East Side Stlburbs Begging
!vf for Extension of Bull Bun
: Mains-rBoard Action, De
layed by Supremo Court
Decision. 1 V
Every Mat aide suburb la clamoring
for Bull Run. The water board la over
whelmed .with petltlona asking far the
extension of" water malna Into nearly
yery outlying district, from Ken 11
worth on the aoutheaat to the penln
Jul on the- northeast. The water board
'lean do nothing until the case now pend
jflng In the supreme court, affecting the
1 extension of water mains Is decided.
"Under the provision that paaaed laat
junv aays ur. u. h. Karrety or ma
water board." the I extension of water
mains would have been accomplished
in tne same way aa street improve
ments axe made and sewers are built.
The property tributary to the proposed
route of a big main would be assessed
for the main and the abutting property
would be assessed for laying laterals.
"At present new mains must be laid
with the funds that come In from the
rate charges Instead of an assessment
upon those benefited by the new ex ten
Ion. As a result there are a great
many extensions that cannot be made.
"Were the amendiaenta to the charter
In force now we should have been able
to make a great many needed exten
sions. It would have taken 600.000 to
make au the extensions that were pe
tltlnna1 for last Tear w-heir tha avail
able funds for that purpose were only
aoout xaau.ouo. Another item mat
would have been favorable to the con
sumers at largo is the fact that a great
reduction in water rates would havo
been made possible.
"It Is quite likely that the en pre me
court will affirm the decision of Judeo
Cleland but until it does wa are unable
to act one way or another. If It la
affirmed, and I believe It will be, we
will at once get busy with those pe
titions and grant extensions as far an
wa can and where we think they are
Deeded moat.
"We are quite busy with other mat
ters, among others the controversy over
our rights on Bull Run river. It has
been necessary for us to engage a
a special attorney to defend the city In
tms case as the city attorney nas nia
hands full with the other matters per
taining to the city's affairs."
Dr.'Raffety was required to go Into
n extended discussion on the effects
of electrolysis at the meeting of the
United East Side club fend tell of the
methods that have been adopted to
f re vent it from destroying water mains,
le Bald the street railway company had
expressed a willingness to do its part
In controverting the effects of elec
trolysis without any cost charged up
to the city.
ERECT BUILDING
FOR HEW THEATRE
rians Under Consideration
for Construction of Two
. Story Concrete Edifice.
The theatre project which W. It.
Morgan. and a few other capitalists in
terested In tha welfare of the east aide
have been talking of tha past few
weeks la still very much in the air. The
Holman mock, at tne nortneaat comer
of East Washington and Grand avenue.
has been Inspected and found to be im
practicable. The plan Is to build a two-story re
enforced ' concrete building somewhere
In tha vicinity of East Stark street and
Grand avenue. Mr. Morgan and others
believe that such a venture could be
made to pay at the very least 6 per
cent on the Investment, If not a great
deal more at the start If such a plan
should be adopted Mr. Morgan has sig
nified bis intention of suscribing to
$10,000 worth of the stock.

and the repair of the Madison street
bridge.
''Many people believe that the Madi
son bridge Is dangerous," said Whitney
L. Boise, "and while I do not think it
is in danger of falling down within a
year or two, it is a fact that it is rapid

of voting for two new bridges at once
and regarding which the east side is
practically unanimous In their belief
hat they are neceasary.
