Water May Then be Turned On in the Big Main. THE PRESENT CONDITION OF THE WORK—ALL OF THE MAIN RAST OF ROCK CREEK UNDER THE G@ROUND—sOME OF THE DIFFICULTIES MET— THE BRIDGE AT ROCK CREEK. It will really not be very long before the Water is let into the new four-foot main that is now being laid over a distance of five miles from the distributing reservoir to the extreme | eastern part of the city. People have waited | #0 long, and sometimes «o impatiently, for this much-needed increase in their water supply that they are almost tired, perhaps, of being told that the water will soon be let into the | main, but this time there is no doubt of it, for the work is now so visibly near completion that all who have eyes can see for themselves thatthe much-desired time is near at hand. CONDITION OF THE WORK. | The condition of the work is about as fol-| lows, as Col. Eliot described it to a Star re- porter the other day: Of the five miles of pipe | necessary to connect the reservoir with the eastern end of East Capitol street there is now under ground all but about 2,000 feet of the 43-inch main, all of which is on the western wide of Rock creek. The East Capitol street main—30 inches in diameter—has been under groand for some time, as well as all of the 45- auch main in this city proper. The gates at the reservoir to make the connections with the main have been completed and will in a few days be covered up. The pipe is laid on the Conduit road and on # part of the canal road. It is here, however, that there has been the greatest delay and bother and that the largest piece of unfinished main is to be found, be- tween the Aqueduct bridge and College pond, & distance of about 1,400 feet. OBSTRUCTIONS MET IN GEORGETOWN. Then, in Georgetown. just the other side of the M street bridge, there is a section less than 1,000 feet long that remains to be put under ground. At this point there has been discov- ered a large brick sewer, faily four feet in diameter, running diagonally across the line of the street and which was not to be found on any of the diagrams. It is, unfortunately, just im the place where itis intended to sink a gate in the main, and consequently it has been found necessary to cut it off and, by making it smaller in the section that passes under the pipe, give a firm foundation for the huge tube of iron that is to be placed overit. At this point is another hindrance, in the shape of the first water main laid by Gen. Meigs, 12 inches in diameter. it is the service pipe for the street it is a risky thing wo remove it, but something will have to be done, and the old pipe will probably be cut off at this point and the service taken from the big main, At the piace where the old pipe makes its appearance itis fully twenty feet under ground, on ac- count of the dip that is necessary for the water pipes to take in order to reach the bottom of the buttresses of the bridge by which they are carried to the city. This, of course, takes it far beneath the new main, and in that position it would be a constant menace to the security of the latter. If it were keptin its present Position there would be an ever-present dan- ger that it would spring aleak and thus wash out the foundations of the large main, causing it in turn to break and flood the streets. THE BRIDGE AT ROCK CREEK. The bridge for the transfer of the main across Rock creek at M street has been com- pleted for some time. It is a beautiful struc- ture, so Col. Eliot says, and it will stand all the Strain that can seoaly be put upon it. Its great advantage over such affairs generally is in the fact that it does not rest on the old structure over which the traffic passes at all, but is entirely separate. This will avoid the danger that there has slways been in allowing heavy teams to cross the avenue bridge, where the two mainsare rigidly fastened to the frame- work of the bridge. It bas a great strength, both for the pressure that comes from the weight of the main itself and for the strain that will be exerted when the wind blows hard from the northern regions. MANY MINOR MATTERS. There are innumerable little things yet to be Gone. such as the replacing of the portion of the dam at the reservoir that was removed for the parpose of making the connection with the gate chamber and the setting of the large num- ber of small valves on different portions of the line for the purpose of providing for the shut- ting on and off of the water. This will be quite an operation, involving considerable dan- ger and requiring a great deal of delicacy, When the