200 FIRE ALARMS IN 1874
Largest Number in History of
the City for Single Year.
LOSS However, Was Only $4,000. a
Comparatively Small Amount-De-
pnrtment Cost S545 More Than
Appropriation Of S2s,OOO.

The report Of Carl d. Stockwell, chief
or the fire department, was completed
Mondas for publication in the annual
city report. The contents disclose the
fact that the department responded to the
largest number Of alarms In the history
OF the city for a single year, the total
number being 2O3.
OF the 2o8 alarms 81 were bell alarms and
l42 still alarms. There were also three
calls from out of town which we're re-
sponded to; three to Winooski, two to
South Burlington. one to Vergennes, one
to Malletts Bay and one to Essex juno
ton.
The total loss by fires which the depart
ment attended was s19,O1265, represented
by insurance paid. The sum of 1927. 95
was also pfid in insurance for loss by fire
which the department did not attend
The total value of buildings in which
fire occurred was 1929, los The total value
of personal property involved was 1884,
5s95s.
The total cost of running the depart
ment was s2s, $500, divided as follows:
Regular mems pay (5s weeks). 800 1897
Monthly statements........ ........ 1902 AZ
Call mems pay....... ............. 9il.O
sc, 9.ss
Credit for sale Of two horses and
old junk..... ........... ....... H4Ol
scs.55.6s
With the credit taken out as above
noted the net cost Of running the depart
ment was s2s,645.6s. The appropriation
was es& 900, which therefore leaves an
overdraft Of S5456s.
Chief Stockwell recommends in his re-
port that the chiefs automobile be equip
ped with a 30-galon chemical tank, a
hose basket 200 feet OF chemical hose.
axes, bar and door opener. This would
give the department another piece of
motor driven apparatus at small cost and

The chief also recommends he location Of
two turret pipes at the electric light plant
on the lake front. This is something
which should be considered Immediately
as the city has hundreds Of thousands of
dollars invested in its electric light plant
and water and filtration plant, which
would all be in danger should there be a
large fire in that portion of the lumber
yard.
Five new alarm boxes are recommend
ed for different locations.
The report calls attention to the Hall &
