ne can be hitched up again. The district has not been unprotected, however, be- cause of the motor apparatus from down. town, which frequently can get to box to answer a call in the Falls district be- fore the horse-draKn apparatus can reach the box.
 As to the equipment at the Falls sta
 ton, the commissioners said that the harness is old. though good care has been taken of it, the exercise wagon, which has necessarily been kept out of doors, is about ready to fall down, the combina- ton chemical and hose wagon, which was built in 1905, is pretty, much dilapidated.
 As for the fire statioR, this was never intended as a place where horses would be housed. It was built in 1S66-67 for volunteer station, and in 1908, when the horse-drawn apparatus was placed there, it was primarily for the protection of the Falls mill. Now the mill looks out for its own fire protection and the devel- opment of the residence building in this section of the city has. left the Falls sta- tion on the wrong side of the district. The center of the district is now at the upper end of Washington street For a dozen years there have been recommendations made by different fire commissioners, but they have spent as little money as possi- ble on the building, realizing it was LOOlioil lO U lO lSUelA s4llI I1OueTHlZ0 lff6
 building. It has always been impossible to make sanitary conditions for the men sleeping there in the same building with
 horses. Since the Central Vermont rail- road began running their heavy mogul engines the men have felt that some time they might be shaken off their founda- tions on to the railroad track,
 The district, the commissioners further pointed out has very few fires and what there are have been small ones. The
 Falls company has ot answered 15 calls
 a year for fires in its own district Motor apparatus from the downtown stations can give the people of that section just as much protection as they have had in the past few years even with the station there. If the people have fires, said Chief l Stanton, let them step to box and pull
 in an alarm and the downtown companies 1 can take care of them.
 l Savings that will be made from closing the Falls station include 15 tons of coal l this winter, $50 a month for the upkeer of the horses, the expense of a telephone l and other incidentals

MINE HEADS IN
PLEA FOR CARS
Linton Operator Here to Ask
for Aid From State.

William T. Southard, owner Of a wagon
mine at Linton and repsenting ten other
wagon mine owners Of the same district,
called at the Office of the special Food
and Fuel Commission at the Statehouse
today to learn what action could be taken
by the small, operators to be able to Sc
cure cars for shipment OF their product
lie pointed out that the Interstate
Commerce Commission has issued orders
TO railroads forbidding them to issue.
cars Of the open-top style, to wagon
mines.
Owners Of these mines claim that they
can not get enough cars OF any style
in which to ship their product, and that
now while the large mines are idle most
OF the time, there have been days when
as many as thirty and forty cars have
stood empty on sidings at the large
mines at Linton, Mr.. Southland said.
The small operators claim that the
treatment accorded them Is unjust, for
IL they could be receive cars for their
coal they would not at any time hold a
car to exceed twenty four hours, be
said
The large operators claim wagon mine
operators are the ones responsible for
holding cars, but the facts are, they re-
ceive no cars to hold, according to Mr..
Southland.
Representatives of wagon mine opera
tors, with attorneys, have gone to Wash
ington and are making an effort to have
the Interstate Commerce Commission
change the order which now prevents
them from receiving their quota OF cars
as needed.
