Johnson announced yesterday that a check cm San Rerna rdino's outfall sewer has disproved the statement of engineers who have described the city's outflow as excessive.

Several pei -suns in addressing the city council claimed that the outflow was a high as 250 gallons per capita daily, but in a check which has been continued during the last several weeks, this figure has been reduced to about 140 gallons, the engineer said yesterday. had figured on as much as gjllons a day," said Mr. Johnson, "but the survey which we have been making tends to reduce this amount considerably. We have placed several meters nt various places on the oiull'all system In an attempt to find whether the outflow Is excessive and, if so, whence comes the greatest amount, of water. The maximum flow does not exceed 10 gallons per capita daily.

140 Gallons Is Maximum Flow "It must be considered, also, that this is the maximum, flow and not the average. The latter probably would lo in the neighborhood or 100 radons per capita, although this is not yet an established fact. This amount of flow is not excessive." The statement of Mr. Johnson is at variance with the claims of sev-oral engineers who, In appearing before the city council several weeks ago and in written statements since that time, have tried to show that San Bernardino has a heavy excess in its outflow and that as a result of this, it will be necessary to re-ducc the flow and expend more money than otherwise, would be necessary for a treatment plant. It is less expensive to treat a smaller and more concentrated outflow than to handle an unnecessary amount of water, they said.

Mr. Johnson now has meters on att56oyedBftoB5tt6-c6Bo'o the sewer lines at Thirteenth street and Arrowhend avenue, Thirteenth and 1-" streets, Wallace find and at the sewer farm. Where the heaviest flow is will not be determined by the city engineer for some time longer. He has found it nec-essarv within the last several diys to change the system of recording the outflow, substituting pencils for pens on the registry apparatus. The dampness of th manholes caused the ink to blot into the paper, making it more difficult to obtain accurate check on the meters.
