NO LACK OF WATER.
Alderman Bacon Says supply Is ms
Great as Ever Needed.

4 Great as Ever Neeotos
| Alderman Bacon, chairman of the Wa
| ter Committee of the City Council, en-
tertains no fear that Savannah will ever
suffer from a deficiency in the water sup
ply should there be a general confiagra-
ton. The two water works plants. he
is confident. would supply any demand.
The new water works, those on Stiles
avenue, Alderman Bacon said, VIII sup
ply 1000 900 gallons of water day from
the artesian wells. and that quantity can
he supplemented at any time by cutting
in the old water works, which will FUR
nish 1000 900 gallons a day from the Sa-
vannah river. The engines have capacity
for pumping 100000 gallons a day. but
there is a question about the connecting
main being able to carry such supply
Therefore the quantity is placed at TO-
100000.
1t is more expensive to operate the old
water works than the new, because of
the improved machinery in the new and
the economy in fuel and other respects.
1t but seldom becomes necessary, how
ever, to cut in the old works-only when
there is a big fire. Last summer the old
works We're used. because of the break in
the conduit. Some weeks were required
for the repair of the break When it had
been fixed the new works again furnish
ed the entire supply for the city.
Alderman Bacon has long advocated the
sinking of two or more new wells at the
new works. He believes they would not
come in amiss. The wet well or reservoir,
too, should be enlarged. as the conduit
is now the principal place of storage. If
the well We're enlarged the pressure in
the conduit and, therefore. upon the wells
would be somewhat relieved and the flow
from the wells would be increased.
