Law Complied With.

The law requires said Chief Neal,
that the state and local building in
spectors shall consult and determine
the proper means of egress from all
buildings. and if they are not sufficient
to order fire escapes installed on the
outside of the building. The St Johns
Parochial School building was care
fully examined and by computing the
width of the exits it was found that
they were sufficient to take care of
$50 children. Within the past few
days the entire school in a regular fire
drill was emptied in ninety seconds
The real fault in the building was
the fact that all the stairs led toward
the center of the building and not to-
ward the exits.
Il am convinced that the inspectors
did their duty. The investigation so
far as the state is concerned, .is over"
one of the many theories advanced
today to explain the origin of the fire
was that the sweepings, kept in the
basement storerOon, where the blaze
is believed to have started, may have
contained match heads. dropped on the
floor by some of the boy pupils
