Text-book of hygiene; a comprehensive treatise on the principles and practice of preventive medicine from an American stand-point . of a hose passed through the coal-bunkerdoor. The magazines proper, without handling rooms, are pumpedout after a flooding by means of a hose passed through a cap in the topof the magazine. In most of the wooden ships the bilge-room consists of a tri-angular-shaped space running along the entire length of the shipsbottom and inclosed between the bottom, the loose deck-planking, andthe keelson (see Fig. 34). The numerous ribs of the ship divide thisspace transversely into a number of partitions, between which, how-ever, communications are established through borings, forming theso-called waterways (see Fig. 35). In iron ships, the ribs being fur-ther apart, these partitions are broader and more spacious, as well asdeeper (Fig. 35). When double bottoms were introduced, and when these wereused for the storage of iron tanks containing feed-water for theboilers, the bilge-spaces underwent a lateral displacement and cameto be located between the inclined planes of the ships sides and those. fee c I E. booT (302) > F
