Saia AKaanst tie CITY.

AOut 10 mOutn6 ago Olty OO1nCll
granted the petition Of the Phoenix Fire
Company and number of residents in
the vicinity Of their engine house at
Twelfth and King streets, to have fire
striker put in the tower on their build
ing. At that time Mr.. johnson was
Chairman of the Fire Comm ittee of
Council, and after negotiating with the
Gamewell Compan Of Baltimore, and
finding that their price was s6I5 for an
apparatus, such as was required, con.
trsc'ed with George NJ. Stevens, of
Boston, to put up one of his patent
strikers at $3.50.
Before the contract WAS signed, the
lGamewell Company, which apparently
thinks 1t owns Wilmington, notified
was put up they would enter suit
against the city tor an infringement OF
their patent.
When this was reported to Mr..
Stevens, he promptly offered 10 give a
bond, indemnifyinR the city against
any loss, and deposited $500 in the
U nion National Bank, subject to Mr.
Johnson q order, 10 pay any damages
that might be incurred. The striker
was completed June 9th, 1884. and on
Saturday, the 7th, Mr.. Merris Taylor
was elected to Council in place Of Mr..
johnson, and when the committees
we're made up for the ensuing year, Mr..
Blake was made Chairman of the Fire
Com mittee.
On June 9th, the day before the elec-
tion, the striker was tested Dy William
7. Westbrook, who at the time was
superintendent of the fire alarm tele.
graph, and found to strike correctly,
and work satisfactory in every respect.
Such being the case it was accepted
by Mr.. johnson and the Fire Commit
tee, but whom Mr.. Blake became chair
man, he refused to pay the bill, and
has not settled it yet.
Mr.. Stevens has been to this city seve
raj times, and was present when the
striker was tested, and 1t has proved
satisfactory in every instance, and even
better than the Gamewell apparatus on
the City Hall, During the past four
,nonths the Stevens striker has not
made a single miss, and it il said
that Superintendent Aydon, of the
fire alarm telegraph, has reported that
the apparatus was satisfactory in every
resrect, but it is claimed that this re-
port was never presented to Counc !.
1t is the opinion of many that it is
the intention of Mr.. Blake to try and
worry Mr.. Stevens out, so that he will
remove the striker and give him an
opportunity to have Gameweli ap.
paratus put in, but il such is the fact,
it is probable he will find himself In
error, as Mr.. Stevens intends to enter
suit against the city to recover the
amount due him. As the Stevens
striker has proved satisfactory, and
been accepted by a committee Of Couu-
| Gil, there is no doubt but the Courts
will compel the city to pay for 1t; still
1t would be more interesting to the tax
payers were they assured that Mr.
Blake would either pay the costs of thil
unu ecessary suit out of his own pocket
or see that they were paid by the Game
we'll Company in which he takes such
deep interest.

Tho father, mothsr and three children
slept on the ground floor, and the other
children slept in the second story.
Shortly before eleven O'Clock Mr.. Evans
was awakened by strange noises, and,
under the impression that burg lars
were on the premises, he proceeded to
reconnoitre. He soon discovered that
the roof Of his little home was q macs
of flames. Thinking of his children he
rushed 70 their rescue, but before he
could reach them the roof fell in, and
In few minutes the upper story was
a sea Of fire. Nothing could be done
and the parents were forced to stand by
and see their six chi rem perish in the
flames.
This morning intelligence of the
shocking calamity spread rapidly
throughout the community and hun
dreds gathered to view the spot. The
mangled remains of four Of the chill
dren, charred and uprecogn liable,
were gathered up. The other two were
apparently reduced to ashes. The pa
