INDIANA DAILY TIMES.

the other morning sat a mar who seven
teen years ago was roundly abused by
the newspapers for his part in the carry
ing forward of the Catskill project. His
part was nothing less important than the
appointment of the first board Of water
supply commissioners as he was mayor
of New York at the time, and his name
is George E. Mcclellan. It SO happened
that Mayor Mcclellan broke with Charles
F. Murphy, leader of Tammany Hall and
although Democrat, he had been in po-
litical eclipse since finishing his term
as mayor. However, during the World
War he was commissioned a major IN the
ordnance department, showing a mill
tary heritage. being the son Of Gen. Nc
Clellan Of the Union army in the Civil
War He has a beautiful country home
THE Water Tower" at Princeton, where
he Is professor at the university on the
subjects of economics and history. As
professor Mcclellan, leaning across the
aisle in the bus, asked after various re-
porters who once covered the city hall
there came dry smile to his clean-cut
features when 1 asked If he ever felt any
misgivings over his part in the planning

are the waters Of the upper Hudson in
ths Adirondack Mountains, to which peo-
pls SO frequently advert without appre-
citation of the cost Of developing and
conveying these waters to the metropolis
For surveys, real estate, construction,
er cheering and general supervision and
ali other items except interest on the
bonds the local cost Of the completed
Catskiu water system-initiated by
Mayor McClellan-would be about S179,-
800, 900. To April 1. 1922, the sum of
S161, 7S4 1924 had been expended. It ranks
among the most notable enterprises ever
carried out by any city, State or nation.
For the variety. complexity and difficulty
Of the physical problems involved, as well
as for its magnitude and cost, it stands
with the great canals, with the transcon-
tincntal railway lines and with New
York's own subway system.
That portion of this huge water sup
ply system which has been completed
constitutes more than three-quarters OF
the whole that is planned and includes
the Ashoken reservoir, an artificial lake

mains in Manhattan is 1913 miles, and in
Brooklyn, forty five miles, tapped by
1000 high pressure hydrants.
The combined New York City water
supply with average rainfall in the water
sheds can be counted upon to yield $780,
600, 900 gallons daily or 1870 100000 gal
Ions more than is now being required.
1t comes down to the city by three aque-
ducts: the old Croton, thirty eight miles
long; the new Croton, thirty-three miles
long, and the great Catskill aqueduct, ex-
tending ninety two miles from the Ash
oxen reservoir, fourteen miles west of
Kingston, N. Y, and passing under the
Hudson river, finally reaching the north
ern boundary of the metropolis. Three
ffths Of the water used is Catskill and
two-fifths Croton. Catskill water is be-
ing used to nearly the full present ca
pacity of the Catskill aqueduct because
through its greater pressure 1t consti-
tutes the least expensive of the supplies
70 operate.
Thus we find Gotham chiefly dependant
upon its Catskill water, its latest and
largest source of supply.

Of the Catskill water supply. "only
this" he said, I'VE underestimated, rather
than overestimated, the city's future
needs"
In New York City continues to increase
in population and to use water at the
same or a greater rate per person than
now, 1t is, Of course, question of sim
pie mathematics to compute the date
when the city's demand for water will
have outstripped the capacities Of its
present system. Where the next sup
ply can be obtained cannot now be safely
predicted. Possibly the legal obstacles
which bar New York City from Suffolk
County, on Long Island, can be removed,
and, similarly, water physically obtain
able at moderate cost in Connecticut and
Massachusetts, may be made available
through the overcoming of interstate re.
strictions. Difficulties in the roundout
valley may be surmounted, and the Cats
kill Creek water, although Of less salts
factory qualities and expensive to OBJ
tain, may become the most feasible sup
ply at some distant date. Beyond these

Cops Find Stolen
Garb in Automobile

Clothing found IN a stolen automobile
on Harding street is held by the police
today. The police believe the clotohing,
from twenty to thirty suits, were those
stolen from the S. B. Prevo & Sons
store at Greencastle early yesterday. The
car is owned by John T. TantOn, 2l0S
North Meridian street, and was stolen
from IN front Of his home Tuesday night.
The car was deserted By the thieves at
Harding street and Troy avenue. The
police believe the thieves failed to reach
the city before daylight yesterday morn
ing and deserted the automobile with
the clothing in it.

Catskill aqueduct running for nearly a
hundred miles under rivers and valleys,

a three years Buffalo, Cincinnati or
San Francisco; or in four years a Bal

populate the State of Rhode Island.
