The Firemen's Appropriations and
the City Council.
Annnnolls. Feh. 2. no

Annapolis, Feb. ,, 1907.
Mr.. Editor I'm your valuable paper
of January 81, '07, under the head OF
''City Councils Position on how
the firemen's money was appropriated
by the State, the gentleman acknowl-
edges that up TO 1906 n certain sum of
money had been appropriated by the
State for the firemen of our city, and
the same up to that time had been
divided equally between the three
com panies. If this be so, as he has
acknow ledged by what right does
Mayor Douw or the present City
Council withhold this money from
the fire companies of our city? The
law that appropriated the amount in
1906 is the same as it has always
been. and all of the City Councils
heretofore have given the firemen this
money. Custom, they say, makes
law, and why not follow out the GUS
tom that has been standing for years?
In reference to the ten thousand
dollars for the city fire department
from the State, / am sure the gentle
man need not lose any sleep nor need
his friend from Caroline county. He
has never had the honor of being a
member of the House or Senate of
Maryland, and | am sure neither of
them will ever remember the State
giving the City Council of Annapolis
ten thousand dollars TO equip fire
department. How easy ii is for us to
talk about spending money that does
not belong to us This gentleman
is not any more interested in the
affairs of our city than any of the
rest of its good men. We had a fire
department before he came here. We
will have one il he leaves tomorrow,
and one that will stand the test with
any other volunteer fire department in
or out of our State. Our three COM
panies have n record that they may
be proud of. We know that money ap-
propriated py the State is for the
purpose of aiding to protect the State
buildings. Is not the money appro-
priated by the city for the purpose
of aiding and protecting our homes
in times of fire? If it is spent in
adorning the .fremen's quarters, if it
is spent in keeping the apparatus in
good order or in any other way To the
best interest of the fire department, is
this not satisfactory to the public?
I would like to know for what
other purpose is the money appropri-
ated, but to keep the lire apparatus
in working order and everything per-
tanning thereto in good condition.
What mas the public TO do about five
of the present City Councilmen be-
longing to the fire department? That
does not alter the case. For years
they have been given the money from
the State; for years it has been spent
in way that is n credit TO them and
the public. What more can one
ask? / cannot see at this late day
why they should be deprived of it,
when / am sure ii would be spent
for the good of all concerned. 1t is
theirs and theirs only, not for any
City Council TO withhold from them,
and if they don't get it they are be-
ing deprived of their own.
Respectfully,
JAMES III. MURDOCH.

Submarines For Academy

Word has been received here that
the Navy Department will dispatch
the submarines Porpoise, Shark and
Plunger to the Naval Academy for the
purpose of instructing the midship-
men in that important line of naval
warfare. The boats are expected 10
arrive about March ] and will be ac-
companied by the submarine tender
Nina.
The submarine Holland was in use
at the Naval Academy up to short
time ago, when its batteries gave out
and were not replaced. The WORK in
the Holland formed an interesting
and instructive part of the practical
course of the midshipmen. The de-
tail of the four vessels TO the Acad-
emy indicates the increasing value of
that type in naval operations and
the desire to give the midshipmen
the benefit of the instructions in that
branch.

final consummation of the sale of
Hackett's Point To his client. Mr.. j.
;. ;. Remsen, of Brooklyn, y. Y.
The late owner. Mr.. b. u. Springs.

pointed clients, the sale being con
summatsd by telegraph, full partic-

acter, having n cIientage of wealthy
people and it is the fashion nova
days for the rich TO have country
