WATER SHORTAGE DUE
TO BREAK IN Main
Engineer Hopes, Explains
Scarcity OF Water at
south Wilmington Fire
LEVY COURT WOULD
NOT REPAIR LEAK

Scarcity of water for the fighting Of
the fire at the plant of the Alpha Pro
cess Company yesterday was due to
the break in the main across the
Christiana river. at Third street. which
supplies South Wilmington with water
it was stated by City Engineer Edgar
NJ. Hopes, Jr.. this morning This
main was broken in building the new
river front bridge and since last June.
il is claimed, efforts to induce the
Levy Court to repair the break have
failed The Water Department has
been repairing the leak. The depart
ment finished the work last week.
However, the shore connections had
not been completed yesterday.
A 20-inch main in Orange street, sup
piled by a 16-inch pipe. also supplies
South Wilmington with water and
this was the only line from which the
fire companies were able TO secure
water. A belt line around South Will
mingtOn is formed by the connection
of the two lines. the Orange street
line and the Third street line. With
only the one main working, though.
the water was scarce.
Until the southern part of the city is
built up. fire protection there cannot
be adequate. as the water department
will be unable to lay pipes there until
the streets are decided to the city
Very few streets in that section of the
city have been laid out and decided to
the city.
