AT ANNAPOLIS

By The United Press.


ANNAPOLIS, Nd. Aug. Admiral
Count Togo, hero Of the battle Of the
Sea Of Japan and Nippons greatest
sea fighter, has accomplished his de-
sired wish visit to the United States
Naval Academy in Annapolis.
Admiral Togo and his official party
arrived in a special car from Wash
ington, shortly afternoon today, every
official and social courtesy was ex-
tended to them Apparently there
was no fear that anything the Japa-
nese admiral might see would in fu-
ture years be Of disadvantage TO the
United States government.
At the academy Togo was greeted
by Captain J. II. Gibbons, superinten-
dent, his aide and a number OF rank
ing officers He was shown over
every department in Uncle Sans
naval school Of instruction and every
thing freely explained to him. The
Japanese party lunched with Super
intendent Gibbons and then made an
inspection of two Of the famous ships
Of the American navy-the Hartford
Farragut's flagship at Mobile Bay, and
the Olympia, from which Dewey di-
rected the battle of Manila Bay.

REPORT COMES AS
VOICE FROM GRAVE

Like a voice from the grave came
the report TO the Board of Water
Commissioners today Of Charles A.
Hogue who as an expert consulting
engineer was employed by the Water
Department to look over the entire
plant of the citys water supply and
make suggestions whereby the city
could save money in furnishing the
citizens water. Mr. Hogue has been
employed to do the work and after he
had completed his survey and made
out his report he died in Philadelphia
on June 2S.
According to Mr.. Hogue's diagnosis
prepared before his death the city can
save S3,100 per pump by using water
power instead of steam in doing its
pumping Of the city water supply.
He said that plunger type Of dis
placement pump. while it has a higher
first cost is cheaper in the end by
SO 100. The centrifugal pump, accord
ing to his estimate, had but so per
centage of efficiency, while one of the
plunger type has a percentage of 50
Mr.. Hogue explained this by saying
that the centrifugal is affected by the
rise and fall OF the tide in Brandy
wine Creek.
The price Of the installation Of the
plunger type. he reported. would b'
about S22.315. while It would cosi
but about S16.330 The saving o.
S3,100 would be in full in the plungel
| type.
Chief Engineer Kienle was instruct
ed to draw up specifications and asl
for bids for the necessary ,pumpinl
equipment for the Brandywine pump
/ ing station.
