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.

The bullet from the pistol pierced his v'ght lung, and lodged in the back of it 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 1 he had been assaulted, but it is now known that he passed two policemen without telling them, going on to got officer Skeene.
