FIRE SIGNALS.
Superintendent Speicher Re-
ports on the Overhauling
of the System.

For the four months ending June 30,
Superintendent Speicher has overhauled
the signal system in the seven precincts.
In the first precinct he has rewired and
placed porcelain insulators at the back
of the. building. BY so doing he states
he prevents any danger Of damage to the
system. He has also overhauled the sig
nal booth at Montgomery and Hudson
streets for the fash light and has recon-
struggled number of signal boxes. He
has taken off thirty seven cells of battery
which were not required to work the sys-
tenn.
In the second precinct he has made a
number of changes and in addition eighty
cross arms an strips which were re-
quired to rewire the boxes there. A num-
Der of cells of battery were taken off in
this precinct also.
In the third precinct he repaired con-
siderable damage done the system by a
crossing of an electric wire and made
improvements in the station house.
In the fourth precinct he calls atten-
ton that owing to the poor construction
of the wires the crossing Of an electric
wire considerably damaged the signal
machine and number of boxes on April
10. All this has been repaired. There
were minor repairs in the fifth precinct.
In the sixth precinct several boxes be-
came out of order owing to cross wires
and poor construction of their wires
There were minor repairs in the seventh
precinct.
Superintendent Speicher also reports
that the wires in all station houses are
in poor condition with the exception of
the Fifth Precinct. He ststes that they
are improperly strung in the pole con-
nections which causes great deal of
resistance, and that more battery force
is required to work the system than if
the wires We're properly strung. He
declares that it will take nearly year
to overhaul the system and put it in
proper working order.
Mr.. Speicher's report in a sense re-
fleets upon Sergeant William Foley, but
it is known that Mr. Foley did excellent
work as superintendent Of the signal
system during all the years he was at
the head of that department, and that
but little money was spent during that
time for repairs.
