Doan, of the Bell Telephone Co., imbervie'w-ed the coun- cil in reference to a proposition sub- mitted by that Company for the in- stallation of a fire alarm service in the homes of the firemen. Some idea of the strength of the fires may be gained from the fact that for a. distance of between twen- ty and- thirty miles around the fire zone the atmosphere is dense and smoke-laden, resembling a heavy fog. The fira flows hit-her and thith- er under the influence of air cur- rents created by the heat of the fires. Submitted Fire Alarm Proposition Mr. Dean had three schemes for submission to the counollâ€"the ir stallation of a telephone, the placing of an extension bell to ring a signal or box alarm. or the mechanical gong The total cost per ammm for eleven phones was $165, which included in- stallation and maintenance; $88 for the extension scheme and $275 for the mechanical gong. Cotourg had in- stalled the phone and it was tound to work admirably. They would be all on the one circuit so as to en- sure a. common ring in case of fire. This also gave the firemen the use of the phone.
