The city thereupon offered
the bonds to the State Auditor and demanded that he
issue to it a warrant on the State Treasurer for the
sum of $150,000. The Auditor refused to issue the

his refusal to issue
the warrant on several
grounds, but the only objection the Court deemed it
necessary to consider was that the attempted investment was in violation of Article 16, Section 5, of the
State Constitution.

vides that "none of the permanent school fund of this

bonds." It was the contention of the Auditor that
the water-works bonds of the city of Port Townsend
are not "municipal" bonds.
It will be seen that the specific question presented
for consideration of the Court
was whether the Port

veniences when constructed, and even the conveniences
themselves, to raise the funds for their construction.
But though the Legislature may lawfully authorize the
issuance of such pledges, prescribe their form, and
give them such name as it chooses, that fact does
not make them municipal obligations. The very
term "municipal bond" imports a municipal debt
or obligation.
The common mind understands from
the fact that a municipal bond is issued that a municipal debt has been created and that the faith and credit
of the municipality issuing the bond is pledged to its
payment. The opinion proceeds as follows:
"The term,
it seems to us, can admit of no other
Certainly it cannot have been so loosely
used as to include every form of obligation that the
ingenuity of the Legislature might devise and call
municipal bonds. Yet if bonds payable out of a
special fund are such simply because a municipality
is instrumental in creating that fund, this proposition
must stand admitted; for there is no limitation upon
the power of the Legislature to authorize the creation
of special funds by municipalities nor is there any
limitation as to the source from which the money to
create the special fund may be drawn.
Indeed, if
bonds of the character here described are municipal
bonds there can be no form of obligation, either public
or private, in which the Legislature might not, by the
legerdemain of making it a municipal special fund,
lawfully authorize the investment of the permanent
school fund.
Measured by these tests the bonds in
question are clearly not municipal bonds.
Not only does the statute law which authorizes their
issuance and the ordinance which carries that authorization into execution expressly declare that the bonds
are not obligations of the City of Port Townsend, but
it is shown that if, by any form of reasoning, they could
be held so to be, they would be void for want of power
on the part of the city to incur such an obligation."

for which the credit and faith of the municipality are

financial history of our municipalities which is more
palpable than the tendency to call into being the very
class of obligations which by the interpretation of the
Supreme Court of Washington cannot be deemed to be
"municipal" bonds at all.
Our municipalities are constantly assuming new
functions, and the effort is to find the financial means
for sustaining these new activities.

special obligations outside of the debt limit would
furnish a way out of the dilemma.

shall therefore confine ourselves on this occasion to the alterations made in the provisions respecting
the municipal investments.
The changes here have
been quite as important as
in the other particular.
Whereas previously the municipal securities (outside
of New York State we mean) deemed suitable were
designated in the law itself, now the name of no city
is given, but certain general requirements are specified,
and the bonds of all cities which fulfill such requirements are brought within the reach of the banks.
Before going into an analysis of these requirements, it
be desirable to see to what extent the banks at
present have their funds invested in municipal securi-
will
years the savings institutions of this State have added
over 42 million dollars to their holdings of city bonds
of this State, the total of the same having risen from
$128,855,349 January 1 1898 to $170,911,421 January 1 1905, and have added over 60 million dollars to
their holdings of city bonds of other States, the total
of which between the same two dates has advanced
from $52,300,428 to $112,303,399. In other words,
the banks now hold $283,214,820 of city bonds of all
kinds, as against only $181,155,775 on January 1 1898.
Evidently, therefore, the municipal field has not been
neglected.
Moreover, the proportion of these city
bond holdings to the total has been fully maintained,
and even slightly increased. The percentage of city
bonds of this State is not so large as at the earlier date,
but the percentage of city bonds of other States is
larger, and the two together now form 23.39% of the
whole against 23.23% in 1898.
Examining the other items in the table, we get an
idea of the urgent situation our savings bank managers
and our law-makers alike have had t^ deal with in
undertaking to provide an adequate body of invest-

Then it will be seen that the holdings of United States
bonds (including those of the District of Columbia)
have been reduced from $106,298,250 on January 1
1898 to only $18,551 ,980 on January 1 1905. The reason for the contraction here is also perfectly plain.
Owing to the refunding operations of the Government
and the fact that there has been such an urgent demand for United States bonds as security for circulation and for public deposits, this class of bonds has
advanced to prices where it became unprofitable

for $196,982,385 of the amount, and all the rest of
the sum went into the old forms of investment. For
instance, over 211 million dollars was added to the
real estate mortgages, the aggregate holdings of which
have increased in the seven years from $358,943,901 to
$570,200,542. Here, too, it will be observed, the
ratio to the whole has been slightly increased although
the change has been on the whole remarkably small,
the real estate mortgages forming now 46.92% of the
security investments, as against 46.01% in 1898.
Altogether, therefore, the trustees of our savings
institutions in the extra latitude allowed them have
apparently exercised a wise discretion and appear not
to have discriminated against or in favor of any
particular line or class of investments.
Railroad
bonds have in large measure supplied the void
created by the disappearance of State bonds and the
passing out of reach of United States bonds otherwise there has been relatively little alteration.
We have stated above that the changes in the law
made the present year provide general standards for
the municipal list (the previous rule having been to

Increase of debt.

