The immediate installation of me-
tiers. a new intake pipe to reach the
main channel OF the river, purchasing
land for the erection of stand pipe
and pumping station on the bluff, and
revision of water rates so that the city
waterworks would bring more revenue
TO the city, are the important recon-
mendations made by 7. D. Wheelock.
chief engineer of the city waterwOrks,
in his annual report to the city council
Mr.. Wheelock says: Now that the
lock is assured, the question of a new
intake pipe should be considered, for
in order 10 reach the main channel OF
the river the city will have to cross
the lock channel, which will no doubt
be lower. Our supply should come
from the main channel, as it was dem
onstrated by Prof. Smith that there
were five times more bacteria in the
water on this side of the dam than on
the other side" Mr. WheelOck urges
that the city wates rates be revised
and the meters be introduced SO as to
put the Moline plant on a paving ba-
sis. He says there is no good reason
why a municipal plant should not ere

further and assert that even if this is
so, the plaintiffs action cannot be Sus-

the evidence in the case shows that the
modified contract, if made at all, was
made between the plaintiff and only one
of the defendants of the original con-
tract without any knowledge or con-
sent on the part of the other and that
one joint contractor cannot thus waive
the original contract and bind the other
to new and modified contract. But

DARING JEWELRY ROBBERY.
New York Store in Heart Of Business
District Loses $4,000 Worth.

New York, Dec. 29.-For the second
time within three months and the sew
enth time within three years, the jew
eiry store Of Schwartz Brothers at 1863
Broadway in the heart of the Tender
loin district was robbed early today and
about $4,000 worth of diamonds. rings
and watches were stolen. The loss on
the seven robberies according to q
member of the firm, aggregates $40, 1000.
The robbery was most daring as this
part of the city is the busiest and the
most brilliantly lighted throughout the
entire night. Working during the height
of a terrific rainstorm, the burglars en-
tered the store by cutting through a
steel folding gate that barred the ap-
proach to the frcnt door and then cut
through heavy wire screen that pro-
tected the plate glass in the front door.
They then smashed the half-inch thick
glass to reach their plunder.
