SALARY NEEDLESS,
FIRE Chief SAYS
South Orange Official Con-
dennis Alleged Waste Of
Money.

Announcing today that the losses
resulting from fire in South Orange
during 1912 totaled but $500. Patrick
McCahery, chief of the village fire
department for the last three years,
declared that the expenditure Of
81. $50 as salary for a fire chief in the
village is an unnecessary waste of
money.
The department with a volunteer
head has been efficient, and the small
loss, despite the fact that there were
fifteen fires. is proof that a salaried
chief is not necessary, the acting
head of the department contends.
Since McCahery has led the village
fire-flghters, he points out, the loss by
fire has been exceedingly low. where
as during the year preceding his APP
pointment the damage amounted to
more than $4,000
The head of the department also
contends that it is a waste of money
for the Village Board of Trustees to
appropriate money, as they have al
ready done, for the purpose of obtain
ing advice from an out-of-town ex-
pert on f1re-fighting.
In the event of civil service ex-
animation being held for the office Of
chief, Mr.. McCahery declares that
only men who have served from ten
to fifteen years as firemen should be
allowed to undergo the tests. Ac-
cording to the Civil Service Commits
sion an examination of applicants for
the Office will be held January 81,
and any resident of the village be-
tween the ages of q and 45 years is
eligible to compete.

.F|REMEN'S SALARY
RAISES VETOED
Mayor Gregory Scores Fire
Board and Says Chiefs
Are Not Deserving.

The resolution passed by the East
Orange Fire Board raising the sal
aries of Chief William L. Markwitl1
and Assistant Chief John Flynn and
the captains and lieutenants, and
which was not announced, was vetoed
today by Mayor Gregory. He gave
pointed reasons for declining to at
taeh his signature to the resolution.
Last year 1 approved of a resolu-
ton fixing maximum schedule for
salaries for members of the depart
ment," stated the executive. This
included the maximum for the chief
and assistant chief. The resolution
now before me provides that the as
sistant chief shall receive the maxi
mum salary and the chief an in
crease.
I'm view of the fact that, so far
as l have been advised. no additional
work or responsibility has been
placed upon the chief or the assist
ant chief while it would appear on
the contrary that the department has
not been run as satisfactorily as it
might be, judging from hes general
shake-up which was given it during
the last month through the shifting
of men, l believe that the increase
to the chief and his assistant is not
justified, and ] must, therefore. de-
cline to approve the resolution so far
as it affects these two Increases
Mayor Gregory said today he is not
opposed to the captains and lieu
tenants receiving the increases de-
cided upon by the board, but will not
approve of Chief Markwith and AS
s.stant Chief Flynn receiving the in
creases AS all were included in one
resolution, it was necessary for him
to disapprove of the entire resolution,
he said. He will sign a resolution
giving the following men increases:
Captains James Finneran, James
ELAN, George L. Mitchell. Michael
| link, Samuel Cohen, w. j. Smalley
and Charles mckinley, from s1,240 to
81, 800 per year; Lieutenants John
Cannon. Edward Purdue. Edward
link, jr., Frank Inderweis, Peter
Dech, William C. Purdue and Edward
Mckinley, from $1,000 to 81, 100 a year;
Second Assistant Electrician Harry
Dewstoe, from $940 to S1,050 year.
The resolution was unanimously
passed by Commissioners Baldwin,
Reeve, and Weiters. Mr.. Reeve, how
ever, was not reappointed to Office by
Mayor Gregory, and the confirmation
of his successor, Henry Grobert, will
not be passed upon by the CITY Coun-
Gil for confirmation or rejection until
the meeting of the Council week
from Monday night. The maximum
salary for Chief Matthews is $1,000 a
year. He now receives $500.

STRIKING DRIVER HELD
AFTER ROW IN BELLEVILLE

William Williams. of Is Lemon
street. this city, was placed under
s400 bonds by Police Recorder J..
Harry Ashworth in the Belleville Po-
lice Court last night, to await the
action of the grand jury. Williams
was arrested on a charge of ma
licious mischief, preferred by j. H.
Jaeger. a truckman, of this city, who
claimed Williams cut the harness on
a horse attached to a truck. David
Hardman, one of. Jaeger's drivers,
preferred a charge of assault and
battery against the prisoner.
The arrest is the outcome of a
strike on the part of the union driv-
ers employed by the truckman. The
alleged offense took place in Rutgers
street, Belleville.

