A Novel Steel Fire Boat.

The new steel fire boat New Yorker,
Of New York city, built by the Jonson
Foundry and Machine Company for the
Fire Department, has been launched, Its
length is 125 feet FIVE inches, breadth of
beam twenty-six feet, and the displace-
ment $50 tons, or fifty-two tons per inch
to load water line.
One of the advantages Of this new YES
sci is to be its power to fight fire along
the water front, Many of the ware
houses are lofty, with thick walls and
windows protected by iron shutters,
which cannot be reached and opened by
the ordinary fire appliances. Firemen,
therefore, have often been compelled to
wait until the flames burst through the
roof before anything successful could be
done toward extinguishing the fire. Even
the powerful fireboats already con-
structed have not been all that could be
desired in this respect.
The New Yorker is, however, expected
to be far more powerful than anything
that has yet been seen in these waters
Capable OF throwing nifty tons OF water
in minute, it will swamp any ordinary
water front fire in short time. But the
great advantage will be in the throwing
Of bolt of water five inches in diameter
with such force against iron shutters as
to perforate them like tissue paper. This
stream viii also be strong enough to
force hole through thick wall, and
thus enable the fifty tons of water to be-
poured into the burning building every
minute.
