Statement of William Leary to Fire Commissioner Sturgis. There is no danger of an im- mediate shortage in the Fire Department, especially if we can get the authorization asked of the Board of Aldermen to buy 509 tons for Manhattan and the Bronx and 500 tons for Brooklyn and Queens. To-day we began transferring coal from hook and ladder houses to engine houses, where there is a greater demand for it. We have plenty of cannel coal, which is used at fires. As to anthracite, which is used to warm the houses and to keep steam up in the engines, we figure that we have plenty to last until Jan. J. RIOTERS SHOOT WOMEN IN PANIC DOWN POLICE.

Statement of Deputy Com- missioner Robert Van Ider- stine, of Brooklyn. We have only a few days supply of coal in the stations, but we have thirteen hundred tons of coal on cars and boats in Long Island City. If the Long Island Railroad gives us any sort of co-operation we should have enough to keep us run- ning along nicely, We use about {50 tons a day. Without the coal in Long Island City we should have to shut down ina few days and the city of Brook- lyn would be without water. Chief Engineer Hill, who has charge of the water supply in the other borough than Brooklyn, said: We have on hand about 1,200 tons, enow to last us three weeks even it we can’t get any more. es & CONSOLIDATED GAS Statement by the Secretary of the Company. | the party We haven’t all the coal we FINED FOR SPEEDING AUTO. |Louls M.
