AN RDE


Fircmcn Object to Latest Rule Is
sued from Headquarters.
Firemen throughout Greater New
York are vigorously protesting
against an order issued Thursday
bearing the signature of Chief Crok-
er, but instigatcd, they assert, by
Deputy Commissioner Bonner, whose
interference previously has caused
resentment.
BY the ruling, which went into
effect yesterday morning, it is pro-
vided that two men make the daily
tours, dividing the work equally. 1t
is required that one man shall be at
the patrol desk at all hours. This
means that each man will have to do
house watch duty every day, leaving
little or no time for recreation. The
two men on duty have to work shifts
of s a. m. until noon, from 8 p. m.
until midnight on one day, and again
from G a. m. until s n. m, from noon
until 4 D. n. of the second day, and
from midnight until 6 a. m. Of the
third day.

REFUSE To
USE new FERRY SLIP
Fear Serious Collision Would Result
at St. George End OF the
Municipal Line.

Pilots of the Municipal Staten ISL
and ferry positively refuse to assume
the responsibility of bringing the big
boats n the new slip at st. George,
because of it's shortness and the dam
ger of collision with any other boat
which might be IN the adjoining slip.
The pilots will not use the slip,
which has been completed six weeks,
asserting that it is more than one
hundred feet too short and the cur
rent at the end of the slip is so
strong that if the boat did not make
the slip the adjoining slip would be
demolished, and if there was another
boat in the other slip it would be
rammed and driven up on the bridge,
probably resulting the loss of life.
