AN OFFICIAL APOLOGY
Tendered by Chief Cronir-Quiei Again
Restored in the District Government

Chief Engineer Cronin Yesterday
obeyed the instructions of the Fire Beard and
wrote letter of apology to District Commissioner
Morgan, disclaiming any Intentional incivility or
! INSTRUMENTATION toward the Commissioner by the
! language he addressed TO him at the Heurich fire.
and apologizing for his too abrupt manner of adj
dressing him. He states fuEher in hi letiST1 tha+
si,.. always b, tVia.Iuer the impression that the
authority of the chief engineer of the fire depart
ment made by law was supreme CT fire, for the
reason that some definite plan of action must be
adopted aud pursued, under one controlling head,
to insure prompt and efficient work. but that the
instructions of the District Commissioners, trans
mitted through the Board of Fire Commissioners,
will hereafter be his guide, and viii meet with
prompt obedience, as all other orders from the
ecutive authority of the District As the letter is
satisfactory to Major Morgan, the matter is consid-
cred as entirely settled in official circles though it
still creates some talk outside. A gentleman who
was present at the fire when the passage of words
between Commissioner Morgan and Chief Engineer
Cronin took place says that the former
has not been fairly represented in the publications
that have been made. He states that Major Nor
gan was within a square of the brewery when the
fire broke out and Immediately proceeded to the
scene of the conlagratiOn that there was no en-
CINE company on the ground at the time. No. l
company the first to arrive, and took the plug
at Twentieth and NJ streets and ran the hose to
the alley between the building and the fire. No.
was next ON the ground and took the same plug,
and in the absence of the .chief engineer and as
sistant chief, Major Morgan gave Foreman Lowe
the order to attack the fire the south side of the
wagon shed. This was the only order he gave,
and this in the absence of both of the officers
named The remark that he made which called
out the chief engineer, and whom he then saw for
the first time. was addressed 20 the men of No. 6
company, who had the pipe but no stream. The
words used were, There's the fire, boysl" the
Major pointing to the burning raters in the stable
loft This was all that he said.

nearly all parts of the United States certifying to
some very wonderful cures. People brought to

A SUMMARY OF THE DAYS SPORT:
THE RACES TO-DAY.

To-day the racing will begin at halfpast twelve
O'clock as the unfinished heats of the pacing race
snd the 2:21 race makes the programme unusually
long The pool-selling at the National last night
was dull, owing probably to the fact that much of
the capital OF the poolbuyers is locked up in Mr..
Herdics box awaiting the result of the two un-
finished races of yesterday. In the pac-
ing race Matte was strong favorite
at $50 to 50 on the field, and in the 221 race Vol
tsire sold the fayorie at the rate of S5 to SIS
for the field. Unalala had the lead in the 2:2S
race, selling to l against the field. Kentuckian
was the popular choice in the 2S2 class at the rate
of SO, for SIS on the field. Granger and Aulinda
divided the honors in the 2:45 selling each at SIS,
