at Twentieth and Main stlestB was reaG,
Mr.. Bailey, member for that ward, moved
that the application be referred TO the
Committee on Petitions and R4mon-
stracCes for lnvestig ,iUn. Mr. Bailey
stated rs his reason, that be was in-
formed that the applicant came here
from East Liverpool where he failed to
get license, and that his application
was ruse on the part Of saloon.keeper
who was afraid to come before the body
for license in his own name. He also
said that the saloon was being fitted up
with stalls, which led him and others to
believe the place was not TO be kept in
strict accordance with morality. Mr..
Bailey's motion prevailed.

TWO MORE FlReMeN HURT.
One Has Ladder damned Into Him. An
other Steps ona Nail.

The figure 2 seemed 10 be in the ascend
ant in the horoscope OF the Fire Depart
ment Yesterday. There were two alarms within
two hours. The first was a little before ~
O'Clock and the second was 20 minutes 10 =.
Two fremen were injured. one OF them by No.
truck. No. = steamer also responded 20 the hrst
alarm. which was caused by tho burning OF tow
shingles on 552s Concord street. AZ the second
fire the damage was placed at s2 800.
Jt Is thought that sparks from Chesapeake
and Ohio engine set IRE 20 the Concord-street
house. The loss was triftng
While several mon from No. Hook-and-Lad-
der were carrying a ladder tho driver attempted
10 take the truck past them, and In 80 doing
struck the ladder, iamming it into the stomach
OF Mr.. w. T.. Crittonden, injuring him quite
badly. Mr.. Crittenden was carried home and
put TO bed. What makes his suffering much
worse than &c would have been otherwise II the
fact that he recently had tunor removed from
his stomach.
The hre at 1:4O p. NJ was much more serious
az regards damage. It was at the printing-orce
Of Mr.. Harvey Wilson, q wooden building in the
rear Of his residence, No 3 east Clay street.
The flames started, Chief Fuller thought, from
the engine, in which liquid fuel was used but
Mr.. Wilson said there was no 1re In IL. They
spread quite rapidly owing 20 the tnhammable
nature OF the building and contents. When the
fire department arrived the whole place was IN
blAze. Steamers and were put 70 work and
soon had the fire out SO Intense was the heat
that the type wac melted.
There was an insurance Of $4,000 on tho pro-
perty burned. Mr.. Charles W. Myer, Of Engine
Company No. 4, while carrying stream into
the burning building stepped on an upright nail,
running It into his foot some distance and In
Turing II quite badly.

by Mr.. Wilson. did not make its appearance
last night I'm consequence Of the fire. IL will issue
