How the Government Printing Office
Will Secure Water.
There will doubtless have to BIO an arte-
sian well at the Government Printing
ONCE, or some other way of procuring q
reliable source Of water supply. Time and
again the water has suddenly ceased to flow
through the pipes in the building, and, as
It is quite necessary In printing office, the
lack Of It throws everything into confusion
and causes valuable loss OF time. Some
time ago Public Printer Benedict wrote the
Commissioners, asking the reason why the
water was cut off, without at least giving
notice.
Mr.. Webb, In his answer, which was
mailed to the Public Printer to-day, say
thaEhe ia informed by Captain Lusk, who
has charge Of the Water Department, that
the trouble Ia liable to occur at any time
because OF the fact that the water supply OF
the Printing Office traverses many Of the
public water pipes before reaching Its des-
tination, and that such pipes are liable to
be tapped at any moment and the water
shut of in consequence. Hereafter every
precaution will be taken to prevent rep
etition Of the inconvenience.
