 If this annual charge is capitalized at the rate of per cent, which of course should be done in order to make a fair comparison between the cost of building new reservoir and universal metering, the additional expense of universal metering sys- tenn, beyond the cost of installation, Is not far from $3S0,000, making a total sum of $435,00O as the cost of metering each separate building wherever water is used in the city.
 l may frankly say, that in view of the cast of the meter system, I am of the opinion that it is for the best in terests of the city that the other all formative be adopted and an addition al storage reservoir be built at the WigWam at the earliest date possi- ble. It will be seen by comparison of these figures that the cost of one plan is not very different from the cost of the other, and I believe that 1T we can secure an additional and ample water supply for the same amount of money that we would opoho III Sui tdiliuS luc COHSuulpIlOu, that it is better to have the water than the meters. If at any later time when the growth of the city requires the building of still another storage reservoir, it becomes necessary to se- cure supply at another source than at the Branch, involving a very large expense, or the problem of sewage disposal makes 1t necessary to re- duce consumption, the question of meters can be taken up then, but at the present time l am strongly of the opinion that it is more advisable to build an additional reservoir at cost of $375,000, which will give us ample supply of water for some time, than to spend substantially the same amount in metering the city.
 am not of the opinion that me- ters should be installed upon domes- tic service for the purpose of increas- ing the revenue of the city, as I be- lieve that for this class of service at least, water, if furnished by munich pality, should be furnished at as nearly cost price as possible. The strongest argument for the adoption of meters is the unquestionable fact | that they automatically prevent a very large amount of waste. I think, | though, that part of this waste may | be eliminated by some extension of

WATERBURY EVENING DEMOCRAT TUESDAY JANUARY % eo7

vote was passed instructing the city attorney to carry out the recon. mendation contained therein with reference to bond issue:
 To the Honorable Board of Alder
 men:
 Gentlemen: I desire to call the attention of your honorable board to some features of our system of water supply and some problems in connec- ton herewith that in my Judgment require immediate attention and early action.
 The time has come, in my judg- ment, when 1t is necessary to take preliminary steps toward either in- creaslng our present water supply or reducing its consumption. There is very little doubt btu that at the present rate of growth, the popula- tlon or the city in the year 1910 will De not less than 75.O0O, and the best available data that we have indicates that at present the rate of consump- ton is not far from 12O gallons per capita. Reasoning from these prem lses, It seems quite clear that unless Tn the summer of 1910, that is three years from now, we have either an increased water supply or some method of lowering the averaging rate of consumption, we shall be talk Ing the serious risk of water fam inc. If the rainfall in any summer should be extraordinarily light, the reservoirs will be drawn down to such an extent that only the severest restrictions of use will prevent their belng empty, and in any case the water will be of an unsatisfactory quality.
 If new reservoir is to be made ready for use, so that it can be drawn upon in three years, it is necessary to start operations at once. If it is decided to lower the consumption rate by a meter system, or some sim liar change, it is necessary to decide upon that policy as soon as possible. It seems to me, therefore, that the board of aldermen ought to discuss and determine, at as early a date as possible, as to whether the city shall adopt a substantially universal me- tering system, or shall make provis- ions for a new storage reservoir, to De begun shortly and completed and filled before the summer of 1910.
 have given the matter considera- Die thought, and for the purpose of aiding your honorable board in de- clding upon the policy which is to be followed for the purpose of compari- son, have based it upon conditions as they will be in 1910, when the clty's population reaches 75,0O0, and an additional storage reservoir can be ready to draw upon. The cost of in- stalling meters will, of course, de- pend upon whether or not they are placed merely upon all service pipes as they enter building, or upon each separate user within the build ing, and I have had estimates pre- pared upon both suppositions.
 If meters are placed only upon all service pipes entering building, I am of the opinion that it will cost about $55,00O, to thoroughly meter the city before the spring of 1910, and that the extra cost of maintain ing the meter service over the ex- pense of maintaining the water de- partment. as it will be if the present conditions remain unchanged, will be about $15.200 year, divided as follows:
 Repairs to meters and incl
 dentals ...... ..... $7,700l G per cent) .. $500 One extra bookkeeper .... 300
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1907-01-29

