lice Departments will take place on De-
cember u. Chief Dutton. OF the Fire

Efoners departure from the usual Gus
tom in regard to that department He
recommends that eight engine companies,
three trucks, and two chemical engines

against fire which might break out dur
Ing the parade
Chief button states that the depart
ment would then be represented by eight
steam engines, three trucks, one chemical
5ngine. and the water tower, and their
companies in the parade. under command
Of the Senior Assistant Chief Engineer
Mr. DuttoD Sives as his reasons for the
recommendation that the department is
Cnly half as large as it ought to be, and
that to take all the engines 2nd appara-
tCs away from quarters during the parade
would be to plce the cicy temporarily at
the mercy Of any irs which might get un-
der way. He suggests that in case \
fire should occur IN remote part OF the
city, it would be impossible TO respond TO
1t quickly. Moreover, ne says. the boilers
IN the engines during the parade are cold.
and the firing OF them Tor action would
result in still further delay
In view OF these facts Ch!af Dutton
asks the Commissioners 20 permit him to
parade only half OF his department..

 The city is making some repairs on the old library building and the pres ence of the workmen there has prompted many to remark that 1t would be move in the right direction if the city fathers would come togeth- CT and devise means whereby suita- ble vault shall be built for all the val uable property in the bureau of en- gineering. The, maps in the office of the city engineer are of such impor- tance that the city would be in bad fix in case they should be destroyed, and it would be good business policy to build a vault for them, no matter what it costs. At present most of them are on shelves and would be converted into ashes in case a little fire should occur.
