FIRE ENGINE TESTED.
Examined by War Department Board
at Fort Mver

The board which was appointed by the
War Department to witness the test of the
new fire engine that has recently been sta
toned at Fort Myer. went to the fort this
morning and was given a good exhibition
of the work that can be done by the en-
CINE. The apparatus was stationed by the
side of the drill field and threw double
stream of water a great distance across
the open space. With but one hose attach
ed to the engine the stream of water was
thrown to great height.
The result of the test was said to be very
gratifying to the board which consisted
of Maj. Slavens of the quartermaster gem
erals office, Capt. Butt of the quarterrnas-
ter S department, Gen. Humphrey quarter
master general; Maj. Lattauer and Can't
Cassett, commanding officer of the fort.
The engine. which is built for fighting
fires in small towns and reservations. was
constructed by the Waterous Engine Works
Company of st Paul. MINI. and is run by
gasoline fuel.
AT the conclusion of the test, which was
superintendent by Mr.. Henry L. Cremer
general agent for the company Capt. Cas-
sett appointed brigade of fifteen or more
soldiers to go under instructions of the en-
gineer and learn the running of the appara-
tus. A fire engine house has been built next
