IL. II. Blair, Esq J. in 1882. ln 1887 there
were 44S supplies of water in the city. The
old Shockoe Manufacturing Company fnow
Messrs. Talb)it It Sons, Cary and Seven
teenth streets) was the first steam engine TO
use the city water. The present number Of
water.takers' Is about 5000. with SO miIes OF
pipes, ranging from 30 inches to "a inches
In interior diameter. The old reservoir now
contains, when FULL, 10000, 900 and the new
100000 gallons Of water. The old one
was enlarged to Its present size in 1874, and
The new one finished and the water turned
from IT into the city January 1st, 1876.
Ihere are now eight water.p0wer and one
steam DnDp, the wate..Dower pumps taking
their water Immediately frop, the river, and
the steam pump from the canal.
The works are generally In good working
order; the pumps. though taxed to their
utmost capacity, still maintain the head in
the reservoirs. During the past summer
for several weeks the river was perhaps as
low as II ever was, during which time the
power Of the pumps was so lessened that
In order to supply the higher parts Of the
city the old reservoir was thrown out OF
use. Some few poitions Of the city were
without water, but sufficiently near other
sources that, In case Of fire, they conld be
reached by the fire engines. No serious
damage occurred other than the stoppagc
Of few factories and other buildings.
The reservoirs are both in very good con-
dition, and properly attended to by their re
spective surerintendents. On the night OF
the Goth OF October last severe storm 0c.
cured, doing considerable damage to the
turing OF the hcw reservoir, all OF which
has been repaired and is now in good con.
dition.
The street.mains, fre-plugs, and stop
cocks are in good working order. A few OF
The re.plu9s and stop-cOcks were repaired
during the year. AS these are OF tue ut
most importance to the works, they are
often examined.
There were laid during the year 376 feet
OF six.iucb, 1856 feet OF four-inch, and 299
feet of thIee-inch iron pipe. One six-ipcb,
two four.incb, and one threeiDch stop
cocks, and four double-n0zzle ire-Dlu2s
were put in. One hundred and thirty four
new attachments with the street.mains were
made for private and other buildings, in
cluding two hydraulic elevators.
