The EEGINE TEsT.-A steam FIRE engine,
manufactured at Elmira, New York, by the
La France Company, was tried at the corner
of Fourth and J streets at P. VI. yesterday,
in the presence Of a very large company Of
citizens, aud under the critical observation of
Chief Engineer Sullivan, the Fire Commits
sioners and several practical engineers The
machine was exhibited at the State Fair re-
Gently by +. A. Scott & Co. The engine is
a very handsome one, light and strong. 1t is
rotary and ranks fourth-class engine.
The exhibition was entertaining, and the en-
gine gave evidence OF being an excellent one,
tbpugh tho nvbiIifnrg IopIara1 fo ha
true test, and that the full powers OF the ma
chine were not developed for two reasons it
was the FIRST real trial and action of the
engine, and the packings were not tight
as they would be after being ia service time;
second the boiler foamed, owing to there be-
ing in it more or l6ss oil, due to the new
ness Of the structure. The exhibitor claimed
that the engine with full steam pressure
through one section of hose, throw q ssven-
eighths stream 260 feet. The engine was
tried with two lengths Of hose, drafting her
own water from a cistern, first with an inch
nozzle, throwing q stream 1G3 feet with %
pounds ot steam-pressure and 50 OF water, lIO
with 50 and 100, and ia with 100 and ll0
Steam was at one time raised to 100
Next, branch was put on, two streams, one
seven-eights and Oue one inch thrown, and
about 1870 feet Of distance covered. Outsiders
seemed much better pleased with the action
Of the steamer than those who had her in
charge, who expected much greater results.