Observe now what the requirements here are we
mean aside from the old requirements that the aggregate debt less water debt and sinking funds was not
to exceed 7 per cent of the city's valuation for purposes
of taxation.
In the first place, the State in which the
city is located must have been admitted to Statehood
prior to January 1 1896.
In the second place, the
State must not since January 1 1861 have repudiated
payment of any part of the principal

the city must not have less than 45,000 inhabitants.
Furthermore, it must have been incorporated as a city
at least twenty-five years prior to the making of the
investment. Finally, it must never have defaulted
for more than ninety days "in the payment of any part
either of principal or interest of any bond, note or
other evidence of indebtedness or effected any compromise of any kind with the holders thereof."
It is conceivable that this last provision might have

"REFUNDING CERTIFICATES" (Column 3).— Aot of February 26, 1879, authorized the Secretary of the Treasury to issue in exohange
for lawful money of the United States certificates of deposit of the denomination of ten dollars, bearing interest at the rate of 4 per cent, and
convertible at any time, with accrued interest, into the 4 per cent bonds described in the Refunding aot; the money so received to be applied
only to the payment of the bonds bearing interest at a rate not less than 5 per cent. On March 12, 1879, the issue of these certificates and their
exohange into 4 per cent bonds were authorized; the certificates were to draw 4 per cent interest from April 1, 1879, and were converti >.e :n
sums of $50 or its multiples. The amount Issued at the close of the fiscal year (June 30, 1879), was $39,308,110, but they had been converted
so rapidly that there were outstanding at that date only $12,848,210. On October 31, 1879, the entire authorization had been reached, tlie
maximum amount of the issue being $40,012,750. Of these there were still outstanding on Nov. 1, 1905, a total of $26,780.
" LOAN OF 1925."— (Column 5.) Sales of bonds included under this designation were effected (1) in February, 1895, to the amount of
$62,315,400 and (2) in February, 1896, to the amount of $100,000,000. In a message to Congress under date of February 8, 1 895 (published n
the Chronicle February 9, 1895, page 244), President Cleveland stated in substance that in pursuanoe of Section 3700 of the Revised Statues
the details of an arrangement have this day been conoluded whereby bonds authorized under the act of July 14, 1875, payable in coin at the
pleasure of the United States after the first day of Feb., 1925, with interest at the rate of 4 per cent per annum, to the* amount of $62,315,400.
are to be issued for the purchase of gold coin amounting to a sum slightly In excess of $65,000,000, to be delivered to the Treasury of the United
States, which sum added to the gold now held in our reserve will so restore such reserve as to make it amount to something more than $100,000,000. Such a premium is to be allowed to the Government upon the bonds as to fix the rate of interest upon the amount of gold realized at
3%p. o. per annum. At least one-half of thegoldto be obtained is to be supplied fiom abroad. Seotion 3700 of the Revified Statutes is as follows
"Sec 3700. The Secretary of the Treasury may purchase coin with auy of the bonds or notes of the United States authorized by law at suoh
rates and upon suoh terms as he may deem most advantageous to the public interest."
For a construction of the "Refunding Act of 1870" and of the " Resumption Act of 1875," see Chronicle, February 18, 1893, page 265.
The issue in February, 1896, was an ordinary offering, open to all bidders, of $100,000,000 of the same bonds as the foregoing— same in
date, same in time of maturity, same in rate of interest and time of interest payments. Consequently both issues are oalled the "Loan of 1925,'
of which there are outstanding $118,489,900.
"LOAN OF 1 904."— (Column 4.) The act of January 14, 1875, authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to use any surplus revenues from
time to time in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, and to issue, sell, dispose of, at not less than par in coin, either of the descriptions
of bonds of the United States described in the act of July 14, 1870, for the purpose of redeeming on and after January 1, 1879, in coin, at
the otfloe of the Assistant Treasurer of the United States at New York, the outstanding legal-tender notes when presented In sums of not less
an fifty dollars. Under this authorization, and for the purpose mentioned, there were issued in Feb., 1894, payable in 10 years, $50,000,000 of
5 per cents and in Nov., 1894, there were issued $50,000,000 more for similar bonds for same purpose. The bonds matured Feb. 2, 1904, and
the amount outstanding Nov. 1 ($181,750) is included on that date in "debt on which interest has ceased."

Hampshire's debt history is very brief.
This State has always been extremely conservative, and no bonds were
issued until after the breaking out of the Civil War. In 1866 New
Hampshire reported her funded indebtedness at $4,169,818, contracted exclusively for war purposes. June 1, 1809, the total out
standing was $3,213,962 22, against which the Treasurer report <->•
an asset of $77,082 89. The State debt at the present time is as follows

of New Hampshire upon the debt-making power of the people through

Article 5 of Part Second of that Instrument.
Provided, That the General Court shall not authorize any town to
loan or give its money or credit directly or Indirectly for the benefit oi
any corporation having for its object a dividend of profits or in any
way aid the same by taking its stocks or bonds.
The above is an amendment to the Constitution, which was ratified In
1877. The amendment would appear to be intended as a complete
estoppel to municipal loaning of money or credit, to railroad and indus

