ErroEr OF THE CHIEF ENGINEER INTERESTING
FACTS AND fIdrRts.
The annual report Of Chief Engineer Gala
gher, %. the Water Department, was submitted
to Council, last evening from Nlca We abstract
the following
In the out,cl Tie report states that tho pump
ing machinery 0l mil No l was found ia the
wort possible couditlIu when the supervision OF
the Department WAS first entrusted to the Chief
Eugiu.er-so bad That had an unusual demand
ioI water been made, the power OF the machine
ly would have been inadequate to furnish the
supply. The Cornish engine which is tie main
reliance in tho season Of greatest demeBd, was
totally unh for Use owing to the disarTangement
oil certain parts, which must have been the re-
suit Of design. Besides. the air chamber was
sadly ont OF repair, and it was with diiiicvty that
apnual supply Of water could he had. The ma
chlnery has all been put in orier, and unless
some unusual accident should happen there will
lie no obstruction to ale supply Of water
Willie stating the fact that anew Worlhiugton
pump las been ordered for Mil No l. the Chief
LuS'reer erltcummends the remodeling Of that
mill, with view to making it more inviting in
appearance. and especially for the purpose Of
protecting the machln ~ from either internal or
eSiernal fires. The cXI Ienliture Of .j.O10 is be-
levcd TO be requisite to make all the needed
imp menta.
lLo attention Of Council is also called to the
distributing pipes. Nearly two-thitds Of all the
pres laid arc four inch and under and are no
longer alelna'e 10 supply the demands Of tho
city. II is suggested that tbe size Of ali uine
hereafter to be laid be fixed by ordinance. and
not be left TO the whims Of committees, which
are constantly being changed. The placing Of
stop valves at the intersections Of several streets
is also recommended
In view Of the increasing population Of tile
Eastern portion OF the city, and the indirect
means Of supplying it with a fall low of
water the suggestion is made that l2-nch
main he lad from the reservoir at lutl and King
along the latter to Church street. connecting
with the several streets which it crosses, with
the ultimate Wow Of carrying it across the
BraudyWug at ith street 70 as to meet tho re-
qult ments OF the population now gathering on
the North side at this point. 1t is further sug-
ges'ed that lG-nch pipe be.laid in Front street
from Lombard to Jackson, with a 12-inch outlet
at the intersection OF Maryland Avenue.
Mr. Dillon is complimeuted for the faithful
perlonnanee of lis contract for laying the new
twenty and thirty inch mains on Eleventh and
