A Grcnt FIre-FIrhtcr.

The New Yorker made her earliest
appearance as n fire fighter at the burn
ing of the sound steamer City of Rich
mond at her pier, foot Of Peck Slip, on
March :, 1891. She was called from her
berth at the Battery and, sailing up the
East river. Opened fire" on the burn
ing boat with n monitor nozzle while
still in mid-stream. The stream struck
the boat with terrific force. knocking
the woodwork in every direction and
breaking off strong uprights and sup
ports as if they had been pipestems.
There were several land companies
working on the boat at the time, both
engine and hook and ladder. and they
dropped their hose and tools and fed
in dismay at the beginning Of this
liquid bombardment, fearing for their
lives. The chief in command at the
fire rushed 10 the end of the pier and
signaled to the Kew Yorker to shut OF
the stream that was creating such a
panic. For a moment the order was
misunderstood. and, thinking the
stream was wanted in another position,
it was shifted. In doing so it hit the
end of the pier and almost lifted the
roof Of the wharf building at the end
Finally it was understood on board the
New Yorker that the big stream was
not wanted. six smaller lines were sub
stituted by her crew. and these greatly
assisted the land forces in getting ths
fire under control-Charles T. Hill, il
St. Nicholas.
