This engine was not only the flrst at several fires, but in seme mysterious manner was frequently on Its way before the alarm struck. This reached a climax on the occatlon of a small fire in a dwelling, which the fire company attended with ippf* Bed bell. In response to a telephone message, and no fire alarm was polled. On their return, the engine was driven by the bouse of a rival company with bell ringing, and when the men rushed out with inquiries they were told that the fire bad lieeu extinguished. After this occurrence, the chief of the fire department gave orders that companies should not respond to a fire alarm received over a telephone, but the Insurance agents of the city sp pealeil to the city council, woo oraerea that r.t!
