Cook, Assistant Chief, Arthur Martin and
Cook, Assistant Chief Arthur Martin and
ex-superintendent Of the fire alarm office,
Thomas Carey.
The amounts asked are for back salary
and are claimed under the ten per cent
reductions which the trio suffered in 1896,
when the fire board became imbued with
a spirit of economy. The contentious
are that the cut was without authority,
as the charter named their salaries. The
cut was in existence up to the time the
three were let out by the present board
and the citys defense will likely be
that no protest was entered when the
reduction was made.
