THE PRODUCT PURE NOW
DR.. C. S. BOND IN HIS OFFICIAL
STATEMENT DECLARES THAT
RIVER WATER ENTERED GAL
IERIES

According TO the official statement
of DR.. c. S. Bond. city health officer.
patrons of the Richmond Water Com
pany were nnconsciously drinking
river water in limited quantities for a
considerable time, it being stated
now. after the difficulty has been
remedied, that through faulty con
struction. water from the river had
entered into the ga1leries in which
the water company's supply was col
lected. DR. Bonds official statement
issued yesterday is as follows:
To the Citizens of Richmond:
Some months ago cases occurred in
the city that directed attention to our
city water supply and DR.. Davis. who
was then the health officer took steps
TO determine the actual condition Of
the water, by sending specimens of
water from the different sources of
our supply to the laboratory of the
State Board of Health for careful
analysis This water was pronounc-
ed good by II. f, Barnard, chemist of
this laboratory. but the water had
such a great variation from soft ard
hard, from water containing no hac-
terra to water containing these or
ganisms, that it was suspected that
water was entering some of the gal
leries from the river nearby. 1t was
found upon inspection that one end of
one of the larger galleries had in
the course of time been overlooked
by the gradual change of the river
bed, and that river water was MSS
ing into this source of supply, with
out sufficient filtration to keep out
the growths of river water The
present health officer at once had a
consultation with Howard A. Dill OF
the city water works. and it was
agreed that this possible source of
danger should be cut off This was
done by making an impervious bank
along the river, across the end of this
gallery, for fifty feet After two
weeks had passed to allow all accum-
ulated water from the river to he
drained out of this gallery, other
specimens were sent to III. z. Barn
ard to see If all evidences of river
water had been cut off His analysis
today shows none of the objection
able features of former examinations.
and says: AT the present time |
see no reason why the water is not
as pure a supply as is possible to
obtain"

fpublishers PressJ

New York, Sept. %. Riots instead
of the usual solemn calm, marked the
observance of the Jewish Yom Kippur
today. In the East Side scores of
young Jews. members of soeialistic
organizations and scoffers of religion.
paraded the streets and Knocked the
resolutions of their fathers, who in
orthodox custom, spent the day in ST
lent prayer and fasting.
No business is transacted on Yon
kippur. From shutdown last even
ing until the stars twinkle tonight no
food nor drink may pass the lips of
the believer. All over the great He
brew section of the city thousands of
Jews gathered in rooms and halls TO
meet in prayer.
The day was yet young when the
taunts and jeers of the scoffers drove
the orthodox Jews TO a frenj7. Yollg
Jews paraded the streets and ate ham
sandwiches while they yelled in deris
ion at those seen kneeling in prayer.
Annoyed that their own blood and
votions, grey bearded men ran to the
streets and began an attack on the in
fdels. Stones were thrown and
many were hit by sticks. Some of
those that took part in the melee
were badly injured.
The police finally quelled the disor-
ders by calling out the reserves.

A NEW VENTURE
FOR D. 6. REID
Gets Control of the Indianap-
oils Fire Insurance
Company.
TIE STOCK ON THE BOOM
CONSIDERABLE INTEREST MANI
TESTED AT INDIANAPOLIS BE-
CAUSE OF THE REPORT IN CIR
CULATiON LAST NIGHT.
TIE STOCK ON THE BOOM
Publishers PressI


Indianapolis Sept. 29.-There is a well
defined rumor in financial circles that
Daniel G. Reid of New York, has OBJ
tanned control of the Indianapolis
Fire Insurance Company The of
|ficers of the company profess igno-
rance of any knowledge of the fact,
but none goes so far as to deny the
statement. To indicate the truth of
the rumor is the fact that the price of
stock has been rising rapidly in the
last week.
No explanation is volunteered as to
the reason Mr. Reid may have for de-
string to control the company, other
than because he may regard it good
business investment. The fact that
Mr.. Reid has manifested a disposition
of late years to become identified with
Indianapolis enterprises adds color to
the rumor. The Indianapolis Fire
Insurance company is doing some
thing like s350,00O worth of business
a year and the purchase of its stocR
investment.
Reorganization of Board.
Persons in position to know say
THAT II MI helu mas bought cOntrOi
there will be a reorganization of the
board of directors. Some show of
strife may be expected between those
who will desire to get into the direc-
torate, and those who will wish to re-
main in. The present officers of the
company are: President, John Fl. Hol-
iday; first vice-president, Charles E.
Coffin; second vice-president, Win
field MilCr: secretary, Henry C. Mar
tin; treasurer, Edward b. Porter. The
company was organized seventeen
years ago by practically this same set
of men.
Although the price of the stock has
been rising for week or more, there
has been little buying or selling of it
on the exchange. The boom that the
stock is enjoying is probably due to
the Reid rumor. The officers of the
company have no explanation to offer
relative TO the advances in price.
The first real advance was noted last
Monday when the price jumped frc(l
1871, at which figure it had stood
for weeks, to 152. This jump was fol-
lowed by a larger one the next day
when the price went up to $50. On
the day followingthree more points
were added. Yesterday the price
reached the high-water mark of les,
and there was bit of trading at this
figure.
