Engineer Birkenbine was on the stand all
day yesterday and during the afternoon
was called upon to show by his private
books and penciled data the original cost
OF the water plant up to the time he left
IT'S management which was practically 1870
and IT was this data that counsel for the
city objected to. His penciled records
which he swore were made at the time the
work was done, showed that the total cost
OF the plant up to 1890 was 1914 ,sl.l1. This
included the expenditure Of the money
realized for the $4,000 second mortgage
bond issue made in 1888 that was actually
expended upon the betterment of the plant
approximating about $4,000 and included
the third subsidiary reservoir at the
Broadway pumping station and the intake
pumping station on the river bank at the
end of Thirty street. The record
was very interesting for the purposes OF
comparison with the estimates of cost
made by the citys experts at various
times. including the last made by Engineer
Burns and those made by the company
engineers for use in the present hearing
Mr.. Birkenbines record showed that the
broadway reservoirs cost $61673s2 Mr.
Burns estimate for the city was So 7O9.a1.
Mr.. Birkenblne's data showed that the cost
or the Fairmount park reservoir was
$2s544s. Mr. Burns placed its cost at
S2SolS26. Mr.. Burns estimated the building
at the Broadway pumping station at
*nlis.4S,and Mr.. Birkenbine's figures
showed that it actually cost within 500
Of that amount Mr.. Birkenbines data
showed that the cost or the cast and

The figures, so far as they we're di-

close to the estimates made by Mr. Burns
and that the grand total would be about

made to the plant since then must be
