PROTECT THE BUBINEES EECTION. To the Editor of The Chicago Trilnne : Sm: If *in the multitule of counsolors theroe is wisdom," Chicago hoa no rengon to com= plain, and snould be able to decido, wisely and wall, what moasurcs sro necossary and boest adaptad go securo the city, and cspecially tho busfness section, from wide-epread and destruo- tave firea [n tlo futuro. ‘Whilo the wholesalo destruction by firo of tho choap wooden buildings forming tho Lok of tho largest portion of the population of the city would bo & great calamity, it {8 by no menos tho greatest calamity that could befall Chicego, a8 theo housos could be rebuilt witnout materially aiTecting tho intorests of the eity. But the de- struction of tho business soction of the city by firo would be & much greater calnmity, and oue which would be (rflu{;ht with tho most torrible consequonces to all clussos of the community, “The objeotive point then is, or should be, the business scction of tuo city, Let this bo sur- rounted by certsin ressouably exiensive five- 1imits, extending north snd south frow Madison stieet, nud wost from Clark streot, inside of whichnono but substantial brick, stohe, or iron buildings sball bo erected, and from which all wouden and other dangerous Imflzh.zga sboll bo romoved in o cortaln specitled time. Streots 300 feet wido should form the boundary liue of such fire-limits, and should bo opencd up as 50ON B8 practicable, particularly sonth aud west of the rebuilt and busincss waction, Tho complote fsolation of the brick section of the city {rom tho wooden seotions, In the manner deseribed, gcoms to mo tho only practiosl method which pronises to bo reasvnably effective, ‘Lhis, with the reorganization and incrozse of tho T'iro Do- partment, and au onlargod water supply, would put tho busivess section of tho city iu s good state of defenso from fire from withcut, and in- cronse the means of succossfully resisung it in tho wooden districty, ‘Phe extonsion of the fire-limits to the llmits of tho city scems to me wholly uncalled for, aud would boproductive of no good yosuits, Besidus, there are somo fatal objeotions to this proposi- tion, In tho first placoe, such an ordinanse will neither secure the city agninst tho ravages of flro in the fatare, nor provent tboir .occurronce. 1n the next place, such au ordinunce will provo injurious to tho industrious working classes who form 80 largo u pmit of our lflupuhzmn, aud who aro so vitally nocossary to tho growth and pros- pority of tho city. Furthermore, ns whole sec- tions of tho city ars built almost entrely of woed, and will, probably, largely remain so, it seome worse than folly to expect by prohibiting thio oreotion of any wore wooden bulldings, that thus will work, aithier rapidly or giadually, the oxtinction of thoso now existivg, or thet brick houses will take tho plagy of he woodeu oues. Therefore, the erection of woodon bmldings in yomota sections of the city, whera this claes of buildings prevails, will not mako such iocalitien any movre dangerons than lh(a’ are sud will be, and should not be probibited. If, however, in tho hout of tho prosent oxcited state of tho pub- lic'mind, such an ordinunce is passed, it will surely bo ropealed or yemuin wholly moporative, .