There was no direct tax for State purposes levied in either 1903 or
1904. A tax of * I -SO per $1,000, however, consistingof aStatesohool
tax of 80 cents and State highway tax of 50 cents was collected and redistributed to towns on a basis of the number of schools and road
mileage, the State, for the sake of equalizing its distribution, acting
as agent in the matter. Prior to 1902 this tax was $1 per $1,000.
DEBT LIMITATIONS.—There appears to be nothing in the Constitution or in the Statutes of Vermont providing a general limit to the
debt-making power of municipalities. Whatever in each case the Legislature authorizes, the city, town, county or other civil division can
issue. Of course the purpose of the improvement must be of a public
character. Railroad subscriptions by towns are authorized by Section
3102, chapter 141 of the Revised Statutes of 1894, the section being as
19()5.
190J:
-
follows
Section 3102, A town may aid in the construction of a railroad organized under the general law by issuing bonds to aid such railroad,
by taking capital stock therein, or in such other manner as it directs,
but the liability so assumed shall not exceed eight times the grand list
of the town at the time. Such aid shall be given as provided in this
chapter.
It will be noticed that this section contains a limit to the power
granted of making subscriptions in aid of railroads— to wit That the
subscriptions shall not exceed eight times " the grand list." To evolve
the " grand list " in Vermont, the authorities first prepare a schedule of
all the property, real and personal, of each individual, with valuations
entered at their real value in money, deducting debts owing after this
is done " the grand list " is made up by taking one per cent of that
amount, according to Section 360, Chapter 26, of the Revised Statutes
of 1894, which is as follows: "All r*-al and personal estate shall,
"except as otherwise provided, be set iu the list at one per cent of its
" value in money on the first day of April of the year oL its appraisal. '»
Following Section 3102, above cited, which authorizes subscriptions
In aid of railroads, are other sections describing the method in which
these subscriptions must be made, by calling a town meeting, voting,
&c, <fec. Then follows Section 3108, authorizing the issue of bonds.
Section 3108. Such town may issue bonds, with coupons payable
semi-annually, to aid such road.
The, only other general authority granted for the issue of bonds by
municipal corporations in Vermont is that given for refunding outstanding bonds and notes, and for road making apparatus. The Sec
tions which grant these powers are Sections 3111 to 3120, inclusive,
Chapter 141 of the Revised Statutes of 1894. 8ection3111isasfollows:
Section 3111. A town which has outstanding and unpaid orders,
notes, bonds or coupons lawf uliy issued, may issue other negotiable
notes or bonds to pay or retire the same.
Sections 31 i.2 to 3115, Inclusive, give the method of issuing suoh
bonds.
By Section 3116 municipal corporations other than towns have the
flame refunding powers granted them whioh are conferred upon towns
by the two sections last above cited.
:
;
17
Section 3118. A town, city or incorporated village may issue bonds
an amount not exceeding ihree times Its grand lisi.for the purpose of
purchasing road-making apparatus and for building permanent big hwayn within the the limits of suoh town, city or village.
8eotlons3119and3120 provide for the method of issuing snob, bonds.
The only other section which we need quote is Section 3083 of
Chapter 139, which names the objects for which towns may vote money.
If money is appropriated for any other object, the Charter or a special
to
must be looked to for the authority.
Section 3083.—Towns may vote such sums of money as they deem
necessary for the support of the poor, for laying out and repairing
highways, for the prosecution and defense of the common rights and
interests of the inhabitants, and for other necessary incidental town
expenses.

assets of a savings bank, savings institution or trust company shall be
invested in personal securities.
Section 4100 only covers a single point; that is to say it restricts to
five per cent of the deposits the amount which a savings bank may
invest in the lot and building for the transaction of its business, and
adds that a revenue may be derived from portions of the building not
required for the bank's use. The next section (Section 4101) covers
the most important of the provisions relating to investments that are
contained in the law. Wegive the section in fullbelow. The separation
into paragraphs and the figures in parenthesis which number and begin
the paragraphs are our own.
Section 4101—With the foregoing exceptions, the moneys deposited
in Savings Banks, Savings Institutions and Trust Companies, and
the income therefrom, shall be invested only as follows
(1.) In the public funds of the United States, or public funds for the
payment of principal and interest of which the faith of the United States
pledged;
In the bonds or notes of the counties, cities, towns, villages and
school districts of the New England States, New York, Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois and Iowa;
(3.) In the stock of any national bank in the New England States,
New York and the cities of Detroit, Chicago, St. Paul and Minneapolis
in the stock of any banking association or trust company incorporated
under the authority of and located in this State
(4.) In the municipal bonds, not issued in aid of railroads, of
counties, cities and towns of five thousand or more inhabitants in the
States of New Jersey, Wisconsin Minnesota and Missouri, and in
counties, cities and towns of ten thousand or more inhabitants in the
States of Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Oregon
and Washington, but no investment shall be made in any of the
counties, cities or towns in the States above named, except in cities
of fifty thousand or more inhabitants, where the municipal indebtedness of such county, city or town exceeds five per cent of its assessed
valuation, and when not issued in aid of railroads
(5.) In the school bonds and independent school district bonds of New
Jersey, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Missouri; and in the school bonds and
independent school district bonds of school districts of two thousand
or more inhabitants in the States of Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota,
South Dakota, Oregon and Washington, where the amount of such
bonds issued does not exceed five per cent of the assessed valuation of
the respective cities, towns and school districts.
(6.) In the publio funds of any of the States named in this section;
in notes with a pledge of any of the aforesaid securities, including deposit books or deposit receipts, issued by a savings bank, savings
institution or trust company or banking association located in this
State, as collateral, such notes not to exceed the par or market value
of such security
(7.) But no savings bank, savings institution or trust company shall
hold, by way of investment or as security for loans, more than ten
per cent of the capital stock of any one bank, nor invest moid than ten
per cent of its deposits, nor more than thirty-five thousand dollars in
the capital stock of any one bank; and no such investments shall be
made in the capital stock of any such banks, owned or loaned upon, to
exceed in the aggregate one-fourth of the deposits of any savings bank,
savings institution or trust company.
The amount of loan which can be made to one person or corporation
&c, is restricted by the next section, and we give it in full. It is as
follows:
Section 4102—No savings bank, savings institution or trust company
shall loan to any one person, firm or corporation, or the individual
members thereof, more than five per cent of its deposits, nor more
than thirty thousand dollars; nor shall such loans on personal security
exceed ten thousand dollars, until its deposits amount to one million
dollar^, after which the sums so loaned may be increased one per cent
of the deposits in excess of the one million dollars; but this seotion
shall not apply to United States bonds or municipal bonds, or notes
with such bonds as collateral.
We also give Section 4106 in full. It confers authority upon savings banks to make deposits on call in banks and trust companies in
is
(2.)
certain States and cities,
and
is
as follows.
Section 4106.—The words "trust company" in this chapter shall be
construed to include savings banks and trust companies. A savings
bank, savings institution or trust company may deposit on call in
banks, banking associations or trust companies in this State, or in the
cities of New York, Boston, Chicago, Albany, Philadelphia, or Concord,
New Hampshire, or in any other legal designated depository under
the laws of the United States, or in national banks -a the cities of
St. Paul, Minn3apolis and Kansas City, with or without interest, as
may be agreed upon, sums not exceeding in the aggregate twenty per
cent of the assets of such savings bank, savings institution or trust

PUBLIC SALES OF BONDS— A bill passed the Legislature in 1904
directing the Treasurer to advertise all future sales of State bonds
instead of disposing of the same at private sale, as had been the
practice for several precious vears. (V. 78, p. 1565).
PAR VALUE OF BONDS.— The coupon bonds are in $1,000
pieces and the registered $1,000 and upward.
INTEREST on all sterling bonds is payable by Baring Brothers
London; on all others at State Treasury, at Boston.

