THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, 1 HUH SPAY, SEPTEMBER 3. 1808.
THE CITY OF ROCHESTER.
Th city of Roohoster (N. T.) li one of the
moat flourishing and attractive towns In tbe
Interior or tbe country. It is located on
both, sides of tbe Genessee river, but seven
miles from Its entranoe into Lake Ontario. The
Genesaee river affords unlimited water power,
t nil advantage of which has been taken by the
Inhabitants, especially in the department of
Soar manufacture, the flouring mills being
perhaps the most extensive of their kind In tbe
United States. The 33 mills which were In
Operation in 1860 had a capacity for produolng
over 7009 barrels a day, Tbe town was settled
In 1813, and was Incorporated as acltylnlS34.
Its rapid progress in all the elements of pros
perity 1 indicated by its great increase In
poiulatlon, which In 1860 amounted to 48,000,
and ia 1885 to about 60 000. The Water Works
Company of the city, which keep even
paoe with the other Institutions of
the city, bave thrown a limited amonnt of
their first mortgage seven per cent, bonds npon
the Philadelphia market. These reliable and
profitable securities may be obtained of Olen-
dennlng A Davis, tbe agents in this elty, at No
48 8, Third street, at the low rate of 87U per
cent, with the accrued interest from the first o
July last. The interest is payable seml-annu
ally, in January and July, and altogether the
bonds present one of the most desirable Invest
menu now obtainable. In this eonneotlon, the
following correspondence is of Interest:
Mr. A. H. Nioolay wrote, July 28, 1808, to
John Williams, Esq., President of the Uooh
kstkb Watbb Wobks Compant, desiring to
knew the condition of the Water Works of that
elty, also to ascertain the time when the com
pany contemplated introducing the water In
the City of Rochester, towhioh hereoelved the
following reply, together with a long report of
the Cbltf Engineer of the Company, under
Whose direction the works are being eon
atruoted, giving an explicit and interesting ao
count la detail of the enterprise, and furnish
ing information worthy of perusal, a copy ol
Which Is herewith attached.
Rochester, August 3, 1863.
Mr. A. H. NIcolay Sin Yours asking mror
nation respecting tbe Rochester Water Works
Company, was reoelved a few days slnoe.
Having been confined to my house by sick
ness for the past two months, I conld not an
swer you as fully as desired. I, therefore, ad
dressed the Chief Engineer in charge, request
ing him to give me a full statement, which I
end herewith, and have every reason to believe
the repoi t to be a oorreot statement of the work.
Yours, respectfully,
JOHN WILLIAMS,
President Rochester Water Works Co.
Chief Engineer's Report.
Rochester, n. Y., July 81, 1888.
John Williams, Esq., President Rochester
Water Works Company Dear Sir: In com
pliance with your request, and in accordance
With the letter of Mr. NIcolay, of New York,
Which yon bave handed me, I beg to submit the
following report on the present condition of the
work:
At tbe commencement of the undertaking, it
was confidently believed that tbe works woull
be so far completed as to let on the water by
tbe first or abont the middle of the present
month; but, notwithstanding It has been
pushed forward with great energy and Judlolons
management, many impediments have been
met with, and causes herein explained have
presented themselves, delaying the completion
of the work. Legislation has been necessary In
order to render the securities ol the company
unquestionably safe. The corporation has ex
isted since 1852; the parties interested deemed
It advisable to have every act (lnoludlng the con
tract for building tbe work) legalized by the
legislature up to the present time. This has been
done.
Considerable trouble has presented itself In
procuring tbe rights of way, In consequence of
tbe beliet among the farmers, agitated by mill
owneis on the sueam ofBupply, that the mills
would be deprived of water. All this trouble
has been obviated by the decision to go nine or
ten miles nearer tbe Hemlock Lake, and by tbe
location of the large reservoir near Richmond
Mills, which comprises an area of fitly acres,
and will hold when completed, and Indepen
dent of tbe reservoir at East Henrietta (twenty
acres in extent), a sufficient supply for the city
el Rochester for the whole dry season.
It is the intention to store water in these re
servoirs when the water in tbe lakelsabundant
(and the mills are even endangered by the
swollen stream), for use in the dry season, when
it would interfere with tbe working of tbe
many mills on the line to take the supply from
the outlet.
Since this plan baa been adopted, mill owners
and farmers are giving t very facility to the prose,
eution of the work. The great oostaole to an
amicable adjustment of right? of way has been
removed; ttie vexed question or Interfering
with the right of mill owners, which has done
more than anything else to retard the work in
its early history, Is entirely and satisfactorily
adjusted; and by taking the water in all its
nrlly from tbe gravelly outlet of Hemlock
ake, the only prejudloe tbe citizens of Ro
chester have baa to the water la most agreea
bly dispelled; and when It becomes generally
known that the company will get the supply
from the lake, tbe fact will operate moit benefi.
trlally on the securities and public confidence in the
eharacttr of the work.
The foregoing will fully explain the reason
why the water is not to be Introduced as soon
as has been expected.
As concerns the mechanical construction of
the work, notwithstanding It was required to
be completed In July, and every means which
energy and money oonid command have been
actively used. It has been impossible, in my
pinion, to push the work to a more advanoed
state than It is at present in.
Large quantities of materials have had to be
procured; maohlnery for erecting pipe bad to be
erected, in order to make even a proper com
mencement to so large an undertaking; la
borers have been extremely soaroe during the
whole season, notwithstanding the contractor
has procured men from New York and other
places at different times, and is paying twenty
five cents per day higher wages than is paid on
any other work; notwithstanding those diffi
culties, the eonstant Importation of emigrants
from New York, has kept up a very large force,
and tbe work has progressed with great ra
pidity. After the completion of haying and
harvesting, there will be a great increase in
the force employed upon the work, and the latter
part of the work wlU be completed with dee
patch. The work may be included in the following
divisions, viz: The distributing pipe In the
city; the distributing reservoir near tbe city
line, the Henrietta Reservoir, seven and a-half
miles from the elty; the storing reservoir near
Richmond Mills; tbe supply main, seven and
a-half miles from the oily to the Henrietta
Reservoir, of sixteen miles from the Henrietta
Reservoir to the storing reservoir, and one-half
mile from the storing reservoir to tbe souroe.
There are abont ten miles ot east-Iron pipe

Of the sixteen miles of conduit pipe to be laid
