Real Estate, and are then offered for sale with the absolute gtiaranty, on the part
Company, of the prompt payment of both principal and interest when due, at
the ofilce of the Company in New York City.
This Company ittuen no Bonds of its own, but only negotiates with its guaranty the
Bonds it has received from persons to whom it liaa lent its money on mortgage. No
Bond, therefore, can be put in circulation by the Company unless its amount has been
secured by mortgage. To the negotiation, guaranty and sale of such Bonds the Com
pany is exclusively devoted, and it incurs no obligations except tliose arising from such
guaranty.

RULES UV MAKING LOANS.

The appraisement of property, searching of titles, execution of bonds and mortgages,
and other details of the business of loaning, are perfcrmed with the utmost possible care,
by the most competent of agents and attorneys, and the following invariable rules have
been adopted by the Company:
1st. Loan only on First Mortgage.
2d. Loan no more on any property than 50 per cent of a low cash valuation.
3d. Loan no more than the value of the land, independent of any improvement it
may have on it.
4th. No loans on farms shall be taken at more than one-third of the value of the
land without the improvements.
5th. Make no loans to Churches, to Religious or Charitable Societies or Corporate
Bodies.
6th. Factories, Mills or Machinery will not be reckoned as part of any security.
7th. Tlie rental value of any security must be at least Ten per cent of the amount

The obligations are in the form of Bonds with Interest Coupons attached. TB
are divided into denominations of One Tliousand and Five Hundred Dollars each, b^
seven per cent interest payable semi-annually, at the New York office of the Companj
or at Messrs. Baring Brothers in London, run for a period of five years, and can
registered if desired.
The borrower empowers a Trustee, in whose name tlie mortgage is made, to sell the
property in case of nonpayment of interest or principal. The Trustee cannot apply
the proceeds of the sale to any other purpose than that of taking vip the Bonds secured
by the property, and the money will not even pass into the Company's hands unless it
is itselt in possession of these identical Bonds.

SECURITY OF THE INVESTMENT.
The purchaser

of these Real Estate Bonds has a three-fold security for his invest
ment, each independent of the other, viz.
1st. The personal obligation of the borrower, who must be a party of good character

3d. The guaranty and endorsement of this Company, having a paid-up capital
$1,000,000 and a surplus of $335,000, which is to be steadily increased to $1,000,000.
He can enforce his claim against the real estate by which this Bond is secure
He can hold the Company ou its guaranty. No act of the Company can preventt OP r
impair his remedy on the mortgage, and no act of the mortgagor can prejudice

The Company commenced operations in 1873, and up to the first of Septemli

bonds, and the high character of the investment, they have recently advanced the ])rice

The sinking fund provisioDS are sufficient to meet

city auditor, gave his estimates for the revenue lequired for the coming financial year I875-7b, commencing May 1, 1875, and terminating April 30, 1876.
This estimate is based on an assumption of strictest
economy in all departments. He says: It is a source
of congratulation that in meeting the actual wants
of the municipality and avoiding the borrowing of
money for other than for the additional supply of
water, extension of the water works, and extensive
and costly street improvements, the tax per each

thousand dollars

be largely reduced from last
year. The following is a comparison of the appropriations asked for and income to be received, compared with the estimates for l'*?4-5will

By an act of 1874 the towns of West
Farms, Morrisania and Kinysbridge, epibradng
about 12,000 acres, were annexcil to New York. The
debt of these towns was about $l,500.f)00.
From the termination of the Tweed regime in
1871 to January, 1875, the gross increase in debt was
#.33,25-2.049, and Comptroller Green claims that the
old claims existing when he took ofBce, with the
bonds Issued to pay deflcicncy in State sinking fund,
and for up-towu improvements, aggregate more than
this whole increase. He condemns very strongly
the law under which the liepartment of Public
Works makes such heavy expenditures. All unadjusted claims against the city .lau. 1S75. were nominally 16,971,119, a large part of wliich the Ooinntroller claims to be fraudulent imd has determinedly

and chiefly on the charge of his placing many valid

as
those

the

and
which are fraudulent or extravagant. Mayor Wickham objects to the present method of authorizing
bonds that the laws are mandatory on the Board
of Estimate and leave them no discretion. He says:
"The Common Council has ni control over the proceedings rcmiired to be taken under several of them.
But some omcer or department of the City Government is by each of them authorized to prosecute a
public work of some sort, and to incur obligationt
for It In the name of the city, and for the payment of
snch obligations city bonds must bo issaed." Extract
from Mayor's Message of January, 187«, Is given
in V, 22, p. 63. (V. 20, p. 14, 39; V. »1, p. 8».)
