As the authorities are no doubt con scious of a public-desire that the strict est economy be exercised in this im portant matter, it occurs to the writer to suggest a possible plan of econ omy and efficiency. You are aware, Mr. Editor, that the i foot of Chestnut street the city main tains a fire boat and a crew of some four or five men. 1 do not know the, capacity of this tire-boat, but it is no j doubt of ample capacity to tow a flat j or ferry, across the river. As the site of the ferry is only a couple of blocks distant from the present lire station, surely no risk would be incurred in connection with the ferry. The fire boat has very few calls at oresent. and the slight inconvenience to be incurred by river passengers in case of a possible fire would be more han offset by the advantages of a erry adequate for the needs of the 'oniniunily, or indeed any sort of fer ry that would be an improvement up on present transportation conditions cross the river. Councilman McCaig has just point- J d out the need for the exercise of 1 rigid economy. Would it not there fore be wise to use the fire boat and the firemen in the operation of the I'erry ?
