Baron Eomura to Mr.. Kurino
(Telegram) Toxic, October 22nd. 1903
The result of discussions between Ba-
ron Rosen and myself on our amend
ments to the Russian Counter Propo-
sails is as follows:
Amendments to Article II and VI ac-
cepted ad referendum. Article III ac-
cepted, and Article " reserved for
further discussion. 1t is in Article VII
Of our amendment to Article VII of the
Russian Counter-pr that no
agreement could be reached, each in
sisting on the impossibility of accepting
the others proposition. The contention
Of the Russian Minister is: LIST, that
the Russian Article VII is the only
compensation to Russia for the conces-
sions to be made by her in respect Of
Korea, and 2nd, that admission of the
Jd DdlltSt amendments OH lIllS DOllll
would be contrary to the principle al
ways insisted on by Russia that the
question concerning Manchuria is one
| exclusively for Russia and China ad-
hitting of no Interference on the part
of any third Power
Our contention is 1st, that Japan
does not ask for any concession from
Russia with respect to Manchuria, her
proposal being simply to have confirm
ed in the Agreement the principle which
has been voluntarily and repeatedly
declared by Russia and End, that Jap
an possesses in Manchuria her treaty
rights and commercial interests, and
she must obtain from Russia a guaran-
tee for the security of those rights and
interests as well as of the independence
of Korea which would be constantly
menaced by Russias defnitive occupa-

STAYED One Week.

John Barrett, the new United States
minister to the Argentine Republic,
was received at Buenos Ayres with
great cordially. An account of his
enthusiastic reception was sent to
the state department by Mr.. Barrett,
but it did not contain some of the
most interesting details.
Bands played in celebration OF Mr..
Barrett's arrival, and he was greeted
by prominent citizens, who escorted
him to the best-known hotel in Buenos
Ayres. Mr.. Barrett was assigned to
a suite of rooms and settled down to
life in the Argentine city.
After his exciting experience as
Oriental agent for the st. Louis ex-
position, the quieter life in Buenos
Ayres was very acceptable to Mr..
Barrett. One day it occurred to him
that it might be well to ask the rate
he was to pay for his rooms.
"Fifty-eight dollars a day." was the
suave reply of the clerk.
Mr.. Barrett enjoyed the hospitality
Of the hotel for only one week.

Bay CITY.

Bay City raised by bonds the sum OF
S442, 10000 which sum was expended
in the construction and extension OF
this water works system. The reason
why standpipe or reservoirs were not
used is because there is not sufficient
natural elevation. Mr.. Dunbar, the
superintendent OF said works, said that
he preferred the reservoir system
where there was such natural eleva-
ton. The plant at Bay City was es-
tablished in the year 1872 which year
there were thirteen miles OF pipe while
today there are forty-seven miles Of
pipe, said water works system was not
a paying investment until the seventh
or tenth year OF it's existence and has
only been able, since the first seven or
ten years, to pay the operating ex-
penses OF said plant, repairs and ex-
tensions. $4,000 additional bonds were
issued since the installation OF said
plant for extension purposes. Holly
pumps are used. The water is taken
from the Bay and transmitted In 20, l6,
II, 8 and inch pipes; MIGRANTS are not
placed on less than six inch pipes and
are placed ten hydrants to the mile
The range of pressure of mains is from
thirty.five to one hundred pounds.
Originally wood pipes were used in
part but these have been abandoned
and now they use only lead, wrought
iron and cast iron. The population of
Bay City, according to the census of
1900, is q 1913 OF which 1900 are pur-
chasers OF water from said system. In.
vestigation shows that the municipal
ownership is not profitable to Bay City
in as much as In thirty-one years said
water works system has never been
able to pay more than it's running ex-
penses general repairs and a portion Of
extension; the city proper being oblig-
ed, therefore, to liquidate the bonds as
they mature and to pay the interest on
same.

Restless nights and the exhaustion due
to coughing, the greatest danger and
dread OF the consumptiv9, can be pre-
vented or stopped by taking German

A Sacrifice for His Country.

