FIRES TOO FREQUENT.
The Board of Underwriters Delivers
a Pointed Communication
to Councils
UNFOLDING CHIEF BROWNS STAND.
Governor PattiSOn Requested to Sign the
New Street and Curative Bills
Now Before Him.
UNFOLDING CHIEF BROWNS STAND.
ALIVELY TILT IN THE COMMON BRANCH.
Select Council Passes the New Poor Farm 0rdin-
ance Unanimously.

Chief Browns efforts to secure more
modern apparatus for the Bureau OF Fire
are being heartily seconded. The fact that
ordinary engines are not powerful enough to
cope with a great fire, as spoken of in THE
DISPATCH, has become generally manifest.
Some decided action will be taken
very soon. Already the Board of Fire
Underwriters has taken the matter into con-
sideration and has discovered, with very
little Investigation that Pittsburgh $ fire de-
partmeut is lacking in several of the more
modern applieances. The big Seventh street
Iire demonstrated to the board the inef-
ficiency of the equipments. When Select
Council convened in regular session yester-
day afternoon communication from the
Board of Underwriters was presented, con-
tanning the following resolution:
Need of Better Fire Protection.
Resolved. In view of the large number of great
and handsome buildings. many Of them towering
FROM seven To ten stories high, which have been
erected and are in course of construction in the
business center Of our city, and which not only
add 10 the beauty and prosperity, but largely
heneft the city i'm added taxable property, and are
therefore entitled to full protection possible
by the IRE and water departments; and also.
In view Of the fact that the fire department
must depend upon apparatus and engines provided
for past years-when few, if any, buildings eN-
ceeded four stories in height-but which are en-
tirey inadequate for present necessities, and the
department is therefore unable to do effective
service rs they might with better equipment,
Therefore The Board of Underwriters would re-
spcctfully petition the councils of Pittsburg that
they make such appropriations TO the De-
parfmeut of Public Safety would enable the de-
partment 10 provide better and more powerful ap-
paratus for the fire department in the line of a
movable water tower, such appliances as will
assure the most efficiency from tie best of ell
gnes. }. B. MCFADDEN, Secretary.
Referred to Champion of the Matter.
The communication was referred to the
Chief OF the Department of Public Safety.
There is little doubt about Chief Browns.
action on the matter. He has frequently eX-
pressed his belief that the Bureau of Fire
was not fully equipped, and argued in favor
OF a fire boat and water tower. While both
of these could be used to good effect, either
alone would be great Improvement over
the present system.
Chief Brown will consider the question ofa
water tower to-day and decide on some ac-
tion on the communication. The paper did
not reach Common Council.
