To the Editor of The Chicago Trtoune: Bin: It seems to me that the great fire has made many good people go to extremes ip their plans of reconstruction en a fire-proof basis. Thick walls atone do not necessarily protect tee building and its contents, to most fires, the dan- ger comes from front and rear, where are open- ings for doors and windows. In our fire, it came chiefly from tee roofs. From my observation during tea fire, I am convinced that it* rapid spread was ooessioned, chiefly, by (be mtemtton ef sparks and fire-brands by the roofs sad cornices en whieh they fell, when at long distances from the fire, and which at once started new fires; also, by the reflection of the heat from baraing building* across the street, acting upon te© wooden cornices and glass Watoowe. of the fire, kindle by the heat on the wooden oor- nloe, and bum down. In others, the neat would snap and break the glass windows, burn the goohs and wood-work iuaide, and consume the block. Th© walls, la nearly sllcases, without regard to thickness or construction, restated the fire, and stood firm, until the interior was one mass of flame from bottom te top, and the joists were burned off and burned up. There hasn't been a wagon lead of charred wood found in the debris.
