Ten Million Gallon Pump to
Cost $4,000.
LOWER THE WATER RATES
M1ller's Promise in State Jour-
nal to Come True.
Connections and Building Ad-
dition Cost $4,000.

The city water department was CIV
en- authority today by the board of
city commissioners to install immedi-
ate1y a ten million gallon horizontal
pump as an addition to the pumping
equipment at the Waterworks plant.
Other improvements which will cost
in the neighborhood of $4,000. were
approved by the commissioners
Work on the buildings and founda-
ton and connections preliminary to
the delivery. of the ten million gallon
pump will be started at once. The
cost of preparing the plant for the i'm
mense pump will be more than $20,-
600. The pump itself will cost approx
imately $4,000. 1t is planned by H.
P. Miller, commissioner in charge, to
have the work completed by the mid
die of next winter.
AS announced in the State Journal
last winter. and earlN this spring, she
installation of the monster pump will
bring the city waterworks UP to the
highest efficiency in the history OF the
service. Furthermore it will mean
that in the latter part of 1913 the
water rates in Topeka will be reduced.
This was promised by Commissioner
Miller in the State Journal at that
time.
With the new pump the Topeka
waterworks system will! have daily
pumping capacity of twenty milton
gallons. The two pumps now in use
have capacity of five million gallons
each. 1t was argued by Comfn1sSiohei
Miller today that the city department
would be able to meet any emergency
with the new equipment,
The money for these improvements
will come out of the general water
works fund. At this time Commits
sioner Miller announces there is $50
600 in this fund. When the new work
has been completed the available
money will amount to $45,00O and
enough to pay all expenses.
The city now has pumping capac-
ity of ten million gallons of water a
day with a supply of liz million gal
Ions. The average daily consumption
Is much less than this

REGARDING MARKET

James A. Pollock & Co.. bankers and
brokers, furnish tho following, received
over their private wire yesterday after
noon:
Paine. webber & Co.. Boston-The
local market was considerably mixed to-
day; part Of the stocks were very strong
and active. Old Colony and Mayflower
Copper Range and CRANKY showed a good
other hand. h Wolverne El FraSlsln P,eeS h aan ane
cock and Centennial were notably weak.
Buyers at present arc discriminating In
favor Of the dividond-paying stocks,
encouraging In the face Of general
liquidatlon which we have had for the
past few days.
Logan & Bryan, New York-A much
better feeling was in evidence today,
owing principally to the fact that from
the action OF call money rates 1t was
inferred that the banking position had
been somewhat improved by the recent
calling and shifting of loans and that,
despite the large reported cash loss. the
adjustment referred to above would be
reflected by a somewhat better bank
statement Saturday than recently antici-
pated. \ Goodly portion of the buying
of stocks was In the nature of short
covering, but In addition moderate in
uuiry into the outside demand was no.
ticed. The news relative to the Mexican
situation was far from encouraging,
though the same did not exert an adverse
influence on the stock market sentiment
1t is not improbable that monetary con-
slderations Will govern the action of the
market for quite period but we believe
that the policy OF making moderate pur-
chases on the drives should prove proiita
ble as the strong fundamental conditions
will not be ignored by the large holders
of securities as a factor of prime import
ance in determining the course Of secur-
ity prices after the crops have been har-
vested and politics relegated to the rear
