RON DOORS CAUSE TALK
KIRK COMMITTER WONDERS
WHY THEY WERE BOUGITt.
Invention or ex-Chief HoUlen Is Sub-j"-t
of Much Discussion and
Inquisition.
Six iron doors to fire alarm boxes, a
specially patented article, invented bv
1-ee ltolden. formerly a battalion chief
in the Fire Department, furnished a
sufficient supply of material for an
hour's discussion by members of the fire
committee of the Hxecutive Board yes
terday afternoon. Other things were
tinder consideration, hut this particular
item seemed to worry the committee
men. No report was formulated or
motion made at the conclusion of the
meeting-. However.- the action of the
former tire committee in purchasing- the
doors was apparently looked upon as a
piece of official extravagance worthy of
rebuke, as the doors have never been
tised.
Isaac Swett acted as Inquisitor, and
Fire Chief Campbell. Battalion Chief
Younn and Klectriclan bavarian were
present to furnish answers. A broken
cistern at Twelfth and Washington
streets; a . broken wheel of a chemical
wajron in the station-house at Second
and Oak streets, and the doors already
mentioned, were a few of several items
about which the committee wished in
formation. The cistern and the cart
wheel were In Chief Young's district,
and he tried to answer the questions
put to him about those matters. Con
cerning the doors. Electrician Savarian
and Chief Campbell gave some informa
tion. TTmt the door patented bv Mr. Holden
is a good one. but that it Is not needed
here at all. seemed to be the burden of
the testimony of the Are officials. It
was 18 months ago thev were rur
chased, and not one has ever been
placed on a box. It is a device which
can.be opened without a key. and Chief
Campbell thinks it a good invention.'
Responsibility for buying these was put
upon Marcus G. Fleischner, L. T. Peery
and D. A. Pattullo. comprising the for
mer committee, all of whom resigned
because of friction with Mayor Lane
some months ago.
As to the cistern. Battalion Chief
Young assured the committee he did all
in his power to repair it, and failed;
Chief Campbell seemed to ' think It of
but little Importance, as he said the
hydrant at that point is always ready
for use. Chief Young said he heard
about the broken wheel on the chemical
cart and ordered A. G. Long, from
whom the city bought the piece of ap
paratus, to have It repaired. He was
criticised for doing so without the au
thority ot the committee, but shielded
himself behind Chief Campbell, ho
whom Chief Young said he reported.

and celebrated Chicago preacher, Dr.
Frank G. Smith, of the Warren-Avenue
Congregational Church, will deliver his
lecture, entitled, "Our Nation;, Her Mis-,
slon. Her Hopes, Her Perils." This lec

furnish special service to Gladstone
Park, the fare being 25 cents, rour.1

tures as well, will be larger than ever
