Captain Whltcomb says boxes 62 and 146 were turned in and neither of these are within the district of the flreboat Box V2 is located at Fourth and Hoyt streets and box 146 on Fifth street so the boat had - no reason to strike out except upon special instruction from tho chief in charge of the flre-flghtlng forces.

"We could See the fire plainly," said the firemen on the boat this morning when asked why they had not partici pated in the excitement, "but had no rignt tO'go tnere oecause or naving no Instructions to do so. We would have responded to the alarm, had It been turned In from box 16 at First and Flanders streets, but had no business to answer an alarm turned In on Fourth street. "We could undoubtedly have done a great deal of arood because we fought the Chamber of Commerce fire with success and it was several hundred feet farther from the, river than the fire this morning. But we had no In structions and so could not. leave our dock." Captain Whltcomb denies that a raft of logs had been moored In front of the flreboat and thus obstructed exit from her wharf, a rumor to that effect having been set afloat- when it was seen that the flreboat was-not going to respond to the alarm.
