WARSHIPS IN PORT.

port yesterday::---

·Basin.--Tamar.

Ships carrying freight and pas- sengers on the same deck must be equipped with efficient overhead water sprinkling systems. In addi tion, even the smallest ships are required to carry an adequate supply at fire buckets, axes and portable extinguishers;

There is little to burn in the modern ship, which is constructed Jargely of metal and other nonin- flammable materials. While artistic. decorations call for paint and draperies, curtains are usually of ashestas nature and treated with an antipyrene solution, while fire-re- tarding and fime-resisting paint, is being, developed,

In the older type of vessel, it was not uncommon for fires to break out in the cool supply by spontane- ous combustion and often they would' continue to smolder until the ship reached port. This danger is Bow eliminated because many of the larger vessels are burning oil. "Spe; cial precautions are taken in carry- ing the fuel supply
