A business man Of this city who did
not wish to have his name used for
publication, said yesterday to represen-
tativs Of the PRESS that it would be a
big mistake if the Boston & Maine
railroad is allowed the control of the
Marginal way. He argues that the Margi-
nal way is one Of the links by which 1t
Is possible for the Canadian Pacific COM
pany to gain an entrance to Portland
and vicinity, which privilege 1t would
not enjoy should the Boston & Maine
railroad control the way. He was Of the
opinion that nothing should be done that
would hinder the entrance of the Cana
dian Pacific road. as he believed their
plans for the development of the COM
merclal interests of Portland would
mean much to us as a city.
The regular meeting OF the Pine Tree

FROM MR.. WESCOTT.
Why the People on the Hill Didn't Get
Water.
Portland, October IS, 1900.

Portland, October Is, 19OO.
10 the Editor Of the Press:
The criticisms made in your issue of
October 18th, relating to the shutting of
of water at the lake for two days. while
the tunnel was being examined and
cleaned, are, without any explanation,
not wholly unjust.
At the time of the shutting off of the
water 1t was believed by the company y
that one day would be sufficient for the
work at the lake and in addition it was
believed that the thirty million gallons OF
water stored in reservoirs would supply
the takers at least three days without
great inconvenience to the water takers,
as they could draw water in the first floor
and In the cellars on the upper levels.
Unfortunately for the Water company,
the water in the new reservoir on Munjoy
hill that should have been distributed,
still remains in the reservoir. By reason
OF the catching of the outlet valve, the
water was unable to pass into the main,
and seventeen million gallons OF the
water remains stored in the reservoir,
which If only part OF 1t had been dis
tributed to our patrons, would have made
their troub bles much less than they were.
The water is received into the reservoir
through the inlet valve, which is bal
anosd so that 1t opens with water coming
in, and when the water is drawn from
the reservoir 1t closes automatically, and
the outlet valve opens. In this case, how
ever, we found the outlst valve had not
opened sufficient width to allow the
water to pass into the main. 1t will be
necessary to draw the water out Of the
reservoir and remove the valve entirely,
in order that no further obstruction will
occur when water is required in emergen-
cies like thu present. This condition
could not have been known to the COM
pany b because it was the best device OBJ
tainable for the purpose. The company
admit in view OF what occurred, that its
notice may have been insufficient, al
though it was published in the two morn
ing papsrs and the two evening papers on
Monday, and was thought to be sufficient
to cover any conditions which were sup
posed to exist.
Respectfully.
Geo. P Wescott, Treasurer.
