RAIN HELPS WATER SUPPLY LITTLE
BUT 1T Is NOW BELIEVED THAT ALL DANGER
OF A FAMINE Is PAST.

OF A FAMINE IS PAST.
II is not believed that the rain yesterday will have
much effect upon the water supply of Brooklyn.
Nothing however. will be definitely known until to-
DAY. when the figures received from the vari-
reservoirs
1t is probable that Brooklyn is not now in danger
of water famine There is daily consumption OF
about six hundred million gallons, and seventy
million gallons come directly into the mains each
day, not to speak Of the water that reaches tho
reservoirs from the active springs directly under
them. II is thus estimated that the water in stor-
age would last for about thirty days, even should
the storage reservoirs receive additions But
as frequent rains may be expected through the
fall it would he reasonable to suppose that the
danger for the present is past.
If the officials go ahead with the construction of
the filters at the Springfield and Baisley ponds
within four months large amount from these
sources will be added to the supply. This should
carry the situation acng until the forty -eg
inch conduit from Millburn is completed.
