fire than Brooklyn is to-day. This was true NOT
only IN the downtown districts. but all over
Mr.. Doyle went on 10 say:
The water pressure supplied in Baltimore is far
stronger than that which Is the disposal Of fba
Fire Department Of Brooklyn TO-DAY. and n 6rs

is nothing there 70 stop H. and IL Is fairly ellra
that supply Of water downtown would have
rut little effect on a fre Ike the one that has
caused ruin IN Baltimore.
The talk about our engines using salt water Ia q
brought about a wrong impression in many omar
tiers our engines different from those fl19t
used In Baltimore. Washington or any other
big city. and The engines Of those cities can use
salt water through their hose as well as those Of
New-1ork city: in fact, = I am not mistaken the
engines nearly all made by one and the same

this purpose fresh water alone be used. Should
the fresh water supily give out entirely engine
supplied with salt water could run for only about
eight minutes before being nut out OF business
