TO REACH TALL BUILDINGS.
Chief Kellogg's Plan of Exiting uishing
Top-Story Fires.

The rapid and continued erection of massive
brick and stone blocks of FIVE stories and more
has placed a new and important problem before
Chief Kellogg, of the fire department.. He said
10 a PosT-lSTELLIGENCER reporter yesterday:
with the present apparatus and water supply
how could hot fire in the fifth story of one of
the large buildings be fought and handled sue
cessiulIy? The question Is practical and might
require demonstration 81 any moment. 1t Is
possible, under favorable conditions, to run a
line upstairs inside the building, but would the
first occasion present such conditions? That is
entirely suggestions.
After much study, Chief Kellogg yesterday
started with the first of a series OF experiments
which will be of much practical value in future
fire battles. AS water tower has proven the
most effectual means OF fighting fires in upper
stories, when the heat is intense, and Seattle
has no water tower, he will try to find supsti-
tute. 1t would be impossible to keep
man close TO hot FIRE on an
aerial ladder, fully extended. Therefore the
chief concluded that. while the ladder must be
used as means to carry the hose to the proper
elevation, it was not practical to keep one man
in so dangerous position The experiment
yesterday was to see how a variable hose nozzle
manufactured by Charles W. Pearsoil & Co., of
Syracuse, y. Y, would work. The ladder was
run up forty feet at fire department head
quarters, and one man handled the hose. The
nozzle was IL success, easily handled. and threw
the water over large territory.
The second experiment was made with an or
binary nozzle, the hose being run up the ladder
and attached so that there was necessity for
man at the nozzle The object in view was to
ascertain whether it was possible TO direct the
stream from the ground by use OF the front
wheels of the truck. The experiment was in a
measure successful, and indicated that the plan
when perfected in detail might prove pract:-
