be called upon to give the informa-
ton. If any man in GAINESVILLE has

THE MUDDY WATER.
What Commissioner Douglass Says ON the
Subject of Fihering.


This is what Commissioner Douglass said to a
STAR reporter today on the subject Of fltering
Potomac water: Each year. as the water be-
| comes clouded with the fine particles Of the
shores of the upper Potomac and its thousand
little tributaries, have talked the matter OF
filtration with Capt. Lusk. My idea, and this
| is held without technical knowledge ON the
subject, is that some such filtering arrange
ment as that at Lowell. Mass, described to me
BY Gen. Cogswell, might be economically Sc
cured. Filtration through sand and gravel
alternately arranged in layers OF about two feet
thick. was used in London early rs 1889, and
is still used by the various water companies of
that city-sone eight or ten in number. In
some places washed coke 10 used, with layer
of sand over.
''One thing is sure, unless we go to work in
tie matter We will have muddier water with
increasing impurities year after year. With
railroads and their accompanying buildings
now probably near at hand from George town up
the rlver and the Increase OF population and va
rious business operations along both sides of the
river, the necessity for filtration must grow ur-
gently In the near future believe the scien-
tihc gentlemen who assure us that the fine ar
ticie OF clay in the water lately, that has at
tracted their attention as well as that Of the
water takers Of the city. is innocent in its
effects. But while the body does not suffer the
IN iustduCts uOt5. TEOHl
what have seen lately Gen Casey and his sub
ordinates will be entirely equal to the emer-
gency If invited by Congress to take hold OF the
subject, and hope the invitation will be ex-
tened during this session.
AS TO the use Of meters to save waste Of
water, it would be well 80 far rs man ufacturers,
hotels and large stables are concerned; but /
do not think the private citizen should be
forced to buy one. 1t would be good plan to
put one In each government department, not
OF course. with the idea Of collecting rent for
water, but by comparisons to settle the vexed
question OF wastage by the United States gov
ernment establishments. II the use of water
was found exorbitnnt in any department., Its
chief officer. without doubt, would willingly
enforce economy in the matter.
Though the Commissioners have nc control
OF the reservoirs, they do control the local dis
tribution. levy and collect the rents, and are
therefore interested in the question OF quality
as well as quantity Of water in their close rela-
tons to the people Of the city and District.
They will be pleased to cooperate in this mat
ter whenever proper opportunity is afforded
them"
