Water Meters.

To the Editor of The Star:
In answer to Mr.. w w. Trails letter In
recent issue of the Star and his state
ment that 'the writer maintains that water
meters will restrict the use of water and
will result In. bringing about In more or
less degree insanitary conditions" 1 desire
to state most emphatically that water me-
sers do not restrict the use of water nor
in any degree affect the sanitary condi-
tions- He further says he communicated
with twelve cities and the information re-
ceived was rather indefinite as to the pop
ularity of the meter system. Mr.. Trail evil
IDENTIFY did not get on the trail of the right
twelve ] think he can get what he desires
to know by communicating with the heads
of the water departments at Danville, Va.
Petersburg, Va, Providence r. l., Fab
River, Mass, and Worcester, Mass. I
could go on and name twenty times twelve
cities II necessary; these are known as me-
tered cities. No consumer will be required
TO pay for meter.
There need be no alarm about this mat
ter; every one win be permitted to use all
the water they need without additional
cost; the meter is only intended to stop the
waste. w. HART.

KILLED By TRAIN.
Mangled Remains Of Man Found Near
Trinidad.


Fatalities usually occur in threes," a
policeman remarked last night when mes
sage was received at the ninth precinct
station telling of the killing of coiored
man on the tracks of the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad. near Trinidad.
Two other colored men had been killed
by railroad trains during the week. one
Saturday about midnight at Deanwood, and
the other at Ivy City about o'clock Sun
day morning. The bodies were taken to
the morgue and held for Identification. The
body of the man who was killed at Dean
wood yesterday was inferred In the potter
field and the remains of the Sunday morn
ing victim will be buried there Monday.
The mangled remains of a man were
found last night about 8 o'clock on the
tracks near Trinidad. and the police were
notified. The wagon from the morgue was
summoned. and 1t was with difficulty that
the fragments of the body could be assem-
bled for removal to the morgue.
So complete was the work of destruction
that there was little left by which the re-
mains could be identified. Because of the
condition Of the body 1t Is probable that
1t will be held at the morgue only short
time.

eastern shore of Maryland and Virginia,
where they will be scattered over the oys-
