CALL MONEY LITTLE HIGHER

NEW YORK, August So.-With a
three days holiday interval in the mar
ilket impending. operators were inclined
to reduce their outstanding commit
nients or. In the case of smaller class
of traders. to retide them altogether.
The market proved unresponsive to any
Influences that would have helped the
bears to reduce prices Call money
was moderately affected by the prepar-
atoms for the monthly settlements
and by the fact that loans made at
the Stock Exchange to-day carry over
to next Tuesday by reason of the holt
day The slightly higher rates for loans
of this class that were charged re-
eeived slight attention, however.
The estimates of the currency move
nlent for the week indicated an uneN-
pectedly large balance of receipts from
the interior sufficient, in fact, to ma
terially modify the Indicated loss in
hank cash from the Subtreasury oper-
ations and the shipments to Canada,
which have taken si,37S,Ooo.
The resumption of the hearing in
the standard Oil case next week was
used by the bears as tending to have
harmful effect on prices when bust
ness is resumed next Tuesday.
The reports late in the day that cop
per producers and large consumers had
come together on basis for important
sales of the metal which might break
the deadlock in that trade, had tonic
effect on the market and completed
the unwillingness of the bears to leave
open short contracts. The days eN-

by proht-taking and the closing tone
was rather easy.

WATER FRANCHISE GRANTED.

The village board met in
regular session Monday night
and allowed the usual number of
bills. The resignation of M. F.
Fuchs as a member of the board
was accepted and George ].
Terhaar was elected to fill the
vacancy. After a few minor
matters were disposed of the
ordinance granting the water
franchise was taken up and
passed, after which the board
adjourned.
The act of the board in grant
ing the water franchise meets
with the hearty approval of prac-
tically all of our citizens as
everyone realizes the urgent
need of system of the kind for
our city. The water company
mas sixty days time in which to
meet and accept the franchise
and we have it from a responsible
source that there will be no
doubt of its acceptance. The
trouble in the money market will
probably hold active work on the
water system back until next
spring but by the time the
weather will permit of outside
work the company will have its
business in shape to begin work
on the plant. Just how long it
will take to put the system in
operation is not known but if
things go right the city will
perhaps be enjoying the ad-
vantages of a water supply by
this time next year. We hope so
at any rate.

INDIANS CAN LEASE THEIR LAND.

The commissioner of the Indian
department at Washington has
decided to put the Indians upon
their own responsibility as much
as possible in handling their
business affairs and as a result
30 Indians of the Nez Perce
tribe have been recommended by
Agent Lipps, of Lapwai, as being
competent to handle their own
affairs. In this way they can
lease their allotments for either
grain or cash rentals, but the
leases must be in writing and
duly acknowledged, one copy for
the Indians and one for the
lessee. The terms for the lease
must not exceed three years for
agricultural or five years for
business or grazing purposes.
Competent Indians will also be
allowed to handle all other money
coming to them than through
rents.
This move of the department
is a very wise one and will do
more to place the Indians on an
independent footing than any

Tammany Hollow. The sheep
were in the stock yard at Lewis

located. Both men were bound
