Dr. Claude A. Smith ami 1 >r. .1. F. Kennedy, Atlanta's health officers, ar -.- preparing a letter to the water board today in which they severely condemn the ' xistence of the open vaults around the water reservoir at the city pump ing station. The doctors made an inspection of the conditions yesterday. They declar ed that the purity of the city’s entire water supply was endangered. Following The Georgian’s editorial on this situation, the members of the wa ter board have decided t > renew their tight before council to get the land on which these vaults nr-> located. Several Vaults Near Reservoir. <'ommlsisoiit r W. .1. Davis, who i„ leading the tight, declared that the board would either get funds to pur chase the land or it would let every citizen of Atlanta know that the mem bers of council are responsible for *ne existing peril to the water supply. Several of tin vaults border on th. coagulating basins, which is the first part of the tiltration system. The oth ers border on the big reservoir. Tlti-ii' are about fifteen vaults m property that drains toward th. stored water. "It is ridiculous for the city not to control all the water shed around Its reservoirs." said Dr. Claude A Smith. It would be' difficult for m<- to con demn too strongly the conditions around the waterworks plant." XV. Z. Smith, general manager of wa terworks, su’d the water board re-peat . die bad urged council to provide* funds for the purchase- of this luud. 11. said th.-re* was about sl4. abtaine il from tin- sale of water bonds which would lee a good start on the purchase price of all th. property d.-sir.-d, Monee Available. Declares Smith. He said this money was lying Idle and that the board had no such useful purpose to which it could apply the money as the purchase- of this land. Acting Mayor John S. i'andb*t de ck. t. *1 that the property was needed badly. It consists of one block and two small triangles, surrounded by city property. He said It not only was m e deii to i rot. et the city’s wate r sup ply but that with it tile city could build arounel th. waterworks plant one of th. most beautiful parks in th. South. Y. st.-'day .afternoon Mr. Smith. Mt Davis ami the two health electors ye, nt out to the plant to inspect the condi tions.

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 1912. 10 INVESTIGATE NILKJIGOTT City Board Takes Up Inability of Gus Castle to Get Dairy Service. Continued from Page One. Brandon, of the board of health. "I do i not know just how the city can regu late- it. but away will be found.” Dr. Visanska believes Atlant i needs better milk than that now on the mar ket, in spite of the- present system of Inspections and regulations. He favors the establishment of a "Walker-Gor don” laboratory, similar to those now i operated Ip sixteen Eastern cities, which will furnish milk for infants' use. I This milk is prepared to meet certain specifications on a physician's prescrip tion, and can be made to suit th.* indi vidual need of any child. Such a labo . rator-y could b<- established by the Chamber of Commerce, the city or by a private flrm or corporation. "There is no doubt that some action is needed to insure pure milk for At lanta bibles,” said Ivan Allen, one of the chamber committee. "Take one ease, for instance, in West Peachtre. street last summer. A home there was stricken by ty phoid and four memb. i« of the family were dangerously ill, one after the > other. It required several physicians i and trained nurses to Save their lives and the cost to that family was enor mous. The neighborhood blamed bad sewers and eve y thing else, but a pa tient investigation showed that the man ■ who sold that family milk had a severe ‘ case of typhoid in his home, was hitn -1 self suffering from typhoid as he deliv- I ored the milk, and the milk itself, when • analyzed, was found reeking with ty phoid germs. City inspection had not protected that family." . Another tr- tnber of the committee pointed out on.- way to cop. with a milkmen's boycott. "Let the names of all dealers com -1 bitting in such a movement be made publie." he said. "Then let customers 4 • efuse to buy from them. A cotrsuniers' boycott would break the milkmen's i league in 24 hours.' f A. O. GATES FuSILEERS OFFICER. Friends of A. <> Gates are congrat ulating him on his election to the sec ond lieutenancy of the Fulton Fuslleers. Mr Gates Is a we.l known young ln i stirance man Fo ■ some time he has - b. . n quartermaster sergeant of the Fu- ■ileers. and is an expert rifleman. The j company Is now perfecting pi.ms to at ; tend th. inauguration ot President Wil son, HURTSTINGINGLY RAPS MIL AND POM CD. It Is an Avaricious Corporation! to