The Annual Report of the City Engineer on Public Works. The Street Grading and Gut- tering Done and to Be Done, The Waterworks—Hanscom Park-- The Viaduct, ste, The annual report of the city engi- neer, Mr. Andrew Rosewater, upon the general subject of public works has been submitted to Mayor Boyd. who will present it to the city council next Tuesday evening. The contents of this report will be of interest to every citizen and the suggestions made will be worthy of especial attention. The report is as follows: STREET GRADING, The following work has been prac. tically concluded under the head of grading during the past twelve months Cass street, from Twentieth to Thir- teenth was completed by the Duffy Bros., aud acceptéd by the city. It embodied 17,663 cubie yards of grad- ing at 16 cents per yard, amounting to $2,826.08. Tenth street grading, let to Luke McDermott, is just being brought to a close; it 'will embody, approximately. 13,000 cubic yards, which, at 24§ cents per yard, will amount to $3,217.50.. On the above, 81,257.50 has been paid thp contrac- tor to date. The work on the Btrects by the street commissioner aggrogatos te March 1, $13,175 42, leaving an exhibit of approximate expenditure for grading and cross-walks and re- pairs, 819,210, Of this, $3,000, is paid by special tax, thus leaving as total expense for grading, by contract and otherwise, for the year ending March 31, about $16,219. In addition to the grading done by the city, the county has graded Twentieth street south of St. Mary's avenue, to a width of forty feet; also, the extension of Farnam street, Cam- ing strect and several main thorough- fares connecting leading county roads with the streets of the city. CURBS AND GUTTERS, At _your solicitation an ordinance establishing lines ‘twenty feet from the property line, or one-fifth the width of streets, was prepared by me and adopted early in tho seanon. Another. ordinance increasing the depth of gutters was also passed, and will very materially improve the drainage capacity of the streets. Since the adoption of these ordinances the contracts for curbing and gutter- ing were let, one on TENTH STREET, to Messrs. Drexel & Mack, extending from Farnam street south to Pierce street; it is now about two.thirds completed, though some of the work greeted by & large audience, -It is said that the men recently dis- charged at the U. P. transfer were those who came over and attended the funeral of the late Geo.

The rates of assessment on that part of the street west of Seventeenth strect, where curbs have been directed to be set thirty feet trom the property line, will be some- what increased in the blocks affected, owing to the increased lengths at the corners of the streets. My exper- ience in the past season leads me to suggest the appointment of proper in. spectoms to remain on all such con. tract work during the construction, to see to the proper enforcement of specifications, [t is impossible for the city engineer to see to the com- pliance with specitications in all de- tails, for the reason that whenever he is cafled away advantage is taken by the contractor in work which admits of concealment. The cost of inspec- tion should be a part of the expense embraced in the levy against the prop- erty on which the cost 18 assessed. SEWERAGE, The most extensive public work done in the past year is the adoption of plans and actual construction, since October 1st, of three aud one-fourth miles of small pipe sewers, covering the area between Farnam and How- ard streets, cast of Twenticth, The system, as is well known, is designed for the disposal of sowerage only. Its goneral operation has already been described in special reports submitted, I only wish to say, therefore, in con- nection with this subject, that a claim ton, . ~The ladies of the Congreg church are preparing an entert which will shortly be given in the church | f parlors in which & fau deill will be the principal feature, Reports from the re. hearsals indicate one of the most unique und pleasing entertainments of the season which will certuinly draw a large audience. ~On Bunday morning laet, Abram Buskirk, of Maiveland, Cass county, a younsfuan of twenty, attemptivg to shoot ot geese, exploded the left tarrel of his gun, shattering his hand so badly that am- patation at the wrist was necessitated, Dr, George Stewart, of South Bend, per. formed the operation, ~ Tuesday was the fifteenth anniver wary of the arrival in this city of Mr, Bertram Hansen, for mavy years con. mected with the Union Pacific land de- partment, from which he retired April 234, last, ou account of failing health, Bince April 4th, 1867, Mr. Hansen has ween wany changes in Omaha, which, in those years, has risen from a village to metropolitan importance, He has held many respousible positions, and under his puidance and efforts thousands of settle have taken up their homes in Nebraske, #Although he has traveled the world over, ke says he has no desire to leave Omaha again, snd will make it his bome for all time to come. He is the agent here of whe Pacific Const Steamship cowpany. involving the payment of a royalty of above £2,586 drawn on the bond fund to pay for pipes used in the laterals, which, huwever, will revert back to that fund as soon as the special levies which cover this excess in the four districts now completed are collected. This, therefore, makes the expense thus far actually incurred by the city on the small pipe system: By sewer dlstrict No. 1, 4,276 fert Ry sewer district No, 2, 4 ot v wewer district No. 8, 9,655 feet By sewer district No. 4, 2,104 feot Total, 15,000 foet. ey *15,221 48 The cost of laterals has been shight- ly increased above the original esti- mate, owing to a general demand to have pipes sunk deeper in order to drain the lowest cellars, and, with that in view, they were sunk from ten feet to as great a depth as twenty feet. The general demand for sewer connections in this city, since these sewers have been built, is so great that, in order to extend facilities for lateral sewer