SPECIAL MEETING
|. Of commissioners
Two Vacancies in Fire Depart
nent to be Felled Thursday
Night.

4 special meeting Of the Fire Com
missioners will probably be held
Thursday night for the purpose of
electing men to fiji two vacancies.
The phases connected with one of
the vacancies are out of the ordinary.
They deal with the recent dismissal of
Fireman F. I. O'Neiil from Engine
Company No. 2, and the election of
Substitute w. NJ. Mitchell to fill the
vacancy thus created, Mitchell was
elected with the proviso that he first
pass physical examination at the
hands at DR. paAeFty t4if4eAfnat,, the
physician for the fire department, be-
fore receiving his appointment. The
examination was given Wednesday
and Mitchell failed TO pass.
This Ia not the first time Mr.. Mitch
ell has failed to pass such an exami-
nation. Several years ago he was sta
ton man in Engine Company No. z
He resigned, but later went back Ia
the sefsice as substitute at Engine
Company No. s. When the depart
ment was reorganized about two years
ago Mitchell was dropped after II had
been ascertained through medical ex-
animation that he was victim OF
heart disease.
A few months later Mitchell again
entered the service as substitute, in
which capacity he has since served
until his election to the position OF
fireman in grade B on Monday night.
His failure TO pass the examination
Wednesday leaves vacancy which
probably will be filled tonight.
The second vacancy te-be flied Is
caused by the resignation OF w. p.
Keyes, station man at Engine Com
pany No. L. Keyes attained eonsid-
cradle notiriety in connection with
the recent reports Of discomfort at the
engine house in question. 1t was re-
ported al that time that keyes in
tended to resign. His resignation has
now been received, and win no doubt
be accepted by the board. A successor
Will then be chosen.
Reyes has been connected with the
department for many years, and has
long meen considered one of it's most
efficient men.

ttoNfinMea from FIRST FaEet9
from the Mckay Engineering Com
pans, of Baltimore.
Concerning the responsibility for the
cpnditions on Broad street. there
seems TO be a diversity Of opinion.
City Engineer Boiling has said that
IL Broad street lis made filthy and IL
crossings are not provided where need
I'd, the police should report the mat
ter and there should be court prose
Sutions.
Mayor Richardson. however. deciar-
afd Thursday morning that it was the
duty OF the city Engineer 10 see that
the work is properly done, and that If
the matters reach that stage where
they should be reported To the police,
the report should come from Mr.. Boil
Hng's office.
Mayor Richardson agreed that 1t
y WAS the duty Of the City Engineer to
see that the street is repaved and
placed in as good condition as 1t was
before being dug up, and said that this
might be done by detailing an inspec-
A tor from the City Engineers Office to

Not Enough Men.
" Mr.. Boiling has said that he watch
v ed some of the workmen ramming
back dirt on Broad street a few days
ago, and that they did not ram hard
I enough to break an egg" He admits
that the detailing OF an inspector TO
watch them work might prove effec-
tive, but he says he has not enough
men to be able TO do this.
At any rate" said Mr. Boiling. the
city viii not lose anything. The street
must be placed In good condition, ac-
nordfng to the terms OF the permit
Issued or the contractors will not be
paid. The city cannot lose"
Others, however, are of the opinion
that the city is losing. not financially
Il perhaps, but losing. nevertheless. every
