PRECAUTIONS AGAINST F1EE-A PETITION
TO THE COUSCIL.-The following petition is
i'll circulation. and will receive the sigma
ture Of almost every property holder TO
whose notice it is brought. The reforms
therein suggested are not now for the first
time spoken. The idea of the necessity of
the regulations proposed, and ofthe import
ance OF our having an additional steam en-
CINE, must have been suggested by the late
disastrous fires to every thinking mind.
The Common Council will do the will of the
people in needing the prayer of the petit
TONERS.
This is the petition:
" TO the Honorable Council Of the City Of
RichmOnd:
"Thc undersigned property holders in this
city respectfully represent to your honora-
able body that they believe some addition to
the present force of the fire department, and
certain provisions regulating by ordinance
the mode of building in the city, are indis-
pensable to provide against the dangers Of
fire.
"We respectfully suggest that another
steam. fire engine be contracted for and
placed in the engine house on Broad near
Ninth street, and the hand engine removed
from that house to some suitable point on
Church Hill.
''We also suggest that within certain limits
the erection of any house built Of wood he
forbidden that the division walls separating
brick tenements be required to extend above
the roof at least Il foot and a half, and that
the wooden beams shall i'll no case run
through division walls from one tenement
TO another, nor heavy wooden cornices be
allowed. \ full consideration Of the SUBJ
jcct will suggest other precautions to your
committee, and afford security for the fu-
ture against widespread conflagration."
