WHILE ADMITTING CREW TOOK
WATER H PIPE IK SAKS
LOCK m till
T BROKEN OFF
Admitting that his crew took water
from the gravity pipe line but denying
that they broke the lock off the man
hole to get access to the water, James
Hose, against whom the city water
commission has announced its Inten
tion to file criminal charges, declares
he Is guilty of no criminal Intentions.
In a statement made to the com
mission yesterday and to this paper,
he stated his belief that the lock wo
broken off the mnnHole by farm ma
chinery dragging over It "My men
Imply found the manhole In the Bora
hunt Bummerfullow which was close
by their camp, with the lock broken
and thinking no harm would come
from It, took three tank of water
from it, being careful to use clean
hose and pipe. To prevent anything
getting Into the water, they went so
far as to borrow a lock to put on It
They supposed the lock had been
broken off by machinery dragging over
it as the cover Is almost level with the
surface. Inasmuch a the commission
Permitted farmer to take water
from tbe pipe line last year, they
thought there tu no harm In their
action."
Sam nittner, whose grain Mr. Rose
was cutting at the time, expresses the
opinion that the commission acted
too hastily. He stales witnesses will
testify that the lock was broken off
when the ltose crew found the man
hole and states that he himself se
cured another lock for them in order
that they could relock ..he lid after
taking water. He declares that the
farmers along , the pipe line are in
hearty co-operation with the commis
sion in working to keep the water
pure.
Supt. Haves of the water depart
ment is not convinced that tho lock
was not deliberately broken off and
declares he will file the complaint as
soon as he can spare the time to get
the Information together. He exhibit
ed the original lock this morning,
showing the mark upon It that Indi
cate to him that It was not dragged
off the cover but was broken off after
considerable hammering. He declares
Mr. Hlttner wa familiar with the
ruling of the commission this year as
he had been notified several day be
fore the discovery of the broken lock
that the commission would not per
mit farmers to draw water from the
pipe line.
