Fire Chief Croker yesterday concerning

Engine Company No. g. Friday night at the
Grand Central Palace meeting held in the interests
of firemen and street sweepers Clifford favored
the of the two platoons BILL declared that
transfers made for political reasons, and that
only those fremen with pulls could get three
meals a day. In discussing the matter Chief
Croker said:
There have been charges preferred against
Foreman Clifford. What he says about transfers
by political pulls is absolutely untrue defy any
one to show that any fireman has been transferred
for political purposes during the ad-
ministra ton of Commissioner Scannell The rules
of the Department allow the take three
meals day If they wish. They have and one
quarter hours for each meal This time may be
taken for three meals. or the fireman may have
three and three-quarter hours all at once. The
record of Foreman Clifford does not show that he
did anything to warrant his promotion. He
was promoted under the reform administration, and
only the reform Commissioners know the reason.
If he does not like the rules of the Department
there is nothing to prevent his getting out OF
than three hundred officers in the Depart
ment not twenty favor the passage OF the two
platoons bill
