THE ABANDONED TUNNEL —__+—__—__ Major Knight, who ts in charge of the water system of the District, makes a most significant statement in his annual report to the chief of engineers. It was referred to briefly in the synopsis of the report pub- Ushed in Saturday’s Star, end apparently has escaped the attention it .deserved. Speaking generally, Major Knight said that the only work now in progress toward an increased water supply, viz., the project for raising the dam at Great. Falls, will not in itself accomplish that most desired ob- ject. This work will permit an increased flow of water from the river through the conduit to the distributing reservoir, but will not add anything to the supply that reaches the city through the mains, for the reason that the supply in the reservoir cannot be increased beyond its present level without overflowing its banks. In other words, an increased water supply in the city can be effected only by increasing the means of conveying the water from the reservoir to the consumer. ‘The Abandoned Tunnel. There is now no provision fer anything of this kind beyond the testing of the tun- nel conduit between the distributing reser- voir and the Howard University reservoir, in order to determine its practicability for use in increasing the water supply. In case the tunnel stands the test the problem of getting the water to the city will be easily solved. There would then arise, however,the difficulty of securing an appropriation from Congress sufficient to put any practical project into successful operation. In his report Maj. Knight gives a table showing the fluctuations in the level of the water in the distributing reservoir during the different months of the year, not considering occasions when the water was lowered by the supply from the con- duit being cut off for purposes of repairs or of removing dep)sits in the conduit. Water on Capitol Hill. He accompanies this table with the fol- lowing statement, taken from Col. Elliot's annual report for the year ended June 30, 1890: “It will be seen that while formerly the water in the service pipes on East Capitol street, on Capitol Hill, rose to a helght of from 100 to 103% feet above datum, the water in the distributing reservoir standing at 140 feet, it was found at the end of the fiscal year just passed that it rose to a helght of from 126% feet to 130 feet above, the water in the distributing reservoir standing at 145 feet above that plane, so that it may be stated in general terms that the water on Capitol Hill, excepting when its free flow is obstructed by the insufficient size or the internal corrosions of street mains and service pipes, stands about 30 feet higher than before it had the new supply.” Maj. Knight then refers to his tabular statement in regard to the water in the reservoir, and says that it shows that dur- ing the past year the water in the reser- yoir has been at levels not far below 145 feet, and at times even above 145 feet, and consequently that any material reduction of head in the city service below the level reported by Col. Eiliot in 1890 is not to be attributed to low levels of water in the reservoir. Enough in the Reservoir. “The raising of the dam at Great Falls,” he says, “will increase the discharge of the conduit and will thus provide for an increaseu consumption, but a material in- crease in the level of the water in the dis- tributing reservoir is not contemplated, for such increase would cause the water. to flow over the banks. Hence, while provision will be made for increased consumption, additional pressure in the existing low- service mains will not result from any work now authorized by Congress. It fol- lows that there is imperative need of early action by that body, if increased pressure in the water mains of this city is to be effected. Recommendations as to how this improvement may be effected are deferred for presentation with the report on the feasibility and propriety of completing the tunnel conduit, which is to be submitted to Congress next December, as required by an act approved March 2, 1395.” Increasing the Supply. The work for increasing the water sup- ply of the city was commenced under an appropriation made by an act of Congress approved July 15, 1882. The plan consisted in raising the dam in the Maryland chan- nel at the Great Falls of the Potomac to an eleyation of 148 feet above mean tide at the Washington navy yard and its ex- tension at that height across Conn’s Island and the Virginia channel of the river, ex- tending the Washington aqueduct from the distributing reservoir above Georgetown to a site selected for the new reservoir near Howard University by a tunnel 20,006.3 feet long, constructing at the tunnel outlet a@ new reservoir of about 300,000,000 gallons capacity, and connecting this reservoir by a@ line of large mains with the existing system of water mains in the city of Washington. Maj. Knight says that so much of the plan as related to raising and extending the dam at Great Falls was com- pleted