In his estimates Chief Wilmarth
places the cost of the equipment at
$2,736-61. Two horses. harness, furni-
ture. bedding, ETC., will amount to
$661.61- The chemical and hose wagon
will cost $1.750; SITS will be spent for a
Gamewell gong and indicator; $25 for
an alarm box and SIPS for tools, rub
Der coats, hats, etc Chief Wilmarth
says that it will take 1000 feet of hose
to accommodate this district.
The city engineer places his part of
the plans at $4.S23. He figures that the
building will cost $4,000. A drive well
with pump platform $40; one cess pool
with cover and trap door, $40; one au-
tomato tank for water supply, 5000;
automatic water heater s13. These plans
were also approved. This makes a to-
tai cost of $7,059.61.r It all looks well to
the councflmen. especially the enthusi-
astic workers from the Second ward.
But here is a question-how did Chief
Wilmarth fix up the odd 81 cents? This
is bother1ng the aldermen.
