TAKING TESTIMONY.
Investigation of the Charges Made by the
Police Against the Fire Department

Investigation Of the Charges Made by the
Police Against the Fire Department.
President Delano of the fire board took
testimony yesterday in the matter of the
charges made by the police force against the
fire department, alleging that the officers are
not allowed to use the telephones at the en-
CINE houses to communicate with police
headquarters and call the patrol wagon.
The officer on duty at night on Dayton's
bluff testified that when a row occurred on
his beat st. Patrick's night he sent mes
senger to the house of chemical engine No.
2 to telephone for the wagon, while he
watched the house where the
men he wished to arrest were
hiding The messenger came back
with the word that the watchman at the house
would not call the wagon. The officer did
not get the assistance he required aud his
prisoners, who were important ones, escaped.
Other officers testified that they had been
refused the use of the telephones in
different houses. Captains of different
companies testified that they never failed TO
telephone for the wagon when requested to
do so 10y the officers, but they were ordered
to let no one use the instruments except Off
GERS of the fire department. The Waterman
of chemical No 2, who refused to call the
wagon st. Patrick's night testified that the
appearance and manner of the messengers
the officer sent did not satisfy him of their
good faith, and so he refused their request
The investigation will be continued to-day.

THE ROBERT STREET BRIDGE.
Return of Mayor O'Brien from Washington
The Plans for the Bridge Submitted
General Gossip.
Mayor O'Brien returned yesterday from an

06ucTdl
Mayor O'Brien returned yesterday from an
absence of ten days in Washington, where
he went to submit to the war department the
plans for the proposed Robert street bridge.
His honor was seen by GLOBE reporter at
the city hall yesterday and he seemed very
much refreshed by his visit.
Replying to inquiries, he said that the
most of his time had been passed around the
war department, which had under consid-
Grafton the plans for the new bridge. He
had submitted the plans, and as yet they
were under consideration. In some respects
they had been found satisfactory and in
other respects they were not. Just how they
were to be altered had not been definitely
determined.
With reference to the political situation
and his impressions of the new admins tra-
ton he said that he had held several confer
ences with
HIS OLD FRIEND, COL. Villas,
the postmaster general, who was the hardest
working official he had ever seen. He was at
his Office at or 9 o'clock in the morning and
worked necessarily until Z O'Clock in the
evening, manifesting a determination to
familiarize himself with all the details of his
department.
The same might be said of the president
and all the members of his cabinet, and it was
very evident that before taking action with
regard to removals, etc., they proposed to
know the workings of the departments thor
oughly. 1t was emphatically business adj
ministration and one that kept in mind first
and paramount the benefit of the people of
the whole country.
''AnY talk about the district attorneyship
yetn'
ct was not alluded to while I was in
Washington. l can say this, that I have
made
NO APPLICATION
for it, and I haven't any idea of who will ct
it.''
AS near as I could learn the general i'm
preston in Washington, even among Re-
publicans, is in favor of the administration
and general confidence is expressed. l saw
Senator Spooner and he is hard at work and
is destined to take high position in the
senate. He is fine lawyer, possesses a
rounded mind, is very eloquent and he is
devoting himself diligently to his duties. So
far as any changes 60, l don't think there
will be very many important ones until
the members of the cabinet obtain a complete
and detailed knowledge of their departments.
The only persons who seem at all discomfort
ed are the supernumeraries in the depart
ments, where retrenchments have heen made
for purposes of economy, but on the whole
there is feeling of contentment in Wash
ington and no bad prophecies.
The mayor then dilated at some length on
the sights of the national capital, the Wash
ington monument and the capitol building
having impressed him as being most mag
nifcent and worthy of the country.
