NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-THE call for a
banks was not unexpected In financial
circles here. Only four of tile five calls
required by law each year a been made,
and in the natural course of events it was
anticipated that The fifth and last call
could not be much longer delayed. 1t Is
felt here that ii will exercise a beneficial
effect on the situation. inasmuch as The
banks customarily try to prepare for a
call by increasing their cash, and when
the call has been made this cash is auto
matically released. The belief also pre-
walls thar the statement resulting from
this call will show that the cash reserves
of the country banks are very large. and
that when this fact becomes public it will
tent TO rapidly restore confidence among
deposltors and thus hasten the resumption

CITY TO HAVE
BETTER FIRE
SERVICE

At meeting held yesterday by the
City Trustees it was determined 10
place the municipal water supply on
a hetter basis The city water supply
in case of fire, is entirely inadequate
for such a demand as would be mace
npon it. The City Fathers therefore
determined to secure better resources
for such an emergency. With tnat
object in view they have secured an
option on the Zimmer property west
of town. known as the Gibson ranch'
and if all goes we'll they will issue
bonds sufficient to cover the expense
Of purchasing water right and piping
10 town. This water right has tall
Of more than 80 feet and would
be sufficient for all purposes desired
The present expense OF the city
water supply would cover he interest
on $4,000 and then it Is not satl5fac
tory, This will not in any way u
terfere with the present water com
paay's business as it is only INTENDED
to be used for municipal purposes
This is a move in the right GlrectoI
and the City Trustees are to be con
pratulated on their display OF soo'
Judgment. While Carson has no
been visited by any disastrous hre
for some years past, it is by n
means immune, and would be de
cidedly handicapped in the handlin
