Under this provision the Presi- dent last August appointed as the commission Rudoiph Herring of New York. Samuel M. Gray of Providence, R.L, and Frederick P. Stearns of Massachusetts, The commission's report was yesterday afternoon transmitted to Con- gress by the President. The report isa volu- minous one, containing twelve colored plates showing maps of the present and the contem- Plated sewerage system. A full chemical analysis of the river water is given, with long ussion of the various known methods of purification of sewerage. PROTECTING THE RIVER BANKS. The commission recommend the protection of the low lands along the line of the old canal trom floods by means of a dike built on the line of Virginia avenue across the low land to the monument grounds, the dike to be six feet above the freshet height of June, '89, and fifty feet wide at the top. Another dike is recom- mended to cross ine valley of the James Creek canal at M streetsouth. ‘The two dikes are ex- timated to cost $44.600. Fivo projects for ‘sewerage system have been gone into by the commission, one of which they recommend. THE PLAX APPROVED. The chosen plan contemplates the discharge of almost all the district sewage at the luwest outlet that is at» short distance north of the naval magazine, A portion of Georgetown can discharge its sewage directly into the channel without harm, "The discharge into Rock creek, the Eastern Branch or into the Washington channel will be prevented by intercepuons which will deliver the sewage tothe pumping station on the Eastern Branch, The sew: will here be lifted by pumps 40 as to flow by gravity through connected iron #yphons under the Eastern Branch to Popular Point, just weut of Anacostia. A brick sewer will continue to the river banks where tho sewage will be couducted by iron outlet pipes to the channel, ‘THE BROTIMATED CouT, ‘The commission estimate the cost of their system as follows: Kock creck and B street intercepter. $377, ae =| East side intercepter.

The flooding of the oe districts by heavy storms and river freshets will be prevented, ‘The present four canals will be abandoned and can be filled up. he low, flat and unsanitary sewers in the low districts will also be abundoned as sewage car- riers, but can be utilized to carry only storm water and the overflow of very dilute sowage from the new sewers during heavy storms, The currents in the propascd ag will be sufliciently strong to prevent de} The ground water in the low fstcicka will be permanently lowered. Ample provision will be made for the re- moval of storm water from within the city limits, The sewers are laid at euch a depth that they will not iuterfere with future underground cone structions in the strects, COMPARISON WITH OTHER CITIES. In conclusion the report shows by compari- son with the expenditures for the same purpose in other cities that $3,000,000 is not an extrav- agapt expenditure for a London's system when comp cost #35.000,000, Berlin has about | Boston's spent $15,000,000 for improved sewerage. system stands for ¥11,000,000, while Providence has begun a $3,500,000 system. Chicago's works will coat €25,000.000, while Milwaukee's are estimated at ,000. A VOLUMINOUS DOCUMENT, The report in itself is an elaborate document, containing besides the maps and additional papers 136 pages of typewriting neatly bound in a Morocco binding with a complete index in the front. The report has an elaborate introduction, going fully into the history of the appointment of the commission and giving an outline of their work. The report states that the popu- lous part of the District of Columbia and the territory now most in need of better sewage disposal is situated north of the Eastern branch, The gencral topography of the Dis- ‘ained with a table giving the heights to' which the water has risen during freshets along the river front. A com- prehensive history of the various plans for kewernge in the District iv given, ‘Ihe different schemes proposed and recommended by the various reports from the Commissioners aro discussed, ‘THE PROBLEM. After referring to the appointment of the | Sewerage commission the report says: “Concisely stated the problem which we find placed before us, therefore, is to recommend a comprehensive system of sewerage and drain- age which will effectually remove the sewage from the —inliabited parts of the District and dispose of it iu an uncbjectionabie mauner, both to those in and out of the District, and which will prevent the rain water of heavy storms from eausin, inconvenience and damage by flooding, ani further a provision in connection with the fore- acing requirements for preventing trevhets in e Potomac river from overtlowing the low areas in the ceutral part of the city, DISPOSAL AND PURIFICATION, Part second of tha report deals with the | qrestions of disposal and purification of the sewage. The report says: ‘The fundamental requirement for the proper disposal in this case is that the sewaxe shall be purified indirectly or rendered innocuous and thus prevent the unhealth- ful and otherwise objectionable condi- tions resulting from the purification of organic matter in the neighborhood of human habitations,” The report says that the idea that sewage vould be converted intoa valuable munure has lost most of its advocates, The various methods of purification are then disenssed at considerable length. ‘fhe methods taken up are subsidence, straining through coarse filters, chemical precipitation, filtration eee land andthe method whichtn this e commission thought the most practi- cable—discharge of the sewage into the Poto- mac river, DISCHARGING INTO THE POTOMAC. In discussing this later method the report says: ‘In order to determine from what popu- lation sewage can be discharged into the Potomac river without first being purified it is necessary to determine the ordinary and low water discharges of the river.” A discussion of the subject then follows and in summing up the commission conclude that the minimum dow of the river at A ghee gs art is about 1,100 cubic feet per the low water flow of an ordinary fhe hago. on about 2,300 cubic feet per, second, and the: of opinton that if the latter volume can lute the sewage to such an extent as to Tapes the water from in fensive berm’ “will result then uo serious from less dilution on ma the rare occasions when the river reaches a lower numerous figu that the population which would be tion of the results of another little trip taken by —— In this case it was the brass band sbtp ‘or the American officers, It was his in- tention to have visited the United States be- fore this, bat the arrest and confinement of his sou, the Duc d’Orleans, by order of the Freach goverument, interrupted his plans, for bv the ordi; rt ter flo