B1in: Soon aftor tho fire of October, 1871, inn communication to your paper, I euggested tho planof n graduatod firo-luw, atoop roofs, and doublo shutters, Bince then the donblo shuttors havo boen patented, aud ave exclugivoly used, having been testod and proven In many cases. The fnt roofs still romain, aud e havo fire-Iawa which autisfy no onc. Tho point T mado for stcep roofs was, thoy will shed tho fire-brands and sparks, whilo flat ones hold thom, A steep roof mado of pinc shine glos is botter shan any ilat roof whioh is notmado firo-proof. I do not advocato pino shingles in & comprotly built portion of the city, but the roofs should bo steep and mado of slate, tilo, or motal. My suggestion for & graduated fire-law was somothing of thila sort, viz: That within cor~ toin Jimits, sny Halsted, Twonty-second, aud Divislon stroets, all new buildings should bo of Tiricle or stone, and all framo buildings (unless T oxcopted yory small onew) thon existing swithin thoso limits should be oncaged in brick within ono year, Within thenoxt limits, eny ono 1nile farihor off, the same shall bo dono beforo the ond of two yonrs. In tho outsido district, threo yonra, New buildings of wood conld ba erectod in tho nocond and third distriots, but must also be encasod witbin tho timo, Hod thews suggestionn boen carried out, wo wonld to-day bave a brick-built city, I still think wo must adopt something of this sork, of inclosing our framo buildings in brick, or they witl burn anch other up, or be o continual men- ace to all bettor structnros, that mon aro_now sompollad to put up in tho vacant placos adjoin- ing, it presont pricos of brick and Iabor, £200 will ancaso & two-story framo houno, 23x40, without al- lowing cost of chavging window and door frames, whicls wonld be slight.” Ono hundred and twen- ty-fivo dollass will do an ordivary cottage, with d-inch wall. 1 havo now a now suggestion to meko on the fire-boulovard eystem. Perbaps it can uot bo adoptod, for “theto's no moncy mit.” Make Iinzie, Harrison, and Bixtcentn™ streets 250 to 850 foot wido from tho lake to the weatorn limits, and throw them opon to the railronds, to bo pud for and maininined by thom, including vinducts over thom, allowing them to run at full spood, and restricting them to koeping thoir tracks oleat of idlo cars, oxcopt ab tho terminus, Dopot and freight housos to be outsido tite track spaco. I vonturo to say, with Bixtoenth and Kinzie stresta boing now largoly takon and in use, that on theso terma moro railroads will apply for Har- rison streot than it will accommodato.
