Mr. Clark's engine was to be retained in tho service and he should be retained to manage It. Alderman Weis raised the point that the ordinance provided that the chief nominate and the'council confirm the names, and that to refer to tbe fire committee' would be out of or-, der.

Alderman Cuney said this was ont of order, as the ordinance provided.that the chief ohould nominate.

Alderman'Weis then -moved that the list be confirmed as to all the'names except Cross; man. This motion prevailed and the list was cpn- flrmed except as to Crossman. Tbe-name of Crossman was then'submitted to a ballot, resulting in yeas and 3 nays'and his election. Alderman McDonald then asked to be relieved as chairman of the fire committee.