during the fiscal year 1887. No operations under the project were carried on during the past fiscal year. The ap- propriations for this work were as follows: July 15, 1852, $1,485,279.30; July 7, 1884, $87,500; March 3, 1885, $57,500; March 26, 1886, $5,000; August 4, 1880, $555,000; March 80, 1886, $855,000; making a total of $2,575,279.30. Of these appropriations there was an un- expended balance July 1, 1894, of $427,- 639.25, out of which there was expended during the past fiscal year for raising the dam at Great Falis and testing the tunnel the sum of $20,864.48, leaving an unex- pended balance available July 1, 1893, of $406,774.77. Maj. Knight says that no esti- mate for further appropriation is submitted pending the adoption of a plan for an in- creased water supply. Maj. Knight submits a series of tables, showing the condition of water at Great Falls, at the Dalecarlia receiving reser- voir and at the distributing reservoir, as well as the height of water over dam at Great Falls for each day of the past fiscal year. The height of the water on the dam at Great Falls varied during the year from a minimum of .6 of a foot (which ‘was the height for eleven days in the latter part of July, all of August and eighteen days in September) to a maximum of 3.4 feet on March 3, 1895. Testing the Water. At the distributing reservoir the water during 249 days was clear, for 17 days it was slightly turbid, for 38 days It was tur- bid, and for 61 days it was very turbid. The water was clear during the first twenty- seven days of June, but during the last three days, as a result of rains, it was very turbid. In determining the condition of the water a metallic tube with glass ends is used. This is filled with water, and the distance at which a ball immersed in the water can be seen from one of the ends is noted. When it can be seen at a distance of from 22 to 36 inches, inclusive, it is considered clear: from 15 to 21 inches, slightly turbid; from 3 to 14 inches, turbid, and from 0 to 7 inches, very turbid. ———— The Star Out of Town, THE EVENING STAR will be sent by mail to any address in the United States or Canada for such period as may bo desired at the rate of fifty cents per month. €7 But all such orders must be ac- companied by the money, or the paper cannot be sent, as no ac- counts are kept with mail subscrip~ tions, THE MEN ARE SATISFIED Gripmen and Oonductors Say They Do Not Want More Eating Tima A Talk With a Veteran of the 14th Strcet Linc—Considerate Employers Easy Hours and Good Wages. So far as can be ascertained the gripmen and conductors of the Washington and Georgetown cable system have no sympa- thy with the cry that is being raised certain quarters in their behalf for time in which to eat their dinners instead of being obliged to take their meals between trips. Representations have been made to the ef- fect that the men feel that they are not justly treate¢ in that they are forced to refresh themselves while on the run, so to speak, and have no lay-over time for meals. Reporters for The Star have talked with a number of the -gripmen and con- ductors and find there is no such sentiment among them. On thé contrary, they gen- erally fecl indignant at the statements that have been made reflecting on the degree of consideration shown the men by the com- pany, and say that they are very well sat- isfied with the existing arrangements and will not welcome any change. Indeed, they voiced this opinion in 4 practical manner yesterday when the compeny caused a pe- tition to be placed at each of the stations of the 14th street, 7th street and George- town lines. This petition was framed in a triple form, containing three distinct propositions, and its plan was for the men to sign their favorite scheme so as to give expression to the views of the employes, Threegropositions. The first proposition was for the men to work as they have been doing, that is, be- ginning at 6 o'clock and working until 8 for the day trip, and beginning at 3 and workirg until about midnight for the night trip; second, for the day men to be relieved by the night crew for one trip in order to get meals, and return the favor to the night crew later in the day; third, to give each man four trips on and four off, with ay in- terval betwcen for eating time. So far as has been ascertaired the men were unani- mously in favor of the present system. At the 14th street car house last evening, when about three-fourths of the signa- tures of the men had been procured, every one had ipproved the first preposition. In addition to this, the men yesterday circu- lated among themselves a paper on each line certifying that they were perfectly sat- isfied with the present system and carnest- ly protesting against any change. This paper was generally signed, and, so far as is known, none of the gripmen or conduc- ters refused to do so when given the op- portunity. Mr. Botts Protests. Mr. G. M. Botts, gripman of No. 3, 14th street line, called at the office of The Star this: morning to place