water is to be let on it must be re- membered that the pipe is full of air, and #0 before the water ean be allowed to rush through the tube there must be some way of ketting that air out, otherwise the pressure would become so t thas the main would burst. In order to accomplish this there are d at all the high points along the line valves, which serve to let the air as the water comes rushing, push- ing. grinding along. Then, too, the water must be let in at a slow enough rate to make the pressure uniform at all points instead of coming suddenly at one point. There is an- other kind of air valve called the vacuum valve. This is intended to provide for the let- ting in of the air when the pipe is emptied, the process being just the reverse of the other. ‘Then there are “blow-offs,” which are holes and yalves in the ma:n at the low points to let the water off in these operations. In addition to all these things there are a great many con- nections to be made with the existing mains anda host of details that are incident to the closing up of such a large work. PERHAPS IN SIX WEEKS. In view of the extreme uncertainty of the weather chances Col. Eliot hesitates about making any promises that contain a date for the final opening of the m: uuless the weather be exc will be able to turn the water on from the reservoir within six weeks, but he does not State that as a fact To all inquiries on the subject he says, jokingly, that he hopes to hear the water running inside of the pipes by the ist of July. LEAKS MAY BE FOUND. But after the water is turned on there may be some delays, although every effort will be made to avoid them. Their most probable cause would be the leaks that are likely to be found in the main. It would be little rt of miraculous if in all of the two thousand joints that have been made in the five miles of pipe there should not be a leak. In view of this danger the earth over the trenches will not be disturbed for some time after the water has been turned on. The ground will be carefully gone over frequently and scanned closely to detect the first sigus of a leak, which would be- come apparent almost immediately through the water that would find its way to the surface. Of course it is the desire of the engineers to avoid the necessity of shutting off the water unless it is found to be absolutely imperative, for the operation is so dangerous and the inconvenience to the people is so great that if povsible a water main is Lever emptied. CASUALTIES, But the work on the tube has, though very ®uccessful, been attended with some pain- fal accidents and bas been the cause of the death of one laborer. He was working at the DELICIOUS.

Some Notes of the Preparations for the Coming Building Season. HANDSOME BUSINESS IMPROVEMENTS TO BE MADE—ACTIVE OPERATIONS ANTICIPATED IN THE SUBURRS—OTHER MATTERS OF INTEREST IN AND OUT OF THE CITY. Some extensive business improvements will be made during the coming season. Old build- ings will be removed and new ones grected in their places to accommodate the expanding demands of the business interests of the city. The proposea erection of several large office buildings has been mentioned in Tae Star and in one or two instances the work has already been begun. Plans are being prepared for others and active operations will be inaugn- rated early in the season. Among the contem- plated improvements for business purposes is a@ large store building at the southwest corner of 12th and F streets. Col. Henry Strong has under consideration plans for a building to be erected on that site. The new building will be similar in size to the two large business buildings which he built recently in the same block and which are now occupied by Houghton & Co. and by Julius Lansburgh. Col. Strong has invested largely in F street property and bids fair to do for the block be- tween 12th and 13th streets what Mr. C. C. Wil- lard has done in the way of improvement for the block between 13th and 14th streets. Messrs, Woodward & Lothrop, the proprie- torsof the Boston House, are constantly e deavoring to find room for ‘their growing busi- ness. ‘They are now building inthe rear of their present business place a large strueture which willadd materially to their floor space, A few weeks ago they completed arrangements which will still farther increase the capacity of their store. The two buildings fronting on 10th street just above F street and extending back td their premises have been purchased by Mr, Palmer of New York city. The price paid for this property was about #10 per square