ElESl S.I
made to city mains next week, in
ereasing pumping capacity at least
100000 gallons daily.
These were the only DEVELOPMENTS
to-day in the city water supply sit
uation. Commissioners Hassler said
he was pleased with the hourly re-
ports during the night showing a
steady gain in the reservoir. This is
due partly to the water being pump
ed into city mains from Dauphin
and Steelton, and also to the de-
crease In the amount used because
OF the plants which have observed
Mayor Keister's closing order.
To Enforce Order
reports received by Mayor Keis-
ter that a number of plants have
not closed in compliance with the
order, will be investigated.
A steady gain in the amount of
water in the reservoir is expected
until Tuesday morning. At the meet
ing on Monday reports of the gain
tonight and tom orrow will be gone
over and the time for RESUMPTION
OF work in Industrial plants will be
decided. Reports will be made also
ON the progress of repairs.
AT the meeting yesterday after
noon j. w. LedouX, the PHILADELPHIA
expert who came here to start a com
plete investigation of the water de-
partment, made a preliminary re-
port.
To Make Full Report
lie commended the action of the
city officials in purchasing the cleo
trio pump. A plan to use bitumin-
Gus instead of river coal to fire the
boilers for the old pumps was rec
commended by the expert, but this
VIII neeessitate number of changes
in mechanism which will require at
least week to complete. Mr.. Led
eux will probably return to Harris
burg next Wednesday to make q
more detailed report
A discussion of changes in the
water rates may result in holding up
the ordinance now before Council in
which all domestic and manufactur-
ing charges are increased. 1t may
be decided to work out new sys-
tenn of water rates based on operat-
ing cost of the city water works
Junk I'm Valve
Need of table showing the
amount of water in gallons in the
main reservoir at various depths was
pointed out by one of the engineers
at the meeting yesterday
A wheelbarrow load of nuts and
bolts was removed from two of the
large valves in the thirty-inoh pipe
lines from the pumping station dur
ing the time yesterday morning
when the pumps were not running
because of a brok en-. valve. The bolts
had probably been in the valve since
the old standpipe was torn down
years ago.
An attempt late yesterday to use
the two centrifugal pumps on the
rev triple combination fire engines
purchased recently failed because of
the long lift from the we'll pit.
