TEST SHOWS WATER
MAY START FIRE
Flames Induced in Hose Line
By Friction Between
Jackets.

BOSTON. Jan. s.-The phenOmen-
on Of water starting a fire is one
that may occur in hose lines that
are tested under certain conditions
but would never be encountered in
practical fire department work &C
cording TO the conclusion of an eX-
pert who has made tests with diff
ferent engines and different types OF
hose as a result OF the Boston fire
department report of the burning of
a hose with no flame nearby.
The tests which have taken the
place of those planned by the de-
partment were made by J. S. Cald-
well, chief engineer Of the New
England insurance exchange. The
first was conducted here with
rotary engine and the flame burned
through two cotton Jackets in Is
minutes. Another test was held
with a centrifugal engine at Port
land, Me. where the rubber lining
was ruptured I'm eight minutes al
lowing the water to soak through
the cotton Jackets preventing igni-
ton. The third test at New Bedford
was with a piston-type engine and
was stopped after eight minutes
when the hose had become charred,
so that chemical tests could be made.
Causes Vibration.
The cause OF the water-induced
flame was said by the engineer to
be friction between the inner and
outer Jackets OF the hose, the re-
suit of a high velocity stream Of
water! which caused vibration or
fluttering OF the hose. The vibra-
ton was found TO be produced
largely by a variance in pressures
on the pump side of the throttle
gate and the hose side due to
choking down Of the opeRng.
Under such conditions the type OF
pump and the make Of hose are not
factors IN the result. Engineer CalJ-
well found. He summarized his
conclusions with the statement
that 1.-THE possibility OF burning
hose while interesting because of it's
peculiar nature is a matter which
does not warrant any change in the
design of either pumping equipment
or hose as the conditions under
which IL Is produced would never
be encountered in practical fire de-
partment work"

mate OF one PittsburE operator.
The tremendous break In the coal
market recalls the boom days IN the
early stages OF the world war.
Within a radius OF IS miles OF
Pittsburg Is the greatest soft coal
producing center in the world.
There are thousands OF mines. big
and little. Along about 1916 and
1917 the demand was 10 times the
supply. Men who knew something
about the coal game, and some VINO
didn't made fortunes in those days.
They were looked upon as flying a
wagon and opened up a one-man
mine alongside Of some hill Il was
a common thing for these One-man
mine outfits 10 clean up 800 10
$3.50 a day. Nobody disturbed them.
They were looked up on rlaying
piker game by the big coal produc-
ing outfits Anybody that could pro-
duce a pound of coal found 20 buy
ers for every ton he could produce.
The little fellows rolled in wealth
quickly Some were enterprising
and soon some Of the one-man
mines developed into two and three
and even half a dozen men mines
and the profits were enormous.
Though they were greatly handi-
capped for lack OF modern labor
saving devices, the little fellows
made fortunes with their teams
hauling coal 10 the railroads and
loading one car at a time. Through
western Pennsylvania there are
hundreds, probably thousands. who
amassed good sized fortunes during
the boom days in coal.
Then the big operators later shut
down on the little fellows and
squeezed them out. The last straw
came when, after a long and bitter
fight. the Pennsylvania public serv-
ice commission ruled that mines
that didn't have tipples Qoading
shutes) couldn't get cars.
But those who save their money
in the boom days need not worry
for the rest OF their lives. They
will have enough.
Now II is the turn Of the big pro-
ducers 10 be squeezed and squeezed
hard. Coal at $3.50 a ton is vir-

PARIS, Jan. 8-Energetic meas

up all undesirable foreigners who
since the war have invaded France.
Police services are TO be completely
reorganiZed and any foreigner found
whose status is not reglementary TO
the customs Of France will be de-
ported Immediately.
Figures published recently show
that there are in Paris some zoo, 900
foreigners. In this number are in
cluded 1900 Germans. %. 900 Ameri-
cans, 1900 Argentinians 1000 Arme-

Colonies Of Foreigners.
In certain parts Of Paris vertible
small colonies exists where French
is hardly ever spoken. where shops
are managed by foreigners. where
even the newspapers are printed in
foreign languages. One such colony
exists in the Latin quarter around
the rue des Rosters, where hundreds
OF Russians and Poles live. other
foreigners and even Parisians pass
ing through those districts are con-
sidered strangers. often insulted,
sometimes attacked and robbed.
Steps were once taken 10 arrest
and depOrt these foreigners, but in
most cases French laws were found
inapplicable Some have been de-
ported out OF the country. They were
usually accompanied 10 the Belgian
FRONTIER and left there. The Bel
gian authorities in their turn found
most of these people undesirable and
promptly depurted them back 10
France. Now arrangements are 10
be made whereby they viii be sent

eastern frontiers. No difficulty is
encountered in the case of Spanicrd :
Italians, Swiss, etc, and they are
usually left at their respective front
iers and rarely find their way back
