work only at intervals since, and then
only for a day or two at a time.
Recently the motorman's condition
grew worse, and he has been carried
on the sick list. Since the first of the
year the man received the maximum
allotment of sick benefits under the
company's welfare plan, and as he has
a family, he was in need of financial
assistance. Lotsey's case was laid be-
fore the welfare committee, and al
though neither his g nor term Of
employment warranted his receiving
a pension under the ~company's rules,
the unusual nature of his disability
and it's cause prompted the COMMITTEES
to make an exception in his case.
Lotsey lives in Burnett avenue, Hill

battalion chiefs Must stand Exam.

BnttAiton 0nhetb Mubt otunu CAnAh'
Because there are several battalion
chiefs, those that aspire for promotion
will have to take an examination. At
the present time the men that are
prominently mentioned for the position
are Chiefs Towey. Moore and McDer-
mitt.
1t has been said that after Chief
Sloan has been promoted that he may
retire. Although Mr.. Sloan has said
nothing on the matter, the situation Is
not believed to be impossible. In that
event there will be a general shift in
the department because Of the neces-
sary promotions from battalion to
deputy chief and chief and from cap
tains to battalion chiefs. The a~spirants
for the higher offices are watching the
actions of the board with a great deal
of interest, and speculation is rife
among the rank and file as to Who Will
be the fortunate men to rise in the
general shift.
In the matter of raising the salaries
of members of the Office staff, the Civil
Service Commission is of the belief
that the matter should be decided by
the law department OF the city. The
uncertainty about the whole affair was
brought about when Auditor Rowe
notified the board that they could not
raise salaries at this time because of
the fact that there was no money at
hand. In the letter from Trenton, Mr..
Colby said that Colonel Mullikin had
made an ora1 explanation of the situa-
ton, and the inference made by Mr..
Rowe was that the ordinance referring
to the appropriations of the fire depart
ment was being violated. Mr.. Colby
advised that the law department settle
that question, but said that In the
matter of increasing the salary OF
Captain Gasser and Secretary sullivan
the inc. ease would mean a promotion
and would take the men out of their
present class. But since there are no
similar positions. he declared. this
could be done without the men taking
an examination for what is termed a
promotion.

NEW FIRE CHIEF
NEED NOT TAKE
AN EXAMINATION
Civil Service Board Settles
Doubt Favorably for
Mi. Sloan.

Two communications concerning fire
department matters were received to-
day at fire headquarters from the Civh
Service Commission. one refers to the
resembling OF the motion of the board
to increase certain salaries and the
other states that Deputy Chief Sloan
need take M examination for promo
ton to chief engineer to succeed the
late Chief Ashley
Although 1t was assumed by those
acquainted with municipal affairs and
the civil service law that Chief Sloan
was the logical man for chief engineer.
the fire commissioners, in order to be
on the safe side, asked the Civil Serv-
ice Commission TO make an Official III
depreciation of the law affecting this
matter.
Gardner Colby. the chief examiner,
wrote that since there Is no other m
lar office and since the duties of the
chief and deputy are about ak an
examination VIII be unnecessary. That
Deputy Chief Sloan viii be appointed
to the highest office in the department
seems an assured fact. The reason
that no action has been taken by the
commissioners before this Is due to the
fact that the members Of the board
decided to leave the matter In allegiance
until after the thirty days of mourning
for Chief Ashley shall have expired.
The next meeting of the board Will be
held June 7, and 1t is not unlikely that
the promotion will be made then, The
commissioners are noncommittal on the
matter and declare that at this time
there is nothing to discuss. They say
that the laws of the Civil Service Com
mission will be observed to the Utter
and that no favoritism will be shown
when 1t comes to the selection Of a
deputy chief from the ranks of the
battalion chiefs.

DYNAMITE BLAST SPREADS
PANIC AT JERSEY CITY
Carload OF Explosive Lets Go. Wreck

NEW YORK, Feb. Am explosion
OF a carload OF dynamite on barge
alongside a pier of the Central rail-

LABOR FEDERATION
FOR EASTERN time
Urges Council To Submit Question
To Vote-Central Standard Hard
ship For Workingmen.

The Detroit Federation of Labor has
taken decided stand In favor OF the
adoption OF Eastern standard time.
and, Tuesday night, sent commun,
ication to the common council urging
the submission Of the question to the
people in the coming spring election.
The Federation takes the stand that
Central standard has proven hard
ship for the workingmen from the
very outset. The communication.
which was accepted and placed on
file, Is, In part, as follows:
Central standard time has al
ways proved hardship TO the
workingman. Most shops and
factories have never adopted
same for their working hours,
but have adopted the so-called
split hour system. Evening gath
erings of all kinds begin at the
same hour by the clock as former
ly. This means that thousands OF
workingmen must either deprive
themselves OF social recreation
In the evening or be deprived OF
one-half hour of sleep. IN cases
where the even hour system has
been adopted II means working
men are deprived OF opportunities
for out-of-door recreation, which
is OF immense Importance to them
during many months OF the year,
as darkness comes earlier by the
clock than formerly.
BY the adoption OF Eastern
standard the even hour system
would again prevail and there
would be no loss of sleep as at
present. Further, IL would add
one-half hour more of available
daylight at the close of the day,
every day of the year, as daylight
would last one hour later by the
clock than at present. This would
be Of great advantage to the
workingman and In behalf OF the
workingmen OF Detroit we re-
specially request your honorable
body to submit the time question
as follows
Are you in favor OF Eastern
standard time. ............ Yes
Are you In favor of Eastern
standard time. ........... No
