CITY Is SEEKING
WATER SUPPLY
FLAD WILL REPORT SOON
MAUMELLE is FAVORED AS
SOURCE FOR LITTLE ROCKS
WATER SUPPLY.

Little Rock, Jan. 26.-The report of
Edward Flad, the hydraulic engineer
from st. Louis, on the possible sources
of water supply for Little Rock, will
probably be made to the chancery
court in a few days. This will be
done in his capacity as master in
chancery appointed to present, if pos
sible, solution of the differences be-
tween Little Rock and the water COM
pany.
Just what his report will be has
not been made public, but some init
nations have been given of certain
features of it. Mr. Flad, after a
thorough investigation, is of the opin-
ion that it will not be feasible to Sc
cure a supply of water from deep
wells in the vicinity of Little Rock, al
though it might be secured at a point
about Is miles east of the city.
One of the most important projects
that he will report will be that of the
Little Maumelle, a stream Is miles
above the city. Mr.. Flad, accompa-
MED by Mayor Taylor and several
members of the city council, inspected
the site of the possible reservoir
last Thursday afternoon.
Complete topographic surveys of
the site have been made, showing that
it will be possible to provide a reser
voir for the impounding of the waters
of the Little Maumelle, with water
area of one square mile, and drain
age area of 80 square miles. This
would require the construction of one
immense dam at the narrowest point
of the valley, seven miles from the
point where it empties into the Ar
kansas river. The dam would be $50
feet long on top and so feet high at
the highest point. 1t would be 80 feet
wide on top and $50 feet wide at the
base. There would be an inner core
of re-enforced concrete, and the body
of the dam would be of earth.
This would provide reservoir with
capacity of three billion gallons, and
| it is estimated that an average of fif-
teen billion gallons, or three times the
present normal usage of the city,
would be available daily. An ade-
quate supply would be provided by
the large drainage area, and the wat
er thus impounded would be pure and
wholesome.
Connection with the city would be
made with a 36-inch wooden pipe,
such as those used throughout the
Rocky mountains. This would be able
to carry as much as twenty million
gallons a day, thus more than pro-
viding for city three times the size
of Little Rock.
The land that would be submerged
| is about one-fourth under cultivation
and this could be purchased at rea-
sonable figure. 1t is estimated that
the whole project would cost in the
neighborhood of 100000, and would
probably require two years to CON-
plete it. These are only tentative fig
ures, however, and it is not an as
sured fact that the project will be
adopted.

NORMAL DEFEATS ATKINS.
