Work on the Union.

The statement which appeared in a Boston newspaper Friday--to the effect that the Cambridge Inspector of Buildings had ordered work stopped on the Union, until satisfactory provisions has been made for fire escapes from the third story--was incorrect. The contractor has stated that there has never been any question as to the adequacy of the provisions in case of fire. There are three different stairways leading down from the third floor, all of them accessible from any part of it. A double force of workmen will be employed on the building, beginning this week, in order that the plastering may be done with greater despatch. The exterior of the building is now completed, except for the carving over the front door.
