The tests were not regarded as eminently fair, how- ever, for the reason that the samples sent were taken from wells where it was possible for surface water to be admitted and in a number of cases the water was known to be mani- festly bad. Sne Receptacles for shipping the water were received today and the samples were taken this morning and this afternoon and cover all sections of the city and wells of different depths, includ- ing the new well being put-down by Warfield Bros. as well as the city supply.
