The complaint sets forth that the

and il is informed hat the company
still continues to take water from
these mains without paying anything

between the date mentioned as the
beginning of the offense and the first
of August, 1919, is placed at 49,
1898 gallons which approximates
80. goo gallons daily during the en-
tire period.
Behind this suit rests the story oil

mands on the water company beanie

The normal water consumption OF
Tonopah is placed at $4,000 gallons a
day for household use while the mills
use about 100000 gallons every
