Except to repeat his statement of last
night that II Deputy Fire Chief Andrew
J. Sullivan submits an application for
retirement he will move that it be grant
ed, Commissioner Siddons today declined
to discuss his action In requesting the
withdrawal from active service Of the
deputy chief.
Chief Sullivan likewise refused to dis
cuss the case, saying that he had decided
not to talk about it at all. He would not
say whether he would apply for permits
sion to retire.
Statement Of Commissioner
The Commissioners statement, which
was given out last night, and which, he
stated today. is all he cares to say about
the matter for the present, is as follows
"All that care to say on the subject
at this time Is that il Mr.. Sullivan shall
submit an application for retirement !
shall move that the same be granted. In
this connection 1 am glad to be able to
say that Mr.. Sullivan's record as a men,
Der Of the fire department for thirty-five
years and up to g. recent date has been
excellent. and for his sake l shall be
glad If he terminates his active connec-
ton with the department, leaving a rec
ord which on the whole has been very
commendab1e."
Commissioner Newman would not dis
cuss the action of his colleague. He
pointed out that. in any event. Sullivan
would be given fair deal, as an appli-
cation for retirement would call for a
hearing before the trial board.

TROOP Of BOY SCOUTS

Fighting their way through smoke and

Troop No. As Of Anacostia today took
an active part In rescuing from what
seemed almost certain death seventeen
aged inmates of the Stoddard Baptist
Home at Garfield Heights and then
saved from destruction about $500 worth
of property.
Flames were discovered about 10
o'clock issuing from window on the Sec
ond floor of the big two-story frame
structure. and Spottswell Nichols, col
ored. an employe Of the institution, tried
to extinguish the fire with bucket OF
water.
Cries of fire attracted the neighbor-
hood. and the troop of Boy Scouts, who
were out on hike" and they immed-
lately rushed to aid in saving the build
ing and inmates. The flames spread
rapidly, and within a few minutes the
entire building was ablaZe. Within the
home we're fifteen women and two men,

of themselves.

lively with neighbors and dashed into
the burning structure to rescue the in
mates. With Scaggs were Frederick
Apple, Harry Stone, Harold Cummings,

Reginald Lyon. Spectators declared that
| If the work of rescue had been delayed
a few minutes fatalities would have re-
suited.
Although an alarm was turned in i'm
| mediately after the discovery of the fire
SO rapidly did the Boy Scouts and neigh.
bors work that all the inmates had been
removed before the arrival of the engines
and chemical companies. No water sup
ply was to be had. and therefore the
firemen had to rely entirely on the chem.
icals. Furniture and other portable ef-
| fects were saved.
| The building was totally destroyed,

Real Test for Huerta Due.

Prolongation of the revolution in
Mexico is believed by officials here to de-
pend largely upon the measure of sue
cess attained by Gen. Huerta In the ex-
ecution of his scheme for the enforced
circulation of state bank notes. They
think the real test of the popular sup
port of the Huerta government Will be
found in the manner in which the Mexi-
can business interests receive this latest
move.

hood Of Ojinaga, Brig. Gen. Bliss, COM
manding the American border forces, is

the characterization given by Secretary

port that the request for the resgna-
ton of o. P. Austin as assistant chief of

merce marked the beginning of a cut
ting OF Of the official heads of men in

'The article has no substantial basis, -
said statement issued by the Secre-

fevered Imagination. The resignation of
o. P. Austin was requested November
10. 1913, to take effect, three months
after its date It was thus arranged out
of courtesy to him.
Not of Political Significance.
1.-THE matter is without any political
significance whatever. If it is part of any
general plan I have never heard of it. 1
know of no intention. plan or purpose
such as that mentioned in the article"
Other officials of the department de-
clared that the request for Mr.. Austin 8
resignation was a part of the scheme of
reorganization mapped out by Secretary
Redfield in his annual report. Whether
Mr.. Austin will be given another position
in the Office has not been determined, it
