Mayor Lane this morning Instructed
Superintendent Dodge of the city water
department to make testa of cement
main similar to those recommended for
the new pipe line whtcn will be- built
from Bull Run river to the city under
the bond act providing 13.000,000 for the
new line.
Sections of steel reinforced concrete
mains. "60 inches in diameter, will be
constructed and submitted to all sort
of water and air pressures, besides oth
er tests to determine the relative
strength of auch mains, to that of iron
. mains.
Mayor line's Idea is to prove before
the work Is ordered for the new pipe line
whether the concrete mains will be as
good or better than tne cast Iron mains.
i ne concrete main nave oecoma popu
lar In the past few years In various sec
tions of the country and. are claimed to
be stronger and more serviceable than
the old style pipes. In aoeaklns- of the

"I thought it but fair to the city and

ractora who expect to bM nn tha now
pipe line to make experimental testa
of the new style mains before going
blindly ahead without a personal knowl
edge of the new style mains. I have
been told that the steel reinforced con
crete mains have proved to be excellent
conductors of water and I thought, in
asmuch as we will probably have bids

The tests will probably be marie at
