Captain Examines Smoke Detector.
NBW YORK. May 24.—Measure*
of precaution taken to insure the safety
of steamships, especially those in pas
senger service, are so elaborate now
a-days that it is generally deemed a
greater risk to cross a busy thorough
fare in a large city, with its scurrying
cabs and automobiles, than it is to take
an ocean journey. The devices util
ized aboard -the steamships of the
United Sfates Lines constantly prove
of great interest to the thousands of
persons who travel the Atlantic on
these modern vessels, and their cap
tains are constantly beseiged by pas
sengers of both sexes, young and old,
with queries concerning their opera
tion.
Captains rake a great pride, natur
ally, in painting out the features aboue
their craft which are of interest to
their passengers and find that, next to
the subject of food, its preparation and
lervice, voyagers are most desirous of
knowing upon what mechanical de
vices the safe passage of the liner
ae^ends.
Captain Theodore Van Beek, com
mander of the Un!**d States liner
President Roosevelt, .has found that a
fire indicator and wbat is known as »
smoke detector, both located on the
bridge jb£ the vessel, are features of the
steamship’s protection service which
his passengers 'particularly..desire to
hare explained to them. Both these
devices are unique and of an immense
value from a precautionary viewpoint.
The smoke detector, devised to. re
Wat to the men on doty on the bridge
the presence of smoke from any con
flagration, big or smalt in any of the
cargo holdt. is built into the liner as is
the fire indicator.
A series of tubes run from each hold
Into the glam faced cabinet in the pilot
house on the bridge of the President
Roosevelt. Through each of these
tubes, the cabinet end of which js
stamped with the hold number, air is
steadily sucked up by means of an
electric suction pump.
I The slightest amount of smoke in
any hold of the vessel is drasvn up
tbrpimfa the pipes in that section and
ean plainly be seen as it arises from
the end of the tube in the cabinet. An
of how efficient is this de
> is shown by the fact that, when
i it M the and. U andk trjh_«
cigaret is smoked near one of the hold
vents, and the smoke is rapidly sucked
up into the pilot house cabinet and
immediately noticed.
In order that the men on duty in the
pilot house may be particularly vigi
lant in watching the detector for evi
dence of fire, there is a standing re
ward of $25 to the man who first sees
smoke coming from any of the tubes.
It can readily be appreciated that this
smoke detector would make the loca
tion and extinguishing of any blaze a
matter of but a few minutes, as the
President Roosevelt and the other ves
sels of the line are equipped with the
last word in fire-fighting apparatus.
Equally as important as tne smoke
Jcteetor, which naturally can only
how where there i* a fire of a smoky
ihgracter, is the fire indicator, which
s operated by heat and leads to the
iiscovery in any compartment of the
vessel, be it dining salon, social hall,
gangway, or pilot house itself, of a
blaze.
The registering device of this indi
eatos, located in the chart room of the
liner, has five drops, similar to those
asad in regular electric call annunci
itors. These drops represent five dif- ■
tu..i .-actions of the ship, each indi- j
rated by a P'-'-'her on a chart near (
he apparatus. Eiecuic wires V'd to !
hese sections and connect with what 1
ippear to be ornaments in the ceiling,
kny heat reaching these “ornaments’’
auscs a drop to fall on the indicator,
md rings a gong. A man dispatched
0 the aection shown on the indicator
an then immediately tell from another
levice of a similar nature the exact
tart of the section where the blaze
vould be.
This fire indicator is also particu
arly sensitive, to much sp, in fact, that
1 burning match held near one of the
'egistering points will cause the ms in
Irop in the chart room to fall, and
urther register the point at which the
icat is generated.
Recently when a photograph was
aken aboard the President Roosevelt.
he heat from the lath light, though
mt temporary, was sufficient to cause
be fire device to signal, causing men '
n the bridge to rush to the chart roam,
