CHICAGO. Sept. Ample evidence
of systematic stealing of city water by
means of blind pipes has been discov-
cred in the Union stock yards. The
hcneticiaries have been certain pack
ers. and the investigation, which has
only just begun, is expected to dis
close wholesale secret tapping OF the
mains in the old town of Lake, in
which the stock yards are located

department. acting under secret or
dcrs of the commissioner of public
works. and assisted by gang Of
worknen, discovered six-inch pipe
from city main to one of the big
packing houses, which was divertinR
water from the meter
II is estimated by the investigators
that the city has lost millions of dol
lars in water revenues by reason OF
the secret appropriations Of water for
many years. The investigation is
humpered by the fact that there are
no maps Of the town of Lake water
system and it may be necessary to un-
cover four miles OF mains and cut on
every pipe leading TO the stock yards
territory to stop the suspected leaks
