THE CITY'S WATER SUPPLY Major Knight's Report of Operations During July. Turbidity of the Water at a Maximum —Raising the Dam and Testing the Tunnel. Maj. Knight has made a report to the chief of engincers in regard to the Wash- ington aqueduct and the water supply of the District. He says that during the past month the water in the distributing reservoir has been maintained more than half the month within eighteen inches of the flow line, the reference of this being 146 above mean high tide. Once it was seven feet below this line, owing to the emptying of the conduit, May 31, for re- pairs to the south connection of the recely- ing reservoir. At another time it was 410 feet below the flow line, due to an inter- ception of the supply from the conduit for twenty-four hours while the consumption of water was being measured. This was done from 7 a.m., June 25, to 7 a.m., June 26. The consumption and wastage of water during that period was 058,137 gallons, or about 174 gallons per capita of the popu- lation (270,514), as determined by the po- lice census of December 31, 1804. The Turbid Water. The water supplied during the month, Maj. Knight says, was free from turbid- ness until the heavy rain of June 27, afier which date the turbidness was at a maxi- mum, it being impossible to allow the water to settle before it enters the basin. During the month extensive work was done in putting the conduit road in good order from Great Falls to bridge No. 3, a distance of five miles. In parts of the road the cutting of brush was very heavy. The project for protecting the conduit at waste weir No, 1, near Great Falls, was completed during the month. It consisted of the rebuilding of two pliers and the constructoin of two others, so as to make four additional weir openings. Maj. Knight says that debris cannot now be carried back into the conduit over the spillway of this weir in time of freshet unless the river reaches a height four fest greater than it did at this weir during the flood of 1889. Raising the Dam. Work was continued on the project for increasing the water supply of the city by raising the height of the dam at Great Falls two and a half feet. Stone was quar- ried and cut and a survey was commenced to obtain data for determining what dam- age if any will be occasioned to property by raising the dam. SA suspension cable- way will be used in execution of this proj- ect. To Test the Tunnel, In execution of the project for testing the tunnel conduit, the shaft at Rock creek has been practically closed and a two-ring brick arch and some concrete have been placed in the shafts at Foundry branch -and Champlain avenue. Pumping at How- ard University shaft bas continued, and the removal of debris from its bottom commenced. A proposal has been accepted to construct, erect, and if required, remove a standpipe on this shaft. Measurements and computations have been taken on which to base estimates of work necessary to the completion of the tunnel. During July it is proposed to close the shafts at Foundry branch and Champlain avenue, to continue borings in the Vicinity of Howard University reservoir, and to let the tunnel Practically fill by infiltration. + e+ —___ Thicves Enter Mr. Springer’s House. Early yesterday morning thieves entered the house of ex-Representative Springer, No. 43 B street southeast, an carried off some clothing and a small amount of cash. An entrance was effected by breaking a rear window. The thieves went through several rooms in the house and one of them stopped on the premises long enough to exchange an old pair of shoes for better footwear. The police are investigating the case. ——— Mr. Bernard Pitzer’s Death. Announcement was made in The Star yes- terday of the death, In Salem, Va., of the father of Rev. A. W. Pitzer, D.D., pastor of the Central Presbyterian Church of this city. Mr. Bernard Pitzer was the oldest resident of Salem, and although eighty-six years of age he has been quite vigorous for a man so far advanced in life. Some weeks ago Dr. Pitzer's mother, who is liv- ing at Salem, fell and fractured her arm and shoulder, and has since been in bad attended by Dr. Pitzer’s wife, from who the doctor received the first intelligence of his father’s illness and rather sudden death. Mr, Bernard Pitzer will be buried today. ———————— Queer Whcelmen Elect Officers. The “Queer Wheelmen”™ held their regu- lar monthly Meeting last night at their rooms, 510 11th strect northwest, and elect- ed permanent officers for the year. The following were elected: R. Brooke Clokey, president; W. J. Espey, vice president; V K. Larrimore, secretary; W. H. Henshaw, treasurer; L. O. Slack, captain; Geo. E. Boyd, first Neutenant. On Monday evening the ‘Queers’ were entertained by Miss E. O'’Bryon at her home, 1220 H street, where the members enjoyed a delightful evening. ‘The “Queers” are now making preparations for their summer tour on wheels, which will, no doubt, be full of interest. ’ ee Personal Mention. Judge Bowler, controller of the treasury, has returned to the city from a two weeks’ visit to Bar Harbor, Me. 3 Mr. Warren 8. Young of the White House force has goae to Chautauqua, N. Y., with his niece, Miss Jessie Dean, and before re- turning to Washington he will make a visit to his former home in Ohio. —_—_——_—_-o-_____ Mr. McAdoo at Gloucester. The Dolphin, with Assistant Secretary McAdoo aboard, arirved yesterday at Giou- cester, Mass. Mr. McAdoo has telegraphed that he will return to Washington on tho 20th, The Marblehead has arrived at Stockholm, the Monoecacy at Taku, the Bancroft at Greenport, L. 1; the Mohican at Seattle, and the Michigan’ at Mackinac. The San Francisco has sailed from Cron- stadt for Stockholm, and the Yorktown from Nagasaki for Shanghai. -—_____ Uniforms for Recruits. The War Department has ordered that the issue of clothing to recruits before join- ing their regiments be confined to the smallest quantity absolutely necessary to their comfort, and recruits sent directly to regiments from recruiting stations, if sufficiently clothed when enlisted, will join without the issue of uniforms. This 1s done in the interest of the recruits, who often soil their uniforms in the long travel necessary to reach thelr companies and are thus put to the expense of buying Lew unfforms upon arrival. ——_ > -—_—_— Yellow Fever Protection. Surgeon General Wyman of the marine hospital service is redoubling his efforts for the protection of Atlantic and gulf coast cities against yellow fever Infection on ac- count of the rapld spread of the disease in the West India islands, Reports from sev- eral towns in Cuba and neighboring istands indicate an alarming increase in the num- ber of yellow fever cases, one of the most serious phases of the situation being the gradual approach of the fever toward Ha- na. i Bull Fight at Cripple Creek. Arrangements are being made at Cripple Creek, Col., for the holding of a carnival of sports, of which a genuine bull fight is to be the principal feature. It will be held at Gillette, one of the towns on the Crippie Creek district, early in the fall. Se gee ee The London Times publishes the first report of British erops for this season, which shows that the wheat acreage is sore 2) per cent smaller than in 184. The Canadian government has made its promised announcement of policy in the matter of Manitoba schools.
