Installation of Water Meters.
Water Meters-For the purchase, install
lation and maintenance Of water meters to
be placed In private residences, 100000:
new. On this point the committee says:
An appropriation of 100000 is recon-
mended for the purchase, installation and
maintenance of water meters i'm private
residences, such amount to be repaid from
revenues of the water department at the
rate of $4,000 year, beginning with the
fiscal year 1903. 1t is reported to the COM
mittee that the per capita of consumption
of water in the District OF Columbia is
enormously in excess OF actual necessities
and that the District is confronted with
the imminent necessity of either providing
for an increase in the supply of water by
the construction of an additional conduit
from the Great Falls of the Potomac at a
very large cost, or by the reduction OF the
amount of water used per capita in the
city 1t is believed that the latter remedy
can be applied and will be made effective in
the introduction of water meters and the
requirement of payment for the amount or
water actually consumed by residents
Water department-One charwoman at
$780, omitted.
