CORRESPONDENCE.
Editors Courier:

Editors Courier:
In your article relating to the Oshkosh
fire, you call tho attention of your
readers to the insecurity of our own
city against like calamity. The 70.
marks are timely, and should be often
repeated. Our Western cities, large
and small, fail to provide adequate
security against fire in the ratio OF
their increase Of values subject to this
great destructive agent.
Young aud growing cities like Osh.
kosh and our own, should carly adopt
system Of water supply equal in
convenience and effectiveness to the
gas light supply, Such . wster sys-
tenn should DO planned aud at once
started, with largo ana expansive
views, and Increased yearly, or in PRO-
portion to the increase of population
end wealth,
This is not only highly important
bu, perfectly practicable. Alasl how
often 10 It carelesply overlooked until
more than half the most valuable prop.
effy Of the city e swept away.
What would Oshkosh have given on
that terrible day could they have taken
two streams Of water from each street
corner Supplemented by like streams
from private property, and concen-
trated . dozen Of them upon one or
two points in the path Of the flames
Who can ray that nearly all Of that
$500, 600 would not have been saved
Yet, Mr.. Editor. . judicious expendi-
ture OF . moderate sum In water
works would have placed water at
their command - described above,
with great and good results. After .
great fire the cry 10 water! water! in
adequate supply Of water! What
shall be done? Then with sigh We
patch up our comparatively worthless
trappings and subside until the next
alarm. II this visor Do individuals
act thus7 Then why should corpora.
tions2 Our citizens should accept the
lesson taught by the great fire 1t Osh-
kosh, and early see that . system OF
water supply Is inaugurated that is
well up to, and beyond, our risk Of
destruction by this fearful devouring
agent.
A mile or two Of water main laid
In tho business portions Of the city,
with hydrants, plugged for two streams,
At each corner, and these connected
with Holly pumps driven by our pro-
posed water power, would send our
fire risk down to its minimum, and
with IL the rate Of insurance now 90
burdensome to our business men. The
cost would not be beyond our reach,
while our security against fire would
be real, and not . myth, as 10 the case
now.
Your reservoir system il good, but
perhaps too expensive. We should
have one or the other, though not be-
fore that cheapest and best Of oil mo.
tive power, our water power, 10 built.
Push this great enterprise to COM
pletion, and the ease and rspidity
with which an efficient fire protection
would develop itself would be sur
prising and highly gratifying to al
friends Of our future progress. security
and prosperity. A CITIZEN.

The Cauta Susana Estate Again DESTROYED

HAVANA, Sept. n.-A new exploit of the
insurgents has been reported to-day. They

Las Cruces, called Caracas, and have again de-
stroyed the great "Cauta Susana" estate In the
same neighborhood. which had been burned
some time ago. and which being again put
10 working order. The workmen employed on
the repairs hao TO escape as best they could.
The owner OF another OF the previously de-
stroved estates had gone to considerable ex-
pense TO replace the burned buildings by iron
structures. and considered himself secure, no
doubt, but the rebels have again attacked the
place, and caused him g. lose his faith In iron
by reducing the new ed ihces to the same ruin
Gus state as their predecessors OF stone and
wood
The military authorities In the Villa. are again
complaining that the Insurgents are favored by
the country people. even by Sp niards who pre-

The Work OF the syndicate Nearly Completed
A Favorable showing.

SAN Francisco, Sept. 15.-Tho Syndicate
OF the Bank OF California have very nearly com
pleted the work OF investigating the affairs Of
that Institution, and are now engaged more
especially In measures of organic ,tion with
view to resumption. There are still some mat
ters requiring future ex animation, but they are
not of sufficient importance TO affect the general
result. On account OF the favorable responses
OF the creditors as to giving such time for the
settlement OF their claims as will enare he
bank to realize on its assets on favorable terms,
II /. quite probable that the assets will he found
sufficient to discharge the Indebtedness. and
perh ips pay twenty per cent, or tl,OOJOO0, to
the stockholders. The confidence felt bv the
peo le at large In the gentlemen cpuuo-ing the
Syndicate n gone far to bring about this com
var lively prosperous state OF ~ ira. and has
prevented such IN onslaught upon the resources
Of the bank a. would have resulted In disas-

millions to the depositors. The outlook now Ia
very encouraging, and It Is believed that with

affairs will be on an easier basis then for a long
