 again during Thursday evening to such an extent that conference of I city officials, including Mayor A. w. l Marcy and two members of the fire | committee of the common council Alderman -at-large4 John B. Byrne Alderman Charles E. Demand
 Chief Engineer Courtland D.. Arnold
 of the fire. department was called on
 Friday afternoon to consider the sit-
 uation and take steps ii definitely eliminate the sources of the trouble and the danger to the city that arises from it. Sn The result of the conferencn.. with the action of which Alderman Otis
 Fox, another member of the fire con- ] mittee of the common council and
 who is Ill at his home here, is in full , accord, was the reaching of an agree ment to post at the central fire sta- } tion an order, which Is given here- ] with, and which sets forth who here-
 after will have right to have access , to the station.
 5 The crisis in the fire department s } affairs was precipitated Thursday ev- ening when members who are known 3 as regulars of Hose No. arrived f at the fire station to- hold a meet 3 ing. They found that members who r recently were transferred from the
 regular list to the associate list, of / members. in accord with plans for the
 reorga nization of the department, were already in session there and not : inclined to. retire toAnake way for the } } meeting of the newly named regular 2 members.
 Alderman Byrne was called over the telephone at his home. informed of the situation at the station and asked to come down and adjust the : difficulty. The task assigned to Mir
 Byrne was not a pleasant one, nor
 one that he relished. but, as chair
 man of the fire committee of the q council, he did go down and did his n best to straighten out what easily j. might have developed into a real hot
 session.
 MT. Byrne after asking the asso.
 ciate members who were holding q 4 meeting to retire and make way fol ' G the regulars and finding that the5 . were unwilling to do 50, tclaimins !. ,. they were well within their rights il r proceeding with their meeting, gay,
 them ten minutes to give up th /. room, in the meantime the regular ;ss waited downstairs. The upshot oi !a the affair was that the associat n members continued with their meet q ing after the conference to ous ~ them brought no results that coui
 only have been achieved by use 0 # force.
