FIRE COMMISSIONERS.

No Trials for the Past Two Weeks.Ex-
cellent Condition Of the Department..
The Fire Commissioners held their regular meeting
made that there was not single complaint against
member OF the nre brigade and that there had not
been one for two weeks-something unprecedented
In the annals OF the department. The Commission
ers adopted new revolving nozzle for fires on
ships, in cellars, In narrow streets and alleyways,
and also for oil fires, invented by Engineer Orr, Of
the Repair Bureau. 1t is intended to have re-
volving nozzle to every hose, and to take one TO
every fire, so that it be used If necessary. The
nozzle causes the stream OF water to ny in every
direction and dissipates smoke.
The advisability OF extending the telegraph lines
to she annexed district was also discussed, and it
was stated that eighteen or twenty miles Of wire
ever, was taken. - NL, % y. fL
q The powder which the Fire Commissioners pro-
pose to use IS the dynamite. better known as the
giant powder, which IL to be exploded BY the ap-
plication of o copper cap attached to fuse. The
Fire Commissioners propose to make expert .nents
In the presence Of the Park commissioners to show
for storage purposes. Yesterday some little ex-
periments were made BY the engineers Of the Fire
Department IN the room OF the PARK Commits
slOners. very small quantity Of the powder was
placed near the fire without its being ignted and
1t was shown that only the explosion Of the cap
would ignite It. Experiments on large scale Will
Commissioners win be granted. II will be difncult
to select the best park Tor the purpose as the resi-
dents OF Its vicinity win be afraid OF an explosion
OF the powder, but 1t is PROBABLE that one OF the
smaller parks down town will be set apart.
In regard to the acquisition OF the parade ground
for the militia the Commissioners have dlscOn-
tinued all proceedings in consequence or the repre-
sensations addressed TO them BY Mayor Have
never.

how TO CLEAN THE STREETS,

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:-
While the streets are in the filthy condition they
are at present, with melted snow, slush and mud,
would It not be economy ana q great convenience
to the people doing business on Broadway to wash
the streets with water from the MIGRANTS at the
corners While the slush is in half running con.
dition very little Croton water would carry it
away. There Is plenty OF water, for rain that Gre
ates the slush, at present. will supply the reser-
volr with more The entire length OF Broadway
could be washed clean, and even the sidewalks
could be kept perfectly clear OF mud, for which we
need not go TO Jersey. As the streets are now,
they only differ In the color This may seem OBJ.
jectionabie now, but the time will come, as 1t has
In other things, when we will smile at our past
folly IN living in such filth while we nave the
means OF getting rid Of IL at our command The
entire street and sidewalks could be washed by
means OF the hose by playing the stream on the
middle Of the road and a dash on the walks when
opportunity offered. The waste water from Broad
way running down the side streets would clear
their cutters also.
The Fire Department would not be nterfered
with, there being no chance Of scarcity oil water
while the weather continues so wet.
The use Of water for the above purpose could be
regulated by the Fire Department.. J. C. B.