Which the City Has Sold Birthright, He Says. Joel Hurt, president of the Atlanta Realty Corporation. confirming his an-I ; nouncement that he would build an in dependent power plant to furnish power I to the entire city, if not granted a per . mit to erect one for himself, today de nounced the Georgia Railway and Pow er Company as an avaricious corpora tion. to whom Atlanta had sold its birthright. He declared that present power rates were three times as high as they should be, asserting that he ctyjkl furnish poW ier for. the operation of his new sky j scraper at one cent per kilowatt hour, ‘ while the power company charged three i cents. j Mr. Hurt said he was determined to I show that he was no bluffer. He de- I clared that when he owned the ear company ten years ago he had decided that the capital should not be Increased more than $2,000,000, believing that the city and the company’s employees should share in its prosperity. Under the present regime he understood that the total capitalization was well over $80,000,000. • Declares He's “No Bluffer.” Accrding to Mr. Hurt, the Georgia Railway and Power Company paid lawyers SBO,OOO to convince the city that his (Mr. Hurt's) offer to give the city all profits over six per cent was gold brick. “If tile records of this corporation were revealed,” said the capitalist, "it would make the most startling expose in tlie history of the United States. I am no bluffer and I will see this thing through to a finish.” Mr. Hurt said the independent plant he had in mind would be large enough to furnish power to all and that It would be a real competitor. 3-Cent Car Fares Enough, He Says. He declared that street car fares in Atlanta should be three cents and that the employees of the car company were being paid just about half enough. At lanta, he said, would have to pay for the enormous capitalization of the Georgia Power Company. Mr. Hurt’s decision and announce ment came as the result of the opposi tion of Preston Arkwright, president of tlie power company, to a permit which Hurt wanted from the street committee of council to erect and op erate a $150,000 power plant in connec tion with ills $2,000,000 Edgewood ave nue project. Arkwright Objects. Mr. Hurt yesterday asked tlie streets committee for a permit to lay conduits across Edgewood avenue, Exchange place and Ivy street to connect his va rious buildings with his proposed pri vate power plant. Mr. Arkwright pro tested that it was illegal to use the streets for private interests, and that if Mr. Hurt were allotved to operate such a system he would by able to take the cream of the electric business with out being liable for franchise taxes and public utility regulations. “Would you be willing for me to start a public utility plant and get fran chises?” asked Mr. Hurt “I would," replied Mr. Arkwright. “I'll do it." said Mr. Hurt. Sees Room For Competitor. The streets committee postponed making a decision on the request of Mr. Hurt until the next meeting. Mr. Hurt said today lie would have some startling evidence to give the commit tee at that meeting. He said a com petitive plant to the Georgia Railway and Power Company was one of the most attractive propositions he knew of in Atlanta. Mr. Arkwright said today that Mr. Hurt had a perfect right to build a pri vate plant, if he wanted to. He said lie did not care to make any further state ment. DEATHS AND~FUNERALS~ Mrs. J. M.

(‘lay, the silent wife slayer really Is a, maniac or whether he merely is acting | the role’ in a desperate effort to escape the gallows was given hew interest to day when it become known that two | mysterious notes had been found in the slayer’s cell, in which he is urged to I "keep it up—you are acting it tine.” I The Identity of the writer is not known i to the jailers. i Clay recently, in what is thought to have been a fit of anger, protested ■ against a cup of cold coffee given him. this being the only time he has uttered a word since he shot his wife to death on the night of May 12 last. Since the coffee Incident he has remained abso lutely mum. as before. Jail officials and officers interested in the case believe Clay will break his long silence and talk when he mounts the gallows on Friday, December 13, to ex piate his crime. So far no move of any kind lias been made to stay the execution. I TROLLEY COMPANY URGED TO END DELAY OF MARIETTA PAVING I nless Fulton officials can induce the Georgia Railway and Power Company to change its methods in relaying its tracks in tiiat portion of Marietta street which Is being regraded and paved by the county, that thoroughfare will be a morass during the winter months, ac cording to T.
