To the Editor of the Observer.
Dear Sir I see In the Chronicle
of August 11 a communication written
by or for Mrs. Zuber regarding the
accusations made against her for the
misappropriation of the city water. In
the first place I wish to answer Mrs
Zuber for my own defense and nothing
else. To begin with she says that the
Water Supt. put a water meter on i
dead pipe leading into her nea rest
dene; thla I wish to state was some
what of a mistake on the part of Mrs.
Zuber from the fact that the pipe in
queation le the pipe leading to the res
IJenceof AV Oliver (which by the
way it also the property of Mrs. Z.)
and this tame dead pipe whioh she em-
phazlsee ao strong ie on the same oon
neotion from the olty main and reach
es Into tbe basement of her new reel
dence on the corner of Q and 7th streets
and what seemei so strange to the
Water Supt. v as that she made eucb
serious objections to having water me
ters put on the pipes to this particular
house.
I wish to state further that there
never was a meter on the pipe whioh
she says was a dead pipe until the corn.
pletloa of tbe house and her application
tor water. Now in regards tbe meter,
which was put on tbe servioe pipe
leading to the brick house on .Wash
ington avenue being put on wrong and
registering backwards, this whs the
case, but by way of explauatton I wish
to say tbat I had a man employed the
day the meter was put on at tbe brick
house and be may have made a mis
take, but the question presents itself
to me why the same parties that con
neoted tbe pipes belonging to Mrs.
Zuber to the city pipes could not make
the necessary changes to maket'.e me
ter read backwards as well. Mrs. Zu
ber goes on to aay tbat she was charged
with 19 for nine houses and f 1 for
meter rent, now then Mrs. Zuber has
not, to may knowledge, been to tbe
Recorder's office since this particular
controversy came up and which was
referred to the water committee lor
adjustment, and I am informed by the
Recorder tbat tbe charges for meter
rental was tbe same that all other per
sons pay wbo use meter, belonging to
the city, whioh would be cent
per month ; so that the pnblio can
readily see tbat there has been a mia -take
made In the way Mrs. Zuber has
understood the matter or she made tbe
mistake Intentionally. Hhe also says
that she was charged three dollars for
the water tent on tbe house on O
street. Now will say in connection
with thla water question on the O
street bouse tbat Mrs. Zuber stated
positively that she would have three
houaes to use water from tbia same
service pipe on whicb the me'er
attached, and to all those who are
familiar with tbe water ratea or tbe
city It will be seen that the - charges
are Identical with the rates provided
In tbe ordinance regulating tbe price
of tbe same. And In answer to the
question "what do yoa think they
want me to do any way !" I will say
that she must pay for the water she
usee ao long as it passes through a
water meter; until such time as ehe
oan make tbe city council believe tbat
she la entitled to a better water rate
than anyone else In the city from tbe
(act that she cannot hear very good, as
Mr. Chllda would have the city fathers
believe. Now regarding the statement
tbat she wanted the Water. Supt, to
