DID NOT ATTEMPT IT.
Turnpike People Sent no Men to Work
West iVnrkrt Street.
As predicted In yesterday's Tribune,
there was no clash on West Market
street The city's, force of eight men
continued repairing the road and the
turnpike people made no attempt to put
any men to work, not thnuig'i feur of
the city's threat to arrest them, but e
CHlise it was satisfied to have the city do
the work itself, which to them was bet
ter than having- It done at the city's
expense and taklnir chances on collect
ing afterwards.
The Turnpike company will Insist on
having the work done In a thorough
manner, and If It Is not so done, will do
It themselves. o the clouds of war
have nut blown away altogether and
some fun may yet result.
COAL EXCHANGE FIRE.
Upper Floors Settled by an Enormous
WeightInsurance $25,000 Be
low the Damage.
Wbut cutised the lire 111 the Coal
Exchange building has not been deter
mined. Chief Hickey. of the lire de
partment, scouts the Idea that, a faulty
electric wire had anything to do wilh
It. He believes un accumulation of
waste and dust near the foot of the ele
vator shaft was the source.
John Jermyn, owner of tho building,
does not agree Willi Chief Hickey. The
former Is of opinion that the electric
wires at the top of the shaft cuused the
first Hume and that the lire at. the bot
tom was mailt by embers which drop
ped from above.
Whatever the lire's source, those whu
know tho building tire surprised, now
Hint the excitement is over, that the
structure was not wholly destroyed. It
Is far from being lire-proof and Its
three large duuhlc skylights, elevator
shaft and open interior areas furnish
ed u powerful draught for the Humes.
It all shows that heroic work was done
by the tirciucn.
FLOORS HAVE SETTLED.
Tt has been found that the enormous
nnd combined weight of water and
ninety safes has caused the upper floors
to settle to un alarming: extent, thus
entailing tin unexpected and Increased
cost In rebuilding. The ninety safes
in the ollices, assuming that they would
uverage 1,:.00 pounds each, weighed
infi.Wit pounds, or over 67 tons. In ad
dition to the weight of water and iron,
muny tons of paper was stored on the
third and fourth Hoots, occupied by the
Colliery Engineer.
The llg loss sustained by the retail
firms which occupied stores on the
street lloor has suggested anew the
necessity for an Insurance patrol. The
presence of proper rubber blankets and
men trained In the work would have
suved the Insurance companies a sum
of money sufficient to have maintained
an insurance patrol In the city for two
years, if not longer. Less lht.ii a year
ago the board of trade recommended a
patrol but its admonition was never
heeded.
There is no crfuse for changing the
amount of damage as It was ftrst esti
mated by The Tribune, $1".0.000. The
insurance will fall about $25,0(10 short
of that figure.
MAJOR MILLAR'S RESIGNATION.
