FOUND UNPAID
Widows of District Men Fail
To Obtain Due Amounts,
Letter Says.

A letter read at the monthly
meeting Of the City Fire Fighters
Association last night declared that
widows, orphans and other depend
ents of firemen have been getting
only part of their pension money
during the last three years and that
a total of between S50,0o0 and $780,
600 is due them.
The association voted to interest
itself in getting the full amount OF
back pensions for all benefciarieS
amounting to an average of several
hundred dollars. The pensions were
curtailed three years ago when a
deficit occurred in the fund, and
though a bill to remedy this was
framed two years ago. IL never
passed individual pensions are
graded, and run from 81 to $50 a
month.
Representative Carlos Bee. Of
Texas, spoke to the members. "As
long as 1 can ever be of assistance
my ears are open to pleas for a bet
ter wage for firemen, whom 1 re-
gard as among the lowest-paid
men," he said>in part.
We hope Congress will adjust
salaries to compare favorably with
those of other cities the size of
Washington" said one OF the offi-
cials. In New York a captain gets
s3.7oo a year and in Washington a
captain gets $1,000; a New York pri-
vate gets s2.2s0 and a Washington
private, sl.e6o."
Cart. Edward o'connor presided.

of Congress next month, DR.. Frank

Congress invariably eliminated the
measure from the appropriation

Defeat in Hard Hitting
Contest

The Congressional A c. took a
hard-hitting game from the Gibral-
tar A. C. at Union Park yesterday
by the score of s to 4.
The -GibraItars outhit their oppo-
.nents but lacked the punch to win.
They also lacked the necessary
fielding of winner, making six
miscues. Four of their misplays
sfield allowed bstters to reach first
base safely. and three of them
scored runs. Beamer pitched a good
game for the losers but he was the
victim of poor support. His mates
hit hard at times but failed in the
pinch in several instances. in the
third inning with three on the
paths, resulting from two hits and
a pass, Chamberlain took three
swings for the final out of that
round.
Reds" Hager, playing center field
for the Gibs. smacked out two
doubles and two singles in four
times at the plate. He was closely
followed by Captain Ballinger. who
obtained a double and two singles
in four times at bat
The Congressional pitcher. Dem
ma, turned in a classy exhibition of
box work, striking out nine men,
despite the ten hits made off his
slsnts. He famed batters when a
hit meant one or more runs. his
drop ball turning the trick many
times. Congressionals scored two
runs in the first inning by a base
on balls, a hit. two stolen bases
and an error. The score:
