present, but as no funds are in hand
now to do the work, the matter was
left over, to be called up later, when
some means may be worked out for
its accomplishment.
In reporting upon the conditions
existing there, the city engineer made
no estimate as to the cost of the un-
dertaking, believing that the proper
way was to let it out by bids. The
indications are, according to estimates
which have been made by those we'll
versed in such matters, that the work
cannot be done for less than $4,000.
The drain which tapped the pond,
emptying the water into the bay in
short order, was not designed to care
for that big volume. In fact, it is the
sanitary system which is built on
Coyle street. Since there has been
found faults in the sewerage named,
the engineer has cut off connection
with the pond water and unless some
thing is not done, the conditions,
rather than improve, will continue to
get worse. All realized that who heard
the engineers report, and only hoped
that they could early see some way of
providing funds for the construction
as it was planned.
1t is proposed to construct the out
let southwark on Coyle street, which
is the one Immediately east of the
water shed. Although the sanitary
sewer at certain places is down to
fourteen, and possibly sixteen feet. the
engineer said that his plans would not
call for such depth. He recommended
tnat Coyle street be selected, although
A street, starting Immediately south
of the pond, offered another outlet and
was suggested by Mr.. Schad, of the
board, as the construction of two
sewerages on the one street would
likely result in some trouble for one
or the other. The engineer, however,
said that the great depth of the SAM
tary sewer would not have to be
reached, and that southwark from
Garden street to Coyle, there already
exists deep ditch excavation, which
could be used to the saving of the city
of several thousand dollars. The
two advantages of Coyle street were
then made apparent, and had the
recommendation have been acted upon
that would have been the street Sc
lected by the board.
The project. has not been dropped at
all. The fact is evident that improve.
ments are going on with considerable
importance and rapidity in the north
western part of the city, and it is to
look out for the citizens and property
interests there that the provision is
