WATER COMPANY
FACES CHARGES
City of Elkhart Claims Poor
Service Is Rendered.

Charging that the Elkhart Water
Company has failed to carry out the
agreements in its franchise from the
city, the city OF Elkhart today fled with
the pubic service commission long list
OF complaints against the company, in
which it bemoans the pocr quality Of
service which, it Is claimed. is rendered.
The city charges that the company in
its franchise agreed that the water pres
sure through its mains would not be al
lowed to drop below fifty pounds to the
square inch, but that 1t has lately al
lowed the pressure to drop as low as
thirtyhve pounds.
1t is also contended that the COM
pany refuses to extend It's mains In ac-
cordanos with the needs Of the city,
thereby making 1t difficult to sell prop
erty in those sections in which tho
mains have not been extended. It is
claimed also that the company let's the
water pressure drop in factory sprinkler
systems from a required pressure Of not
less than forty pounds to the square inch
to twenty pounds.
The companys franchise calls for a
water pressure Of not less than 40
pounds during n hre, according TO the
complaint. and the officials OF the city
declare the water pressure during the
last few months is never in excess OF
ninety pounds during a fire. This, they
say, Is insufficient.
The city of Elkhart asks that the of
hcihls Of the water company be required
to make answer TO these charges, and
that the hearing be set at as early u
date ns possible.

Congressman Thomas Butler Of Penn

PHILADELPHIA, Jan S.-Whether

Lawyers. judges and students Of gov

Judge COhalan urged Berlin to under
take an aerial attack on England, to be
accompanied by a naval raid and the
landing OF troops in ireland. This
double attack, according to Cohalan's
reputed plan, was to coincide with an
Irish rebellion. In that event, Cohalan
IS quoted as saying Germany could

boat bases, which might decide the
war"
The white book" says that as a re-

lin April, 1910 the line Of communication
between the German government and
Sim Fem leaders was temporarily
broken, though a messenger service de-
vised by Dewey between Irish revolu-
tionaries in America and Ireland was
maintained.
Among the documents is a message sent
by DIT. Won Kuehlmann, then German
foreign minister to the German embassy
in Madrid. regarding an assignment to a
German agent in BuenOs Aires to es-

cooperate with Sim Feiners in the

DOUBTS TARIFF
MEASURE WILL
SURVIVE VETO
Underwood of Alabama, Mi
nOrity Leader, Discusses
Chances for Measure.

| WASHINGTON. Jan. s.--The Senate
! probably will pass the emergency tarIn
/ bill, but it is equally probable the Sen
/ ate will not pass the measure over the
/ Presidents expected veto, Senator Oscar
1 w. Underwood OF Alabama. Democratic
minority leader of that body, predicted
/ today Senator Underwood declared en-
! phaticalIy he was certain the bill, even
! in an amended form, would not become
! a law.
/ He ridiculed the reported possibility
/ of enough Democratic Senators from ag-
/ ricultural States Topping to the sup
I porters Of the bill to change the final
I result of the bitter light being waged
/ to put it through.
I He estimated the bill would not re-
I ceive more than eight Democratic votes
/ in the Senate. or far from enough TO
enable the Republicans, with their pres
ent slim majority. to Jam it through
over the Presidents veto.
GIVES RESULT
or CANVASS.
As the result of a careful canvass he
has made Of the situation in the Senate,
he is convinced Senator Underwood said,
the bill would:
1. Be favorably reported by the
Republican controlled Senate Finance
Committee, probably in an amended
form;
. Be discussed at length on the
/ Senate floor, although its Democratic
opponents would not engage in any
organized flibuster'' against It;
3. Be passed by the Senate, proba
bly, in much amended form intended
/ to take care of manufacturing AZ well
as agricultural interests to insure
Republican solidarity;
t. Be sent to a conference of rank
ing members of the Senate Finance
and the House Ways and Means
Committees, at which the final form
of the bill will be determined;
3. Be accepted by the Senate and
House as agreed to in conference and
sent to the President;
9. BE vetoed by the President;
7. Be relegated to the limbo Of
congressional legislation proposed
but unenacted after failure to over
ride the presidential veto.
SEE ACTION IN
NEAR FUTURE.
All Of this may happen soon, Sena-
tor Underwood and a number OF his
Democratic colleagues declared. The
Senate Finance Committee Will conclude
next Tuesday the hearings on the bill
ii resumed today. II is expected the bill
viii be reported either on that day or
the day following The Republicans
hope 10 be able to jam it through the
Senate. the Democrats viii fight for de-
lay. They do not, however, expect even
the urgency Of the appropriations bills
soon to be received by the Senate from
the House, to prevent its early passage
They are banking on the Presidents
veto and their ability to sustain that
veto. TO prevent the bill from being
written into the statutes.
Strong pressure is being brought on
them by agricultural and manufacturing
interests to force them to reverse them-
selves, as Senator Penrose, Republican
Of Pennsylvania, chairman OF the Senate
Finance Committee, reversed himself.
