一些旧金山消防记录。

[专门为火和水写的。)

旧金山消防局的地区工程师约翰·威利斯(John Willis)赢得了第一枚扫描奖奖牌,以获得英勇行为。这是在消防专员的一次会议上向他介绍的。这两家新公司可能会被添加到该市消防部门。随着水电池的工作和改善的水塔,这座城市的沙利文酋长的发明。通过2 1 -2英寸的喷嘴,电池流被扔到200英尺以上,三个发动机一直忙于将水通过几条软管迫使水进入电池,该电池载有两轮车,整个服装不重超过11,000磅。它可以被带到山丘上的任何地方,进入狭窄的街道和小巷,在这里,水塔不可能走。可以将四到五行软管连接到有球螺旋的电池上,并且可以使用强大的2英寸溪流,这无疑是迅速检查访问酋长没有梦想的大火的一种很好的解决方案。去年大火摧毁或部分摧毁的建筑物和物品的保险为5,882,756.53美元。总损失为993,555.56美元,支付的总保险为884,893.01 $。应该有一个完全付费的消防部门; that keyless doors be provided for fire alarm boxes in the mercantile districts; that all wires, telephone and telegraph, be placed underground; that at least too cisterns be built with direct connection from the water mains, so that several engines could pump out of them, thereby bringing the engines closer to the fire and saving loss to hose through long leads.—Chief Sullivan’s report shows that in the harness-makers' department a saving of about loo per cent, was shown in hose covers, blankets, and all other articles, caused by purchasing the material wholesale and making the articles instead of as formerly having the articles supplied even by the lowest bidder.
