It is understood that before the District
Commissioners submit report upon Senate

tilal Fire Insurance Company Of the Dis
trict, they will give public hearing on the
measure, to which they will invite both
those who favor and those who are OPP
posed to it. Commissioner Mcfarland who

ters, has so recommended to his associates,

lows:

LOCAL FILTRATION PLANT
DEBATE ON A PROVISION OF THE
DISTRICT BILL
Mr.. Grout Gives the Reason for In
sorting an Appropriation
of $YpO.OQO.

After The Stars report of the proceedings
in the House closed yesterday Mr.. circuit
called I'D the District Off Columbia appro-
priatien bill, and debate ttensued upon the
question of water filtration.
Mr. Grout explained that the appropria-
ton of $500 600 for a filtration plant did hot
commit the government implicitly to any
plan, but that the American plan is favored
by Col. Miller, In charge OF the aqueduct,
and it would probably be adopted.
Pollution Of the Potomac.
Mr.. Pearre of Maryland discussed the pro-
posed appropriation
II look upon this as matter of grave
Importance, and may claim the indulgence
Of the gentleman later" he said. 81 live
near the Potomac river, and have had some
experience In this matter.
THE Potomac river Is subject to numer-
Gus pollutions, from it's source almost down
to the city of Washington. A greater part
Of these pollutions consist of the sewage
from numerous towns in West Virginia and
Maryland emptying into the Potomac river
all along it's length until 1t reaches WASH
ington, thereby ilnpregnating the waters Of
the river, as chemical analyses of this water
have shown. 1t impregnates the water with
typhoid germs and germs of other disc Asses
which have come from the sewage of these
towns
Now. Mr.. Chairman, submit that when
TINS matter Is under the consideration OF
this House to the extent of an appropria-
ton of $50O,00O for the erection Ct a Ultra
ton plant, this House should have some
definite information, or take definite action,
looking not only to the Qualification of the
water, but also to the elimination from the
water of these disease germs. 1t IS a we'll
known fact that throughout the city CT
washington today typhoid fever Is ram
pant, and arises from the fact that the
water supply comes from the Potomac
river.
Sewage Of Cumberland.
'Now, let me say, with the indulgence of
the chairman of the committee, that the cit
izens Of Cumberland, my own town, in con.
nection with their own water supply had
numerous analyses Of that water made, snd
found it impregnatea with the disease
germs, but not so fully as the water of the
Potomac river below Cumberland. They
tested the various systems of filtration and
noted the result Of that examination, and
the result has been that no known system
Of filtration, certainly none tried by the au-
thorites of the city of Cumberland, did
successfully eliminate these disease germs.
Now, 1t is matter which the govern
ment should take hold of with 4 vigorous
hand, In order that the health of The people
of the capital city of the nation shall be
protected from the use of waters lmpreg-
mated with various diseases by the sewage
from the numerous towns near the Potomac
