Chief Belt Of Fire Department Submits
Report-Some Recommendations.


Chief Engineer W. T. Belt of the fire de-
partment today submitted the report of the
operations of the fire department for the
moath of May. He states that he is very
much in favor of cisterns being located
In the congested portions of the city. as
tests of those now in service at 7th street
and Pennsylvania avenue, 10th street and
PENNSYLVANIA avenue and 18th and F
streets have proved to be satisfactory, an
effective fire stream being obtained. The
pressure on the fire hydrant showed very
slight decrease, in fact 50 small that there
would be ample water to supply an engine
in case of fire.
Chief Belt is also very much pleased
with the result obtained from changing
the uniform of the firemen. He states that
| the men are much heater in appearance
/ than they were and the expense of chang
| ing the same was In no way increased. the
cost of the uniform being the same as the
| old ores.
l Fire Marshal Bieber's report was in
closed In which he reports that he investi-
gated 90 alarms of fire during the month.
Al bell alarms and IS local The fires for
which they We're sounded caused an esti-
| mated loss Of SIG, 430, or fraction over
| 12A per cent of the total insurance on the
property s126.SO0. Forty-two of the fires
| occurred In brick buildings, IA in frame
buildings in a stone structure. OF rub
bish, fire on public dump. ! fruit
/
| bridge, 1 a wood fire. manure pile. a
| frame coach. 1 automobile and the other
1 two were false alarms.
| Fire Marshal Beber Invites attention to
the decreased number of false alarms dur
! ing the month, and attributes the same to
the rigid Investigations that have been In
stuffed against the offenders.
| Chief Belt today recommended that Pri-
waite D. Walsh of Engine Company No.
be commended by the Commissioners for
the action he took in apprehending crazy
man at 1887 10th street. where Engine
Company No. Z, to which he Is assigned,
| responded for a IRE.
| When the company arrived on the scene
1t was found that the alarm was false 80
far as to fire, but that there was man
locked In O room who was breaking things
up. Realising that something should be
done Ia the matter. Private Walsh broke
down the door with an az and oyerpower-
/ ed the man and placed him In the patro
1 wagon. which by this time had arrived or

Well, sir, when old man Gates had
been speaking two minutes, the peo-
pie who had started away, resumed
their seats. Within ten minutes all
the seats had been taken. Whoever
came within his hearing crowded up
as close as possible, and craned and
listened, and laughed and applauded,
and before the speech ended the
whole hillside was full of people
straining their ears.
1t was an argument for the Farm
ers' Alliance, for organization. 1t
was entirely logical and copiously IL
Illustrated with the anecdotes and
sparkles of wit that provoked roars
of laughter. For instance:

speech.
