Alexandria S Water Supply.

The Alexandria Water Company has
recently purchased land along Holiness
run living between Bailey's cross roads
and Falls Church, including the old
Bancroft mill. The company intends at
some future date to erect dam at the
old mill and to convey the water from
the run into their reservoir, but the
main reason for the purchase of the
property. which has cost the company
upwards of $50, 600, was to prevent the
water supply of Alexandria from becom-
ing contaminated, which would have
been inevitable had the course become
diverted or the property been disposed OF
in parcels to be used for miscellaneous
purposes. It will be a source of gratif-
cation to all to know that the water sup
ply of this city is to be perpetual and OF
the same purity, and the prompt action
of the company in securing the property
described above is justly commended.
During the past few months the pur-
chase of the land has given rise to many
sneculation. Some imagined the city
water supply was about to be menaced,
and Others living in the neighborhood
dreamed of mills and other industries
springing up there. The above are the
facts in the case.

Action Postponed.

About thirty members attended the
meeting of the Hydraulion Fire Com
pany last night. Mr.. NJ. B. Harlow
occupied the chair. The session was
brief. The object for which the meeting
had been caled-the withdrawal of the
members from the organization-was
discussed and the matter finally post
poned for one week.
Mr.. NJ. B. Harlow, President of the
company, this morning received the fol-
lowing communication from the Fire
Wardcns. 1t was transmitted through
Mr.. G. w. Pettey, Chief Engineer:
Alexandria, Va, Sept. 4, 1908.
Hon. NJ. b. Harlow, President Hy-
draulion S. F. f. Company, Alexan-
dria, Va.
Dear Sir At meeting of the

andria, Va, held Sept. /, 1908, the
board decided that they wished to be
notified officially by your company if it
be the intention of the Hydraulion
Company to perform in the future the
duties lot which your OOhlP ahy hlo 0ONii
organized, and for which the City Of
Alexandria has provided certain equip
ment; namely, house, apparatus, etc.
For the purpose Of making necessary ar
rangements for the protection OF prop
erty in the City of Alexandria III case of

Yours respectfully
/. NJ. RIsHEILL,

gineer and said the company would re-

Object to the Gates.

Workmen ofthe Washngton-Southern
Railway Company arrived here this
morning and proceeded to make ex-
cavstions for placing gates at the inter
section of Cameron and Fayette streets.
The men had not been at work long be-
fore Mrs. Moun6oy, owner ofthe property
on the southwest corner, entered yigor-
GUS protest and she invoked the aid of
the police to stop all further procedure.
In the meantime Mrs. Pullman and Mrs.
Ryan, owners of the property on the
northwest and southeast corners, wed
with the frst-named lady in opposing
the placing of the gates on their respec-
tive corners. The contractor for the
work stopped his men from further
operations and communicated with the
Mayor who ordered a temporary delay
in the work until the City Engineer
could appear on the scene and satisfy
himself that the gates were to be erected
according to law. Mr.. Dunn upon
hearing the objections said he could take
no action in the matter, so long as the
terms of the ordinance we're being COM
piled with, and the work will conse-
quenly proceed. There is but one
course for the property-owners to pur-
sue, and that is to procure an injunction
from the Judge of the Corporation Court
restraining the company from erecting
the gates according to their present
corner to corner-as the
company is proceeding under an ordi-
nance of the City Council. 1t is said
that the owners of the property want
the gates placed on both sides of the
railroad track and not from curb to curb |
as purposed by the company. Owners
Of property at Cameron and Henry |
streets have announced their intention
Of protesting against the erection of the
purposed gates on their respective
corners.

The Langley Airship.

The prospective launching yesterday
afternoon of Professor Langley's big aero
drome was abandoned at 4 O'Clock, after
the port propeller, revolving about 600
times per minute, had wrecked itself
among the rods and bars of the machine.
Both blades of the propeller were torn to
small pieces, and one Of the main sup
porting rods Of the airship was bent to
right angle Other slight damage was
done. The accident was the result OF a
change occurring in some unexplained
manner in the orbit of the blades. But
for the prompt action of Professor Manly,
who was in the navigator's car, in shut
ting off his engine the aerodrome might
have been hurled from the superstruc-
ture and entirely wrecked. At the time
of the accident the newly repaired engine
was being tested. ltworked much better
than it did Thursday, and the accident
was very distressing to the experts, who
greatly desired a test either Yesterday
afternoon or this morning. After inspect
ing the damage Professor Langley decid'
eli to return to Washington. The ma
chine may be repaired by Monday.

Fight on an Excursion Steamer.

Thrilling scenes, it is said, were en-
acted on the steamer Jane Mosely on
her trip from Glymont on Thursday
night. The steamer had been chartered
to carry the colored Odd Fellows of this
city and their friends on an excursion.
Large crowds went down the river on
the several trips Of the boat. On the
last trip up the dynamo which furnishes
the electric light refused to work and
in the darkness fight ensued, during
which several of the participants were
more or less injured. A colored woman
named Brookes used a beer bottle upon
the head of a colored female named
Dudley, with terrible effect and when
the boat landed here the injured woman
presented a sicking sight with blood
cascading down her face and shoulders.

Great Falls Power Company.

Acting Secretary Oliver, of the War
Department, upon the recommendation
of General Gillepsie, chief of engineers,
has approved the license of the Great
Falls Power Company to build dam
above Great Falls connecting with the
government dam at the intake Of the
Washington aqueduct. This makes pos
sible the development of the power nee
essary to operate the proposed electric
railway from Washington to Great Falls
on the Virginia side of the Potomac and
will probably bring about the construc-
ton of a dam capable of furnishing
power enough to supply light and mo-
tive power to a city many times the size
of Washington. The power company
purposes constructing a long power ca,
nal through which the water collected
by the great dam will be directed along
the Virginia shore of the Potomac.

The Suspicion Against Simmons.

The police are still exerting them
selves in efforts to unravel the mystery
surrounding the death of Frederick
Dahl, the Norwegian sailor. While
there are no new developments in the
case, Edgar Simmons, the negro who is
suspected of having murdered Dahl, is
still awaiting further investigation. The
police believe the negro wore a sweater
on the night that Dahl disappeared and
that the description of the sweater cor
responds with that of the one found in a
satchel which the police found at the
secondhand store of @. Nj. Griffin,
where it was left by Simmons shortly be-
fore his arrest.
After the above was in type acting
Chief Knight and Officer Gill accOsted a
colored man named Joseph Smallwood,
who lives on 0xon Hill, Nd, opposite
this city, and in answer TO queries and
descriptions from the officers Smallwood
said he was satisfied he knew the suspect
ed darkey. They accompanied Messrs.
Knight and Gill to the station house and
when confronted with the negro immedi-
ately recognized him as William Sims, one
of his neighbors. The prisoner pretend
ed he did not know Smallwood, but the
latter persisted that he did and said they
lived on adjoining farms. Smallwood
said Sims knocked a colored man named
John Thompson down on one occasion
and robbed him, for which ofense he
ran away from his native home. He
says he had brother who was hanged
for murder recently. Sims's father is
local preacher. John Thompson is we'll
known to many in this city.
