FLOATING FIRE ENGINES.
Powerful and Effective Equipment of
New York's Fire Boats.


Mr.. Charles T. Hill contributes to
st. Nicholas another paper in his series
devoted to New York's fire department.
The present article describes the Float
ing Fire Engines" In writing of the
New Yorker, Mr.. Hill says of her equip
ment of pumps:
These pumps have a throwing ca
pacity of fully 10000 gallons of water
every minute. and under the best condi-
lions they have been known to reach
$4,000 gallons a minute-over 5000 gal
Ions more than any other freboat ahoat.
The water is drawn in through the sides
of the boat, below the water line, into
what is known as the suction bay"
making an inner reservoir from which
the pumps are fed.
There are about 10000 little holes,
three-eighths inch in diameter, bored in
the sides of the boat just outside these
suction bays, and through these holes
the water is drawn in, and filtered so
that no foreign substance may get into
the pumps. From the pumps it is forced
into an air chamber. thus equaAizing

n yeritable water main 70 inches in
diameter, which runs all around the
boat, between decks, and supplies the
various outlets. There are 40 of these
outlets Gncluding the four stand pipes
or monitor nozzles), and they vary in
size from six inches in diameter down
to 21h inches (the size of the regulation
fire hose). Two of the monitor nozzles
are mounted aft, on top of the cabin,
and a big and a small one on top of the
wheelhouse. The two stand pipes aft
have 2h-inch nozzles, the big one on the
wheelhouse having a 31k-inch opening,
From the latter a solid 3h-inch stream
can be thrown a distance of 800 feet, and
If necessary this can be increased to a
bH-inch opening, and a mighty stream
of water, having that width, can be sent
laundering out into space over 200 feet.
If you could hear this immense stream
as itpours into the bay, like miniature
cataract. you could better appreciate
the power of this remarkable boat.
No body of fire could very long with
stand a deluge like this, and it requires

To the orR4ets along the side of the
deckhouse and at the bow and stern
are attached short lengths of hose, to
fight fire at close range. The pumps
of the New Yorker are so powerful, and
the pressure of these outlets is so great,
that it would be impossible for men to
handle these lines if there were not
some sort of machinery to aid them,

''rail pipe" is brought into play. This is

control and direct the heaviest stream

can be managed by one man each.
The freproof construction of the New

streams at short range; and, should the
heat become so intense that the men are
not able to stand by the rail pipes"
protecting shields are brought into use,
behind which they can direct the
streams with comfort. These shields
slide along inside the rail, on kind of
railway, so they can be placed at any
part of the boat; and there is one on
each side. They are made of two thick
nesses of corrugated iron. with an air
space between, thus preventing the in
ner lining from becoming heated They
are arched at the top, and in shape are
somewhat like the shields used to pro-
tect the gunners while working at the
rapid-fring guns on our modern men

There is an opening at the bottom of
these shields for the nozzles of the rail
pipes to project through. and an oblong
slot above for the fireman to look
through and direct the water. With the
aid of this protection for the men, and
because of her own salamander-like con-
struction, the New Yorker is able to
sail up close to burning vessel or pier
and deliver broadside of powerful