Nominal or Contingent Debt, for which the Commonwealth has loaned
her credit to suudry oities and owns for various purposes, the payment of which is guaranteed by sinking funds (sufficient to pay the
debt at maturity) provided by a direct annual tax on the oities and
towns for which the debt has been incurred. On Nov. 1, 1905, these

DEBT LIMITATIONS.— There seems to be no provision in the Constitution of Massachusetts limiting the power of the Legislature to
create State indebtedness, or limiting its power to authorize municipal
indebtedness. Statutes general and special have, however, been passed
on this subject with respeot to Cities and Towns. All of the general provisions are found incorporated in Chapter 27 of the Revised
Statutes, edition of Jan. 1, 1902. The important sections of this
chapter are cited below:
Section X— Cities and towns shall not incur debts, except in the
manner of voting and within the limitations as to amount and time
of paymeut prescribed iu tnis chapter.
Section 2— The indebtedness of a city or town under the provisions
of this chapter not inconsistent herewith shall be its net indebtedness*
as delined in clause twelve of section live of chapter eight; but debts
created in aid of railroad corporations, except as herein otherwise
provided, and water scrip, issued by a town under special statutes for
the indebtedness of a tire district, and all other debts excepted by
general or special statutes shall be excluded.
"For mtaning of "net. indetttednest" si* bottom of page 20.
Section 3 A city shall not become Indebted in an amouat exceeding two and one-half per cent on the average of the assessors' valuations of the taxable pi operty therein for the three preceding years,

abatements allowed thereon previous to the last day of December in
the year preceding said assessment.
Section 4— a town shall not become indebted in an amount exceeding three per cent on the last preceding valuation, for the assessment
of taxes, of the taxable property therein.
Section 5— A city ortown which establishes, purchase", reconstructs,
extends or enlarges a gas or electric lighting plant within its limits
may incur debt outside the debt limit prescribed in this chapter in
payment therefor to an amount not exceeding, in a town, live per
cent and, in a city, not exceeding two and one-half per cent of the
last preceding State valuation.
Section 6— Cities and towns may by a majority vote incur debts for
temporary loans in anticipation of the taxes of the municipal year in
which such debts are incurred and expressly made payable therefrom
by such vote. Such loans shall bo piyable within one year after the
date of their incurrence, and shall not be reckoned iu determining the
authorized limit of indebte luess. [Notes ina> be non-intenst bearing

Section 7— Cities and towns may by a majority vote incur debts for
temporary loans for the payment of any land damages or any proportion of the general expense of altering a crossing which they are required primarily to pay under the provisions of sections one hundred
aud forty-nine to one hundred and sixty, inclusive, of ehapter one
hundred and eleven. Such loans shall not be reckoned in determining
the authorized limit of indebtedness, and when any money ^o paid is
repaid, it shall be immediately applied to the discharge of the loan.
The sections referred to above in chapter 111 provide for the abolition
of tirade Vrosbings.

subject to the approval or disapproval of the mayor.

other certificates of indebtedness in accordance with the provisions of
this chapter, the officers authorized to negotiate the same may, in the

In the year before the maturity of the debt, raise by taxation, any balance necessary for its extinguishment.
SECTiON 13—A city or town, instead of establishing a sinking fund,
may vote to provide for the payment of any debt by such annual
proportionate payments as will extinguish the same at maturity, and
thereupon such annual proportion shall, without further vote, be
assessed und«-r the provisions of section thirty-seven of chapter
twelve until such debt is extinguished.
Sections 14 to 19. inclusive, and sections 22, 24 and 25 relate to
the election and duties of the commissioners of the sinking fund and
various othermatters we cannot enter upon here.
Section 21— A city which at a meeting of its voters held for that
purpose has accepted, by a vote of two-thirds of the legal voters present and voting thereon, any Act to supply said city with water may,
by a yea and nay vote of the majority of the members of each branch
of the city council, contract debts and issue bonds for the purposes and
to the extent authorized by such Act, in the manner provided in, and
subject to the provisions of, the preceding sections.

city or town valuation for the assessment of taxes.
In addition to these General Provisions there are various Special
Laws which contain exceptions to the general law as to debt limita-
m
which apply to Cambridge, Lynn, Newburyport, Waltham,
Worcester, &c, <fec. Af urther exception in favor of Metropolitan Park

DEBT AND TAX LIMITATIONS.—Taxes in Boston are limited by
Chapter 399 of the Acts of 1900 as follows (approved June 26, 1900):
Section 1. The taxes assessed on property, exclusive of the State
tax, county tax and sums required by law to be raised on account
of the city debt, shall not exceed in any year in the city of Roston ten and one-half dollars, and in any other city twelve dollars,
on every one thousand dollars of the average of the assessors' valuations of the taxable property therein for the preceding three years, the
valuation for each year being first reduced by the amount of all abatements allowed thereon previous to the thirty-first day of December in
the year preceding said assessment, and any order or appropriation
requiring a larger assessment than is herein limited shall be void.
Section 2. Chapter one hundred and seventy-eight of the Acts of the
year eighteen hundred and eighty-five and Chapter two hundred and
eighty one of the Acts of the year eighteen hundred and eighty seven
are hereby repealed.
The new law, in repealing Chapter 178 of the Laws of 1885, repealed
a special Act limiting the indebtedness of the City of Boston to 2 per
cent of the assessed valuation, eto etc. Boston consequently is now
subject to Section 2. Chapter 312, Laws of 1685 (Sec. 3, Chap. 27 of the
1902 edition Revised Statutes), which places the debt limitation at 2^
percentof the average assessors' valuations of thetaxableproperty for
thepreceding three years. Reference to this section of the Revised
Statutes will be found in our remarks under the State of Massachusetts.

