FIRE CHIEF IS
GIVEN CHANCE
Aldermen Decide to Abandon
Charges Against Rocks
Committees Have Session.
ROCKS WAS PRESENT
Acting Mayor VOORHEES, Says
He Promised to be Good
in the Future.

As the result of negotiations be-
tween Acting Mayor William d.
Voorhees, and the committee on fire
of the Board Of Aldermen, 1t was
decided to abandon proceedings to
oust Chief Engineer Patrick j..
Rocks OF the fire department. at q
committee session OF the Board OF
Aldermen last night. The fire chief
appeared before the aldermen and
admitted his wrong-doing to some
extent, but denied having declared
himself and acted in such manner
as was reported
It appears that something more
than Mr.. Rocks pleas for clemency
stand behind the dismissal of charg-
es against him This action 1t is be-
lieved either resulted because of a
threatened strike OF the volunteer
fire department, or as concession
the organization Democrats made
to get Alderman Calvin closer to
their side. He voted against reso-
luton to have Rocks appear to an
swer to charges Monday night.
Mr.. Voorhees, said today that
Chief Rocks would probably not ap-
pear before the council Monday
night to answer to charges Of acting
in manner insurrectionary and det-
rimental to the good of the fire de-
partment, In accordance with the res
o1ution on the same adopted last
Monday nihgt. A few days ago a
Democratic alderman said Rocks
would be ousted one way or another,
Monday night.
Mr.. yoorhee ssaid today Mr..
Rocks agreed last night to 'sbe
good" in the future. He said he
admitted having taken a wrong
course, perhaps, but said he did not
know better as he had no copy of
fire ordinances and had not been ap-
prised of the usual course of pro-
cedure In making changes in the
fire department. He agreed to work
in conjunction with the fire COM
mittee ON matters or redistrietng
ETC., in the future
The ordinance to appoint chief
engineers and first and second as
sistans in the future, introduced at
the last meeting OF the Council, will
in all probability pass second and

MAY ADD $500
IF NECESSARY
Playground Board Likely to
Get the $4,000.

Appropriations for the coming
year were discussed at length at the
committee session of the Board of
Aldermen last night. The Public
Playground Commission will receive
$1,5e0 with which to experiment on
a playground and If it is shown
more money is needed the council
may grant an allowance from one
OF its accounts, probably the contin-
gent fund. The commission claims
that $4,000 is absolutely necessary
and In that event $500 might be
forthcoming from the contingent
account when the playground work
is underway.
James M. Glenn, Otto w viii
and John Danner, comprising COM
mittee of three to represent the Ex-
empt Firemen's Association, asked
the aldermen for an. appropriation
of $500 with which to entertain
about 500 visiting delegates at their
convention, to be held in this city
May 15, next The city fathers dis
cussed the subject at length and
questioned the legality OF such a
proposition. Some were in doubt
about their right to make such an
appropriation The subject was re-
ferred to the city attorney for re-
port.
Rules and regulations governing

WESTERN UNION
TRIES A TRICK
Make Might Office Of Police
Recorders Room.

1t appears that the Western Union
Telegraph Company and the New
York Telephone Company, declared
to be consolidated, have made pub
lie telegraph office out OF Recorder
Henry w. Kehoe's court room In the
police department building. They
installed "coin In the slot" tele-
phone there last night, ostensibly for
the benefit of the public who wish
to telephone from city hall or the
police station, but In reality, 1t Is
said, to escape expense OF keeping
their local telegraph Office open day
and night, In accordance with a
movement now on foot in this city
The telephone was put In, accord
ing to the New York Telephone Com
pany and the police, to enable per-
sons to telephone kilograms from
this city to the nearest Western
Union telegraph office in New Bruns-
wick after 5 o'clock nights when the
local telegraph Office Is closed. The
telephone Is not listed, making 1t
impossible for anyone to call the
police court on it and it can only be
used to send messages from.
When Acting Mayor Voorhees,, was
told about the instrument, he de-
clares, the telephone officials did not
tell him when request was made to
install 1t that 1t was to be used chief
~ for sending kilograms after 8
O'Clock nights. No city officials ask
ed to have the phone installed.
neither did the police. officials Of
the telephone company came to the
acting mayor and asked il there was
any objection to putting It in. He
says he was told 1t was to be for the
benefit OF the public for telephone
and telegraph service. He gave his
consent and the instrument was put
In last night.
The efforts OF the Western Union
TO thus escape opening a night once
may prove futile, for it Is under
stood the cours room WIN be- closed
after 8 O'clock nights and tho mech
anism will be useless for the purpose
Tor which it was intended.
