speeches drink beer, and doze through three

FIRE CHIEF PRAISES HOBOKBN DEPART
MENTs WORK-NEW-YoRK WATER
FRONT NOT IN DANGER

The complete and terrible destruction of the
docks OF the North German Lloyd Company at
Hoboken on Saturday. in which three mighty
ocean liners were reduced into worthless hulks
of battered and twisted iron. 1t only for the
scrap heap; wherein millions Of dollars worth
of property utterly destroyed, and probably
hundreds of lives brought to untimely close,
leads naturally to the inquiry Could such a
horrible catastrophe occur on the river front
Of New-York? A vast number Of our piers are
of wood and set closely together and the in
credible rapidity with which the fire from
pier to pier on the Lloyd company's water
front has led to a fear that should fire of that
magnitude start in the densely freighted
wharves of New-York II might not end within
the limits of loss to either life property of
those marked by the Hoboken fire, great and
terrible they were.
Edward F. Croker. Chief Of the New-York
Fire Department when asked yesterday If it
possible that the horror of the day before
could be duplicated in this city, thought for
moment. and then replied slowly:

do to take care of the floating canalboats and

the larger prey, and kept them from threat
