Two Of the Memphis Operators Leave for
Their Homes, and the Lineman
Joins the Strikers.

The most interesting local event yesterday
was the action of 81. E. Conley, the linemap,
from the main Office to the Merchants Ex-
change and bucket-shopS. The operators
there quit yesterday, as already noticed, and

capable Of doing this and his refusal leaves
the company still involved with the Ex-
change and the bucke:-shops, with whom 1t
has contracts.

CITY WATER-WORKs.

This department throughout j. in very
good condition. The Bevei mOrticed cog
wheel OF the turbine pumps gave out on
the 18th OF November, necesSltating re-
cogging, which has been done, and it IA
now working perfectly. Although the
river has been low during the summer,
and Is now much lower than usual at this
time of the year, still the supply. with the
aid OF The Worthington steani-pump,
working about hall the time, has been
uniformly kept up in the reservoirs. This
pump has proved great auxiliary TO the
pumping-power, and It's performance Zip
To this time has been entirely satisfactory.
The old -tcam-punip at the old works has
not been used since the Worthington
steam. puMp wA started, nor will probably
be again.
Tie large increase in new buildings In
the city, and particularly in the west.
northwest, and eastern portions, has made
IL necessary 10 extend the street mains to Il
much greater extent than usual. There
were laid down during The year 1862 feet
OF G-nch. 2,2lG feet OF finch, 1,iCG feet
OF 3-inoh, and 900 feet OF Pinch cast-iron
water-pipe, making . miles l,,2i feet.
From these and other mains OF the works
there have been put IN - doublC-nozzIe fire
plugs. The extension OF tue city another
year will very probably require as many
new mains rs the past. Several changes
have been made during the year OF the
supply-mains nom the lower 10 the upper
reservoir, thereby greatly improving the
water supply in the different localities.
