written eIplication to City Council
last night for permission TO go to At

vention ~ the international Associa
tion OF Fire Engineers which viii be

the Council ordered that the two as
sstant fire chiefs be notified of Chief

the other members that this commit
tee and Fire Chief Lutz have had sever
al conferences relative to plans for fire
prevention day which win be observed
on October 10 but that nothing def
mite had yet been worked out. He ex-
planned however that the committee

Sewer Department il was stated that

and UnIcr streets and that similar
lights win be located at Seventh and
Van Buren, streats and Third and JET
ferson streets. Council last week asked
the board TO have these lights installed
at their earliest convenience.
Mr.. Abrahams advised the other
members that he has been in confer
cnce with the city solicitor relative
TO the complication of an ordinance de-
signed to eliminate the smoke nuis-
ance in this city. This was done as
result Of the many complaints that
have been received from residents

Fort Too Near New York
to Afford Real Pro-
lection

New York, Dec. l2.-Long range
guns have robbed historic Fort Ham
ilton, at the Narrows, of its value al
one Of the main line Notifications Of
New York harbor and henceforth il
win hold a secondary position as an
infantry post.
Military experts have decided that
the fort is too close to the city to AT.
ford real protection.
The Importance formerly attached
to Fort Hamilton and its companion
Fort Wadsworth, as guardians Of the
harbor, has been transferred to Forts
Hancock and Tilden, far out at the en-
trance to Ambrose channel.
1t was from the spot on which Fort
Hamilton was built that the first shots
were fired BY an outpost of Colonial
troops against the British when they
forced landing here. The fortifica-
tion was built after the battle of Long
Island in I776.
