CIRCUIT AND DALTON IN A TILT.
BOROUGH PRESIDENT ACCUSES WATER
DEPARTMENT OF FAILURE TO INvEs-
TIGATE JAMAICA COMPANY.

At the regular meeting of the Board of Public
Improvements, held yesterday, there was a slight
tilt between President Grout of the Borough of
Brooklyn and the Commissioner of Water Supply.
A resolution offered granting permission to the
Jamaica Water Supply Company to open certain
streets in the Borough of Brooklyn TO lay water
mains. President Grout said that last October
resolution passed authorizing investigation of
the company named with two others. with view
of their being purchased by the city.
Nothing has been DONE he said. 'and yet this
Board is giving the Jamaica company valuable
grants right along They valuable, many Of
them, and growing more and more so. The
time has when something should be done in
the matter. We shall certainly have to buy this
company some time. and why delay until these
franchises worth thousands of dollars more
than they now?'
The Commissioner of Water Supply asked If
hts Department had taken any action in the mat
ter and replied in the negative, saying that the
Department had funds pursue the investga-
ton and make an intelligent report
There is special need" retorted President Grout.
The Water Department has its engineers. its cler-
ica force and should make the investigation and
render a report. The Department investigated the
Flatbush company that was included in the same
resolution that ordered a report the affairs of
the Jamaica company" The resolution was passed
