the annual meeting OF the American Wa

splendid time
There was a large attendance at the
meeting, and a number of interesting pa
pers were read. Among the number was
report by Mr.. Lotion on the best meth
cd Of setting meters. Although he has
not had any lengthy experience in set
ting meters his report was unanimously
adopted by the convention.
AS the convention numbers most of
the distinguished water works engineers
in the country the adoption of Superin-
tendent Lotions report was quite a COM
pllment to him. The method recommend
ed by superintendent Lotion is substan-
TALLY that at present in use in Savan-
methods in vogue in most of the northern
the meters in the cellars and Easements.
The Savannah me ers are placed in the
sidewalk, where they are easy of access
TO the inspectors, and surrounded by a
wooden box with an iron cover.
Superintendent Lotion made an effort
to have the convention hold its next meet
ing in Savannah, but Denver had made
an earlier start and the convention went
to that city, with the understanding that
it should come to Savannah the year
following.