book ined low wat ry yw of Gray Point Below the Eastern seit Fas sete st procting point of land loys chest ah RIVER, After theroughly discussing these varions eutlets the commission summarize the section jag creep Saee oprah water flow. in bo beens Bm oy to dispose of bap Rat oes 000 inhabitants, merit uniformly with the whole Pane and is not carried toa place where the suspended particles therein con- tained can deposit and cause offense. In view of this conclusion the commission conclude that there is no doubt that the best method of disposing of the sewerage at present See 3 lear time 0 come is to discharge it the Potomac at one Or more suitable outlets, - The report cuncludes on yon various outlets that the one discharging above the ral magazine removes the sewage so far from the city that it can not return on the flood tide, and that the sewage of at least 800,000 people can be disc peda nace | ‘The outlet opposite Gravelly Point is ered next in order of merit, while Easby'sPoint is considered the least satisfactory. PROTECTION FROM FLOODS, The report devotes'a section to the protec- tion of low portions of the city from river floods and conctudes that there two methods by which the desired result can be obtained, one being to raise the low portion of the city above the elevation reached by the dreshete sot to provide sewers of sufficient capacity to discharge the storm water at the bi it stages of the river and the other to prevent the entrance of the river water by dikes and to provide for pumping the storm water from the diked area. Either method, the commission think, could be depended upon and the question resolves itself into a question of relative cost. The former plan would cost probably $5,000,000, while the latter with the dikes. as stated above, would only cost about 1,500,000, - in diseussing the system tobe chosen the commission thinks that a ee of 500,000 should be Feige for. ‘The sewers, they think, should be circular except in special cues. SEWAGE PUMPING. * The schemes contemplate pumping the sewage, and in this connection the report says: To pump the entire sewage of a city might at first appenr to be an undertaking too great to attempt, but the difficultics reality are slight and Riers are many examples where the system is carried out. Sewage pumping stations, the report says, ure often found iu the centers of cities and are not in the slightest offensive. THE BEIRCTED PLANS, As bas been stated, the commission consid- ered in detail five plans for a sewage system. Certain general features are common to all of them. Allof them provide for keeping the storm water falling uvon the higher ground from descending into the low central district. To protect “the low district against flooding during freshets all the oii ae contemplate the building of dikes, ‘a projects like- wise utilige those of the existing sewers that are ina fairly good condition, excepting the one passing throagh the White Lot from 15th street to B street, which is to be abandoned because it descends so low that a discharge of its sewage and storm water. by gravity at a proper outfall is impracticab! All the projects likewise obviate the neces- sity for preserving any partof the present B reet outlet can: which can therefore be filled up. ‘They algo do not require the use of the James creck canal, which will require fil ing up from the mouth of the old Tiber sewer to the proposed dike at N street, THE FAVORED PLAN. The plan which the commission recommend is marked project one, The report in giving an outline of this plan says that it contemplates the delivery of practically all the sewnge at | the outlet north of the uaval magazine. As stated at the beginuing interceptions will pre- vent the discharge of sewage into Rock creek, Eastern Branch and the river and deliver it toa pumping station at the foot of New Jersey on the Eastern Branch, ‘age will be lifted toa sufticient height can flow by gravity through iron in- verted siphons laid under the Eastern Branch to Poplar Point. thence through a brick sewer to the banks ef the river and then through iron outlet pipes to the chauucl, At the same station there will be a pumping plant sufficient to litt the storm water of the Jaw district into the Eastern Branch when the water iu the lat- ter is too high to permit of @ discharge by gravity. INTERCEPTING SEWERS, The intercepters coutemplated are numer- ous. ‘The F street and Easby's Point intercepter will receivo all the sewage and storm water north of F street and also the flow of the New York avenue sewer. It will likewise receive the sewage and storm water from @ conmdera- ble area west of the White Lot aud north of C and D sircets. ts outlet for storm water will a into the Potomac a little south of Easby’s Point. The 41 strect intercepter will intercept all the area of South Washington. Its outlet for storm water will be into the Washington chan- nel at M street, Tho Tiber creck and New Jersey avenue in- and will discharge during storms into the Eastern Brauch at New Jersey avenue. It will alvo receive the sewage from the Capitol and Capitol grounds, and intercept all other sewers hue. The Rock creek and B street intercepter will intercept the entire sewage of the Kock Creek valley. The eust side intercepter will receive the sewage of the entire castern part of the city. The Water aud M street intercepter will’ in- tercept all the sewage of South Washington now discharging into the Washington channel and the sewage of the James C The B street aud New Jersey avenue intercey- ter will receive directly or through its brauches all the rain water of the low district requiring pumping. It will also receive at the upper end the contents of the Rock creek aud B street in- tercepter, and near its terminus the contents of all the other sewage intercepters, thus de- livering to the pumping station ull the sewage of the city and ail the storm water from the low district. The estimated cost of this system, here is 23,598,003 and the annual expense: , OTHER PROJECTS. The second project is identical with the first except that instead of pumping the sewage across the Eastern Branch it contemplates pum ping it westerly to the river opposite Grav- til Point. This plan is estimated at $3,343,902. the three remaining plang contemplate the discharge of all sewage, except from the central low districts, by gravity, the outfalis being in the main chanuel above and below the mouth of the Eastern Branch. The commission consider that by all means the first project is the one which should be carried out. as best meeting all the points— sunitary safety, ease, concentration at ® rea- sonable cost and the question of future im- provements, They therefore recommend the adoption of this pian, es NAVAL ORDERS.
