To Receive Relief.
The residents CT the city who live In
the vicinity of Thirty-iafth avenue and
Lakeside sre TO receive water relief. Inc
matter has been before the city council
for some .lrse and furnished the chief
subject for discussion at meeting OF Inc
france committee ard the fire and water
ef5gnmittee held at the ciiy nan
yesterday morning The residents Of
the district have for years centendsd that
they are badly in need Of a better water
supply. II WAS in that district thar the
handsome residence Of Lawyer VIII III.
Thompson was destroyed by fire several
weeks ago. and II Is the contention oil the
residents that if there had been fairy
good water supply at the time the resi-
aence would have been saved As IT was.
sne structure was a total loss. The eaty
will not spend the amount OF money IN
giving the desired relief that has been
advised By Supt Youngs. OF the water
department. His piaa is regarded as an
excellent one, bur involves the expendi-
fslre Of considerable money. The city Is
nearing the end Of the fiscal year and
there Is very little rnoaey In the various
funds. II the plan advised had been ac-
eepted Ii would have been necessary 10
pay a portion of the expense out Of next
years levy The council Is opposed to
g.
csssion at yesterdays meeting James
said: II am not in favor of mortgaging
rex. years tax levy TO pay for work 10
be done this year
When the committee took up the matter
Mr.. Herman, chairman OF the committee
on fire and water, who strongly favored
the original plan. submitted Mr.. Youngs'
communication, In which the superin-
tendent explained his plan. His recon-
mendations were embodied in the follow
Ing language:
''First-To lay an eight-inch water
main. commencing at a point in East
Union street and Twentieth avenue
thence east on East Union street to Tbir.
ts-fifth avenue: and a six-inch main on
1hIrty-fifth avenue. north and south. 10
end OF grade: connect with a four-inch
main on Thirty-hfth avenue and East
James street. and the placing Of six four
inch hydrants, a total cost of $S.6is.10. i
would recommend that this plan be
adopted. as II Is on line of permanency
over graded streets and will give a good
circulation.
''Second-To lay six-inch main. COM
mencing at East Terrace street and Thsr-
tenth avenue, thence east on East Ter
race street 10 Thirty-second avenue.
thence north on Thirty-second avenue to
Fast James street. thence east on East
James street to Thirty-fifth avenue, and
thence north on Thiriy-fifth avenue TO
end Of grade, and TO place six four-inch'
hydranfs, at a cost of 81. s23f5. There is
a portion OF this line that will be over
ungraded streets and would end mp with
dead water. whiis the first plan will give
a circulation. which means better water
and less friction on pumps.
There was an extended discussion over
the matter. Maps we're introduced to
show the route to be covered. Mr.. Hurd.
who is familiar with the various water
extensions of the city, was present and
n ssisted the committees In getting ar the
details. Mr.. Youngs was unable to be
present on account of illness. The COM
mittee was almost unanimous in opposing
such a heavy expenditure for the present.
II was finally agreed 10 furnish the de-
sired water relief by continuing the four
inch water main which now ends at Yes
Ter way and California street, 10 East
Alton and Chicago streets. The extension
viii be- eight blocks In length. viii cost
icss than 81 90 and VIII give residents I'm
the vicinity of Thirty-iifth avenue and
Lakeside four times the amount OF their
present water supply.
