WATER SUPPLY LIMITED.
NEEDLESS WASTE MAKING A BAD MAT
TER WORSE

| SUGGESTIONS FOR INCREASING THE SUPPLY NOT
CONSIDERED BY oFFIcrALs-PRIvATE COM
PANIEs AND THEIR POSSIBILITIES.
Brooklyn is still suffering from lack OF an
adequate supply OF water. This is especially
true Of those parts OF the borough which are
on high ground. In spite OF the efforts Of the
Department Of Water Supply. which has re-
peatedly warned and advised the public TO be
economical in the use OF water there is still
great and needless waste II the clouds would
only help the Department rain would soon solve
the problem. But at this season showers are
only intermittent, and continuous rainfalls are
rather the exception than the rule.
1t is feared therefore that the drouth may
last through the summer season unless the city
should decide 10 utilize the surplus supply OF
private water companies. or the water or Bals-
ley's and the Springfield ponds. Difficulty con-
fronts the latter plan. There Is no appropria-
ton for the utilization Of the water OF these
ponds for domestic purposes. Even IL there
was. Engineer De Verona. Of the local Depart
ment Of Water Supply. says that It would take
probably five or six months to Introduce and
equip thorough altering process, which would
be. Of course. absolutely necessary before the
water Of the ponds would be At for use In the
homes of the people When properly equipped
day TO the water supply OF Brooklyn. 1t Is not
a question OF remote possibilities. however but
is OF pressing present need.
Meantime the city. to relieve the people OF
Brooklyn and to meet the demands, could use
the surplus supply OF private water companies.
It is suggested that the managers of the Green
wood Cemetery, for instance. could supply 9oo
gallons a minute. "a 900 gallons hour. or
1296,000 gallons a day. from their private
pumping plant This would help the borough
provided the water was found TO be Of requisite
purity. other private companies would be Will
ing to help the good work along The city oifl-
Gals. however. have not yet considered this
question.
Dr. Black, head Of the local Health Depart
ment in Brooklyn. said last evening to IT'D
une reporter. that all samples Of water for
analysis. from the ponds and reservoirs In
Brooklyn were now sent directly TO the Board
of Health Of New-York City, and that the re-
suits were published in the weekly report OF tne
Health Department. DR.. Black added that IN
all the samples submitted to the Department
no traces Of typhoid germs had been discern
ible.

GETTING AWAY FROM "BOSS" RULE
BROOKLYNs YOUNG REPUBLICAN CLUB
COMES OUT FOR NOMINATION
RY DIRECT BALLOT

For several years members OF the BROOKLYN
Young Republican Club have been agitatlng the
question OF making nominations by direct vote
This OF course implies the nominating OF candi-
date for public office by ballot the ballots contain
ing the names OF the candidates for nomination
instead of the names Of delegates TO conventions
II IS believed by doing so the voter casts a ballot
for n candidate and thus does something SPECIFIC
and definite according his dictates OF conscience
and sense of duty. and therefore has the privilege
OF using his Judgment and knowledge OF public
affairs and men, instead OF voting for a list Of dele
gates which usually no more than voting
for a lot OF names of those who are responsible 10
nobody in particular excepting faction, a boss or
n machine
These ideas are embodied in recent report
adopted by the Brooklyn Young Republican Club.
Its members are Of the opinion that TO carry the
direct vote into practice nomination ballot should
be printed by the Board of Elections containing the
names OF all the proposed candidates for each
Office and that such ballots should be
or more OF the regular days OF registration, thus
the rent Of polling places provided for by law on
the days OF registration They also believe that the
law should be mandatory and that the same
method should be employed by all parties The
Young Republicans point to the fact that this plan
has met with great favor In New-Jersey, Michigan,
Kentucky. Minnesota WISCONSIN, Ohio and Massa-
chusetts and hope that continued agitation on the
thought and consideration OF the State OF New
York

JUDGE AsPINALL's DECISION REGARDING THE
INDICTMENTS GRATIFYING TO MR.. STEELE
District Attorney Steele is naturally much eiated
over the decision OF Judge Asphalt yesterday IN
denying the motion for the dismissal or the four
new indictments made against ex-Deputy Clty
Works Commissioner Robert W. Fielding Inc mo
ton had been made by Charles j. Patterson MI.
FYelding's counsel. The indictments grew out OF
testimony given by Mr. Fielding In the trial OF ex-
CITY Works Commissioner Willis and ex-Fohce
Commissioner Philips. At that time Fielding al
rnitted all responsibility for the repavng OF New
Utrecht-ave. Mr.. Patterson asked that the indct-
ments be dismissed on the ground that illegal EVIL
dence had been presented TO the May Grand jury
which found the indictments.
Judee Aspinan said that aside from any ques-
tion as to the presentation OF illegal evidence
enough legal evidence had been presented 10 the
Grand Jury TO warrant the finding OF the lndlcl1
ments In his opinion the matter should ne settIed
bv trial before jury. In speaking or the admls-
SION of Illegal evidence Judge AsplnaH quoted JUS

District-Attorney Steele says that he vii not at

THE UNION OF THE COM
PANY's EMPLOYEES.

Clinton L. Rossiter. president Of the Brooklyn
Rapid Transit Company. has announced that the
directors OF his company were preparing TO In
crease the wages OF the forty-one hundred en-
ployes of the Rapid Transit system some time IN
the coming fall. He was not able TO say what
the Increase would amount to, as the directors had
not as yet to any definite conclusion about
the size Of the raise.
The directors have been considering the In
crease for several months" said Mr.. Rossiter. land
IL the earnings OF the system keep increasing
month by month. they doubtless WILL the ad-
vance in wages will be made without fail Our
payroll amounts the present time TO $4,000 a
week. and the lowest wages paid to some OF our
trackmen who get low 81 D day. this being
the lowest, other men doing similar work and more

$3.50 employees the surface lines and 40 on the

ence simply to the operating trains.
1t is the intention OF the company 10 create
graded system OF paying our employees so that
man who has worked three years will receive more
than who has worked three weeks. The dl-
rectors believe that with Increased pay we shalI
be able 10 get better work out OF the men, secure
better men and keep them longer.

into labor union. with view 10 demanding an
immediate increase, but President Rosslter said
yesterday that he had not received any complaints
from any OF the men. and did not believe the
story. Mr. Rosster said that for the first eleven
days Of June the earnings showed an increase OF
81. 600 over the corresponding period a year ago.
