Ingals in the elinir, After routing business had been disposed of the Chair announced that the regular busl- hess of the evening would ba the reading of (tv paper by Dr, Danforth, upon tha subject of “rE CITY'S WATER-SUPPLY to which he hud devoted considerable atten- tion. Dr. Danforth stated that he had not pre- pared n papor on the subject, ang that he was not In any condition to show tho mfcro- scopical condition of the water, as iy house Was undergoing repairs, butatany future tine he would be glad to bring the eight micra- seropes belonging to the Rush Medical College toa meoting of the Society and exhibit specl- mens of tho elty water for thelr benefit, With regard to his personal connection with the Investigation of the elty water-supply, the facts, as fur ns they related to him, were as follows: ‘Tho Mayor some time ago sent him two specimens of water,—one taken from the faucet in his house, whence it had been allowed to run four minutes through 0 Alter, the reversing of whieh’ supplied him with the débris collected by it; the other, which had been taken In the same manner from the Tenlth-OMice faucct after it had been allowed to run for ten minutes. He had examined these specimens and liad made Areport upon them to the Mayor, which had never been made public, The result of his examination had been made known to the publle through the columns of Te Crrca- Go 'TanuNE, ono of whoso reporters had in- terviewed Alm upon the subject and pub- Mshed neorrect statement of the observa- tlons he lind made and the deductions he has drawn from,them, a About twélve years ago the Inke-tunnol was bullt, and at that thne Chieago claimed population of abont 200,000 people; census shortly afterwards showed that the popniation was 180,000. Sincu that time the £8 milatton of the elty must have doubled ice, nnd the amount of sewage thrown into the river must have quadrupled; the manufactories on the river-banks had largely nerensed; the sewerage connections, too, had greatly tr ged in numbers so that it ‘Wns tot ni exaggeration tojsiy that the amount of sewerage now thrown into the river was etght Umes as largeas tt was then, Again the Fullerton avenue conduit cast the evil waters of the North Branch into the lake, where they wera carried out to the Crib.

Since the tnytting of the Water-Works tho condition of tho clty was greatly changed, and it was only a qustion of thne, if th sewage continued to pour into the luke, when the elty water would become permanently polluted. ‘This was a comnion-sense view of the ense Which could not be disregarded, Anothor fact-—nnd a disgraceful one—was that situated along the North Branch were several dlstilleriesy, ench of which kept o munber of cows—severnl thousand in ati— whose manure is placed in flat-bottomed boats which should tale their contents threo miles out into the Inke before’ dischargly them, ‘This was bad cnough, but the truth: of tha matter was that after taking their loud along the river, dribbling it out as they went, before they got half-way to the three-mile Wd the contents wero dumped into the C0, * ‘The speaker snid that he had been watch- ing the city’s water for the past three years, and. it had been GNOWING PROGRESSIVELY Worse all the thine, and notably so In tho Inst year.
