Fort Scott WaterwOrks Plant
Pays Fair Dividend.
SemiannuaI Report Shows Net
Profit of $4,000.

Secretary Root Closes Inspection
at LeavenWorth.
Says Little Of His Plans But
Does Much Work.

Fort Scott, July 19.-Under certain
law the waterworks company, as well
as other companies in which the public
is interested are required to file semi
annual reports with the city clerk
showing the receipts and disburse-
ments OF the company each six months.
The report must include an itemized
statement of all expenses and receipts
Superintendent Langdon Of the water
plant has just filed such a report for
the first six months of this year, and it
shows net earnings of $6,55l-S9.
The receipts in January were 81, 949, IN
February. $3,212s in March, 1882; April,
1881: May. $40; and June, 1882. max
ing in all a total of SO. 52S-97. The prin-
cipal sources of receipts were from an
nual rentals, meter service. transients
service, taps, and the sale of coal
There was also one payment of city by
drant rental amounting to over $4,000
in the six months period.
The expenses were $3.50 per month for
regular salaries. wages Of laborers, coal,
ETC.. amounting in all to $3,977.58.
Counting interest on the investment,
this is not regarded as a large earning
as it has been said that the plant paid
about $4,000 per year above operating
expenses and these figures would seem
to bear out that statement.
