TO he Editor Of tie Commercial:
have read with great interest the articles in
your columns urging Council to act promptly
and decsively to protect life and property on the
4th of July. The order loving portion Of our
people have long been subjected to tho dangon
incident TO the reckless celebration OF the day,
and have each year hoped that some effective
means would be used to restrain the noise and
danger.
Many cities throughout the country, are pass
ing stringent laws, strictly prohibiting the use
of firearms or fireworks in the public streets.
Our city at last awakened to this important
matter, by offering bill IA Council regarding it,.
This is well as far az It goes, but / speak for
thousands of property owners by asking Council
to add-"ire cracker, chaser, rocket, or any
other article that carries fire away from the inn
mediate place of its putting on" by the former
you protect life--now add the latter and you Sc
cure property. If not forbidden entirely. IT
least require that they shall not be put of with
in one or two hundred feet of any building.
This is just demand from those who pay the
the city taxes and who make up its material
wealth. ORpLR.

WORK To BEGIN THIS MONTH, rRoBAnLy--InE CITY
FINANCES SAID TO BE IN A ooSDiTIlN TO WAR
RANT THE COMMENSURATE OF THE WORK.
1t looks probable that sometime during the
present month work will be heguu upon the pro-
posed new city reservoir at 10th and Rodney
streets. The city has already obtained possess
sion of the land upon which it is to be located
and the commencement of the work has only
been held in abeyanco unnl such time the
city finances would warrant the undertaking.
That time, it is thought, has now arrived The
bonds from the sale of which the money il to | o
derived for the prosecution OF the work are nO t
yet sold, it is true, and it Is not probable that
they will be soon, but it IL anticipated that the
city treasury will be able 10 advance the money
for at least a beginning of the work.
The city finances arc now approaching n
easy condition. This month, tho collection Ot
city and school taxes for the current year be-
gins, and if the receipts into the treasury d. :
ring July of this year come up to what they hos o
been i'll previous years, they will foot up
ut least 100000. But out OF til i
sum 100000 will have to be taken to pay OH
notes in bank and ether floating debts, and
100000 will bs seC apart for the use Of the
Board of Education, leaving a surplus IN the
Treasury of Sl00,00O, if the collections are
made, which is reasonably certain.
Another favorable condition of the finances is
| the fact that Council las no outstanding bills
other than those alluded to in
the 100000 aggregated above, and
the contemplated Improvements Of tho year,
while they will go ON fass a- possible, are not
of that magnitude as OF several years past and
will not require the immediate outlay Of so
great all amount of money.
These statements arc obtained from the
Chairman of the Finance Committee, Mr. Pick
els, and may be regarded. we presume, as his
views upon the question. lie d.il,ul.ios in the
way are that the money nov To be received ON
/ tnN il flta
and il used Tor that purpose, deficiency will
be created, again, as iaHt year also, that "be-
| ginning" of the work amounts to no practical
value, but will simply involve present expend.
ture and further that the proposition Is un-
derstOod to be that tile work III not TO be done

STRIKE AT THE II. d Ii. YARDS - We are in
formed that on Tuesday the ship carpenters at
the Harlan Il Hollingsworth yards refused to
work at the reduction in their wages which the
firm had thought proper to make from SO to
so per day. and all but twelve left the ward.
Yesterday the company concluded to comply with
the demand of their employees, and the wages
were fixed at the old figures, and the worllnen
returned.
Tomorrow evening, a meeting of the Bache-
Tor Club will be held at the boat house. and it il
hoped there will be a full attendance.
The tire from one of the wheels of kind
ling wood wagon came of yesterday at Fifth and
Market streets, which caused some trouble to
to the driver.