ORANGE WATER
PRESSURE Low.
Great Handicap TO Fire-Fight-
ers, Says Chief in Az
nuaI Report

That a change in the water-line in
Kenilworth place. Orange. is neces-
sary, was stated by Chief William H.
Matthews, of the Orange fire depart
ment, in his annual report to the
Fire Board last night. He said that
the pressure at this point was re-
duced to forty-five pounds at a re-
cent fire when two lines of hose were
used.
He also asked that the city discon-
tinue using a whistle when alarms
are sent in. He advised that the fire
wires along the Lackawanna rail-
road be changed, as they are too near
the new electric wires of the rail-
road. and on a wet day a person
sending in an alarm from this cir
cult was likely to get a shock. Some
of the firemen have received shocks
when testing this circuit, as there is
a voltage of $500 on the railroad
wires. which is partly transmitted to
the fire wires.
The best that Chief Matthews would
say for the city system, which has
been in existence for twenty-five
years. was that 1t was in fair con-
dition." He asked that new boxes
be added and an extra man sent to
each company as the force is weak
ened when men have their days off
or are away from duty because of
illness.
During 1912 there were 10 fires. with
a loss of $1O.S65. on which had been
placed insurance amounting to
$210. 600 There is no ordinance which
properly regulates the storage of
gasoline and other infiamable ma
terial. the chief reported, and he ask
ed that the Common Council adopt
measure because there is danger to
life and property under the present
conditions.

STRICT RULES FOR
ORANGE FIREMEN
Commissioners, After Filming
One, State That More Dis
cipIine Will Be Required.

After q member of the Orange hre
department had been brought before
she Fire Board of that city last night
on charge of refusing to sweep up
the dormitory in the Valley engine
house. President Plummer announced
that stricter discipline for the men
would result. He claimed that the
fireman. George Cuddy. of Chemical
Engine No. 1, was under the intiu-
enee Of LIQUOR while answering to the
charge last night.
Cuddy was fined ten days pay, on
motion of Commissioner Chalmers
and was told if any other charge was
preferred against him he would be
dismissed from the department with
out trial. 1t was said 1t was the
third time he had been tried by the
board.
The question also came up whether
captains had the authority 10 sus-
pend s member when he violated a
rule. and It was the subject of con-
siderable discussion. and Captain
Michael Mccarthy, who made the
complaint, was told he had the power
TO suspend. Later, however, he was
Informed the rules would not allow
for 1t, and the suspending power was
aft with Chief William III. Matthews.
Commissioner Mcguire said it was
a well-known fact that all the cap
tains did not seem to have equal pow
efs, and this brought up the question
Of suspending men guilty of viola
tons pending a trial. Captain Nc
Carthy said he had made a verbal
complaint to Assistant Chief Michael
Savage against Cuddy in May of last
YEAR. but he had not been tried by
The board. 1t was explained that
Savage had made a report to Chief
Matthews, and the chiefs explana-
ton to the board that he had
smoothed the matter out was salts
factory.
During the talk it was claimed
Fireman Cuddy had been before the
board too often. Commissioner Chal-
mers said he had proven himself to
be a good fireman, but Commissioners
Roehre declared his actions did not
prove the claim. Mr.. Chalmers then
moved to have him dismissed. stat
ing. however. that this ought not be
done. His motion was not seconded.
and It was agreed to give him another
chance.
IF the men of this department do
not give proper respect to their SUI
perior officers then we viii clean out
the whole department and secure a
new personnel declared President
Plummer, while insisting that Cap
tain Mccarthy report promptly any
further violations in his company.
1.-THE men are not going to run this
department. That is the work of the
commissioners. They will be getting
to think after a while that they can
do as they please"
1t developed that Captain McCar-
thy had given the order to Fireman
Cnddy to sweep up in the sleeping
quarters in the morning. He only
used the broom in five feet of space,
and Mccarthy waited until 3 O'Clock
in the afternoon for him to complete
the task. HE went to sleep instead"
said Mccarthy, $50 | went up and
swept the room myself and then
made the charge"