STATE AND MUNICIPAL INDEBTEDNESS LIMITATIONS.-
Under Section 13, Article IV., of the State Constitution, the General
Assembly has no power to incur State debt to an amount exceeding
$50,000 without the consent of the people, except in time of war or
Of insurrection or invasion. In no case is the Assembly to pledge the
faith of the State for the payment of obligations of others without the
approval of the people. In reference to city debts, there is nothing in
the Constitution of Rhode Island limiting the amount of such obligations.
The following, however, are two sections taken from Title 7, Chapter
36 (page 157) of the Revised Statutes of the State of 1896. Since 1878
these provisions have been in force, and consequently 3 per cent of the
taxable property has been the limit of the power of each town (which
Includes city) to create debt.
Section 20. " The outstanding notes, bonds and contracts of towns
shall be paid and be fulfilled according to the tenor thereof, and all
public -worKs now authorized to be prosecuted shall be prosecuted, and
all indebtedness now authorized to be incurred on account thereof may
be incurred according to the tenor of the authority therefor.
Section 21. No town shall, without special statutory authority
therefor, incur any debt in excess of three per centum of the taxable
property of such town, including the indebtedness of such town on
the tenth day of April, one thousand eight hundred seventy-eight, but
the giving of a new note or bond, for a pre-existing debt, or for
money borrowed and applied to the payment of such pre-existing debt,
is excepted from the provisions of this section, and the amount
of any
sinking fund shall be deducted in computing such indebtedness."
SAVINGS BANK INVESTMENTS AND RESTRICTIONS.-In
the Revised Statutes of Rhode Island (which were revised in 1896)
Sections 54, 55, 56, etc., of Chapter 178, Title 19 (on page 548), will be
found the provisions of law with reference to Savings Bank Investments. Section 54, which recites in detail the stocks, bonds, etc, these
institutions are allowed to put their money in is as follows
Section 54. Institutions for savings shall invest their receipts—
n VUDllc stocks or bonds of any State or of the United States,
)l\ J
T
any banlr stock or in notes or bonds of any town or city,
)i\ X
notes 0:f ar, y school distriot or Are district in any New Enga cV

States.
or of any town or city or of any school district or Are district in any
New England State, or by the stock or bonds of any corporation whicb
may be deemed to be safe, or by mortgage on real estate.
Concerning Sections 55 and 56, the first appears to give savings
institutions quite extensive powers as to making and keeping deposits

When so kept, however, they are to be kept
"payable on demand whether drawing interest or not." The two
sections are subjoined.
Section 5.5.—No suck institution shall have an amount exceeding
one-half of its receipts invested in notes, bonds or drafts of individuals
or corporations, unless secured by some public notes, bonds or stocks
as
aforesaid, or by mortgage on real estate: but the preceding section shall
not be so construed as to forbid any such institution from placing and
holding on deposit in any bank such reasonable amount of their receipts as is customary and they may deem proper, payable on demand,
whether drawing interest or not.
Section 56.—No money shall be loaned by any institution for savings to any trustee, director or other officer of such institution.

Under Chapter 106, as amended by Chapter 165, Laws of 1901, the
State collects the tax on every bank, national b inking association,
trust, insurance, investment and bridge oompanies whose stook is not
exempt frmn taxation, and remits the amount so collected to the various city and town treasurers. As the value of suoh stocks was previously include ! in the grand list of eaoh town, the reduction in values in 1901 followed from that cause.

NEW
CONSTITUTION DEFEATED.-After a
PROPOSED
Constitutional Convention ocoupying over four months, the document
drafted by that body was defeated at a popular election on June 16, '02.
DEBT LIMITATION.—The Constitution of Connecticut contains but
a single provision restricting the debt-making power. The provision is
Article 25, adopted as an amendment in 1877, and is as follows
No County, City, Town, Borough or other Municipality, shall ever
subscribe to the capital stock of any railroad corporation, orbecomethe
purchaser of the bonds, or make donation to, or loan its credit in aid of,
any such corporation but nothing herein contained shall affect the
validity of any bonds or debts incurred under existing laws, nor be construed to prohibit the General Assembly from authorizing any Town
or City to protect by additional appropiations of money or credit any
railroad debt contracted prior to the adoption of this amendment.

enabling acts and in city charters.
to towns, we notice that there is a general law granting them unlimited power to issue bonds. According to section 1931, chapter 121 of
the Revised Statutes of 1902, " when any town shall have made appro" priations or incurred debts, or shall hereafter make appropriations or
" incur debts exceeding ton thousand dollars, it may issue bonds, either
" registered cr with coupons attached, or other obligations, payable at
" suoh times and at such annual rate of interest not exceeding 6 per
" cent, payable annually or semi-annually, as it shall determine," &o.
Cities have had no such general authority oonferred upon them.
in
Exemption from Taxation has been accorded by general statute to
certain bonds issued by cities and towns to aid in the construction of
railroads; and this exemption has been extended to new bonds issued
for the purpose of redeeming or providing a fund to redeem the railroad
aid bonds above referred to. This exemption is found in Section 2315.
Chapter 144 of the Revised Statutes of 19i>2 (latter part of Section), and
the bonds there named are those "issued by any town or city in aid of the
" construction of the railroads of the Connecticut Western Railroad
" Company, the New Haven Middletown & Willimantio Railroad Com" pany, the Shepaug Valley Railroad Company, the Connecticut Valley
" Railroad Co.. the Connecticut Central Railroad Company, or either of
"them." All railroads which are in whole or in part in the State are
taxed by the State under Section 2424, Chapter 147 of the Revised
Statutes, so that the tax on these bonds is paid by the railroads.
Exemption from tax of new bonds issued to redeem orto provide a fund
to redeem the railroad aid bonds, or to redeem or to provide a fund to
redeem any reissue of the same, is conferred fully by an a«t approved
.Tune 19, 1889, and found in the Revised Statutes of 1902, Section

