In reply to this note, Capt c. invited Mr. Pea.
body to meet Mr. Dickson and others at his office
last night, to consider the matter, remarRing at
the time that he thought 1t would be well that
the Government department should show a little
courtesy to the c. ief of the city department rs to
whether they should serye at fires, but that when
the Government were generous enough IN SEMI cr.
pcrienced men with ste an fire engines, with chief
who thoroughly understands FIRE matters, las MI
Dixon undoubtedly doesJ he could not see why
such restrictions were to be placed upon 1t, Mr..
Peabody did not attend the meeting, and the mat
ter still remains 10 saiu quo. By the scknowledr.
ments OF all citizens who have been present at a
fire In this city lately, the Steam Fire Department
is a success, and Mr.. Dixon is fully competent, to
suPerintend its workings.
