Alarming Discovery in To-
peka's EIectrOIysis Troubles.
Electric Current From Street
Car Rails Is Dangerous.
BAD LEAKS FOUND IN CITY
City Plumbing Inspector De-
tects Many Bad Pipes.
Commissioners Will Order In
veStigatiOn at Once.

What may lead to the discovery that
a large part of the service pipes from
the gas mains in the business district
of Topeka are partially destroyed by
electrolysis is the recent findings of the
, city plumbing inspector, w. F. Conk-
lin, who has found several leaky and
dangerous pipes in the city's down town
streets. Inspector COnklin'S report will
be considered by the board of city COM
missioners soon with the probable re-
suit that the Consumers Light, Heat
& Power Company will be asked to
make prepare tions Immediately to bond
their pipes with the rails of the Topeka
Railway Company.
1t is said at the city hall that the
electrolysis effect has been as serious
with the gas pipes as 1t has been with
the services of the city waterworks.
At this time the water company is
working with the Topeka Railway Com
pany in bonding the mains and the neg
ative currents of the street car system
Gas SmeIIed on the Street.
Inspector Conklin found two danger
Gus gas leaks in the business district
One in front of the Palace Clothlns
company at 709 Kansas avenue. An
other in front of the Gibbs Clothing
company at 433 Kansas avenue. The
latter leak was discovered by Conklln
Wednesday afternoon.
Il was walking in front of the store
and Smelled gas explained the CITY
plumbing inspector. Il went down in
the basement and found that there
Svas no leak there. Then we drove
pipes into the ground near the services
and upon uncovering these leads from
the main found it full of holes that
had been eaten out of the pipe by
electrolysis."
1t is asserted that electrolysis has
ruined the pipes all over the business
territory. The waterworks, through
the efforts of H. P. Miller, commission
er. has started the work of bonding the
mains at Tenth, Seventh, Fourth and
Seventeenth and Kansas avenues. This
plan will be carried out in the resi-
dence districts late this winter.
The electrolysis as explained by ex-
perts is the eating away of underground
pipes caused by stray currents from the
rails of the street car company. In
leaving the service pipes hunting for
route to the power plant of the rail-
way company the electricity leaps
from the iron and ruins the spot where
the current finds the line of least re-
sistance.
The city commissioners are alarmed
at the gas situation and will take i'm
mediate action.
