FIRE FIGHTING IN RUSSIA
Methods Employed Are Those of Back

.--- Years Ago.
Insurance Argus.

.-- Years Ago.
Insurance Argus.
One OF the most primitive methods Of
combating fire to. be found anywhere is
that existing in the Russian empire. There
is no fire alarm system as we understand
the term, even in st. Petersburg. AS a
usual thing, the fire department receives
its first intimation of the existence of a
fire In the city when the flames become
sufficiently strong to attract the attention
OF a Waterman located in the tower of
the city hall. Upon discovering fire. the
man in the tower hoists a signal indicat-
Ing where the department is needed. This
signal consists of a number of black balls
by day and of red lanterns by night. cor
responding with the number of the district
in which the, fire is located. It not infre-
quently happens that twenty or thirty
minutes elapse from the time the fire
breaks out before the arrival of the de-
partment. Even when the firemen ap-
pear on the scene they are hampered in
their efforts to subdue the flames by the
crowd which has congregated in and
about the block where the fire is.