foot, which is regarded as high price for land off from F street in that section of the city. The old buildings which have been the beadquar- ters of Mr. L. Moxley for a number of years are now being removed. and it is the intention of the new owner to erect there a large five-story building which will extend back and be con- nected with the Boston House. When this new building is completed there will be a con- tinuous building from the corner of 1ith and F streets across the block to 10th street, where there will be one of the main eutrayces of the store. Messrs, Pitney & Bradford, architects, are preparing designs for business building which 1s to be erected on the ground now orcu- pied by the old structure, 523 11th street north- west, It will be four stories in height and will be built by Mr. J. B. Schellinger, who will occupy it when completed for his business. BUILDING ASSOCIATIONS IN THE SUBURBS. One of the features in the development of the suburbs is the organization of building as- sociations, These organizations are formed by people who are interested in some suburban settlement or subdivision and their operations are coufined almost entirely to giving aid to those who buy lots and wish to erect houses. As each house erected adds to the value of all the property the scale of values upon which loang are made is computed in a liberal spirit, with due allowance made for future growth. The result is that men of small means are enabled to procure funds for building homes upon very generous terms and a stimulus is given to building which, perhaps, it would not receive in any other way. Those interested in suburban property predict a very active and successful season during the coming spring and summer. While the land available for building purposes in the suburbs will perhaps not receive any notable additions during the coming season it is thought that the activity will be m the direction of improving the land that bas already been subdivided and placed on the market. New subdivisions of land will of course be made, but this will not be such a promiment feature as in former years, Itis thought that the higher prices of land within the city limits as well as the increase of railroad facilities in the suburbs will be an in- ducement to people to build homes in the sub- urbs, 4 GOOD SEASON ANTICIPATED. The active condition of the real estate market is regarded by experienced operators as @ favorable indication of a coming weason of great prosperity. Not only is it reported that there is a good demand for property of all kinds but there are indications that there will be considerable building done. The brick makers are already receiving orders which will tax the present capacity of their plants to the utmost to fill) The number of office and busi- ness buildings to be erected is unusually large and arrutigements are being made for building houses on @ rather extensive scale. Over one hundred private houses will be built during the coming’#eagon by one individual and a syndi- cate is'now jer ean for the purchase of a square.of land where they intend to erect one hundred and forty-six residences, These large enterprises, when taken in connection with the usual amount of building that ia done each year in this city, indicate a prosperous season for the building trades, A FINE DIPROVEMENT. Visitors to the Soldiers Home ha frequently remarked upon the contrast which the shabby old building occupied as quarters by the old soldiers presented to the beautiful grounds, The appearance of the building on the north side has been me ete by the erection of a wing constructed of white marble in the Romanesque style of architecture. Plans have now er ns by the architect of the new t, Mr. W. Poindexter, which, when car- ried out, will make a harmonious design of the entire structure. The upper portion of the front will be replaced with marble and a graceful Romanesque tower will be substituted for the present tower,which has never been ad- mired for its beauty. When the work is com- pleted the building will be handsome architect- urally and more in accord with the surround- ings which art and nature have combined to adorn and beautif, $$» Jurors for the March Terms. Jurors have been drawn for the next (March) terms of the Circuit and Criminal Courts to re- crank of the great derrick on the bad place on the canal road—his name was George W.

Col, Eliot thinks that this case should form an example of the great need of some law that will make provision for men injared in the public service who are not in army.

