When Mr. Moore rccentlv siiRRcstcd that the citv mn ultlmntely seek new wnter Kiippl source s other than the SelnnlMll and Delnwnre rivers, ho was merely voicing publicly a policy thnt Chief Davis hns long been nt work upon and thnt is lendv for nction as soon ns municipal fiimneiois see fit to provide the neecssnrj funds. Slore than hcen ears ago, the ninnkcnburfi ndmliilstration clcotcd much time nnd thought to the problem of scenting nn engineer of sufheient ability to guide thq fortunes of the rltj's great plant.

At the same time he devoted miiiiv months to stiid.v of possible new i-ourccs of supply, other tlinn the rivers. With the. ndvent of the Smith regime, Mr. Davis was well under way on his new study nnd his letention wus altogether on the ground of fitness. At n time when such commonplace matters ns water needb were- over shailnvv til by talk of n comprehensive transit sv&tem, convention hall, art palace, etc., Mr. Davis repcatedij went before Councils' finance com mittee and demanded nction looking toward an increase of upplv nnd ex tensions o grow lug neighborhoods. He advocutecT a universal wnter metering sjslem ns a preventive of waste; the taking over of independent water plants doing business within 'the cty limits and the construction of ex- icniions 10 existing plants, uown to date he has succeeded in bringing about one reform, namely the compelling of certain classes of manufacturers to buy water from the city on n meter service MAN HURT BY AUTO Harry 131dcr, twenty -four jears old, of North Twelfth stieet, was struck down by nn nutomobile at Haines street and York road today and suffered n fracture of the right leg.
