Second. They shall also inspect the boil¬ ers ofall steamers before tho s;ime shall be used, and once at letist in every year thore¬ aftor, subjecting them to the hydrostatic pressure prescribed by this act. aud satisfy themselves by thorough examination that the boilers arc well made, of good and suit¬ able material; that thu openings for the paB.?agc cf water and .steam, respoctively, and all pipes and tubes exposed to heat, i are of proper dimensions and irce Iiom ob¬ struction ; that thfl spaces between and around the flues are puffioierit, and that the flues aro circuhtr in form, and the flre-lino of thc furnace is at least two inches below fhe prescribed minimuiu water-line,of the boilers; and that the arrangoment for de¬ livering thc feed-water is such that thc boilers caanot be injured thereb}'; and that such boilers and the machinery, and the iippurtenances. may bc safely employed in the service prop ised in the writtei) ap¬ plication witliout peril to lifo; and shtill also satisfy themselves that thc .•safety-valves aro of suitiible dimcn.sions. suffioient in number, and well arranged, (one of which may, if uecessiry, in the opiniou of the inspectors, to secure safety, be taken whol¬ ly from the C'lntrol of till persons engaged in navigating such vessel, and seenred by the in.spectors.) and that tho weights of the sai'ety-vdivcs are properly adjusted, sn as to allow uo greater pressure iii the boij- ers than tho amount prescribed by the in¬ spection certificate; thiit thcro is a suffi¬ cient number of gauge-cocks properly in¬ serted, and to indicato thc pressure of steam, suitable steam registers fluit will correctly re>!ord each excess of st-oam car¬ ried abovo the prescribed limit and fhe highest point attained, which shall bo ta- keti wholly from tho c.jiitrol of all persons engaged in navigating such vessel, aud se¬ cured by the inspectors, and reliable low- water giiugcs ; and that fusible metals aro pr.iperly inserted so as to fuse by the heat of tho funiiicc when the Wiiter in the boil¬ ers shall fall below ifs prescribed limits; aud that ai\cquiite and certain provision is made for an ample sapply of water to i'ecd the boilers at idl times, wheiher suoh ves¬ sel is in motion or not, so that in high pressure buil.^rs the water shall not be loss than four inches above the top of the flues; and also that means fur blowing out are provided, so as to thoroughly remove the mud and sediment from all parts of thc boilers when they are under pressure of steam : Provided, hoicever, That no kind of iustrument, machine, or equipment, for the better security of life, provided for by this act, shall be used on any such vessel which shall not first bc approved by the board of supervising inspectors, and also by the Secretary of thc "Treasury. Third. That in subjecting to the hydro¬ static tests boilers called and usually known under tho designation of high-pressure boilers, the inspector shall assume one hundred and ten pounda to the square inch as the maximum pressure allowable .as a working power for a uew boiler forty-two inches in diameter, made in fhe best man¬ ner, of inspected iron plates, one-fourth of an inch thick, and of a quality required by law, and shall rate the working power of all high-pressure boilcr.s, whqther ojd or uew, according to their strength, compared with this standard, and in all Ciises the test appliod shall exceed the working power allowed in the ratio of ono hundred aud sixty-five to one hundred aud fen ; and in subjecting to the test aforesaid that chiss of boilurs u.sually designated and ktuiwa as low-pressure boilers, the said inspoctors shall allow tis a working power ofeach new boiler a pressure of only three-fourths the numher of pounds to the .square inch to which it shall have been subjected by the hydrostatic test, and found to be sufficient therefor; but should such inspectors bc of thc opinion that said boiler, by rea.soii of its construction or material, will not safely allow so high a workiug pressure, they may, for reasons to be stilted specially in thoir certificate, fix the working pressure of said boiler at less than three-fourths of said test pressure; but .all boilers used on stcam- Eourtli. AVhen the inspection is comple¬ ted, and the inspoctors approve the vessel and her equipment throughout, fhey shall make and subscribe a certificate to the col¬ lector or other chief officer of tho customs of the district in whicii such inspections shidi be mado, in accordance with .';uch form and regulations as the board of su- pervi.-^ing inspoctors shall prescribe; which certificato shall be verified by the oaths of fhe inspectors signing it, before the chief officer of the custonis of fhe district, or any other person competent hy liiw to aduiini.s- ter Oi'.ths; and incase thc said inspectors refuse to grant a certificate of approval, they shall state in w riting, and sign tho .same, their reason for their disapproval.
