WATER BOARD
MEETING,

At the Water Board meeting yes
terday afternoon, the reply Of Will
liam S. Hilles, the boards attorney
relative to the nee ,ssity Of a bono
being filed in the Weldin case. The
secretarywas instructed TO forward
the letter TO Mayor Fisher. Presi.
dent Belts refused to diyulge the
contents Of the letter in as much as
the mayor had not received it.
The proposed Barley Mill dam was
discussed and President Belts said
the Park Commission appeared to he
going ahead in the matter without
conferrng with the Water Board.
lie said he did not favor the cor
Strllction Of new dam.
President Belts said lie had made
a careful calculation and found that
the sum of $3.50 expended for coal
would give the same results as a
storage reservoir Of 3O0.0 900.
DR.. Pyle said he had favored ; the
construction of new dam owing to
the fact tnat it would enable the
board to have greater volume Of
water on hand during dry weather.
President Belts explained to him
that III new dam was built further
down the stream, it would be I'M
possible to get more than 800. 600
gallons. BY building concrete front
on the present one it will serve every
purpose, and the cost would only
be about onc-third of what it would
cost to erect new one. No action
was taken in the matter by the board,
it being discussed informally.
Chief Engineer Bond reported that
he had found that the cost of water
service at Twentv-third and West
streets would be about $500. About
40 feet of pipe would be required.
The .cosL Of service at Nineteenth
and 'Tatnall streets would be $3.50.
and 30 feet of pipe would Oe requir-
ed. The applications were made at
the meeting last week. Action was
deferred.
An application for Il mctcrat No.
S39 Market Street was made by ID.
B. Jones. lie was informed that he
would be compelled to pay schedule
rates until July |, which he agreed
to do.
A communication was read from
the llil!cs and Jones Co. asking that
the water rent on six buildings own
cd by them Oh East Ninth street be !
reduced from one year to three months
as the buildings in question are being
razeh. Mr.. Belts said he favored |
such Il reduction if the buildings were
torn down by April !, and the mat
ter will be investigated.
Applications from L. S. DUPONT for
water service at his green house near
the button works, in South Whining.
ton and from Charles 4. Sparks on
l.. street between Chnrch and Locust
were referred to Chief Engineer
Bond.
An application from n. II. Cloud
for water for houses at Twcnty-tlird
and Pine streets caused Il general dis.
cusson. Mr.. Belts said that while
the Water Department was anxiou,
to supply all with water: in cases
where the grade made extra diggin g
necessary, the department should he

The result of yesterdays primary, with

Overwhelming majority over Captain

The race for City Sergeant promises to
end with a graveyard finish,' the doubt
being sufficient TO prevent anything like
a correct forecast Of the result. The
battle has whipsawcd between the two
antagonists from the very start. and the
lead would be with one for while, only
to be snatched by the other. and kept
