But There Should be Some

ENGINES ARE READY.
Declares that Everything The
Firemen Can Do Has Been
ACCOMPLISHED.

Another fireman expresses his views
onathe question of steamers answer
ing the fire alarms. His letter, re.
ceived yesterday, is as follows:
Editor Evening News:
A word or two more about cur city 3
fire engines would give the public a
better idea of he actual condition OF
the local department.
The steamers today are ready to go
out, that is, as far as the firemeu can
get them. There is water in the boil
ers. They are oiled and cleaued and
in perfect working .order. Even the
fuel is in the box ready to ignite when
leaving tie doors Of the house. Bu;
after that, there would be nothing
to run the steamers with rs neither of
them can carry supply of coal that
will last an hour.
There are no supply wagons in case
the steamers go to a fire, they would
soon be useless. when they are
needed they will be needed badly
and a fire that it is necessary to use a
steamer at will surely last over an
hour.
Even if tha above condition is not
remedied and we should want to take
the steamers to a fire it will be neces
sary to have horses and harness, both
Of which will have to be good and
strong.