connections throughout the city, T would recommend the im- mediate advertising for the material necessary for the mains extension north to Cuming stteet. The cost of material and laying of pipe will in- volve an expenditure not to exceed $10,000, from its present terminus near Dodge street to Cuming street. It will also be necessary to lay the pipe around the bluffs to Davenport and Ninth streets, through private grounds. The cost of such right of way would be nominal compared with the improvement secured in the gen- eral grade and nature of foundations. The entire work of laying pipe sewers on the main and part of the lateral was carried out umder the personal supervision of my assistant, Mr. Geo. W. Tilson, C.E., whose care, skill and fidelity to the interests of the city T cannot commend too highly. Very frequently when working through wet, treacherous ground, where water had to be pumped day and night and work prosecuted with- out stoppage, he remained with the work as late as 2 o'clock in the morn- ing. STORM WATER SEWERS, A coutract for the completion of the storm water sewer in South Oma- ha creek from Thirteenth 1o Ninth street, was lot early in October to Messrs. McCauley & O'Brien, 1t includes the_construction of all catch basing, manholes and other ap- purtenauces, on the entire line of gewer contracted to be built. Under these representations the city was led to arrange for the curbing, gutter- ing and grading of Tenth street, with the expectation of filling the street full width, and carrying the surface stroet water through the basins into the sewers. A brick inspector, at a cost of $100, was also appointed to in spect brick claimed to be on hand ready to go into the sewer. Although thay were to have Dbeagun work on or bhefore October 15th, 1881, and prose- cute work at the rate of ten feet per day, for every working day from date, not a brick has yet been delivered or laid. I recommended last fall, that tho city annu the contract, in view of their breach of good faith, but no ac- tion has as yet been taken, though no less than 80 working days haye passed by since the time set for beginning. VIADUCTS, Under the direction of the council, surveys were made and proposals asked for a viaduct on Eleventh streot, from Jackson street to the alley, be- tween Marcy and Mason, last fall. Bids for an iron structure, with a twenty-seven fcot paved road way, and a foot way on each side fer pedes- trians, were received, varying in amounts from $65,000 to $100,000 for the entire work complete. The Union Pacific railroad company have inti- mated that at least one-half of this amount would be paid by them, The proposition has, however, as yet as sumed no definite shape. From surveys made by me on Thirteenth street, I am convinced ten cents per,foot on all pipe laidunder thissystem may come up inthe courts, It is based upon a patent issued cov- ering various special contrivances, for ushing, vertilating, etc.; also upon the broldmmund nll the use of the pipes on the general principles in- volved in this 5yatem. Pgo ,.;:l“ the patented contrivances are concerned, that a viaduct under the lowest tracks upon that street, 60 feet wide, can be ensily constructed, witk a light change of grade between Leavenworth and Marcy streets, and at a cost not to ex- coed $8,000. Considering the im- portance of that street as a main thoroughfare to Sarpy county and as a business street, so small an outlay to secure travel from any possible danger, by avoiding the crossing and track, I regard this as the most prac- ticable and. cheapest route at present to South Omaha. HANSCOM PARK. Although the courcil ordered plans for water pipe lines and fountains for the park last fall, want of time has precluded any more than general at- tention to this subject under any cir- cumstances, Want of funds would have prevented much outlay by the city at this time, From general ex- amation of the grounds, I believe that by widening of the south ravine, with a stone wall across the lower end, a very picturesque lake can be developed, by the use of water from the waterworks, which for park pur- poses is guaranteed free. 1 am not, however, at jresent able to detail any system of improvements in that di- rection. The construction of the street railway to the park this spring will naturally suggest theso improve- ments. The question, however, will be one of finance, WATERWORKS, The past year has developed rapid and very much needed lnombl ‘lor 1 have made special designs for the work carried out here, whigh does the necessary service of flushing automat- ically by an entirelydifferent mechan- ism from that of the patentee. So that the only basis upon which, inm; opinion, a royalty can be enforced, is 8 decision that the general principle of automatic sewer flushing, regard- less of the mechanism used is coy- ered in Mr, Waring's patent. This question has not as yet been tested in u,.‘ courts of il country, though it has been much disonssed in engineering journals. In the interest of all parties concerned, I would ad- vise the city to let the courts pass upon the claims, unless theyare with- drawn. The cot of the three and a ?nnrtnr milea alluded to is as follows: ,672 feot .ul mains, which include 600 feet of sixteen-inch iron pipe un- der the tracks, and all air inlets,man- holes, grading, sheeting, concrete work, cement, etc., conneoted with the work, $10,125.79; fees l{.r'; Waring, l.l,lfl&.a:l; to Mr. Bo gart, $400; ineering, etc. 214010, Total, 15,787,000 There has been in addition to the water supply of the city through the construction of watorworks. Although the system with a high reservoir is one uld not well be improved upon as a system, yet there are features in the execution of the present works which the city for its prosecution should carefully see carried out. The contract with the city requires the proper location of hydrants with reference to grades and ourb lines, It calls for a specific capacity of the en- gines; a specific capacity of settling basins and storage reservoirs, and