THEY ARE ALARMED AT
TALK OF WITHDRAWAL

HAVANA. Jan. 3.-The possibility
of the withdrawal of the United States
troops from Cuba at no far distant day
has so greatly alarmed the bankers
throughout the Island that they have
just issued an announcement in the
event of the withdrawal of United
States protection that they will refuse
ITO make loans on crops. American
troops are necessary to insure the sta
ibiiity of such security, they declare,
and they will not take the risk. F.
nanciers generally take a gloomy view
of the outlook. The evacuation Of the
Island by Americans. the majority OF
them believe. will result In the ruin Of
many hundreds OF persons and a
wholesale disaster.

CITY BUYS THREE LOTS
Site for Pumping Plant Sc.
cured by Council.

The city council Tuesday nighl
held a special session and decided to
purchase the three lots cornering on
the alley at the rear of w. B. Banks s
residence on Mckinley street to be
used as site for the proposed
waterworks standpipe and the pump
ing plant. The property is owned
by Mr.. Hayes of Mountainhome
and the price to be paid is $100
) Mr.. Anderson, a member of the
Bannock Engineering Company,
with headquarters at Pocatello, was
present by request at the council
meeting to talk over the proposed
waterworks proposition with the
council. His company has just COM
pleted a system at Haley at cost
of $27, 900, which is said to be one
of the best in the state. He rough
ly estimates the cost of small plant
in this city. one that will give ample
fire protection to the business section
and furnish water for domestic pur-
poses to portion of the residence
district, at $4,000. This would
form nucleus for a more extended
system so soon as the growth of the
city shall warrant it, Mr. Anderson
made a personal inspection of the
entire city and will draw several
plsns for the consideration of the
cE lcii.
The council passed two ordinances.
One of them fixes the tax levy of
this city for the ensuing year at 10
mills. The other creates sprink-
ling district, the cost to be assessed
against the abutting property of
such streets proposed to be sprin-
kled. The district created comprises
Main street to Mckinley avenue,
First street from Boise to Hayes,
Park street from Hayes to Wardwell, /
Boise avenue from Main to First.
Commercial, Washington, Hayes and
Wardwell avenues from First street
to the railroad. The estimated cost
for the season is $1,000. Monday. "
July %, is fixed as the day within
which protests may be made against {
such an improvement.