The young soldier had returned
from the Philippines with the bronzed
complexion Of veteran and not lit
tie pride in his own soldierly appear
ance. Admiring glances followed him
when he appeared on the streets of
his native village. His adoring fam
lily apparently shared the general
opinion, and his siX-year-old sister, in
particular, gazed at him with rapt at.
tention; whenever he was in the
house her worshiping but puzzled
eyes never left his countenance.
"Well. what is it?" finally asked the
young hero, expecting compliment
on his improved aspect. "Why do you
look at me in this fattering man
ner?"

Sarnia, Ont.

Your committee vestigated briefly
the water system at Sarnia, Ont. They
have population approximating 1000.
1t is a municipal system and was estab-
lished in 1876. The city bonded for
this purpose in amout OF 500, 900 or ade-
quate amount to purchase machinery
now obsolete) and lay nine miles OF
pipe. The water was and is now taken
from st. Clair river and the city was
not put to the cost of driving wells, as
we will be necessarily. These figures
show the limited system that can be
established for that amount of money,
If this plant can be taken as basis.
They now use the Worthington Sur
face Condensing Pump with 16 inch
discharge. The engineer informed
your committee that for ten years aft.
er the first installation OF said plant it
was not a paying investment and that
the city was obliged to contribute to
is support. After the first ten years it
made profit incre asing In amount
yearly. There are 2054 water takers,
the largest pipes used are IA inch and
the smallest s inch pipes. 1t was i'm
possible for US to obtain from the party
in charge OF such system, correct figure
for the reason that he informed US that
no separate books OF the water system
were kept but that the expenditures
were paid out OF the general fund OF
the city and collections turned to the
general fund of the city. The engineer
informed US that the cost of the entire
system, up to date, was an additional
81 for every original 81 OF bonded in
debtedness, but claims this to have
been paid out OF earnings OF said plant.

Port Huron.
Your committee investigated the wa
ter system of the city of Port Huron
very carefully and find it the most
satisfactory, complete and up to date
municipal plant Of any that were In.
vestlgated. The water used is taken
at the upper end OF the st. Clair river
very near the inlet from the lake, and
OF excellent quality. Two intake pipes
extend eighty rods into the river and
about twenty five feet below the sur
face and is pumped directly into the
mains by two rotary pumps (of some
what obsolete pattern)a and by one mod
ern triple expansion Holly pump, new
and thoroughly up to date in every
particular, costing about $4,000. The
population Of Port Huron approximates
rs, 900. The water system OF said city
was established in the year 1873. The
receipts OF the first year being $726 70
and the operating expenses S1,977 80,
the second year the receipts did not ex-
coed the operating expenses, the third
year they exceeded in amount of 1854
and increased each year for 10 years,
at which year the receipts exceeded
the expenses 50, 500 and increased from
then on until 1903 when the receipts
exceeded the expenses $24, 04S 81, show
ing magnificent growth Of said water
system, which apparently is up to date
throughout in every detail. On April
lst 1903, the total cost of the water
works of the city Of Port Huron was
$5O5, 535 30. $500 600 has been allotted
to the water works TO pay, there has
been paid $ll0, 900 leaving balance of
$1,000 still to be provided for by the
water works department, after operat.
ing for thirty years.
1t is a query in the minds OF your
committee as to who is to pay the bal.
ance of $205, 535. 80 unless it has already
been paid from said fund. If, as stated
on page l3 of the annual report mark
ed Exhibit eight, the total cost Of said
water works system is $505, 1885 aud
the total income over expenditure for
the pear 1902 and 1903 is $24 ,04S 81.
Then said profit for the year is profit
OF 4.75 per cent upon the total cost OF
said plant.
AS said the cost OF the water works
system to date as shown on page IL is
s505, 535 SO and figuring the population
OF Belding at 5000 then it would cost
the city of Bedding for pro rata equip
ment the sum of about 100000.
Your committee reports that from its
investigation it is not to them clearly
proven that municipal system is a
certain financial success. That under
the most favorable circumstances II
takes years before such system is
able to pay expenses alone and that the
success OF such system depends upon
the economical management OF the
business, the wealth OF the citizens and
the density of the population and
other conditions too numerous TO men.
