 WATER WORKS NEXT IN LINE Department Will Be Over

 Set of Pumps in
 Prospect.

Coming next In the order of the $ citys departments to be thoroughly oyerhauied is the water works and that department will occupy the at tention of Mayor Gaston Gunter be- ginning with January 1. 1910.
 The Sanitary Department has been placed on a working basis entirely satisfactory to the Mayor. and came first in order of renovation because oi its vital importance to the welfare of the city. The Water Works Depart ment Is considered of next importance, and therefore comes next for a thor ough renovation and great enlarge ment.
 To begin with. the present water works system of Montgomery Is deemed to be entirely inadequate to the needs of the city. say officials, and this will be the first supposed defect to be attacked. It Is proposed to build. at an eariy date. @ second res- ervoir to guard against accident shut ting of the city's water supply at any time
 At present. the city. depends entire- ly on one reservoir of a capacity of 2,500, 900 gallons To this will be added a second apd perhaps a third reser- voir with a capacity of at least 2.000.- 900 gallons. These reservoirs will he separate and distanct so that an acci- dent to one will never involve the other.
 7 The proposition to furnish the in- dustrial plants of Montgomery with water for their purposes is rapidly reaching maturity and the city has al- ready practically completed contracts for water that will bring in more than s10.000 additional revenue with out cent of additional expense.
 To meet this demand for industrial water to be pumped from the river. the city must install additional pumps These will be of an improv- ed electrical type, which the Mayor and City Engineer Gilchrist have been studying for several weeks. Mayor Gunter made trip during the past year. while a member of the City Council, with two other Councilmen. to several Northern cities to study the

 Set of Pumps.
 A set of these pumps will be install- ed for the supp.y Of water to indus. trial plants ot Montkonery, whIie . second pant will be installed to du- piicate the present pumplng plant oi the city. The old steam pumping pant will be kept intact with banked nres. The new electrical pumps vii supply the city's water whiie the steam plant viii be kept simply as ar emergency precaution.
 The exact iocation of the new res ervoirs has not yet been determined upon. though several pieces of req estate are under consideration. A piece of land in Cypress Pond adjoin' ing the pumping station. owned by tht First National Bank. has been offered to the city. but the price. sis.o0c, Ii considered too high by many city ofi- cials. A second piece of ground destr- able for the purpose. in the opinion oi the Aldermen, is located on Lawrence Street and forms a triangle with that street and the tracks of the Central of Georgia Railroad and the seaboaro Air Line Railroad. This second plot has been offered to the city at less than half the price asked by the bank for It's portion of Cypress Pond.
 A further improvement in the water system of Montgomery will be made in the present position of the air lines That line now running on Court Street but branching or under the yards oi the Western of Alabama Railway will be changed to extend straight along under North Court Street to the wells.
 The attaching of grounding wires by the telephone and electric companies of Montgomery to the water mains will be taken up and if the bonding points can be located the matter will be regulated by tearing the bonds loose and these companies will be estopped from continuation of the practice.
 Water mains will be extended tc those parts of the city without this convenience, and pipe has already beer ordered to do part of this work. Cloverdale and Columbia Avenue and Highland Avenue are among those streets to be given water mains in the plan of the general water system i'm provement.

CASE IN SUPREME COURT.
Cross Appeal of Labor Federation is

Washington. D. C.. Dec. 30-The cross appeal of the American Fedora ton of Labor in the Bucks Stove and Range Company case. in which that company sought to enjein the Fedora tion from boycotting the goods of the cmpany was docketed today in the su- preme court of the United States.
 This is the case in connection with which the contempt proceedings against President Gompers, Director Mitchell and Secretary Morrison arose in the courts of Washington and which resulted in sentences of Imprisonment for all of them. The contempt pro- ceedings having been brought to the highest court by the process of writ of certiorari, both branches of the case probably will be heard by the court about the same time.
