Use Of CITY WATER
COSTS HIM FINE
Water Situation at McAester Has
Grown so Acute as to Require
Action in Courts.

McAlester, Okla, May 20. = Rufus
Johnson, manager OF the New Process
laundry. was tried in police court on
a charge of using city water and fined
$50 and costs Saturday, This was the
first of a series of suits instituted by
the police in the last few days.
Friday night Sheriff Tatum and
Jailer McGowan were arrested on a
like charge for using water at the
county Jail. This morning warrant
issued from the police court on the
complaint of Patrolman Peters was
served on H. F. Schreiner, commits
sioner of public works, charging him
with violating the same ordinance.
schreiner was tried and fined $100. He
!. appealed.
y In the trial of Rufus Johnson it was
shown that the water was turned on
at the laundry by F. Pitman, an en-
ploye of Commissioner Schreiner's de-
6artment and under his instructions.
Mr.. Schreiner said Saturday morning,
in speaking of the case, that Judge
Brewer came to him and informed
him that the ice plant could not longer
supply the laundry with water and
they would have to make other ar
rangements, which probabaly would
REQUIRE ten days, and if they had tc
wait that long it would throw nine
teen women out of employment, dis
organize the force and would necessi
tate the sending of all work from the
CITY to be done. Mr. Schreiner theI
ordered the water turned on ther'
temporarily.
The mayor and commissioners hat
conference over the arrests Frida,
and it was not characterized by kin,
words. Mr.. Schreiner said the mayo
said he could, with the cooperation o
Commissioner Bond, command him t
30 anything in the water departmen
and he would have to do it.
Mr.. Schreiner contended that the
could request but not command ,thi
he had complete charge of the d
partment and that he was going to ru
It without interference on the part
any person,
Sheriff Tatum said his case WI
passed over till next week and that
- was held on his own recognizance tn

the water was on when he moved into
the Jail and he was trying to get it
cut off, as there was burst pipe there
leaking badly. He said he has a good
well which supplies the Jail with all
water necessary.
Warrants have been issued for the
arrest of several other prominent bus
mess men and managers of manu-
featuring establishments.
