TEST OF PIER STANDPIPES.
Chief Croker Wants Other Companies to
Follow Old DOminiOn's Example.

The system OF standpipes which was
installed at the Old Dominion Line pier at
North River and Beach street some time
ago was tested yesterday by Fire Chief
Croker. Croker wished to show the agents
of other lines the advantages of the system
A big iron pipe runs the entire length Of
the pier suspended few feet below the
roof There are eight branches from this
main pipe on each side of the pier, and a
short hose from the end OF each branch.
The branches can throw a stream on the
pier itself or on boat alongside the pier.
The freboat New Yorker was used yes
terday in pumping water into the main pipe.
When pressure Of nearly three hundred
pounds had been reached a pipe In the
New Yorker known as header burst
and geyser of water shot about fifty feet
up in the air.
The tests had to stop temporarily, but
the accident didn't happen until after the
advantages Of the system had been proved
to the satisfaction Of Chief Croker and the
company officials
The advantage OF the standpipe is that
a fire in a boat alongside or on some part
Of the pier may be extnguished without
interrupting traffic or disturbing freight
on another part of the pier. There is also
ga OF rasb the thanp bursting q;
rubber hose. 1t developed yesterday that
at least as large a pressure OF water could
be secured as with hose
Another interesting test was made partly
at the request of the Dock Department.
hose was attached to the land end OF the
standppe to see how far a stream could
be thrown across West street and up. the
side streets. Frequently there Ia q lack
of water at fires near the waterfront and
the experiment showed that II standpipe
systems are installed on every pier salt
