The head OF the fire department com
plains that al the fire on Friday evening
The pressure of one hydrant was so light
that good work could not be done. The
pressure from one plug was all right,
while the other was low-that is true:
but as q matter of fact the chief carried
his hose downfall LOCO feet TO connect
with a plug on Main, when there was
one on Grove street, 200 feet north Of the
fire, with a pressure of 10 pounds, which
was not used. The report OF the water
department shows this condition. There
was absolutely no need of complaint of
this kind say those in charge. It is be-
lieved that Devine did not know of the
existence of this plug at all.
