The ohief makes the following appeal for n " third man" at caeh of the flre huuses, and in this matter he has the sup port of all who are acquainted with the organization of our flre dopartment. "I deem it a duty te the dopartment and tnyself that councils and the publie at large be informed of the disadvantages the department labors under at the pres ent time In having but two permanent men ompleyod at oaeli ougtue heuse. We should have the third man, te be the ongl engl ongl neer, permanently ompleyod the same as the drivers. I will explain it te you in this way : At meal times, which occurs tlirce times oaeh day, our department is seriously crip led ; you can count six hours of cacti day that we have but enu man lu each heuse ; se you can see that during theso hours it is only pessible te get out ene apparatus. By having the third man porrnanently employed, we oeuld then arrange matters te loave the ouglne heuse with both apparatus at any moment. I will refer you te the lest threo or four alarms, all of which occurred at or near the dluuer hour. I hepe you will give this your most oareful considera tion." The chief congratulates oeunoils ou the absonceel tires during the year ; incendiar ism has net rolgned as hcretofero.nnd that oause of dread and horror seems te have been expelled from our midst. In conclusion the ohief extends his thanks te the mayor, the police, the 11 re oemtnittoo and his fellow llromeo, for thelr valuable aid and uniform courtesy and kindness during the year. l'lre Department matters. The monthly repert of the oemmitteo ou lire engines and hese was read.

The Washington cupola is en tirely tee weak te sustain the Empire bell, se that a new tower would have te be built ; the prosent stabling would have te b3 tern down and the building oxtendotl te the rear, and when done, the steam ongine and the truek would have te pass iu and out of tbe same narrow entrance, causing great Incenvenience. The removal of tbe big bell, wires, nnd alarm apparatus, from tbe Empire te the Washington building would also involve heavy oxpeuse. The committee had examined tbe premises and considered the cost nud wero oenviuood that it would be much better te loave the truck whera it is in the Empire building, whieh is well suited for the purpese, well Ioeated, and permits the truck te avoid the railroad, in ruuniug te and returning from fires. Mr. Evans reminded councils that the ordinance roergauizlng the dopartment provided umeug ether things that the hook ami ladder truek should be housed with ene of the ongines. He thought the price propesod te be paid for the Emplre building was tee high. If it oeuld be pur chased for a sum net oxeeoding $2,500, he would vote for it. Alter seme further debate he moved that the oemmitteo be authorized te purohaFe the prepetty at a sum net exceediug $2,500. Tbe motion was agreed te. Common council concurred. A mossage from the mayor rolatlve te the resolution passed by tbe Pennsylvania Logislature, favoring a liberal Indian pol icy, and the aotien takeu thoreon by oem meu council at its last meeting, was read, together with the resolution and notion of eommeu oeunoils.
