M. After a little experience a leak can be cxuite acL'urately located by listening to the sound of the water passing through partially closed valves on the mains and service pipes.
The value of the tables on pages 103 and 104 largely consists in the fact that we are forced to admit that leakage and waste exists to a great extent, and are thus driven to the necessity of greater vigilance and more careful examinations. This is our own case at present, and I am confi- dent that Ave will soon be ab
...le to locate this waste and stop it.
Mr. Whitman. — From 1871 to 1887, in furnishing water to St. Louis, an hourly statement was kept of the flow of water into the distribution system. We found the same trouble that Mr. Brush has found, viz. , a large consumption at night. During the last four years we have taken up about 20 miles of distribution mains located in various parts of the city, and I do not think we found any leaks at the joints. Of course we DISCUSSION ON WATER MAINS AND METERS. 109 have breaks, but the point I want to make is this, that I think the joint we use is the most perfect thing that can be obtained, considering its cost and facility of making, and that leaks of any amount are not due to the joints.
