Ambrose Raymond Taaffe |} Chief Stanton On Honored by Being Asked to Read Paper Before Inter- national Association of Fire Chiefs at Syracuse. Before the International Association of Fire enginecers in session at Syra- ocuse, Chief Howard L. Stantion of this city on Thursday was honored by be- ing one of the chiefs selected to read a paper, and the toplc which he was given was The Value of Fire Cisterns. As Norwich is one of a few cisties thus equipped for fighting fires the paper is of much local interest. ' The paper was as follows: The toplc assigned me under the title of the Value of Fire Cisterns, could be added to and read in addition to water under pressure, also should cities having a_system of fire cisterns allow them to be abandoned ? This subject will probably not inter- est Chiefs and others present from larger cities, but to those from cities ot 100,000 population and under and to those cities that date their corporate existence back to the days of bucket tubs, ang the advent of fire hose and suction hand engines, this subject will be more apt to appeal and interest. In presenting this paper to the conven- tion I can only give my experience in my own city where there has been a system of fire cisterns for upwards of 75 years. Neither is this paper intend- ed to be historical for it ix safe to pre- sume that nearly all old cities and | towns have had the sume experience. My city has had_something for fire protection since 1769 when its first was built by local me— 1 existence stored as a relic. Soon after the introduction of suc- tion engines throughout the country, about 1 to 1825, it was apparent that some other method than going to rivers and ponds must be provided to upply suction hand engines then com- ing into general use. In 1846 my city appropriated sufficient money to build a number of fire cisterns. These cis- terns were all built or intended.to be S feet deep and 10 feet in diameter, bricked up and connected with supply pipes varying from 3-8 inch to 2 inch and filled after each fire or when empty by the parties owning small ter systems in different sections of the city. The mouth of was about 30 inches in diamet ing cast iron covers. As alr, ted these cisterns were dug § feet deep and 10 feet indiameter to where they began to taper taward the mouth av— eraging 30 inches at the top, and would hold about 4800 gallons. Although some on account of change of grade in streets were rebuilt so that they are 12 feet deep and will hold about 7500 gallons. These cisterns are located at intersections of stree a in public squares and some are located on hills in restdence At the completion of the city water system in 1870, which, by the way, s a gravity system with a pressure in district of 80 to 95 Ibs. the public were so elated with the hy drant streams with small nozzle: the fire cisterns were ger gotten and the Mayor recommended selling the engines. Grade of streets are often changed in hill towns and the establishing of sewers and the laving of condults is | responsible for the abandonment of many fire cisterns that worth_all they cost to maintain if they.are not used once in ten year: The abandonment of cisterns in many cities has been brought_about very gradually and it often regiires a Stift argument by the Chiefs of des partments to retain them. Some of the reasons why they are ebandoned are, if the cistern has been built in a | narrow street previous to the introduc- tion of large water mains, and there is rock to be taken out to lay new pipe, the inclination is to get through easily and go through the clstern, in many cases making it unfit for suc- tions. The same applies to new sewers and the laying of condults for wires. Also | by trolley companies placing rails over them. At the present time the space beneath narrow streets is so taken up with water pipes, sewers, gas main, conduits, and in my city with com- pressed air pipes that it is very hard work to retain cisterns for fire pur- poses. 3 i Yo doubt there are many present | who have had a like experience trying to hold the old cisterns for emergencies that are bound to come to every city. | It new cisterns were to be built they | would probably be built on different | lines, of cement concrete with waste | pipes into sewers, where the depth of sewer would allow them to be drained, also with overflow pipes; but these old cisterns built years ago were without | drain pipes and answered the purpose | s at intended and were located where it appeared best at that time and in mpst cases good judgment was used in their location. In addition to the cisterns being sup- plied with water from small pipes some were piped tb receive the roof water from churches or buildings with roofs of large area. These were built s0 that the cover of the cistern would be in the sidekalk about 10 inches above grade of street which allowed an overflow pipe to the gutter, thus keeping the cistern filled in wet sea- sons unless emptied by use at a fire. With this description of the old cis- terns, their construction and the way they were filled with water I will en- deavor to give my reasons for retain- ing old ‘cisterns and locating new ones where possible. Wherever possible I have had all old cisterns brought up to grade, cleaned out, and connected up with supply pipes from 4 inch to 8 inch size with gates mnear the cisterns that can be controlled by the stoker of the en— gines, with gate key carried on each engine. The pressure at the gates will vary from 95 Ibs. in the busfess dis trict to 25 Ibs. on hills in resident sec- tions. It s well known that there are many kinds of fire cisterns in use in addition to those bricked up or of concrete construction and piped up with water under pressure, such as surface water reservoirs used in many cities. Also the method of dropping a rubber bag into catch basins and in man holes and filling from hydrants with lines of ‘hose, any kind of cis- tern tank, box or barrel with provision for filling with water, of sufficient quantity to supply one or more en- gines is the object sought and attain- ed iIf the fires are extinguished. Perhaps the best argument for re- taining fire cisterns is, if they are lo— cated in public squares, or wide areas, of sufficient capacity to care for at least two engines, there is little lia- bility of being buried under falling walls or being obliged to move as vou would have to from hydrants in case of a large fire if taking water under pressure from hydrants at the curb. Also that ever-important problem of the interchangeability of couplings when assistance is sent other cities. 1f they carry their own hose the problem is partly solved with cisterns whether ihe hose couplings are standard or not. This alone is sufficient to war- rant the expense of maintaining cis terns. The matter of keeping the cistern filled while playing can be left to the: stoker ofjthe engine, it being supposed that the fgate controlling the water 10 the cietern is' placed near the cistern and with a reasonable size pipe with water under sufficient head to keep the cistern full. To sum up, of what advantages are firé cisterns? ist. It properly located in wide areas they are invaluable in case of a conflagation, by not being obliged to pick up and get away from falling walls. 2nd. If outside assistance !s re- quested from some city not having couplings that will interchange, it will make no difference if they bring suf- ficient hose with their engine and draft from cistern. 3rd. It will compel those in charge of engines to see that they are in zood condition for draughting water, as it is well known that taking water from a hydrant under pressure-is better for a sick engine than whem draughting. 4th. Again in cities with rivers, ponds ‘or canals, flowing through or around them; cisterns can be utilized by stationing the larger engines at the source of supply and pumping into the cistern and from cistern to fire, in case of break in grains. Sth. Should a ak occur in a water main during a large fire the water can be sent into the cistern by damming up the flow sufficient to supply en- gines. 6th. In cities of small size, water mains are apt to be' laid too small, and the size is not increased without the usual amount of talk and trouble. So that even a good water system and a pressure - sufficlent for a small fire and a few streams, engines stationed at cisterns will be found invaluable in case larger and heavier streams are needed. Finally my experience has been to try- and keep in good condition all fire cisterns of whatever size or_type, even with an abundance of water under pressure, and with rivers and ponds near at hand, as the glrne comes to all when every available' source of water supply and every avalilable engine is required to stop large fires.

TUCKERBUNG ASSOCIATION HAS ANNUAL BAKE Affair One of the Most En- in Years—About 75 in At- Annual joyable tendanc The annual clambake Thursday of the Tuckerbung association at the club house on the shore of Poquetan- uck cove was one of the most success- ful in a humber of years. It had been arranged by a committee consisting of Joseph H. Henderson, Charles J. Twist and Henry B. Davenport, which was guarantee enough that it would be a success. Favored with perfect weather there weére about 75 in attendance coming from many places, including Provi- dence, North Attleboro, Winsted and New London, in addition to Norwich. One of the special treats of the day was 4 letter from George W. Waite of Boston, ane of the popular members, who bas never failed to attend when able. He sent his greetings to the as— sociation and members regretting dcen- 1y that he could not attend. He is still suffering from the injuries received sometime ago in a trolley accident near his home in Boston, and his absence proved the only regrettable thing dur- ing the day. At noon a chowder was served by the Wauregan, and at four o'clock the fine clambake was opened and full jus- tice was done to the tempting menu presented. During the afternoon there was a baseball game which excited much interest and rivalry, while the tug of war was also an entertaining tusste. Good cheer always prevails at these gatherings, and such was the case on Thursday. YANTIC HAPPENINGS. Personal Interests — Attended Eagles’ Field Day.
