INDIANAPOLIS, March 22.-The
crisis which has developed in Rich
mond through the fact that revenues
to the Richmond City Water Works
have not equaled the amounts antici
pated by the public service commiss
ion, Is going to result in the commiss
ion providing some scheme at once
through which deficits may be elimi
mated, but. there Is possibility that
no rates will be raised for individual
or residence users of water.
Members OF the commission are
pointing to this deficit to show how
close the commission auditors and en-.
gineers figured on the future con
ditions OF the water company when
the original order of the commission
was written. June 20. 1914.
Revenue Falls Short.
The revenues of the company are
about $4,000 less than the total amount
anticipated by the commission. After
examination of records, it has been
found the $4,000 deficit is made up of
two amounts. One amount of $4,000 Is
traceable to additional taxes levied on
the property and the other amount of
$500 is traceable to the fact the city
has not used as much water as was
estimated
The question is, where is the COM
mission going to make a levy to re-
lieve this deficit, and there are var
ious solutions. Some OF the suggest
ions which probably will be carried
out and which are being considered
by some OF the commission are con-
tanned herein. There are consider
able number Of what are known as
intermediate" fire hydrants In the
city, that Is hydrants which are placed
between the points originally desig-
mated as sites for hydrants. There is
some question, on the part of the COM
mission, as to the ownership of these
hydrants but the belief Is prevalent
that the city owns them and does not
pay a water rent for them. 1t has
been proposed that the water company
reimburse the city for the cost of these
hydrants and then compel the city to
pay water rent. Under such a plan it
is expected that more than $1,000
would he deducted from the deficit.
Consider Second Method.
The second method proposed to
eliminate the deficit is through the
charging of the factory owners for
sprinkling privileges. It has been
found that many factory owners have
installed automatic sprinklers and are
not paying readiness to serve
charge. The argument the factory
men make to the commission Is that
they are not using water but are pay
ing the cost Of installing the sprink-
lers. But the commission answers the
water must be maintained in the case
of necessity and they should pay for
the protection. Their factories are not
burning constantly but yet they must
pay for fire insurance, Is one argu-
ment advanced by persons about the
commission offices. And then it is
shown in one instance the present
insurance premium paid by one of
these firms is not one-tenth Of what it
was before the water sprinklers were
installed.
There is a third possibility. The
average residence owner uses about
$4,000 to 10000 gallons of water a
year. that is the small user consumes
this amount. This is about at a ratio
of 1900 gallons a month. This con-
sumner is compelled to pay 20 cents for

PRESIDENT Is PRAISED
FOR MAINTAINING PEACE
Attorney General Gregory, Speaking
in Maine, Defends His Policy
and Scores Mr. Hughes.

BANGOR, Me. September 1.-Attor-
ney General 7. W. Gregory. speaking
here last night. attributed the prosper
ity the nation is now enjoying to the
Presidents success in maintaining
peace. defended his policy Of resorting
to words and not deeds in contro-
versies with foreign countries, and de-
nounced Charles Evans Hughes, repub-
lican candidate for the presidency, for
his attacks on the Wilson administra-
ton.
"As a part Of his administration" Mr.
Gregory said, II here and now announce
that so long as President Wilson pre-
sides over tho destinies of this nation
so long will words and not deeds be
resorted to in keeping peace with the
nations until words have ceased to be
effective and peace can no longer be
honorably maintained. If this be trea-
son to the American people, let Candi-
date Hughes make the most of it!
He says that deeds and not words
should have been resorted to, and that
this administration has been faithless
to the best interests OF the nation. l
confess to a feeling of astonishment
when these Views are expressed by a
man who for the last six years has held
a position on the greatest judicial tri-
alone are effective. where no armed
forces stand ready to enforce those
words, and where those words are in
variably obeyed because of their JUS
tice, wisdom anu humanity.
What deeds has he to offer today in
lieu of the words which have kept this
country at peace?
ut was deeds and not words that
precipitated the present European war
If words and not deeds had been re-
sorted to, if these nations had negoti-
ated anu not marched to battle. II di-
plomacy had been utilized and not
force. the most foolish, the most use
less and the most murderous war
known to history would have been
avoided"
Defending the Presidents diplomatic
course in the controversy with Ger

and the torpedoing of the Sussex. Mr.
Gregory said:
What would Mr.. Hughes have done
under the circumstances had he beer
President of the United States? Would
he have declared war on Germany? Mr
Hughes has never yet dared answer
a thousand times"
After reviewing the Mexican situa.
| tion, Mr.. Gregory said:
'Mr. Hughes bitterly complains OF
our Mexican policy, denouncing it as
weak and vacillating, and says that il
he is elected President a vigorous and
effective course will be pursued, which
in some vague way he seems to think
will bring about some desirable result
but how this is to be done and what