on record his; erson- al protest against the statements that have been made regarding the discontent of the men and the alleged harsh treatment of the employes by the officers of the company. “I have been with the Washinzton and Georgetown road,” he said, “for twelve years, and I have never had the least cause to complain on the ground of harsh or in- considerate treatment by my superior offl- cers. I would like to y on behalf of Mr. Sailer, the superintendent of the line, that he is kind to the men and always grants everything in reason that they ask for their benefit. In my experience the com- pany meets the men half way every time. if a man attends to business and does his work, keeps sober and does not trifle with the rules, which are not harsh, he will be retained and rewarded for his faithfulness. Now, as to this matter of eating, let me say that there Js no discontent whatever among the men. For a month I on the day trip, and for the next month I am on the night trip. For the day trip I eat my brea¥fast before going-on duty, at 6 o'clock. Then at 7:30 or thereabouts I get a lunch- eon, which is handed to me at V street by one of my children, and we time what we call the dinner trip so that our usual lay~ over of six minutes is most often stretched to eight minutes. This gives plenty of time for me to eat. I tell you a man can get away with a good deal of food in eight minutes. Every man that I know on the road thinks this is plenty of time. Some- times we may meet a gripman, one of the regulars, just going on duty or an extra going to the office, while on the run up the hill,and the company allows us to take him on and let him run the grip beyond theboun- dary, while we get a little more time for our meals, eating on the car. The com- pany used to let us turn the grip over to the conductor, but so many accidents oc~ curred that this ts prohibited, and we are now allowed to be relieved only at the ex~ treme end of the dinner trip by some ex- perienced gripman, who may chance to be off duty at that time. This is a favor which we grant to each other, and it some+ times stretches the dinner time from — to twelve or fifteen minutes. Then at 12: I get my dinner in the same way. Plenty of Time to Eat. “When I am on the night run, beginning at about 8 o'clock, I get two good meals early in the day, and then take my supper on the car at about 7:30, The regular lay- over time is the same at night as in the day—six minutes—but we can almost al- ways stretch it a minute or two by start- ing a little ahead of time and pushing things along, which we are allowed to do by the company. It would break our day; up very badly to split our trips, and I do not know a man who would prefer any. change to the present system. I have talked with the men generally since this matter came up, ¢nd they are quite indig- nant at the misrepresentations of the true conditions of things which have been printed. “Nor is it true that the company black~ sts men whom it discharges so as to pra- vent their ever obtaining employment on @ local street car line. I know of tweaty, cases of men who have been dismissed from the Washington and Georgetown road for various reasons who are now drivers or conductors on the Metropolitan and Eck- ington lines. Nor is there a word of truth in the statement that the company has given orders against our joining the union, The men generally do not favor the idea of joining the union, which does not offer ad~ vantages enough to them to compensate for what they lose. We have a benefit ag- sociation of our own, which pays us a do]~ Jar a day when we are sick or disabled, and we could not afford to go into tho union and maintain the dues of both the association and the union. Fair Wages and Easy Rules. “We get two dollars for every day we work, whether we make our full number of trips or not. If by any acicdent the road is blocked for a time and we lose one or more trips, we are not docked for the trips lost, but are paid iwo dolalrs for the day. Last winter, when the weather was so severe—I think it was in February—each gripman and conductor was paid four dollars a day, and in the same way the wages of every man working for the company, working out of doors, were doubled during the severe weather. About every twelfth day each regular man “gets assigned off, and thig gives him a holiday, which he reaily needs, It also allows the company to work the men on the extra roll, who manage to gét in about five days of the week on an aver- age. I do not know of any road in the country, and certainly there is none in this city, on which the men work so few hourg for such large pay under such considerate conditions. If the people of the Distri: wish to help us they will let us alone an let the company alone, and I know that we will be much better off than if they try to force upon us some aid which we do not want." —— Bad Luck for Sealers. ‘A San Francisco dispatch says ill luck follow the sealers this year, contrding to stories told by incoming sail- ers.
