Excerpt from Universal Metering of Chicago's Water Supply: The Need for It, What It Would Accomplish The need for adopting and carrying into effect a policy of universal metering is recognized by practically every one who has given thought to the question. The following are the main points urged in support of such a policy: The Chicago Water Works is pumping an average of 260 gallons of water daily for every man, woman, and child in the city. This is about twice as much water per person as most other American cities find ample to supply their requirements. Cleveland and Milwaukee, lake cities where conditions of supply and distribution are similar to those in Chicago, and where universal metering prevails, have a daily pumpage of less than 125 gallons per person. And their service is much better than ours. Not more than half the water pumped in Chicago is ever really used. The other half is lost through waste and leakage. This loss is due to leaks in the pumps, in the mains and service pipes, and in house plumbing. It is due also in some cases to either careless or wilful waste on the part of consumers. Meters are proposed as a means of locating and checking so far as practicable this loss of water which is of no use to any one. They are not intended to discourage the use of water in abundance, and experience in other cities shows that they do not in fact discourage such use. Any one can go to Lake Michigan and take as much water as he likes. The business and the problem of the Chicago Water Works is to transport water from the lake to the premises of consumers and to deliver it under sufficient pressure to enable users, including those living upon upper floors, to get it whenever they need it.

Excerpt from The Sewerage System of Chicago Damage Caused by Large Buildings. - The construction Of the modern large buildings, and particularly the construction of curb walls extending to a depth of over 30 it. Below the surface, has caused settlement of the sewers. A recent case of this sort is the sewer in Eldridge court west of Michigan avenue, which has apparently c, ollapsed this being caused by settlement due to the construction of the Karpen building. Naturally the settlement Of the sewer, even though it may not collapse, will cause sedi mentation to take place, thereby obstructing the flow.

Excerpt from Report of the Committee of the Citizens' Association on the Main Drainage and Water Supply of Chicago: September, 1885 To the Executive Committee of the Citizens Association: The undersigned committee appointed for the purpose of investigating the subject of Main Drainage and Water Supply of Chicago, begs leave to submit the following report: A problem of the first magnitude is presented in the main drainage of a city of 700,000 inhabitants with the immediate prospect of a population of 1,000,000, and a growth of 2,000,000 within the life-time of citizens who knew Chicago as an Indian trading-post. That the city should have attained this growth without the development of an adequate official plan, for a permanent system of main drainage would be startling in this day of sanitary science, were it evident that the conditions of the problem had ever been properly apprehended. The sanitary history of Chicago is a history of makeshifts and expedients, in which official prevision has scarcely ventured beyond corporate limits to the consideration of the drainage basin of which the municipal area is but a small fraction. Even those expedients which, while involving a moderate expenditure for the relief of the present situation, might still be in harmony with a general plan, seem to be inadequately realized, or quite misapprehended. Chicago, in regard to her water supply and main drainage, is perhaps, more fortunately situated than any other of the principal cities of the country, except those on our large, rapidly-flowing rivers, which carry away the sewage at once, a condition which may here be readily duplicated.
