PROBING ORIGIN OF
 $5OO,OOO PIER FIRE
Longshoreman Under AIrest--BeIieved Someone Wished to Stop Shipment
 of Munitions to Russia.

Seattle, Wash, Oct. 29.-Police and fire department officials conducted a. thorough Investigation today into the origin Of the $50O,000 fire which last night destroyed a pier used by the Blue Funnel line of British steamers for shipments of provisions and SUD- plies for England, Russia and Japan More than million dollars worth of freight, mostly imports from China and Japan, was in the warehouse.
 The fact that the fire. started in piles of ra ttan stored with other highly inflammable merchandise in the same manner as two small blazes last Tuesday caused officials to believe that the fire probably was set by some one who objected to the shipment of munitions of war for the Russian ar mics.
 The police centered their attention upon tracing the actions of D. Will mann, a longshoreman, who was ar rested last night on suspicion.

THE STOCK MARKET

New York, September 1s.-The Ans.o. French commissions efforts to negotiate fnorifnoth loan occupied the larges, share of attention in Wall street las, week. There at first was ah iIhdertone of anxiety over the fresh possibilities of a diplomatic break with Germany, but the situation was viewed with more confidence later. Aside from the activity in war specialtes. the market was dull.
 Opposition to the proposed loan from certain quarters was weighed as a potsi ble obstacle. With the proceeds of the loan limited to expenditures fin this couf1- try, the requirements of neutrality would be considered secured By the government. Further restriction of the proceeds to merchandise purchases leaving ffiunitions to be paid for by gold or retiirned Ari1Ari- can securities, removed additional ob- jection and promised to bring increased support, even from banking interests with German sympathies.
 Aside from concern for the late corn crop the promise Of the soil's yield was uncouded.
 Further rise In price of cotton ex- tended this advantage to the south.
 Railroads appeared as equipment buy CTS. Surplus freight cars decreased ana improved earnings were reported By sev- erAl systems.
 The steel industry continued to improve in manner calculated to make for ex- trene optimism in that quarter. General trade reports are of more encouraging tenor.