SAVINGS BANKS INVESTMENTS-PRIVILEGES AND RESTRICTIONS.— At the session in 1899 material changes were made In
the provisions regulating the investment of the deposits of the savings
banksof Connecticut, and at the sessions in 1901, in 1903 and In 1905
the scope of such investments was still further enlarged. One of the
departures in the 1903 amendments was that street railway bonds
were then included for the first time, and the list was still further enlarged in J.1905. We give below the law as it is found
in sections 3,428 and 3,429, General Statutes of Connecticut, Revision of 1902, with the later amendments included.

Cities,
Counties and Towns
in
the
STATE OF CONNECTICUT.
Note.— For debts of minor civil divisions not found among the statements given below, see "Additional Statements" at the end of this State.
The relation which the towns, cities and boroughs of this State bear
one another Is peculiar, and requires a word of explanation. The
State is divided into eight counties, and these counties are made up of
towns, numbering in the aggregate 168. The towns are the civil unit,
and on the assessed valuation (which is called the " Grand List of each
town ") is levied the tax for State purposes as well as the tax for town
expenditures. Within the town is often situated a city or a borough, or
both, all of which may at the same time have bonds outstanding. There
are ten cities, each with one exception bearing the same name as the town
in which it lies. In recent years several towns and cities whose limits
were about identical have been consolidated and the outstanding
bonds of both town and city are reported together without distinction.
This is the case with the city and town of Hartford, which previous to
April. 1H96, reported their debts separately. The city and town of
New London have been consolidated and also Bridgeport city and
town. On December 7, 1897, city, town and school district of New
Haven were likewise consolidated.
The borough stands in about the same relation to the town as does
the city. The grand list as determined for the town is used by both the
city and the borough in levying taxes, the city, for instance, putting a
tax of its own on its share of the total grand list of the town. This tax

FROM
EXEMPTION
TAXATION.-In the Tax Law as given In
•Birdeeye'e Revised Statutes f >v iwoi (Seotion 4, Sub division 6,) there
is a general provision exempting from taxation "Bonds of this State
to be hereafter issued by the Comptroller t.> curry out the provisions
of chapter Seventy-nine of the laws of
ighteen hundred and ninetyfive" [theCanalLaw] and "bonds of a municipal corporation heretoissued
fore
for the purpose of paying np or retiring the bonded
indebtedness of such corporation." It will be seen that the reference
isto municipal bonds heretofore issued, &c. I section 7, however, of
the "general munioipal law there is also atax-exempting clause but
one much broader in its scope, as It seems to apply to the funding of
any bonds heretoloiv or hereafter put out.
In tbe case of New York City tbe existing provision of law govern
ing the matter will he found in the revised CltyChartei which went
info effect Jan. i, 1902. This provides ihat -such corporate stock and
all assessment bonds and revenue bonds, as well as all bonds hereafter
to be issued by the City of New York by virtue of this Ait or of anj
other Act, whether general or special, shall be free and exempt from
all taxation, exoepl for State purposes— [Section IG9, Title 2.
It remains to add that under special lav s some New York City bonds
are exempt from an taxes, including those for Stale purposes'. Such
is the case as regards the public-library bonds (Bryant Park) authorized by Chapter 627, Laws of 1900.

It will be noted that subdivision 7 (the last paragraph of the above)
refers to the "next section " for the provisions applicable. This reference Is to section 117 of the law of 1892 ; we omit that section as it
relates only to real estate. Sections 118, 119 and 120 of the law of
1892 (the first-mentioned section as amended in 1901) we subjoin.
Section 118. The trustees of every such corporation shall as soon as
practicable invest the moneys deposited with them in the securities
authorized by this article; but for the purpose of meeting current
payments and expenses in excess of the receipts, there may be kept an
available fund not exceeding ten per centum of the whole rnnount of

State organized under any law of this State or f the United States, or
with any trust company incorporated by any law of the State but the
sum so deposited in any one bank or trust company shall not exceed
twenty-five per centum of the paid-up capital and surplus of any such

depreciate in value, after making any loan hereon, the trustees shall
require the immediate payment of such loan or of a part thereof, or additional security therefor, so that the amount loaned shall at no time
exceed 90% of the market value of the securities pledged for the same.
Section 119. Every such corporation mav also deposit temporarily
in the banks or trust companies specified in the last section the excess
of current daily receipts over tho payments, until such time as the
same can be judiciously invested in the securities required by this

the trustees of any such corporation are violating the spirit and intent
of this provision by keeping permanently uninvested all or an undue
proportion of the moneys received oy them, he shall report the facts
to the Attorney-Ges eral, who shall proceed against such corporation in
the manner provided in section eighty-two of this chapter.
Section 120. The trustees of any savings bank shall not loan the
moneys deposited with them or any part thereof, upon notes, bills

QUEENS CO.—
County seat is Long Island City. A good part of the old County of
Queens Is now included in the Greater New York, and a law changing
tne name of that portion of the old county outside of Greater New
York to Nassau County went into effect January 1, 1899. The
amount of the outstanding bonds of this county which will be chargeable to the city of New York has been tinally determined by the
Supreme Court (V. 71, p. 875.) Under this decision the oity of New
York was made liable for $3,796,032 11 of the old debt of Queens
County as it stood at the date of division and the remaining $1,011,967 89 became an obligation of Nassau County. Instead of apportioning certain bonds to New York City and to Nassau Couuty, the debt
and interest will not be divided, but will be paid by New York City,
Nassau County paying over its proportion as it beoomes due. New
York City pays -78952414973 of the prinoipal and interest as It
becomes due, and Nassau County -21047585027.
The statement below shows the obligations of the old County of
Queens which remained outstanding on Oct. 1, 1905.

