"Our company. which is a subscriber
to Fireman's lleraid, would be glad to
have your opinion (which we know is
of great value, as gained from exper-
ience in treating ol the broad and
complex problems constantly arising
in fire circles). on the condition 0‘!
uflnirs as stated in the following:
"Our city {population Iiliout 7,000;
manuluciurlng; incrense in population
last ten years 23 per cent.) is pructic-
ully bisected by a huge fill or bank at
sand. carrying railroad tracks.
Through this bank there are two
street openings with bridges, one 98
lost wide which runs through the
heart of the center of the'city. There
are on this opening two sets of trol-
ley tracks, one passing through diag-
onuily. the other describing it curve
right under one side of the bridge in
going lrom one street which runs at
right angles to the other. The other
street opening through this till is about
1.000 feet south 0! the first and is also
occupied with trolley trucks.
“These two openings in the bunk
are the only means of getting from
one side of Hip city to the ether in
the some where the greatest tire but~
I urd is situated. The structures in this
zone consist chiefly of three and {our-
story brick mercantile buildings. old

"The lire department, established in
1874, has at present nihook mid ladder
company, the truck being equipped
with two lib-gallon chemical tanks: a
hose company with u anchored hitch
hose wagon and n two-horse hitch com-
bination chemical and hose wagon.
The book and luddcr company is lo-
cated on the cost side of the. railroad
trucks and the hose company on the
west side. .
‘ A bond issue has been voted upon
favorably by the people and granted
by the last Legislature of $100,000, of
which $30,000 was intended for a new
tire house for the truck company, now
on lenscd land. in order to have mat.
tors agreeable for carrying out the
other portion of the bond issue for
public purposes, a movement by our
city onlclnls is on foot to remodel and
enlarge the'present hose house (on

plum the two companies in it.
“Does your experience suggest or
advise concentrating all your nppnrn-
tus in One house under the circum-
stances herein roughly described?"
The Answer.
it is hard to realize that city oili-
cinls should be so short—sighted as to
consider such a plan. The city in
question has increased 23 per cent. in
population in the past ten years. and
it is only a question
even better protection than that now'
furnished will have to be provided. it
is a recognized fact that only through
quick response, thus permitting tires
to be caught in the incipient stage.
can serious tires in mercantile bulld-
lugs be prevented. in studying con
ditions in other cities it can readily
bo‘seen that this quickness of response
hue been recognized by fire chiefs
throughout the country. Almost with-
out exception. one or more companies
are located in the mercantile district
and in all cases the route over which
apparatus must respond is closely con-
sldered. Too often, if opporotus bus
to puss. trolley cars at dangerous
crossings. there is a collision. with
consequent injury to men and appara-
tus snddolny in response to alarm.
A ladder truck is at little use out-
side or the mercantile district. but in
the mercantilodlstrict it isolten the
means oi saving life. which is one of
its prime duties, and is of great value,
owing to the equipment it carries. in
the opening up 0! buildings at night.
No part of a mercantile district can
be considered as properly protected if
more than onehait to three-quarters
of a mile from some lire apparatus.
lunamuch as there is no hose company
located in the mercantile district of
the city in question, the use of the
chemical tanks on the ladder truck
has undoubtedly prevented many sero
ions tires. it should not be a question
or moving the ladder company to the
present location or the hose company.
but rather one of transferring or en‘-
tabltsh‘ing a. hose company in s }oca‘-
tiou within the mercantile district
east at the railroad. and or construct-
in}; a station large enough to house
