The fire department is having the
cisterns about the city placed in con-
dition for use in case they should be
needed. Probably but few know that
there were at one time twenty-five Of
these clsterns at different locations
about the city and residents near
them who controlled water supplies
were paid so much each time the els
terms were filed. Hand engines pump
ed water from these cisterns, but they
can be equally serviceable for the fire
department now and one or more
steamers can draught from them after
they have been connected with the wa
ter mains. The cistern in front OF the
Second Congregational church has
been made serviceable, and an old rec
ord lately found by Chief Stanton states
that this particular cistern was filed
by water from the roof of the church.
Another cistern in Broad street near
Broadway, has recently been located,
and uncovered, and as soon as connec-
ton is made with it by the water de-
partment il will be in a position to
draught from if needed, there being a

board of arbitration and Cancellation,
came here at 10 o'clock and remained
until 4.40 in the afternoon. He had a
conference with the masons' tenders re-
garding their claims, and also saw a
number of master builders during the
day in regard to the existing trouble
over claim for raise of pay by the
masons' tenders. 1t is said that there
is no strike. as no strike vote has been
passed by the union; but a few months
ago the union published a statement
to the effect that they would ask for
raise in pay the first of May, and that
was the only notice to the builders.
They are now waiting to hear from
the builders, they say, and are not
striking. They proceeded in the matter
without a6visement, It is learned, and
Mr. Fox stated that he believed the
whole trouble was a misunderstanding
on both sides, and considered that
there would be a quick settlement of
the entire matter. He is to return here
