A communication was received from
Clerk Galligan stating that the printer
was almost up with his work and was
waiting for more ordinances to print.
He asked that the Branch give its atten.
ton to two papers lying on the table
"An ordinance in relation to the Sale
and Storage OF Gunpowder and Mining
or Blasting Powder" and IAN ordin.
snce in relation to Wharves, Wharf
Boats and Wharf Master" These papers
contain very few changes, and have
heretofore been explained. They were
passed.
The general license ordinance was re-
ceived IRON the First Branch with the
following amendment. After the word
"peddler" insert, cor any person or per.
sons not citizens who shall solicit orders
for furnishing hoods, wares or merchan.
disc OF any kind to any person except
merchants trading with merchants or
their agents." 1t was concurIed in.
There was a little discussion as to
whether this applied to book agents and
church fair solicitors; the general i'm
preston seemed to be that this was the
case.
FIRE DEPARTMENT MATTERS.
Another ordinance was now taken up
for the first time. 1t was one amending
certain sections OF the Fire Department
ordinance. 1t abollshes the extra men
in the engine houses and hook and
ladder house and makes few changes
IN salaries. To sum up it leaves the
working force OF the as department TO
lows: One Chief at ST 900 per annum
two Assistant Chiefs at 500 per annum
each; at the Vigilant five men at 5000
each per annum; at the Atlantic six men
at 5000 per annum; at the United five
men at 5000 each per annum: at. the
Eighth ward hose house two men
at 5000 each and four extramen
at $50 each; at the Hook and Ladder
two msn at $500 each; at the Hope
hose house and Island hose cart
foreman and four extramen at $50
each per annum.
The ordinance read that the appoint
ments OF these men were to be made by
the Fire Department, subject to con-
firmation by Council. Mr.. Baker moved
to amend by giving the appointing
power solely to the Chief; Mr.. Walters
opposed this; Mr.. McGranahan favored
it; Mr.. Wingerter opposed it as it made
it more oil political machine; Mr..
Kimberly made warm speech in its
favor, "a it commanded. respect for the
Chief that would not be forthcoming
otherwise. 1t was adopted by the fol.
lowing vote: Ayes, Baker, Clark, Dun
ming, Haller, Hoffman, Kimberly,
Laughlin, McGrsnahan, Robinson, Smith
and Steele.
Noes-Haberfield, Hildreth, Prince.
Walter, Wingerter and Warehouses;.
Mr.. Dunning offered an amendment
making the pay OF extra men 40 cents
per hour Tor actual work. There was
considerable discussion over this, but it
was adopted by vote OF o to 8.
This will necessitate extra men OF the
hose carts not attached to engines to be
on hand il they want their money.
There was then discussion as to all
paid men getting the same price, some
thinking that the engineer ought to re-
ceive more, as it took q man with skill
and education to run an engine proper
ly. Mr.. Wingerter moved, with the oh.
ject in view Of raising the engineers'
salaries, to reduce the hostlers TO $500
per annum, but afterwards withdrew it
Is it was shown that strong work was
expected from this party.
Mr.. Dunning moved that the engl.
neers be paid $3.50 per annum. which
motion was adopted. Mr.. Smith made
very sensible speech on this motion,
showing the necessity Of the same.
On the adoption Of the ordinance the
vote was: Ayes-Baker, CLARK, Dun
ming, Haberfeld. Haller, Hoffman, Kim.
