fire in his mo- torcycle side car in record time, pass ing the chiefs equipage on Washington square.

When the firemen arrived on the scene the whole roof of the structure was abiaze and the interior was burning briskly.
