After Much Discussion, Coun
cil at Special Meeting Yes
terday Afternoon, Passed
McDonald Resolution
After spending hours of heated dis
cussion at two meetings on the mat
ter, city council at a special meeting
late yesterday afternoon by a vote of
i> to fi decided to purchase the equip
ment for the new fire station on The
Hill, Company No. 1 rom the Sca
giavi Klre Engine Company, rather
than from the American-i-aKrance
Fire Engine Company, although the
I lire committee, wr.ich had been em
powered with the authority of rec
ommending to council what type of
machine to buy, had favored, by ma
jority, the purchasing of the Ameri
can-LttKrance.
It will be recalled that Monday af
ternoon at the regular monthly meet
ing of council it was decided to have
each of the two companies send a
machine to Augusta to undergo a
tesi In the. eyes of experts trorn the
National Hoard of Fire Underwriters-
The 1-aErance people agreed, but the
representative of the Seagrave stat
ed that he would have to consult
with his headquarters before he could
accept Buch a proposition. A motion
was passed to give him time to corn
i municale with his headquarters.
McDonald Resolution.
Yesterday alternoon at the special
meeting of council, Councilman J.
W .McDonald offered a resolution
authorizing tne clerk of council to
contract with the Seagrave factory
tor the two SO-horse. ower fire apjgt
ratus, the terms of the contract be
ing the samo practically as orig nal
ly offered.
The following was the vote: "Yeas'
—Vaughan, lioyce, Barnes, Kent, Mc-
Donald, Smith, Harrison, Woodward
and Martin—ft; “Nays"—lrvin, Allen.
Haworth. Pilcher, Moore and Mayor
Hayne.
Council thus rerinded Its action of
Monday to have the two comuanies
send engines here for trial tefTTs. It
whs argued In hIH resolution that It
was unreasonable to require the com
panies to send machines here, for
ihey would have to build outright lire
i iigines according to Augusta's Bpect
flcatlons and the company losing the
contract would not only lose the con
tract but would he at a loss to the
extent of whatever the inacnine cost.
He said that the Seagrave and also
the LaFrance had stood an official
test in New York, report on which
was read, In part, before council
Monday afternoon. :
Difference In Guarantee.
When council voted on the Mc-
Donald resolution to buy the Sea
grave apparatus, every member of
council stood on the matter as he
oilglnally did except Councilman
Martin, who explained that what at
tracted him to the LaFrance machine
was the live-year guarantee over the
[ Seagrave's two-year guarantee, but
he nau been shown since that the
I.a France guarantee was conditioned
on proper handling," where the Sea
grave's was not Councilmen Allen
and Pilcher, who voted against buy
ing the Seagrave machine, staled
that all things being equal, thev
would have voted the other wav The
I-a France price was $450 lower than
the Seagrave's and its guarantee
longer The Seagrave advocates con
tended that the difference in I rice
was made up in the lact that the lai
France machine would develop Hie
required 90-horsepower only when
the engine was speeded up to an ex
cessive rate, while the Seagrave
would develop "ninety” at normal,
and when the engine was speeded
lux-horsepower could he developed.
The ladders on the Seagrave appara
tus were more durable than tnose on
the lat France, it was said. At
tempts -.ere made to have the price
of the Seugrave reduced to that of
the I.a France and also to lengthen
the time of guarantee to five years,
hut tioth motions were lost. A mo
tion amending the McDonald resolu
tion to read so that the payment
would he the same as tinder the I*-
France contract six months from
time the machines are accepted,
without Interest—was passed.
Mr I.yon, of Lyon and Kelly, local
agents for the Seagrave fire appa
ratus, was present and staled that
he would see that the guarantee was
carried out to the letter The new
apparatus will cost between $14,000
and $16,000.
