FIRE CHEF STOCKTON HURT
Driver CordeS says Accident
Could Not Have Been Avoid

bility for 1t.

What might have been very SER
ious accident but for the prompt action
Of Louis cordes, driver of the chemi-
cal engine, occurred at 10 o'clock yes
terday morning. when FIRE alarm
came In. The chemical engine was
slow In getting out of It's house on ac-
count of an accident, ana when the
horses finally dashed into the street
the chemical collided with hose wagon
No. /. which was being driven up the
street at great speed. MF. Cordes man
aged to hold his horses in check and
the force OF the collision was not as
great as otherwise would have been
the case.
The accident, which resulted in the
breaking of the chemical engine tongue,
has prompted Chief Stockton 10 refer
unkindly to Driver Cordes and various
statements as to the cause of the acci-
dent have been made. Yesterday an
Astorian representative talked with the
driver, who made the following state
ment as to the cause of the accident:
Il had just finished currying the
horses and was in the shed in the rear
Of the house when the gong sounded.
! ran into the engine house and found
the harness on the floor 1T is the custom
OF Mr., Arrigoni, engineer of the chemi-
cal, to place the harness on one of the
horses, while l harness the other. On
several occasions of late he has drop
ped the harness and the accident was
reepated yesterday Once the harness
is dropped on the floor 1t requires some
little time to get it on the horses, and
l was consequently delayed yesterday.
"One Of our horses, Sullivan is very
prompt to rush out of the house when
an alarm comes In, and If the doors
are not open he starts for the street
just the same as If the doors are open,
Yesterday he acted as usual. The mo-
ment the harness was in place he leap
ed for the door, while / sprand onto
the seat. Just as I pulled the cords
which opens the doors ] heard the
gong of the hose wagon as it came up
the street, and at che same instant

ill the hose wagon had passed before
leaving the house ! realized the dan
