by sparks from a passing engine on
the Rockland branch of the w. and n.
r. R., caused a serious blaze carly
this afternoon near the yards of the
dupont Powder Company along the

The Water Witch Fire Company
with its present apparatus and the

building badly damaged. The loss will
reach several thousand dollars.
All the powder makers from the

The MEETING TODAY

Because the department has no
money with which to meet its obliga-
tions. the Board of Water Commits
sioners in weekly session today de-
cided to issue certificates of indebted
ness. The subject was first broached
when the department decided that
City Council should pay the semi
annual interest on the $1S5,O0O four
per cent water bonds amounting to
$1,000 Mr. Mcintyre informed the
Board that City Auditor Kurtz had told
him that Council had drawn a check
for the $500 but that he had refused
to sign it because the Council had only
$3.50 in bank to its credit.
President Shaw then remarked that
the Water Department must take care
of its money in order to meet its pay
rolls
He then offered the following
resolution relative to certificates Of
Indebtedness;
Resolved, That this Board author
ICES the issue of certificates of indebt-
edness to an amount not to exceed
$4,000 in liquidation of the most inn
perative Of its bills, and be it further
Resolved, That this Board hereby
agrees to redeem same at the Ma
tional Bank of Wilmington and Bran
dywine from appropriations to be re-
ceived from the the Mayor and City
Council during the next fiscal year.
After adopting the resolution, Mr..
POole's motion, that a certificate be
issued to The Foord- Massey Company
for s1,17S.50, to pay for the new
furniture in the new Office building
OF the company, was adopted.
The board will meet on Saturday of
this week instead of on Monday, be-
cause Chief Engineer Kienle and
Registrar Mclntire will leave on Mon
day for Rochester. New York, to at
tend the convention of the American
Water Works Association. The CON
vention will last until Friday.
No response has yet been received
from the Board of Park Commission
ers TO the offer of the use OF the de-
partments meeting room to the Park
Board as a meeting place.
