THE SPRING BROOK
COMPANY'S PLANS
Alexaader Potter, of New York, Choses
as lu Chief Engineer.
WORK THAT HE HAS UNDERTAKEN
He lias Established His Hcadquur

the Duties of His Poition--Co-structioB
of a Pumping Statioa at
West PitUteu Has lJcguoWill Dr

"Alexander Potter, of New York city,
one of the most prominent civil engin
eers in the- country, has been selected
as chief engineer of th Spring Brook
Water Supply company, and he has al
ready entered upon the duties of the of
flee, making this city his headquar
ters," says the Pittstou Gazette.
"Mr. Potter Is by no means a stranger
here, he having been -the designer of
the sewer systems for Plttston and
West Plttstcn, and having spent con
slderable time here during the past
two years. That he Is well qualified
for the Important work to which he has
now been assigned is evidenced by the
fact that he lias designed and con
structed water works In all of the fol
lowing cities and towns: Orvllle, O.;
Winchester, W. Vs.; Piedmont, W. Va.;
Monroe, N. Y.; Montgomery, N. Y.;
Cornwall-on-Hudson, N. Y.; Sietuavllle,
W. Va.: McDonald. Pa,, and other
places. He has also designed water
works for the following places: Evans
vllle, Ind.; Corry, Pa.: Elkln. W. Va.;
Grafton, W. Va.; Cape Vincent. N. Y.;
Reafena. Ontario; LeRoy, N. Y.: High
Point, N. C, and other places. Be
sides, Mr. Potter has designed sewer
systems for no less than thirty places.
HIS GREATEST TASK.
"The work which he has now under
taken Is the greatest he has ever had,
and he naturally takes considerable
pride In the fact that he was selected
from a hest of applicants. Mr. Potter
will have charge of all engineering
work for the supply company, with sev
eral corps of engineers at work under
his direction. The work thus far laid
out consists of the construction of the
pumping station for the liver bank in
West Pittstou, the laying of the new
30-Inch main for nine miles down the
west side of the river, the laying of a
big extra main across the river at this
place, and the construction of new stor
age dams at Spring Brook.
"Some of thlB work Is already under
way. Mr. Potter said this morning
that he would be on the ground per
sonally for at least six months. He
has at : resent as his chief assistant
John Pownall, of New York city. Sev
eral engineering corps are now in the
field at Spring Brook, but before Mr.
Potter goes there he will get the plans
completed for the new pumping station
on Susquehanna avenue. West Plttston.
"The site of the new pumping station
presents a lively appearance. A large
gang of men are at work, and with two
steam derricks and horses and carts are
rapidly excavating for the pump house.
The detailed plans are being made at
Mr. Potter's office at New York, but
an Idea can be given of the general
plan.
SIZE OF THE PUMP HOUSE.
"The pump house will be 40x60 fi-et
lu size. There will be concrete founda
tions, and the walls up to the level of
the street will also be of concrete. The
remaining story will be of brick and
iron, and one corner will be set oft
with some neat design, so that the
building, it is hoped, will add to, rather
than detract from the appearance of
the neighborhood.
"The boMer house on the lower side
of Susouehanna avenue will also be of
brick, Susquehanna avenue will also be
of brick, about 65x40 feet In size. The
building will not be parallel with the
street, but will be parallel with the
railroad track now on the ground,
which la to be made permanent, for the
purpose of bringing coal to the boilers.
The end or corner of the building near
est to Susquehanna avenue will be set
off with a tower or fancy work of some
kind."

MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Review.
New York. May 28. There was an In- ;
crease In business at the Stock ex
change today, but the activity was at
the expense of values. There were
several unfavorable factors at work,
the more important being the disaster
at St. Louis, with its great loss of life
and the enormous destruction of prop
erty: reports of heavy gold shipments
by Saturday's European steamers; the
uncertainty surrounding the political
situation, and rather poor statement of
the Burlington and Quincy for April,
which was due to the light movement
of corn. I ne professional operators
laid stress on the great storm at the
west, but they made little Impression
on what are known as St. Louis proper
tics, except Mobile and Ohio and Lac
lede Gas; the former dropped - to .0,
and Laclede Gas H1-.- to 2.'aJ3. Louis
ville and Nashville lost about a point,
London selling being mainly responsi
ble for the decline. Foreign houses
were also sellers of St. Paul and other
Issues listed abroud. Favorable news,
such as the decision by the United
States circuit court in favor of the
Joint Trutllc association and the pros
pects of an early release of the North
ern Pacific and Heading properties to
their owners through foreclosure sale,
failed to exert the sligiitest liillueiice.
Sugar, as usual, led the list with trans
actions of 43,M)0 shares in u grand to
tal of 150,720. The stock fell from T.i
to 12m. uud rallied to and closed at
121Ta. The weakness of German granu
lated and rumors of a break In raws
abroad. Induced some celling of the
stock. Reports from Chicago of fresh
cutting of prices by the outside manu
facturers, weakened Tobacco, which
sold down a point to 65&. loiter there
was a rally to 65'h. There was moder
ate pressure to Hell the railway list,
and prices droimcd '4 to 1 per cent.,
the declining being most marked lu the
Grangers, Internationals. General Elec
tric. Chicago Gas uud Jersey Central.
Ill the Inactive stocks. Buffalo, Roch
ester and Pittsburg preferred brought
ugalnst 61. the last previously re
ported sale. Colorado Fuel fell l"t to
26. Rubber preferred l'i to ,S27i, and
Metropolitan Traction 1 to 10S. The
market closed Irregular, and In the
main weak. Net changes show losses
of . to 2 per cent, for the day.
