NO DECISIN ON NEW: FRE ENGINE Board and Council Gommittee Will See Machines in Action The joint committee composed of members of the fire board and three members of the common council will investigate the qualifications of the 760 gallon pumpers in this atate, it was decided at the meeting last night after a lengthy discussion, ‘Tomorrow afternoon the commit- tee will go to South Manchester to see the Ahrens-ox machine, and on Monday of next week they will journey to New Haven and to Wat- erbury to see the Seagraves and the American LaFrance respectively, In action, The clerk, J. J. Keough, asent letters and telegram some time ago to the concerns whose machines the ¢ommittee had under consideration, In reply to the request that ma- chines be aent to New Britain for a public demonstration, all but two replled that this would be impos- sible, hence the meeting last night to map a further course of action. Commisgioner George Gans moved, after the letters had been read, that the committee dispense with try- ing to have a public demonstration in this city and his motion was adopted. Gans Moves to Buy Mr. Gans sald that it was use- leas to dally along any longer. He said that the members of the com- mon council committee had prob- ably had enough time to investigate the types of apparatus and a de- clsion should be made. It would be folly to recommend the Seagraves, he sald, sincé the council is op- posed to that machine, He was of the opinion that the mayor was openly opposed to the Maxim. He sald he would not. recommend the Ahrens-Fox because it is so differ- ent from anything else ever used in this city, He moved that the joint committee recommend to ‘(he com- mon council that an American Ta- France pumper be purchased. The bids of the manufacturers were then askqd. The following quotations were read by the clerk: American LaFrance, $14,185; Sea graves, $14,256.30; Ahrens-Fox, §14, 385; Stutz, $13,900; Maxim, $12,900. Alderman Willlam H. Judd sald that the members of the council committee should be given a chance to see the other makes of cars in ac- tion. The chairman asked {f the joint committee was convinced that the Ahrens-Fox was rot the ‘mas chine for this city. The members scemed to desire further investiga- tlon. - Here Commissioner Gans’ motiof was withdrawn and a vote was tak- | en at the suggestion of Alderman Judd, as to the advisability of see- ing more machines. He personally favored furtfier investigation, he sald, Keevers Breaks Tie Upon taking the vote it was found that three favored investigation and three were opposed to such a meas- ure, Chairman Keevers settled the question by voting for an.investiga- tlon, It was brought out that only three pieces of apparatus have been viewed in action. Commissioner Walter Blalr moved that the invitation of the Stutz man- ufacturers to view pieces of appara- tus in action in Lawrence, Mass., be accepted. Councilman Charles Bradley expressed himself as being opposed to this, since the Stutz is a comparatively new machine, 1t developed in the course of the disoussion that Chiet Willlam Noble favors the American LaFrance, but it also was claimed that the ma- chines are not giving good service. Rough treatment, due to the fact that green drivers are broken in on these pleecs of apparatus, may be the reason for the fact that they are not giving the proper service, said Commissioner Gans. The question of the Ahrens-Fox was again brought up and Alderman Judd asked if it is trye that -the Afirens-Fox is #0 compllcated that the ordinary fireman cannot run it. The reply by Commissioner Gans ‘was that whils in New York city, & short time. ago, one of the deputy “The question' waw then. ralsed, “Why I8 the council opposed to the Heagrives?" The answer came back, “Be. caus “For reasons.” . Commissioner Gans then moved that trips he made to South Man. chester, New Haven and Waterbury, and It was later added to the mo- tion that representatives of the companies be requested to he pres- ent at the demonstrations. Accompanied by the chief ang master mechanie the members of the joint committes will leave city hall tomorrow afternoon at 1 o'clock for South Manchester and Monday Haven and Waterbury, ’ Fire Board In Session IPollowing the adjournment of the meeting of the fire board was held The monthly reports were presented and accepted, together with reports of sickness and the roport of a hay- Brick Co., in Berlin, also in Septem ber. It was voted that the town of Berlin be billed for $150 for services rendered, f Only one reply to the board's ad- vertisement for bids for new tires was recelved, This was from the | Ball Tire Co., of thls clty, with a | bid of $208.60, for four new Dayton |tires, including an allowance on | three old tireg turned In by the de. | partment. A report from the medical exam- liner to the cffect that John P. Kran- | 7it of 84 Lawlor street had proved | physically fit for a position on the substitute force, was recelved and Gommissioner Blair moved that he !be appolnted, A stop was put to this motlon by | the protest of several members, | among them the chairman, who said | they wanted to see what kind of {men were being appointed. Tt was | |moved and voted that in the future | all candidates for positions on the | substitute force appear before the {board for an examination. ! It was voted to ercct a traffic bell | at the corner of West Main and Lin- {coln streets, to warn the policeman |on duty there when therenis a fire, | The discussion again got around | to the investigation of the various | pumpers and Commissioner Gans | made the remark that the commit- | tee should wait a few years until cnough money was secured to pur- chase three machines, thus satisfy- ing everybody. This got a laugh from the other commissianers pres- ent, WINS ANOTHER PRIZE New Haven, Oct. 9.—Elbert J, tichmond, of Waterbury, architect, who won the Fontainebleau follow- ship of the New Haven architectural | club; Inc., last spring, has just re- | turned from the summer course un- der ‘the award, at the school in Trance.

The opinion was expressed that if other towns could run one of the machines, New Britaln could algo, Judd And Keevers Spar Upon Alderman Judd's statement that all but the Ahrens-Fox and the American LaFrance had been elim- inated, Chairman Keevers swung in- to action, “Have you eliminated graves?” he asked. don't think it has a chancs” replied the alderman, “Don't you think, that in justiee to the members of the fire board, you should view the Seagraves in action and see just why we recom. mend {t?" shot back the chairman. % Says His Prescription H_as Powerful Influence % Rheumatism Mr. James H.