evi- dence of the proper laying of pipes and the effactive capacity of pumps, etc.; it specifies sizes and heigbts of streams to be thrown in tests to be applied by the city council, Quite a number of these tests were attempted lawt emfl with the exceptiouof the Higl 1 test none proved saf iwtuz. that is, came within the strict bounds of requirements, The tests of the eight streams on Farnam street developed the fact that whatever fault existed at the pump works, six streams could readily reach standard height, but when more than that was attempted the waste of water exceeded the pumping capacity, and es a result the streams fell short, decreasing wi the prolongation of the effort. ”I‘here is no doubt in my mind, from obser- vationg noted, that the eight-stream test applied to the reservoir direct can be readily made, as calculations based upon hydraulic principles substantiate such expectations, 1 wish, however, in the public interests to make the suggestion, that as these tests are indicated in the contract aad : | the city is empowered to make them, that the city in future take charge of the tests when making them' and ex- act the opening of all valves through- out the line of pipes laid. I would further suggest, as the most import- ant of all tests, that of the pumping capacity of the engines themselves— that in the future the tests begin there. The city has mnothing to do with the economic duty of the en- gines, but simply capacity. As the present system is designed for the fire protection as well as water supply of the city, I would sug- gest also that the laying of another sixteen-inch main from the pump works to the storage reservoir bo urged, At preseat the pump and supply main are the same. A break- ago on its line at might may, before discovery, result in the absolute ex- haustion of the storage reservoir, and at the rame time preclude direct sup- ply. The latter suggestions are made in view of the numerous lenkages which have occurred on the main in the past six months. Whether this double line can be demanded by the city underits contract I do not know, but I simply allude to it as an import- ant precautionary measure against possible accidents to city interests, to to the city's advantage. BIDEWALKS, . The complex system now in vogue, touching the construction and repair of sidewulks, makes it impossible, without taking up several weeks’ time, to furnish any accurate data uuon that branch of public works. The only method to secure unifor- mity in that branch is to direct the construction of walks by uniform dis triors or street lines, directing the engineer department to prepare de- soriptions on any line desired to ba perfected, of all new walks needed and those to be repaired on such line, and then proceed with a general order without exception. As 1t is now, partiality is often shown and misun- derstandings and improper deserip- tions constantly arise,which make the drawing up of levies a most difficult task, and the enforced collection upon them one of uncertainty. Contracts for construction of walks of various apecific sizes, instead of being let every few weeks in small batches, should be let per lineal foot in width of different walks, to be ordered any- where in the city for periods of three or six months at a time, and so also for repairs, at a given rate per 1,000 feet of lumber. CITY ADDITIONS. Absence ot proper field notes on maps, of additions and requisite sub stantial corners as basis for future work, leads me to suggest, as the only protection for the city, that adoption of a rule requiring all street and al- ley corners to be designated by oak posts or stones, and a completo set of field notes duly certified to by the surveyor upon the plot. No addition should be accepted without being first sanctioned in the particulars above mentioned by the city engineer. THE ENGINEER DEPARTMENT. Under provisions made by the city council, T was authorized to employ a draftsman and such assistants as were absolutely necessary to prosecute the surveys and carry on the public worx This was done under restricted in- junctions of economy. A large part of the work of the previous years which had been left recorded on loose scraps, was permanently en- tered upon record hnoks procured for the purpose. Profiles of streets, al- leys and sewer lines have been en- tered and rapidly transferred: from all sources to large profile books, con- tract and epecification books have been started for ready re- ference, and a draftsman is now enuaged completing the record of all pie junctions in every block of the four sewerage districts in which sewers have been laid. The increas- ing labors incident to sewer work and the large amount of work which the office is called upon to do daily, in tur- nishing house numbers, data of grades, eto., to citizens, render it necessary that a draftsman and clerk be perma- nently employed. In addition to this a corps of assistants, rodman and chainman, should be supplied com- mensurate with the work on hand. Throughout the past year I have furnished « horse and wagon at my own expense. It is necessary to have one for the department to haul stakes and other materials for the ready transfer to distant sections of the city. The city should supply this necessary convenience itself. The salary of the city engineer, which was £1,200 per year at the time of assum- ing the duties of the office, though it was raised to $1,60C on November 1st, is entirely inadequate. The work of the city has grown to such an extent that the salary should be sufficient to pay for his entire time, which 2an be devoted exclusively to city interests, to the city' Nothing Could Be Stronger. 1400 PariN StrEET, | 8t.

REVISING FREIGHT RATE; A well known man says The Iowa Trunk line association has just issued a new freight tariff, By 1t, tho rates from Chicago to the Missouri River will not be changed but the new tarift effects a reduction of about 5 cent per hundred pound, on first, second and third classes, ung classes A, B and C, from Peoriato the |" U.
