they were simply obeying orders. They

called upon Chief Engineer Dsumead
yesterday afternoon and interviewed him
on the matter. He said:-
"The hremen of No. Is Engiue are SIM

placed In Greenville for service there

district in which it is located. 1t should
only answer those alarms which are
sounded from south of No. 1879 at
Woodlawn and Bergen avenues. Iu re-
gard to the fire at Mr.. Lakes residence l
fail to see where the company did not
obey orders. There was a still alarm
given for this blaze and no engine has a
right to 20 o. on such an alarm. Only
trucks are supposed to answer still
alaruls. Ii tne nre Is q large one q dell
alarm will be sem In to call
out the engine. No matter
how big the fire may be only trucks will l
respond to still alarms. Eagine Co ms

still alarm. The firemsn OF the compan y
first went to the scene. and then whe n a

1.-The police ought to MUD their own
business. The police of this city are of
no earthly use 30 the Fire Department.
Instead of keepind a tire line aud
preventing vehicles from running over

tell US what to do. Before the fire is half
sxt1pguished they rush about among us
and want to know the loss ana all the
particulars. No. s Engine is as good a
machine as we have In the city aud the

business il they can mind theirs, Why,
the police have even attempted to give
me orders. But it will be a cold day