RESUSCITATING THE WORLD'S FAIR PROJECT— WHAT MR. DEPEW HAD AT STAKE—DOING BUBI- NESS WITH AN ISLAND TOWN—LADIES AT THE Bar. Special Correspondence of Tax Evextnc Star. New Yorx, Feb. 21.—After the New York world’s fair had gone down for the third time a gallant band of life-savers, led by Dr. Chauncey M. Depew, dived to the bottom of the sea, whither the project bad plunged, like the late lamented McGinty, seized it by the hair of the head and yanked it to the surface and ashore. Great was the rejoicing among the rescuers, They applauded their own intrepidity and skill to the echo, and as soon as these cheers died away they resolutely set at work to resus- citate the body corporate, In this pious work they are still engaged with much industry and enthusiasm and with a certain degree of encouragement. The luck- less fair has shown signs of returning life and may yet be entirely restored and be once more again as good as new. Asto that we can tell ard presently. But at the best it was a close ei WHAT ME. DEPEW HAD AT STAKE. No wonder that Mr. Depew fought so stub- bornly. The success of the enterprise means more to him than to any one else. He will be the director general and his railroad will make millions of dollars. The tracks of the New York Central surround the proposed site on three of the four sides and the bulk of the passen- ger traffic to and fro would go through its gates. Again, Mr. Depew as the head of this great nal project would be a very likely candi- te for the presidency. As it is, he is easily the “first citizen” of New York city. He has become indispensable and his voice decides the prize in every civie pageant. His latest vari- ation has been to come out as an author, but I learn that in this matter he has used the skilled help of “literary fellers”—merely supervising speeches—much as some editors of great dailies write editorials, THREE TIMES AND OUT. There are drawbacks in living or trying to transact business in a town built on an island. ‘This was conclusively ascertained by the pas- sengers on the ferry boat from Hoboken one foggy morning this week. The Newberg left as usual, but had scarcely got outside the slip when she collided with another ferry boat of the same line, Some slight damage was done, but the Newberg steamed ahead for a tew mo- ments, when she ran into another ferry boat, In spite of additional bruises she kept valiantly on her way, however, only to receive another violent whack from @ collision with a sloop. This time the damage was 80 severe that there was no course open to her but a masterly re- treat, which was successfully accomplished, and the passengers sent over on another steamer. However, in spite of such little eccentricities the bey bene still do an immense businens and probably will continue to do so in Cae of any number of bridges and tunnels, During the week an immense syndicate transaction has come to hght, under which the controlling amount of stock in the Union ferry company, which owns nearly all the Brooklyn ferry lines, has been sold at $200 a share. As the market value of these shares was understood to be in the neighborhood of €165 tne negotiations remind one unpleasantly of the recent transactions in the Sixth national bank, but in the case of the ferry syndicate the purchasers are men of high reputation, Thero is some mystery yet about the negotiations and possibly they may fall through, but the interesting fact is brought out that in the opinion of the shrewdest investors the ferry franchises are growing more and more valuable in spite of all the “modern improve- ments” in crossing the stream. AT THE LADIZS BAR, The mild winter has been a godsend to the owners of ladies bars. And what, pray, are these? Why,the soda water fountains,of course. Latterly Ihave been into one of the most fre- quented of these establishments in search of a modest and feminine quencher, and I have been amazed at the panting and impatient mob of pretty faces and swell gowns collected there A bevy of neat-handed Phyl- e kept on the jump during the shopping span of the day. It is needless to add that the labors of these graceful bar tenders are much increased by the elaboration of the orders which their fair cus- tomers give them, The quaint compounds which the feminine mind contrives in soda water flavors is notorious. Just as I passed out of the resort I have mentioned one sultry day this week I heard a lady for orange and pineapple syrup with lemon ice cream. They do say that at some places the ladies can geta taste of the real ‘cretur” in some of its seductive forms under the mask of a@ fountain, but this I don’t believe, I am somewhat skeptical of the existence of that type of fashionable New York girl who figures so conspicuously in the Sunday news- paper “special” and in out-of-town syndicaten, and who smokes cigarettes, drinks gin fizzes, wears the miraculously embroidered and mot toed petticoats so luridly described and in gen- eral out-Ouidas Ouida. I suspect that these young women are muca better known to the lice than to the four hundred. Whenever I ear of the eceoatricities or the escapades of one of these dazzling creatureslam reminded of the painful anti-climax of a recent “ro- mance in high life” as described in one of the most enterprising of the “great dailies.” The heroine of this thrilling incident in the news- Paper columns was a beautiful and accom. plished West Side belle, moving in the highest eircles of society, Qne's ideas of the limits of those circles became a little hazy when a closely investigating cotemporary announced that the aristocratic belle’s father kept @ small butcher shop on 9th avenue, TRACHER.
