partment is ,conscientiously doing
what 1t thinks to be the best
thing for the CITY," declared Supt.
Collins today, regarding the new
rate-cutting of city current to
large consumers.
T. The public may not grasp IL
now, but our act will be justified
before long.
I'VE had no chance to sign up
the large buildings here az long
as they were generating their
own steam heat, because they
could use the steam to generate
electricity also, at little extra
expense.

in operation, we can get the
lighting business. because the
buildings will be glad to buy heat
from the Central company, and
light from the city. We naturally
had to cut rates, but the new
business will be all velvet.
II want the public to know
that l had no personal interest in
the affair.

Coupled with the three council

from Mayor Fawcett that there

in obtaining an Introduction of

more than vocal persuasion in
getting the bill through. He de-
clared that Supt.. of Electric

REPORTS.

The Alaska st. reservoir, 18th
and Alaska, is once more in dan
ger of collapsing and wiping out
the 200 or 800 small homes that
lie clustered about its base.
After several fruitless attempts
this summer to stop leaks in the
big bowl, Water Supt. Paul Saw
idge reported to the council to-
day that his work had been of no
avail and that the reservoir was
still a menace to human life,
The council took steps immedi-
ately to drain the big tank and
spend 1000 to install an entire
new floor in it.
The reservoir, supplying water
to the entire middle and central
service, is perched on an artificial
hill, like the crater of a volcano.
Whenever a leak develops in
the bottom of the bowl, water
seeps into the filled-in foundation
of the tank, causing the earth to
wash away. This in turn under
mines the reservoir.
Four large leaks have been dis
covered this summer, and re-
paired. II is impossible to tell
what sort of hole has been
eaten out of the earth base by
the ever-flowing leakage water.
All around the base of the res
ervoir are small residences.

WASHINGTON. ID. c.,
Sept. 1.-Germany today
completely accepted the de-
mands of President Wilson
as to the conduct of her flu
ture submarine warfare.
Ambassador Won BernstOrf
submitted to Secretary Lans-
ing early to-day the SUBJ
stance of the kaiser's reply
to President Wilson's last
German note.
The note has not yet been
translated, but Won BernstOrf
called personally on Lansing
and delivered the meat Of the
message to the secretary. He
was clearly overjOyed at the
action of his government, for
which he has been striving
for months.
In effect, Lansing said after
the interview, Germany agreed to
all the demands as to the warn
ings being given before ships are
torpedoed, and also requiring visi-
tation and search before the mer-
chant ships are sunk.
Up to now, Germany has flatly
refused to admit these principles.
The communication is solely in
regard to attacks in the future,
and the matter of past attacks Is
left open for further negotiations.
1t Is taken for granted that
there will be little difficulty IN
adjusting past disasters, such as
the Lusitania, If Germany keeps
faith in the new agreement.
1t is now practically certain
that the United States will take
up with Great Britain its fracture
of international law on the high
seas.
SAFETY TO PASSENGERS
Won Bernstorffs informal note
today to Lansing read:
Regarding our conversation
this morning, beg to inform you
my instructions are the latest
note of my government contains
the following passage: No liner
will be sunk by our submarines
without warning and without
safety to the lives of non-com-
batants, provided liners don't try
to escape or offer resistance
IL desire also to inform you
this policy was decided upon by
my government before the Arabic
was sunk"
