"A sResolution was Also Adopted as to the
Safety OfPublic Buildings and Halls
In Case of Fire.-Other Matt ers
of Importance

At the meeting of the city council
held Tuesday evening some very i'm
porant matters relating to the safety
of the people of the city were taken
up and disposed of. Among one Of
the things that received a good deal
of attention was the proposed
change in the FIRE department and
fire alarm system. The committee on
fire and water recommended that
the fire department be reduced from
forty to thirty-two men, exclusive
of the chief, making four companies
of eight men in company ia case
of fire alarm being turned in ali
companies are to respond and it is
for the fire chief to determine how
many companies he will need to con-
troll the fire. The committee also
recommended that change be made
in the fire alarm system SO that in
case of fire the box number as we'll
as the fire district will be blown.
When this is done the people and
firemen will be able to determine ex
actly where the fire is. The above
recommendation was adopted by the
council,
A resolution by Alderman Lamor-
eaux was also adopted as to the safe
ty of Public halls and buildings in
Case of fire, and the city attorney
was directed to draft an ordinance
and present it at the next Meeting
OF the council to regulate or
prohibit the use of ouildin! S until
ample means are provided for the
safety of the people IN case Of fire.
This is very good thing as some Of
these places would De d regular death
trap in case OF fire.
The committee on public buildings
were also directed to Investigate the
condition of the Holt building on
Washington avenue as to It's safety
with full power to act.
The city DOCK and some of the
bridges which were reported 10 be
badly in need of repairs were
referred to the committee on roads
and bridges and the city attorney.
The usual number of bills were
audited and allowed and orders were
drawn for theic res pective amounts.
