HACKMAN, Phone Red 1381 Cor. Adams Avenue and Greenwood 4 H(" CCMTU'WV" ALARM NOT SATISFACTORY The fire alarm is not satisfactory. The hammer does not strike the bell with sufficient force or else it does not strike it at the right place. At any rate, one has to be within a block of the tower to hear the bell at all when it is ringing and even then the bell does not have the tone it should have. Contracts Goodnough has experimented with it for several days by raising and lowering the apparatus but if there is any paticnlar position that the hammer must be placed in, it has not yet been found. Chief Jones is hurrying the work of redistricting the city into suitable precincts, so that when the alarm system is completed, he will be ready to publish his code. A GOOD THING. J. W.
