10 the Water Works company by as
Stunning the $1,000 obligation imposed
upon sprinkler users.
President Bavis, agreeing with the
other city officials that an eXtortion-
ate service charge had been imposed
upon the sprinkler users, first sug-
gested an appeal of the commissions
ruling. This plan did not meet with
general approval, 1t being pointed out
that court decisions generally upheld
the principle of a readinsss-to-serve
charge and that the only chance the
city might have of reversing the COM
missions order would be to establish
the fact that the charge imposed was
unreasonable"
Fair Charge Satisfactory.
City Attorney Bond. in fact express
e., the opinion that the sprinkler
users should pay fair service charge,
and Mr.. Carr agreed with him in this.
Bavis finally suggested the posi-
bility of rate REIMBURSEMENT whereby
the bulk of the $1,000 charge imposed
upon the sprinkler users would be I'M
posed upon manufacturing concerns
which do not have automatic sprink-
Ter protection
All those who attended the meeting
agreed that under no consideration
should the small consumers be forced
to assume the charge which has been
forced upon the sprinkler users.
II is understood the water works
company will be satisfied if some ar
rangement can be made with the CON-
mission for the relief Of the sprinkler
users.
Company Stands Ready.
The company, It Is said, is also In
sympathy with the protest Of the
sprinkler users on that section OF the
order requiring all such systems to be
metered. The company would like to
avoid the expenditure Of approximate
" $4,000 for the installation of such
meters.

ELIMINATES CHARGES
ON CHECK COLLECTION
Reserve Board Adopts Clearance Sys-
TEN Which Will Be Nation
wide in Scope,

The Federal Reserve Board yesterday
announced the compilation of its plan
for nationwide check clearance system,
which will permit OF the collection OF
checks drawn on national banks without
cost to the payee. The new system will
become operative June IT,
The inauguration OF the new clearance
plan will be regarded as q highly inn
portant forward movement In the de-
yelopment OF the new currency system.
The establishment Of such a clearance
system was contemplated by the authors
Of the Glass-owen currency law, but II
had been postponed until the present
time. The Federal Reserve Board has
been at work upon the plan now formu-
lated for the past four or five months,
Administration officials believe that the
new clearance system will constitute one
of the most popular features Of the new
currency system. Hitherto banks have
had the right TO charge graduated sums
for the collection Of cherks and the payes
always was forced to stand the charge.

With the important conference between
Gems. Scotia nd Obregon, on which may de
depend whether we have war or peace
with Mexico, and with the time steadily
drawing nearer when the German reply to
President Wilson's latest note may be
expected. it is only natural that caution
should be exercised in making commit

a result, activities In the stock market

no disposition towards a rcCtion. and in
some Of these issues new high prices for
this or any past movement were reg

four or five issues made up 30 Der cent

is an indication that today's market was
a narrow and nonrepresentative one.

sperIaItics Are Active.

The following summary OF the action
Of the New York list was received by
W. b. Hbbs & Company from their
New York correspondent after yester-
days close:
The early trading was devoted to
evening up operations. but in the later
dealings specialtes became conspicuous
ly active. The resumption of bullsh nc
tivity was not accompanied by any defi-
mite occurrence. though 1t was felt in
good quarters that the submarine issues
will shortly be dismissed as a market
Influence With Mexico it is different;
the conditions in the southern republic,
according to adviCes, are in a chaotic
state. and more or less concern will prob
ably be exhibited until the results of the
consultation are known.
"All in all. 1t looks as II about one
million workers will be either directly
or indirectly involved in labor disputes
on May !. The difficulties with the miners
seem likely to be adjusted without much
further parley, but the status Of things in
the neighbOrhood of Pittsburgh is rather
alarming. The demands OF railroad en-
ployes will probably be compromised.
This feature of things. however, is likely
to assert itself very strongly as a market
factor when least expected"
