These rents remain the same as established at the time the Potomac water was introduced, and depends not upon the extent of water facilities ved, but upon the height and width of the houses to which the water is supplied. The present water mnain tax, which was al by the act of the ive assembly of the District, of June 23, 1: is a tax of oneand one-fourth cents per juare foot of lots abutting the streets in which water mains are laid, payabie in four an- aval instalments, bearing 6 per cent.

The collections from water main taxes have been insufiicient to refund the amounts so advanced trom water rents, there being now an outstanding balance of $113,536.01 uncolected water main taxes, which Yépresent advancés made from receipts om account of water rents. The interest of the water bonds amounts to $29,600 for the year 1879, and sinking fund ' to $15,000, making in all $44,600 for both purposes. The amount derived from rents 1s about £92,000 ime anbum. Taking from this the amount for terest and sinking fund ($44,600) leaves $47,000 plus the small amounts of collections for water and fees, to pay for the repairs and other current expenses of the water depart- ment and the immediate cost of water mains. The amount is insufficient to meet all these Most of the employes of the water Maced on furlough for les, and there is general fund the amount paid from it on account of the Sinking fund for the current year.