STATE.
63
(1) THE STATE Is restricted as to its debt-making power by the
State Constitution. In Article IV, Section VI, paragraphs 3 and 4, the
whole subject is disposed of. The third paragraph forbids a loan of the
State's credit, and the fourth paragraph forbids the creation of debt.
These provisions are as follows.
3. The credit of the State shall not bo dlreotly or indirectly loaned in
any
case.
shall not in any manner create any debt or debts,
liability or liabilities of the State, which shall singly or in the aggregate
with any previous debts or liabilities at any time exceed one hundred
thousand dollars, except for purposes of war, or to repel invasion, or to
4.
The Legislature
suppress insurrection, unless the same shall be authorized by a law for
single object of work, to be distinctly specified therein; which
law shall provide the ways and means, exclusive of loans, to pay the
interest of such debt or liability as it falls due, and also to pay and
discharge the principal of such debt or liability within thirty-live years
from the time of the contracting thereof, and shall bo irrepealable until
Buch debt or liability and the interest thereon are fully -paid and discharged; and no such law shall take effect until it shall, at a general
election, have been submitted to the people, and have received the
sanction of a majority of all the votes cast for and against it at such
election and all money to be raised by the authority of such law shall
be applied only to the specific object stated therein, and to the payment
of the debt thereby created. This section shall not be construed to refer to any money that has been, or may be, deposited with this State by
the Government of the United States.
According to the foregoing (4th paragraph) the power of the State for
making debt is limited to $100,000, except (1) for purposes of war etc.,
and (2) when the authorization is for some single object of work specified therein, etc. In the latter case the mode of procedure is, as will
be seen, given in the same paragraph of the Constitution.
(2) OITIES, COUNTIES, TOWNS, Etc., are also restricted in the
making of certain kinds of debt by Article I, paragraphs 19 and 20, of
the Constitution. We give the paragraph in full.
19. No county, city, borough, town, township or village shall
hereafter give any money or property, or loan its money or credit,
to or in aid of any individual, association or corporation, or become
security for or be directly or indirectly the owner of any stock or
some

20. No donation of land or appropriation of money shall be made
by the State or any municipal corporation to or for the use of
any society, association or corporation whatever.
It will be noted that the above prohibition relates "to the giving of
money, property or credit of cities, &c, to individuals, associations, or
corporations, &c, and that the prohibition is absolute, forbidding the
doing of such acts in any form, shape or manner. There is one other
restriction of the State Constitution, and that is found in Article iV.
Section VII., paragraph 11, which forbids the Legislature passing any
special laws " regulating the internal affairs of towns and counties";
in this and in all other eases in which according to the judgment of
the Legislature general laws are feasible, the Constitution states that
general laws must be provided.
In compliance with this last provision the Legislature has passed
many general laws covering bonded indebtedness of cities, towns, etc.
They are so numerous they cannot be cited here. We would refer the
reader to the Revised Statutes of New Jersey published in 1896 under
the heading "Municipal Bonds" pages 693 to 716 both inclusive; and
also to the same heading ("Municipal Bonds") pages 2220, etc.
In 1904 a law was passed limiting the power of cities to issue bonds
to 15 p.c. of the taxable value of real and personal property. This Act
also defines the method of issuing bonds.

HISTORY OF DEBT.—New Jersey has always been a conservative
State there are consequently no facts out of which to construct a history of debt issues. In a report made in 1838 the financial officer of
the State affirmed that New Jersey had put out no obligations of any
kind or loaned its credit to any company. The Constitution of 1844
forbade the creating of a State debt exceeding one hundred thousand dollars except for purposes of war, &c, as will more fully appear in the
item below with respect to " debt limitation." This exception, under
which it was allowable to exceed the hundred-thousand-dollar limit
became operative on the occasion of the breaking out of our Civil War.
Quite a debt was created at that period. The last of these war bonds
were retired on Jan. 1, 1902.
DEBT.—With the exception of $1 16,000 certificates issued
to the Commissioners of the Agricultural College under Act approved
June 13, 1 895, the State is now clear from debt, and has been since
Jan. 1, 1902. At previous dates the debt was

DEBT LIMITATIONS.—The provisions of law limiting and regulating the debt-making power in New Jersey will be better understood
and the information will be made more serviceable to the investor if
arranged in accordance with the civil divisions to which the provisions
apply.
LIMITATION
TAX RATE. -Under Chapter 83, Laws of 1905,
the rate of taxation for ounty, school and local purposes in cities
with a population of over 50,000 is limited to $17 per $1,000 of assessed viiiuatiou, and in all other cities, boroughs, villages, towns
and townships o $15 per $1,000 of valuation. Ex< option is made,
however, whenever the governing body shall by r-solntion adopt a
higher rate and the same be approved by a majority of the legol voters
at the general election next preceding the year ia which the taxis to
be collected, in which case the limit mav be exceeded. See V. 80, p.
2473.
ATTORNEY-GENERAL TO APPROVE SCHOOL BONDS -The
S'hooi law passed at the special session of the Legislature convened
Oct. 15. 190:5, provides that whenever any bonds are authorized by
townships, in- orporated town or borough school districts, the district
cltrk must trane-mit certified copies of the record -f nro-eedings to
the State Attorney-General for hi-> approval as to the legality of the
same.
TAX EXEMPTION.—The State of New Jersey passed in 1893
a general statute which exempts from taxation the bonds, securities and other evidences of indebtedness of municipal corporations; the provision covers not ouly the bonds, etc., to be hereafter
issued, but those as well that have been heretofore issued. It is a
sweeping statute, and one which is of decided interest to the holders of
the municipal securities of the State. The full text of it may be found
in the State and Crrr Supplement for Ootober, 1898, page 58.