the present system of inspection, and that if the present use of high class and expensive portable water foi commercial purposes is discouraged as much as possible, and the pro. posed additional reservoir is built that the larger expense of universal meter installation, at least on the low level service, may be safely post poned for some time to come. therefore recommend that your honorable board direct the city attor- ney to apply to the general assembly for authority to issue bonds to the amount of $4OO,000, at rate of in terest not to exceed 4 per cent, for the purpose of increasing the water supply of the city of Waterbury. This action if taken at all should be taken at once, as the time is nearly up for the presentation of new busi- ness in the assembly, and before the session of 1909, it would be neces- sary that the building of an addi- tional reservoir, if decided upon, be we'll under way.
 On the other hand, should the city decide to meter every separate user in every building, this amount, of course, should be substantially in- creased, and according to the best estimates that I can secure, will be as follows:
 For meters, $150,000; for in creased cost of maintaining the meter system, above the cost that will be required, if the present con ditions continue, s30,000 per year, which capitalized at per cent means an expense of $750,OO0, making a total of s900,000 as the cost of in- stalling a meter for each separate user.
 In my opinion this plan, both by reason of expense and various me- chanical considerations, is impractic- able. These figures are only ap- proximate, but they are based on the best information that I can secure from the city engineer and the su- perintendent of water, and partially on the experience of other metered cities, and probably for purposes of comparisoh are as accurate as is necessary.
 It seems to me that the board of aldermen should promptly decide as to whether it is desirable to adopt a policy of universal metering, or to build new storage reservoir upon the branch. In case the latter course is decided upon, the surveys, borings,
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1907-01-29

land purchases. and other necessary steps should be taken up by the board of public works and the en- gineering department this summer. In case the other policy Is decided upon, steps should be taken as early as possible for the universal metef- ing of the city.

POKER KNOCKED ON HEAD AT
 LOWELL
Case Case of Territory gs. Taliafer-
 TO Results in Upholding Law
 as Applied to Poker Games With Rakeoff

An important case was tried yester. day in Judge Grier's court at Lowell The defendant was charged with yio- lating the anti-gambling law passed by the last legislature. which went l into effect the first day of April, this year. The case in question represents new pnaso OI tue Jaw. Inv uS- | fendant, Taliaferfo. had been con ducting poker game in the Shine sa- loon at Lowell, under the following conditions, which he admitted:
 ,. He had a certain table in the saloon at which all who played agreed to pay the price of 20 cents for every drink [ they bought-just double the usual price. He, Taliaferro, had an under standing with the saloon that he was to get half of all the money that was spent for drinks. The testimony showed that he had also frequently i taken the chips from the kitty, which were supposed to be cashed in for drinks, and had cashed in his chips for the drinks whenever the kitty was empty. thus showing that no regular account of the same was kept.
 The prosecuting attorney. Assistant District Attorney Strickler. pointed out to the jury that the law provided that whenever there was a dealer. or any player had an advantage eN- cept his skill at the game, then the law applied to the case, and the per son so doing was liable to prosecution under the anti-gambling law
 The jury was out only a short time and returned a verdict of guilty. Judge Grier will pass sentence at 10 o'clock this morniyg, which will be fine of not less than $100. The jury was composed of the following men: Al Hanks, Mark T. John. T T. Britt, Fred Sanderson, s. McDuen. Pete Bar Der. I. c. Standart, s. H. Martin, w. P. York, Chas. Scheiser. A. L. Lou choyick and Charles Wiles.
 Strickler stated that other prosecu- tions will probably follow. The ar rest was made by Frank Bauer. acting under orders from Sheriff White
