It was arranged that the horse-drawn chemical and com bination wagon should compete against a new and improved auto wagon. It was arranged that a run. of several blocks should be made, string 1000 feet of hose, and put out a pile of boxes placed In a vacant lot. The alarm was given, and the time counted between the last stroke of the alarm, and the time the fire was pronounced extinguished was 11 min utes. This record was made by the horses. .
