FIREMAN CAUGHT
SOUNDING ALARM
Three Members of Carlisle
Company Arrested For
Sending in False Alarms

Carlisle, Pa, Feb. 20.-How rivalry
between firemen of the local depart
ment was responsible for a series of
raise alarms which caused much
confusion here, injury to fremen
ana damage to apparatus, was dis
closed to-day when formal indict-
ments were prepared by District At
torney Lloyd against George Sny-
der, foreman, Esker Sharpe and Syl-
van Clay, members of the Friend
ship Company.
The three men presented signed
confession of their part in
the alarms and implicated others.
The rivalry between the four en-
sine companies as to which shall get
first to a blaze is keen and a num-
Der of Friendship men, tired of the
Jokes and sneers of other companies
as to their late arrivals evolved the
scheme to be first on the scene.
The arrests came after an alarm
Saturday, when a man, later iden-
tined as Clay, was seen sending in
the alarm and he was arrested, con-
fessed and implicated Sharpe and
Snyder. The original alarms first
sent in were fro ma section to throw
suspicion on another company. The
alarms have aroused citizens and the

ing and ordered the cases pushed
to the limit.
According to the statements, the
engine was ready and turning over
ready to respond at the first tap of
the alarm, while time was chosen
when it was believed that the others
would not be ready. There has been
some agitation to move the COM
pany, which is without a regular
driver, to another section and this
was also partly responsible for the
act.
The alarms were sent in in bad
weather and three firemen, including
Fire Chief Brindle, were slightly
injured, one engine damaged and
some serious accidents narrowly pre-
vented
