Water famine hits Staten Island during warehouse fire
The North Shore suffered a water shortage after heavy use in the American Cotton and Trust Company fire at St. George. Chief Guerrin ordered hydrants shut and water drawn from the Bay while residents on Ward and Fort hills faced shutoffs. The Staten Island Water Supply Company promised deliveries by barrel and truck until normal pressure returned. Deputy Water Commissioner Edward Miller said he urged minimal hydrant use to protect hillside pressure, but Chief Croker continued using hydrant water, noting salt water would harm engines.
