municipal government is as to a further supply. The Croton Water Works are owned by the municipality. And it has always held the CHINA COAST METEOROLOGICAL policy to supply water at cost, which means á sum sufficient for the interest on the bonds and for a moderate sinking fund and the necessary repairs. At a recent meeting of a committee appointed by Mayor Edson of New York to consider the subject of obtaining a bet- ter water supply some interesting facts were brought out.Ex-Senator James F. Fierce sub- mitted his plan for bringing water from the Adirondacks.. Dr. W. W. Laman remarked that the
outflow from the 2,700 square miles of the Adirondacks region was 41,000,000,000 cubic feet of water per day, or 300,000,000,000 gallons per day. Dr. Loman said that this was the purest water that could be obtained. It could be brought to New York by a canal on the cast side of the Hudson River, the grade, of which would be about six inches to the mile, giving a speed of two miles to the hour. The canal' should be large enough to bring 800,000,0^0_gal- lons of water every day. Albany, Troy, Poughkeepsie and other cities along the route could be supplied. This canal, he said, should be built by a company who world charge the city and private pariles for the water they used. The system
be could
put in operation in four years." The facts presented are interesting. But New York will doubtless find means of in- creasing her water supply without availing herself of the use of any private corporation.
It was shown at the same time that the ut most capacity of the Croton Aqueduct was for 95,000,000 gallons daily. The speed of the water in the aqueduct was stated at a miles an hour. It is now proposed to construct a new DIAH MR. EDITOR,just fancy, Oh deah!. aqueduct for the Croton Water Works at the ex- Oh deahl it is weally too good a space altogethah; pense of the city.
