ESTIMATED EXPENSE OF EXTENDING THE WASE- INGTON AQUEDUCT. At the request of the Senate District Commit- te the Distric: Commissioners yesterday after- noon forwarded to that committee estimates for the extension of the aqueduct from the tributing reservoir above Georgetown to this city; for the construction of a distributing reservoir holding 235,000,000 gallons; its connec- | on with the mains and the extension of the | Gans at the Great Falls 50 as to afford a greater fountain head.

To ineet the contingency of turning ff Whe water for the purnose of repalr, the cost | Of a reservoir sufficient to supply ‘the cit | Guring such times has been estinated. Thi | Cost includes the condemnation of land and rght of way for the conduit. The depth of this | Teservolr will, to some extent, govera the cost. ‘The point selected for relaforeing the present Gistributing mains is that from which they radiate to South Washington and Capitol Hil, ‘The mains in the extreme northwestera section of the city may be reinforced at the highest points by short connectious with the conduit, as may become necessary. The pee con- nection, and the only oue that will be nec for many years, wiil be by a4-foct main, feet in length, from the reservolr and dowa New Jersey avenue. The estimate of $21,000 for the completion of the dam at the Great Falls has been taken from the previous esti- mates by others, that part of tm work not being under the charge of the Coramissteners, and the amount may be larger than will be found becessary at the present time. LIRUTENANT HOXIE’S REPORT upon this subject says: Itis proposed to bring in this supply by means of a 9-foot conduit from the distributing reservoir to an available site for another reservolr east of 7th street west, thence, for the present, by a 4-foot cast-iroa main along New Jersey avenue to the principal mains which now radiate from the vicinity of L and ‘Streets Lo all points of Washington and George- town.
