Of the cut of se.400 over Qne-third of 1t, to be exact $2.500. is sliced from the ap- propriation for the fire department.
 The appropriation recommended for the maintenance of the department Is $17,000 or s1,000 less than a year ago, and $6,500 Is appropriated for new ap- paratus. the same as last year, but which was not expended. If there is another city in the state of Connecti- cut. or in New England. or even the United States, that has an active de- partment composed of eight fully
 equipped fire companies. with pieces of motor apparatus and three horse drawn apparatus. that can maintain the fire department upon an appropriation
 of $11.000, 1t ought to be known. Often
 the claim of the New London depart
