the Tembladera Channel to San Francisco
and ad jacent Cities

Some estimates from one of the largest
pumping manufacturers in the word-the
Holly Manufacturing Company of Locks
port, n. Y.-are to the effect that for the
sum OF 100000 the Holly Company will
guarantee TO convey to San Francisco
from Tembladera Channel, through
half-lnch steel pipe of the diameter of
sixty inches, 24.0OOo0O gallons of water
every twenty-four hours, with perpetual
pressure at this end of eighty pounds to
the square inch.
And fer the total sum of $1,000 900 the
same company will pump and pipe the
water to every householder in this City.
The cost OF operating the pumping station
would be 500 day.
The promoters of this plan do not hest
tate to point out, among other things, the
financial advantages of the system. 1t is
Known, they say, that the Spring Valley
system is not only antiquated and impure,
but excessively expensive and inadequate
as well. The people of San Francisco are
paying the interest on $15,0Oo,0o0 which

Judge Seawelps Decision in Case Involving
the Supply, at Fires.
The suit of James f. Hill against the
Spring Valley Water Company, which in
cluded an interesting point involving the
liability of the company when the water
supply fails in case of fire, has been de-
cideu by Judge Seawell. He has sustained
the demurrer of the defendant company.
The demurrer was made upon the ground
that facts sufficient to form a cause OF
action had not been stated.
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1896-01-19

the Holly Company is the owner of many
patents on pressure pumps, which are said
to have revolutionized pumping methods
in the East.
In the foregoing are most of the claims
set forth by the promoters of the Castro
vile Lake system of municipal water
supply. All of which look very alluring
on surface view, and will certainly re-
pay the serious consideration of San
Francisco taYnaYers
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1896-01-19

are said to be invested in the Spring Val
ley plant, and aside from this they are
paying the interest and principal of
the cost of an army of collectors and
clerks, including highs alaried officials,
whose sole usefulness is to collect the ex-
orbltant tax and influence a majority of
the Board of Supervisors to keep up the
rates. Now if the municipality should
take hold of the Castro Lake proposition
and pay in cash or bonds for the entire
plant water could ultimately be as free as
air to the householders of San Francisco;
or at least the rate would greatly be de-
creased, while the quality quantity and
pressure would be we'll nigh perfect.
In this connection the recent report of
Engineer Hansborough to Attorney Mil
ton E. Babb and those he represents will
be of interest. 1t reads as follows:
