PLENTY OF WATER
The Supply is Now More Than Equal
to the City'S Demand.
Much Credit Due the Mater Commission aad
Supt. Shields for Their Prompt and
Effective Action.

Since eaf4s Sunday morning the city
has had n supply OF water which has
been more than equal to the demand. An
Astorian reporter visited the water works
between Grand and Harrison avenues.
yesterday afternoon. and. although more
water Is required on Monday than on any
other day, the supply was ample,
The most serious break In the system
was at tho hcadworks OF the old water
works at Bear Creek. Before entering the
pipe the water Is carried for nearly mile
in numc. and when Albert johnson.
Superintendent Shields assistant. made
a trip TO Bear Creek. Saturday morning.
he found that 10 feet OF this flume had
been destroyed by n freshet. which is
now raging in the stream. Procuring the
services OF man living In that vicinity,
he set to work TO make the necessary
repairs. finishing Sunday evening.
The water supply at present is obtain
ed by means OF surface pipe. This pipe
connects the new water works pipe at
the powerhouse on the top OF Fifteenth
street hill. by which means power enough
is obtained TO force the water over Cox
comb hill Four-inch pipe was used as
far as the bottom OF the last-named hill,
where two two-inch pipes were utilized.
These two pipes now give the city an
ample supply. and are the only source OF
supply at the present time.
Superintendent Shields yesterday hor-
rowed several hundred feet OF hose from
No ss engine house, and In the after
noon had force OF men cleaning the
large reservoir. As soon as this work
il nnished-sometime today-the regular
supply will be furnished. Hereafter the
water will not be turned on at midnight,
but will run all night.
Much credit Is due the water commits
sion and Superintendent Shields for the
prompt ana effective manner In which
his matter was handled. a force OF
men was at4Eork night and day and the
mrch-talked OF water famine proved TO
be a tempest In a teacup.
The remainder of the coping stone for
he new system arrived Sunday after
noon and was unloaded at the foot OF
Fourteenth street. Teams were engaged
yesterday in hauling 1t to the power
house. and Mr. John Burke, who is in
charge OF operations, says the coping
and iron fence will shortly be finished, as
work thereon is being rushed.

the main, however. the speech was a
scholarly presentation OF the silver ques-

himself against the charge Of inconsist-

ON THE INSIDE.
ST. Mary's Hospital by DaylIght-Its Med.
lcal Stnif


Following up the report made OF work
done In St Mary's Hospital during the
year past, an Astorian representative yes
terday visited the institution and through
the kindness OF the sisters was shown
through the department. Its cleanly halls,
public and private wards, operating
room, pharmacy. dining rooms and kltch.
en- were all "spiCk and span" and
sweet and clean air pervaded the whole.
At present there are eleven inside en-
ployes. including seven sisters and foui
trained nurses, There are four private
patients and elght In the general ward.
No surgical cases are now In the hos
pital. and the number OF other patients
is unusually small, Just before the
holidays every ward was full.
In answer TO an inquiry the sister In
charge stated that the stan of physicians
was composed OF the Doctors Fulton and
DR., Estes, but that the hospital was open
to all physicians OF the city and that
every patient had tho right to name his
or her physician. At present Doctors
Walker Jensen, and Beckman each have
private patients In the hospital. The sis
ter spoke most kindly OF the physicians
OF the city, and accorded thems deserved
praise for the work done In the hospital.
She said that rich and poor were served
alike. and intimated that II the newspa-
per scribe were so unfortunate-or for
turate, as the case might be--as to
break his leg, he might rest assured of
good treatment at their hands and could
have his choice of doctors.

Perry. o. T., Jan. i3-slnce early this

tensely excited over the public school
question. when the schools were opened
this morning Prof. Augustine denied ad-
mIttance to colored children in the high
school or other public school buildings
except those Designated months ago for
the exclusive use OF colored children.
Exception was made OF George Washing
ton Alexander Webster. a boy OF ten
years. In whose name mandamus pro-
ceedings were brought three months ago

WILLIAM
Did Not Mean to Threaten War
Against England.
MESSAGE ONE OF SYMPATHY
Interest Ia Great Naval Preparations. How
ever. cOatiaaes to Absorb the Public
Mind ia Germany.

| Copyrighted. 1895, by Associated Press.)
London, Jan. l2-It seems pretty well
established In the public mind that En-
peror William did not mean to threaten
war upon England by his message OF
sympathy to President Kruger, OF the
Transvaal and the reports which were
circulated a few days ago OF the Euro
pean alliance back OF Germany and
against England find little credence. It
seems to be accepted that the German
emperor simply Intended to express his
opinion OF the Jameson raid In that mes
sage and the temporary sentiment Of lrri-
tation which II caused him. This Is the
general feeling. apparently. OF the public
mind. and those organs OF public opinion
which are in touch with the government
have undoubtedly sought to deepen this
impression. But this sti1l leaves the un-
explained and uncontradIcted assertion
that the German government did apply to
Portugal for permission to pass marines
through Portuguese territory at Delagoa
Bay to the TransvaaI: nor does IL ex-
plain the unflagging preparations OF war
material and equipment Of war forces In
England. The first feeling OF assurance
over. better situation IN the relations
with Germany Ia met by notes OF warn
ing that there are still possible seeds Of
much rancor and danger in the situation
In the Transvaal. and the Venezuelan
question is. after all, not settled. nor
any basis agreed upon for its settlement.
Interest In the great naval preparations,
however. continue to absorb the public
mind. A report which has been circulated
that the government intends to mobilize
the volunteer forces is denied tonight:
but 1t is certain that appeals from the
war office have recently been sent by
circular 90 the commanders Of all vol
unteer regiments. asking them to return
the probable number Of volunteers that
can be modified. and to state the ar
rangements that would be necessary for
doing So
Woolwich. below London, on the
Thames. also the great arsenal. covering
100 acres Of ground. is receiving constant
additions to its great store Of naval ma
terial, and activity in all departments
there Is unabated. The torpedo factory
is Increasing its output. and men in that
department are working many hours
overtime. Torpedoes, as fast as they are
manufactured. are dispatched to Ports
mouth and Dover, the former the prin-
cipal naval station Of England, with a
fortified harbor that will float the whole
Of the English navy.
One feature Of the war scare which Is
much dwelt upon here. is the harm Il
has done to the German trade. The Ger
man import trade houses here announce
that there has been a big decrease in
their orders since the scare. II Is feared
the quarrel will thus result in a perma-
nent injury to trade.

A NEEDLESS SCARE.
Many People Worried by the False Alarm
Of Fire Sunday Morning.

Much comment was indulged In Sunday
and yesterday on the streets on the false
alarm Of fire which was turned In from
Box s at o'clock Sunday morning. The
Saturday evening papers had scarcely
carried abroad their messages of the
breakdown in the old water works sys-
tenn, and enlarged upon the lack OF
water for fire purposes, when, amid the
bowling OF stiff eastern gale, the bells
rang out on the night air an alarm which
Is always source OF fear under the
most favorable circumstances. Women,
who were sick and naturally nervous,
hastened out ON verandas In their night
clothes some in great alarm, and Others
who were confined to their beds with
serious Affections were thrown into a
dangerous state OF excitement business
men, who have large stocks of goods In
warehouses hastened on the streets, and
cannerymen, many of whom have stocks
aggregatng from 100000 to 100000 In un-
protected wooden warehouses, rushed

Washington. jan lS-The house COM
