Of the City Council, City Engineer C. A.
Eailou has had a force of hands at work
for several days cleaning out and repair
ing the old reservoir in the Fourth Ward,
pceparatiry TO using it while the reser-
Eoir at the park is being cleaned. The
water will be pumped directly into the
Fourth Ward tank, and from there sup
piled to the city. The last of the water
in the reservoir at the park was drained
OF this afternoon. The work of cleaning
out the mud will go forward to morrow.
In this connection the City Engineer has
notified the City Council that on account
OF the present condition of the pumping
machinery. it will probably be several
weeks before the reservoir at the park
can be repaire dand reflled. The machin-
cry is said to be very weak and scarcely
adequate for the purpose for which it is
used.
Captain Ballou specifies this condition
of the machinery as a partial excuse for
his ineXplainable action in refusing to
chsy an orde remanating from a, COM
mittee of the Council. 1t was this action
or the part of the engineer that precip-
itated the recent trouble between him
and the Council, the report of the Water
Committee having been taken up by that
body.
