neapolis would be in first-class co ndi-
ton so far as the water supply is con-
cerned.
Andrew Bergstrom, the North side
stations engineer, was the next wit
ness. He cOrroborated McConnell's evil
dence to the effect that the pumps broke
before they were really accepted by the
city-that is, while they were still on
trial. He said, also. that at one time or
another all four piston rods have caused
trouble by becoming loose, fractured or
broken. Chairman Rollins said the
contract called for 125 pounds pressure.
BergstfOm said the pumps had never.
been run that high. By taking off the
high duty attachment the pumps could
be run up TO 100 pounds.
Rinker had been dropping in an Oc-
casional word
Gentlemen. does what Mr. Rinker says go
into the records" asked the stenographer-
NO, he's just here as attorney for the
pump company" said Rollins.
Rinker sprang to his feet, his eyes
blazing and his voice trembling. He
pounded the table, shook his fist nder
Rollins nose and shouted:
want to say, gentle men, that when the
chairman makes statement that is absolute
ly false-he says what he noWs TO be untrue,
and he knows it.
Rollins grinned, shrugged his shoul
ders, and said little.
BergstrOm went on TO tell about sew
eral small breaks in the pumps. There
were several besides those mentioned
by Mcconnell, all due to imperfect con-
structiOn. Bergstrom did not believe
that back pressure caused the breaks of
the piston rods. He thought they were
too weak.
Brsdish-What do you think of these
pumps as machines?
BergStT0m-I would prefer vertical
pump for this sandy water. and l don't
think the rods were put in properly.
Then the water cylinders were out of
line, and that causes a strain Oh the pis-
tons. l do not know when they got out
/ of line, and don't know what caused
them TO get out of order.
Questioned by KiichlI. Bergstrom said
the 6oilerS work all right. They were
repaired couple of times before they
were accepted, and have been repaired
since.
Rinker wac finally allowed to ask a
question. He did so, and in response to
it Bergstrom stated that ever since the
pumps had been started they had been
run at higher pressure than was re-
quired by the contract. That closed the
session for the day.
After the adjournment Rinker went
on with his TRADE against Rollins down
in the city clerks Office. He was evil
IDENTIFY excited over Rollins hint that he
was working in the interest of the
WorthingtOn people. He repeated the
assertion that Rollins had made false
statements. and couched his assvera-
tons in more emphatic language than
he did while speaking to the committee
as a committee.

About the New Dairy
School.

Dun colOred war clouds lowered over
the city hall yesterday afternoon. The
pump investigation committee resumed
business at the old stand, and had a
lively session. There were two or three
pronounced features. One was the state
of armed neutrality existing between
Alderman Rollins and City Engineer
Rinker. At times it promised TO cease
being mere state of neutrality. An
other feature was the elicitation of the
evidence that these Worthington pumps
were in chronic state of disability, in
want of repairs almost all the time, be-
fore they had been accepted bg the city
and while they were being run on trial.
The investigation will probably close
today. Two more witnesses will be
called, Frank H. Hall and William
Tweedy, the assistant engineers at the
north side station.
The investigation began yesterday
with the examination OF Supervisor Of
Water Works Mcconnell. Mcconnell
began by relating good deal of IN after
ID regard to the pumps that had already
been heard from other witnesses. He
thought that the pumps would be able
to do the work all right if they were not
expected to furnish the pressure oil Mt.
Curve avenue and Ridgewood avenue.
There has always been difficulty in get
ting pressure at these points. Then
Bradish took him in hand.
Bradish-You think. then. that If Mt.
Curve and Ridgewood were taken care of.
these pumps would supply the rest of the
city?
McConnell-Yes, I do. think if the pumps
are started again without trouble, and with
the big main finished. we can take care of
MI. Curve and all the city, too, without any
help from the other stations. We could do
that with seventy-five pounds pressure
At this point Mr.. Rinker requested to
be allowed to ask question. All the
others were willing, but Rollins put his
foot down. Rinker left the room in a
huff, but soon returned.
Mcconnell went on TO say that the

the act of the last legislature which
makes it a misdemeanOr to procure the

The complainant in the case was W.

This morning twenty bodies had been
identified. With the eighteen unidenti-
fed at the morgue and four bodies In

two revealed.
The body of Frederick Trippe, pro-
prietor OF the drug store at 20 Park
place, was found Mt 9:15 o'clock. It
was so badly mangled and burned that
1t was at first impossible to tell
whether IL was n man or woman.
The body of William B. Ellis, of Ellis
& Mcdonald, 10 Park place, was taken
out Of the ruins at II o'clock. II was
burned and mangled almost out of re-
semblance TO humanity, and the cloth
ing was also unrecognizable.
Mr.. Ellis was 40 years old. w. A.
Mcdonald, his partner, is supposed to
be among the dead
At 1890 o'clock the workmen re-
moved timbers which disclosed two
more bodies, one on the site of 40 Park
place, and the other at a. The former
was believed to be that of woman.
Clerk Mandelbaum, of the coroner's
Office, who has made careful investi-

less than twenty persons buried under

The Noted United States Deputy Marshal
KILLED By One of the Dalton Gang-Hs
Kills His Murderer.
KISGFIsHER, Ok, Aug. &C L.
Short, deputy United States marshal,
was shot and killed yesterday, but not
before he had in turn shot and killed
Charles Bryant one of the notorious
Dalton gang.
The double tragedy occurred at Wau-
komis, n small station on the Rock
Island railway between Hennessey and
Enid, |. Il.
Short was on his way to Wichita with
Bryant Near Waukomis the prisoner
secured Shorts revolver and shot Short
twice.
Short secured his Winchester and in
turn shot Bryant
Both men died inside of two minutes
Short was a we'll known character In
the southwest, having made a reputa-
ton as a brave officer in the Stevens
county (Kan troubles In 1883. He had
the name OF being n dead shot and
without fear Bryant was a member
Of the Dalton gang and was supposed
TO have assisted in the recent train rob
berry at Wharton. Ok. Saturday he
went to IIennessey for supplies and was
captured.
The Dalton gang was seen yesterday
In the vicinity of Hennessey and parties
left here in the afternoon on their trail.
When Short left on this trip his last
words were that he was going after n
bad man and would run no risks that
were unnecessary. "He will kill
rather than be killed, and know it, I"
he concluded, but there have been
such men taken"
Shorts words were spoken earnest
ly, though little attention was paid TO
them at the time.

look as IL there were additional ground
for belief that Clarke Woodman, who

best Of shape at the time of his death.

Commander Webb furnishes the fol-
lowing statistics in advance from his

new camps with 10, $40 members were
mustered in. The actual membership
OF the order to date is l50,O The or
der founded In 1881, was first officially
recognized In August, 1859, by the
Grand Army and has since grown very
rapidly.
The age limit for members will be
raised from IS TO 81. Then the military
feature will be divorced from the civic
feature so it will bear about the same
relation to the order as the military de-
gree of the Knights OF Pythias does to
the subordinate lodges This step, 1t
Is believed. will greatly aid in making
the order more popular. This has been
christened Camp Webb, and Is already
largely populated. The commandery
