The subject of paid department was
spoken OF, and it seemed to be the gen
eral opinion that the citizens did not
want one.
Chief Hanna stated that as far as he
was personally concerned he was in fa-
vor of paid department, but thought it
would not be advantageous to the citi-
zens. He also complimented the depart
ment on their work at the fire on NJ onday

obeying his command, He thought that

After remarks by several other mem

$1,000, but was defeated. Another mo-
ton to make it $4,000 was agreed to, and
the following committee was appointed
to present petition to Council:
Chief Hanna, First Assistants, Thomas
and James Agnew.

The Dover Post Office.

HANDSOME, IMPOSING BUILDING-ITs
cosr-MoRE APPROPRIATED FOR TT
THAN WAS ASKED.
"What splendid postoffice for a town
OF this size !" is the inyariable exclama-
ton of visitors to Dover, as they observe
the stately and imposing building which
stands at the h rad of Lockerman street.
stately and imposing it certainly is, and
few towns in the country of even larger
size, can rival Dover in this respect
The dimensions and general appear.
ance of the Dover postoffice have fre-
quently been described in the papers of
THIS State, but there are some interesting
details connected with the conception
ana construction of the enterprise which
nave never yet been made public.
When Senator salisbury, being i'm
pressed with the miserable mail accomo-
uatlons OF his town, and the extreme ne
ceSslty Tor the erection of a new post
offlce in Dover brought the subject be-
fore Congress he asked for an appropria
ton OF only S25 900, deeming that amount
amply sufficient for the erection of a
building which would meet all the re-
quirements of the town. The appropria-
tlon committee, however, thought that
nothing less than 900 would answer.
and accordingly Mullett, the supervising
architect of the Treasury Department,
was consulted in regard to the matter.
DE joined the committee in over coming
Senator Saulsbury's objections to a large
appropriation, and positively refused to
prepare specifications for building cost
ing less than $4,000, and this latter
amount was accordingly appropriated.
When the building was fairly under way
the appropriation was soon exhausted,
and an additional appropriation of S14,.
600 was made. A similar approximation
will be necessary to finish and
furnish the bui lding, which will
make the total cost $1,000.
One item of expense connected with
the construct, on as related by the Dover
people, is quite interesting 1t is to the
effect that during last winter about 6OOO
bricks We're dumped around the building,
and for three months a watcbman was
paid $40 per months for the sole purpose
or watching these bricks.
When completed. the new postoffice
VIII be an important acqui sition to the
town, and addition to the postal facilities
viii possess commodious court room,
where sessions of the u. S. District and
Circuit Courts will be held from time to
time. This will be great convenience
to the people not only of Dover but of
lower Delaware generally, who at pre-
sent have to come up to Wilmington to
attend to all business in the u. s. Courts.

CAPT. GALLAGHER RESUMES HIS ANNUAL
TALKS TO CCUNClL-THE. PRESENT
CONDITION OF TIE DEPARTMENT.
At the meeting of City Council, last
night, Capt. q. II. Gallagher, Chief
Engineer of the Water Department,
presented his annual report. which we
condense, as follows
The report states that all the ma
chinery 10 in good condition, and that
the boiler at Tenth and Market has
been repaired since October, at a cost
of $29t .94. The reservoirs are all in
good order. The report recommends
that pumps be procured for the pur-
pose of supplying Rodney street basin
directly from the Brandywine.
OF finances, the report says that the
receipts of the Department will aggre-
gate about $4,000 this year. Since
October new water renttrs to the
amount of $3.50 have been found. The
properties do not appear upon the
registry of the department. / found
the same state of things existing in
the year 1872. and. by the expenditure
of about 5000 for inspectors the
water rents were increased over So, 500
per annum.
Appended to the report are numerous
tables in reference to the minuti9 of
the department, from which it appears
that the cash received during the year
from all sourcess was $53, ,240.34, the
expenditures were: Water Depart
ment, $27.142.87 construction of
pipe, $l4, ,489.70 Cool Spring Reser-
voir. $34 ,675 90 total. $76.302. 70.
The number of permits issued during
the year was 277 new tenants, 10 ;
tenants now registered. 1887 num-
Der of dwellings, ETC.. to which Braa-
dywiue water is now disturbed, is
6,430.
The number of gallons of water
supplied during the year was 6O7 ,329. :
233. the daily average being 1,o25, ,304.
The number of gallons pumped from
the reservoir at Tenth and Market to
that at Eighth and Rodney streets was
9s,O8S, 900.
After calling attention to the many
small II inch mains laid in the cen
tral part of the city, which were total.
ly Inadequate in case of fire, the re-
port alludes to the introduction of
water into the Ninth and lower part
of the Second Wards, the report con-
cludes as follows:
In conclusion would suggest that
10 asking authority to issue bonds to
finish the Cool Spring reservoir that
the additional sum of S15, COO be asked
for the purpose of making the change
Of water pumps, as suggested, at the
city mill, and for supply main for
same. l would further suggest that
the ordinance recognizing the water
department be so changed that the reg
istray may be elected for term of
two years, instead of one year, as now
fixed. The reason for this change is
that the removal of chief engineer
and registrar at the same time places
the department under the control of
inexperienced officers, who, while will.
ling and anxious to serve the interest
of the city, fail for want of practical
knowledge of their duties, and the re-
suit is loss to the city.
To the efficient corps of officers now
in the service of the Water Depart
ment l am indebted for prompt ard
faithful performance of their duties.
Respectfully submitted.
