Fire Chiefs Recommendations.

Fire Chief Belt notified the Commission
ers today that Private F. F. Lynch of No
truck company was recently found guilty
of reporting for duty while under the
influence of liquor, and recommended that
as punishment he be deprived of his days
off for six months. Chief Belt saia the
charges against the fireman were pre-
ferred by Lieut.. j. b. Watt, and that he
would have recommended a more severe
penalty but for the fact that from per-
sonaf observation he is convinced Lynch
is not habitual drinker and that he has
an excellent record. Since the charges
were preferred against him he has signed
a pledge to abstain from liquor for a
period of two years. The Commissioners
have approved Chief Belts recommenda-
tons.
The sick report of the. fire department
for December was also forwarded to the
Commissioners today by Chief Belt The
report showed that during that period
only twenty-one members Of the depart
ment were reported sick which number Is
looked upon as comparatively small. The
grip was the most prominent cause of this
sickness, eleven men out Of the twenty
one having this malady Five were suf-
fering from injuries received in the line
of duty. two from sciatica. one from
bronchitis. one from typhoid fever and
one from pneumonia.

1t was authoritatively stated yesterday
that the excise board will grant the IL
oense applied for several weeks ago by
]. c. Thomas, steward of the Washing
ton Terminal Company, to sell liquor at
the new Union station, in spite of the
strong opposition and protests against
the sale of liquor at the new station
which have been made to the board since
the application was filed. The decision
In this case will not be made by the board
for several days. In the meantime, a
technical error in the form of the appli-
cation is being adjusted.
AS there are no dwellings within the
two-hundred-f foot radius of the station

of the Washington Terminal Company
was all that was necessary to accompany
the application and the only objections
that could be offered were those in the
form of sentiment, and as representing
the general community. Geo. w. Martin.
Superintendent of the Washington Ter
minal Company, signed the application
for the latter, which action was ques-
toned by Albert e. Shoemaker. who has
beeo leading the opposition to this license.
