纽约州洛克波特，消防部门
纽约州洛克波特（Lockport）的消防部门的残废状况在委员们与五个志愿公司解散之后，由于男子与拉迪根（Radigan）之间的行列，迫使布罗克市长向警察局发出电话，以协助消防员发出电话。所有警报。至少有四名警察将在AIL小时间打电话给大火。该部门只有13人，志愿者被解散了，以至于专员没有时间提供付费服务的扩大，首先提议有18个电话，但布法罗的助理墨菲助理墨菲已建议专员改为拥有整个付费部门。他认为呼叫服务将是不切实际的。建议让18名男子每年收到75美元，他们将对所有警报做出回应。委员会一无所获，因此该部门的方式很糟糕。没有资金可以提供更多的付费男子，直到明年才能提供任何资金。The fire budget would have to be nearly doubled to increase the department to 20 or 25 men and the aldermen may refuse to grant this, as they have already taken a stand against the fire commissioners’ whole policy and claim it was formed hastily and without an idea of what the city would do in case of a serious fire. The volunteer firemen have in the meantime decided to bring action against the city to recover the annual $275 allowance per company as the charter provides. The crippled condition of the department was illustrated at midnight last Saturday when a house was gutted by fire. None of the volunteers responded. A half dozen paid men grouped their teams together, left them in charge of a spectator and tried to fight the flames. The situation was so bad that the fire got well under way and is the first fire in some time to get sufficient start to do much damage. Assistant Chiefs Harry Few and Andrew Cameron, both volunteers, were dismissed by the commissioners this week because they were voluuteers. They will fight their dismissal. The aldermen last week voted to reinstate the volunteer companies and the Mayor vetoed their order.
