Reduction of Waste.


Reduction of Waste.
Third. Contingent upon the adoption o.
that the consumption and waste Of wa.
ter in the District OF Columbia in the
next few years will he far enough below
the safe working capacity of the existing
aqueduct to make 1t safe to postpone new
construction until fuller and more def
mite results are at hand to predict &C.
curately the date at which such con-
struction must be completed.
Fourth. There appears to be no justif.
cation for an increase in the supply
through fear OF failure In any Of the
structures Of the existing system.
Fifth When the necessity arises for an
three projects. any Of which would give
a satisfactory supply at least as great
as the present. and at reasonable cost.
From Great Falls an aQueduct with all
necessary appurtenant structures could
be constructed with such slight variations
from plans which have been worked out
in considerable detail as might be deemed
necessary by advances in the art of pro-
viding public water supplies, at q cost
Of 50 eco 900. and the work could be done
In from four to five years time. OF which
at least q year would be consumed IN
the necessary work Of acquisition of title
to lands necessary. On another route
from Great Falls, withdrawn from the
line Of the existing aaueduct as far as
Topography will permit, an aQueduct with
all appurtenant structures could be con-
structed at cost of $4.3JO.OOO and In
about the same length of time.
Patuxent Valley Source.
From the Patuxent valley an aqueduct
with all necessary appurtenant struc-
lures could be constructed in from four
to six years time. Sufficient data as to
cost OF this development is not. however.
at hand. and known additional obstacle
appears to its adoption, as the power to
pose must first be obtained from that
state. The project. however. offers known
advantages which would justify its adop-
ton as against the Great Falls project
even at an Increased cost of nearly
$l.OOO.OOO. These advantages justify a
careful study at an early date. for which
the sum Of 5000 should be appropria ted.
Until the completion Of this investigation
1t Is necessary to inquire further into the
merits OF the three routes from which Sc
lection will have 10 be made.
Sixth. Contingent upon the construc-
ton OF the coagulating plant recon-
mended. no additional storage capacity
need be provided, even when the addi-
any addition be required to the present
filtration plant beyond slight modifica-
tons in the arrangement Of ducts. even
with a demand for twice the present
maximum consumption.

At the Murray.

The bill at the Murray this week
would do credit to any vaudeville
house. 1t is combination of acts
that cannot be beaten.
Bunth and Rudd, the eccentric
dancers, jugglers and magicians, are
the headliners. They carry one Of
the cleverest and most novel vaude-
vile acts now on the road. 1t is
something out Of the ordinary and
something that the people of this city
have never seen.
Miss Virginia Goodwin and Harry
North, formerly with the North Bros.
Stock company, are appearing this
week in a clever little sketch entitled
Tanning the Title"
Jeanette Dupree, character change

has a power of bringing the audience
into her act.
Nick and LYDIA Russell have a clev-

sor and the Substitute" Some very
pretty songs and whistling solos are
rendered by Miss Russell while Nick
treats the listeners with several solec-
tions of trick piano playing.

At Local TheQters
Tim Murphy.

One Of the strongest beliefs of the
American character comedian, Tim
Murphy is that there is no such thing
the actor himself or herself wills it
SO. Mr.. Murphy does not claim to
give any demon stration or make any
expose of psychic phenomena, but he
claims that the mental attitude of the
actor toward the audience has much
to do with the latter's feelings and
manner of reception. Said he:
Il have never gone into a theater
to play a part with other than the
thought in my mind that the audience
was going to receive me kindly and
be entertained. l have acted with
this thought in my mind, and it is a
delightful thought to know that l have
never been disappointed. l have al
ways received a cordial reception, and
the happy, congenial thoughts l have
sent out to the audience, although of
course | realize the play must please
them also. 1t is usually true that if
you think happy thoughts, the world
around you will be happy with you"
Mr.. Murphy will be seen here Friday
night under the management of l.. F..
pid and the Dollar He is surround
ed by a metropolitan cast of unusual
excellence, including popular Dorothy
Sherrod and other we'll known play

and the developments of today make
it absolutely certain that congress,
upon the statement of facts. as they
now exist, would never declare war
on Nicaragua, however insistent Sec
rotary Knox might be on such action.
On the contrary, it is the fervent
hope of the men who shape the pro-
ceedings Of congress that the admin
istration will extricate itself with all
possible expeditiousness consistent
with the proper semblance of dignity
from the exceedingly difficult and en-
barrassing situation in which it has
been placed by the state departments
aggressive policy.
Brings South America Distrust.
The gentle hint has been conveyed
to Secretary Knox that in the opinion
of men who run congress, he ought to
apply the reverse lever; that his
course already has brought the Unit
ed States within the shadow of grave
and serious complications; that he is
bringing upon this country the suspic-
ion and distrust of every South AM
erican country; that it is not a digni-
fled spectacle in the eyes of the
world for the United States, with its
mighty army and navy, to pounce up
on a weak and comparatively defense
less country-and much more along
the same line
In the committee room on foreign
relations yesterday when the Nicara-
guam situation was discussed for the
first time, the language used was
forcible, but parliamentary, though
there is no doubt that the committee
is smothering the Rayner resolution
chose the most impressive way of
reading a lecture to the state depart
ment. whose ardent defender Sena-
tor Rayner has been.
TOO much jingoism," is an express
sion heard frequently about the cloak
rooms of congress, and reference is
made to 1.-The hot-headed secretary of
state"
Now and then a congressman, wish
ing to be specially caustic, refers to
the Nicaraguan campaign as "prelim-
mary to the campaign of Secretary
AAAoA III lAC lOA pl COL
dent"
Members of the foreign relations
committee fear not only that the Unit
ed States will be put at lOggerheads
with every South American country,
where great pains have been taken to
cultivate amicable relations in the
past, but that this country will stand
convicted in the opinion of foreign
nations at adopting clustering and
bullying tactics toward a weak neigh
Dor.
The spectacle is far different from
the exhibition of ''jingoism" that made
Secretary of State Olney popular dur
ing the Cleveland administration.
Then it was the British lions tail that
was twisted and the United States
was "spunking up" to its equal.

ner Resolution.
"JINGO" AND "BULLY"
SOME TERMS APPLIED
Gentle Hint Given Knox That
He Should Apply the Re-
verse Lever as He Puts the
Country in Bad Light.

Washington, Dec. 16.-The senate
of the United States. which is the con
trolling body of congress, takes sharp
issue with Secretary of State Knox
concerning the way in which he has
handled the Nicaraguan affair.
That there is a portentous split be
tween congress and the premier OF
the administration over the campaign
against President Zelaya was one of
the secret developments of meet
ing of the senate committee on for
eign relations yesterday. In an execu-
tive session behind closed doors the
committee smothered Senator Ray
ner's resolution, which sustained the
course of the administration and
sought to give the president of the
United States power to apprehend
Zelaya and bring him to trial
The postponement of the Rayner
resolution and other incidents that
occurred in the closed session voiced
sucn manifest disapproval of the ad-
ministration's general attitude in the
Nicaraguan proceedings that the hint
of the committees action soon reach
ed Secretary Knox, who asked per-
mission to appear before the commit
tee and explain the administration S
course.
Believe Affair Ridiculous.
To the elder statesmen, who belong
to the committee on foreign relations
and who are used to dealing with
world problems, the state depart
ment's treatment of the Nicaraguan
situation has reached the point where
it seems to be a ridiculous exhibition
of force. Some of the leading sena-
tors refer to it as 'jingoism run
mad"
The state department is taking
Nicaragua entirely too seriously, in
the opinion Of the senators. The de-
partment's general policy of Nicara-
guam intervention is not approved,
