DUMP FIRE NUISANCE
TO Be THRESHED OUT
Department Heads TO Consider Plan
Making 1t Unnecessary to
Call Out Firemen

An effort to dispose of the dump
fire nuisance will be made tomor-
row when representatives of several
departments will meet at the Office
of Mayor Paonessa at II o'clock to
consider the problem.
Those who have been called in in
clude the chairman and the chief of
the fire department, the chairman
and the superintendent of health.
and the chairman and chief engineer
of the department Of public works.
A proposal made by the fire de-
partment representatives will be
considered. their plan being to
place hose at the disposal of the
ground keepers. making it unneces-
sary for them to call in the fire de-
partment excepting in case Of serious
fire. Objection has been made to
sending out fire companies since it
ties up an entire squad and a truck
which should be available for alarms
to places where property is at risk.
the commissioners argue.

"Today's bulletin should not cause
unnecessary alarm or anxiety. It Is
exactly what one might expect in the
progress OF an illness Of this ma
ture.
Is Painful
''There will be q certain amount
Of pain and consequent restlessness
until the pleurisy subsidies or the
two inflamed surfaces are kept from
rubbing against each other by ma
lures sticking plaster-an exudate
of fibrin causing adhesions and pre-
venting friction.
I'VE may not expect much altera-
ton In present conditions for an
other day or SO. Then We may hope
for more reassuring symptoms and
reports"
Rich and Poor
The bulletin on the palace fence
was an object OF interest throughout
the afternoon. There was q con-
slant steam OF purple past it. with
rich and poor standing side by side
as they read the two short sentences
and exchanged expressions Of hope
for the early recovery of His Ma
jesty. Among those who inspected
the bulletin was one Of the ladtes-in-

The Duke Of York went to the

Late this afternoon there was an
atmosphere of confidence about tn.

feeling that tonight's bulletin would
be Of a more reassuring character
than the last two have been.

the public uncertain whether this
temperature is being exceeded. but it
