Greensboro, June 16-Superintendent
of the City Water Works, W A Ser
geant this morning closed a contract
for the necessary engines, boilers,
pumps, etc., for the new water supply
at Reedy Fork. . included in the con
tract which was made with the Greens
boro Supply Company, are 2 100 h p
High Pressure Brownell boilers. The
machinery is to be delivered Septemler
1st by which time the new reservoir
will be completed. The exeavation f or J
tws reservoir has just been finished and
the cement work will begin Saturday.
The bole is a big one, 800 feet square
by 16 feet deep, having when cemented
a capacity of 20,000,000 gallons. When
ready for use, the new water supply,
will be a supplementary one to the
present system, will have cost $140,000
and will give the city water enough to
meet demands, at the present rapid
rate of increase of population for 20
years to come. The last monthly re
port received Sunday from the State
Chemist pronounced the Greensboro
water "excellent."
Mark Cotton, the negro who was
seriously shot by Alexander Landreth
alias Bill Bailey, another negro, Tues
day night, was removed to St. Leo's
hospital yesterday. There was but
little hope for him yesterday but to
wards night he rallied and the chances
for his recovery are now improved.

The ball has not been extracted. There
is a well grounded theory' that the
whole object of the fracas was to en
trap and murder-police officer Skeene,
who has bean active in ferreting out
criminals in the ffarnerville section,
and that the shot Mark Cotton received
was intended for the officer. Cotton
had gone after an officer reported that

he had been assaulted, but it is now
known that he passed two policemen
without telling them, going on to got