'
SAVINGS BANKS' INVESTMENTS-POWERS AND RESTRICTIONS.—The last general savings bank law of New Jersey was
passed in 1876. Since then the legislative tendency in the matter of
Investments has been in the direction of allowing the management o f
these institutions a wider choice and a larger discretion. In 1878 the
limits of the 1876 law were broadened in several particulars by a new
act of two sections, the first taking the place of section 26 of the act of
1876. In 1886 still another law was passed in place of the first section
of the law of 1878. Again in 1889 an act was passed extending ma
terially the provisions of section two of the law of 1878, which covered the same subject matter contained in section 29 of the original law
of 1876, and thereby section 26 of the law of 1876 was superseded by
the law of 1886, and section 29 was superseded by the law of 1889. In
1901 Section two was further amended in the way specified below. In
1896 a supplement approved March 30, 1896 (Chapter 139, laws of
1896) to the law of 1876, making school district bonds an authorized
investment, went into effect. In 1897 an act was passed (approved
April 9) authorizing investments in bonds issued by commissioners
appointed by the Supreme Court of the State. In 1899 a further
supplement extending the permissible line of municipal investments
so as to include the bonds of townships and boroughs was approved
March 24. An attempt to add such securities to the list was made In
1898, but the measure then failed to receive the approval of the Governor.
The 1899 law Is
Section
as follows
be lawful for any savings bank in this State to
invest its funds in the bonds of auy city, county, town or township of
this State issued pursuant to the authority of any law of this State, or
in the bonds of any borough or village or school district of this State
issued pursuant to the authority of any law of t'us State; provided,
such borough, village or school district shall not, within the ten
years next preceding, have defaulted in the payment of any part of
either principal or interest of any legal debt or obligation thereof; and
provided further, that the total indebtedness of any such borough or
village does not exceed ten per centum of its assessed valuation, and
1. It shall
:

NEW JERSEY—CITIES AND

such school district bonds are by aw charged upon all the property of
the Inhabitants of such district, or in any interest-bearing obligation
(other than obligations commonly known as improvement certificates)
Issue 1 by the city, county, town, township, borough or village in
which such bank or institution is situated.
The fallowing is the law of 1897 (approved April 9, 1897):
"Sec. 1. It shall be lawful for any bank, trust company, savingsbank
or savings institution * * * incorporated under the laws of tills
State, tolnvest moneys belonging to or deposited with any such com_
panics in any bonds authorized by the laws of this State to be issued
by any commission appointed by the Supreme Court of this State by
virtue of any law of this State."
We omit the law of 1896 with reference to school district bonds
because its provisions are included in the laws of 1899, quoted above.
Next we give the leading provisions
of the general
law as to invest-
section of the act of which this is a supplehereby amended so as to read as follows
That it shall not be lawful, from and after the passage of this act, for
any savings bank or other savings institution, whether chartered or
Incorporated under a general or special act of the legislature of this
State, and any provision contained in the charter, or any supplement
thereto, of such savings bank or savings institution to the contrary, to
invest the moneys deposited with the same in any manner, except as
Section
1.
That the
ment be and the same
first
:
is
follows, to wit:
I In the stocks or bonds or interest-bearing notes or obligations of the
United States, or those for which the faith of the United States is
distinctly pledged to provide for the payment of the principal and
interest thereof;
II.
;
;
VT. In real estate strictly in accordance with the following provisions.
We do not reprint the real estate provisions, as they cover a matter
not germane to our present subject. It is sufficient to say that they are
two in number, marked (a) and (b), and may be summarized as below
(a) authorizes the holding of a plot for erection of a banking building or buildings, portions of which may be rented, but the cost of lot
and buildings must not exceed 50% of the net surplus of the corporation;
(b) all purchases under foreclosure sales upon mortgages owned by
the corporation or sales under judgments or decrees obtained for debts
due, etc.; and all such real estate must be sold within five years unless,
on application to the State Board having supervision of Savings Banks,
time shall be extended.
But the character of permissible investments was further greatly
enlarged by the law of 1886, which is as follows
Section 1. That it shall be lawful for any savings bank or savings institution, incorporated under any law of this State, to invest moneys
deposited with it in the bonds of any city or county of any State of the
Uniteo. States of America, which have been or may be issued pursuant
to the authority of any law of any such State; provided, no such city or
oounty has, within ten years previous to making such investment by
any such savings bank or savings institution of this State, defaulted in
the payment of any part of either principal or interest of any debt
authorizea by law of such State to be ontracted ; and provided, further, that the total indebtedness of any such city or county is limited
by law to ten percentum of its assessed valuation.
By another Act the banks also have the right to invest in railroad
bonds under certain restrictions. The authorization was given by
Section 2 of an Act approved February 22, 1888. Subsequently (April
27, 1888.) this Section 2 was repealed. On March 27, 1889, however,
was again
re-enacted.

This city got into financial difficulties through making extensive
improvements. Interest was defaulted February 1, 1879, and a
compromise was finally effected with the bondholders, by which new 4
percent bonds dated July 1, 1882, were issued in exchange for the
old 7 per cent bonds turned in at 50 per cent of their face value.
Elizabeth is in Union County. Incorporated a town March 26, 1796;
a city March 12, 1855. [The refunding of the adjustment 4s is being

taxes and assessments. On February 13, 1900, the citizens authorized the purchase of a water plant for the num of $7,595,000.

(subsequently assigned to the East Jersey W*ter Co. and by them
to the Jersey City Water Supcly Co.) to build the water works, the
same to be completed by Deo. 25, 1903. The time was further extended to March I, 1904, but it was not until Nov. 16, 1901, that the
contractors wrote the oity that the plant bad been complete!. The city
has paid nothing on this pla (, mil has two yean in which to test

This city, of Union County, was declared bankrupt in 1882, and a compromise of the debt exclusive of the water debt ($135,000) was forthwith agreed to with most of the leading oreditors at 35 cents on the
dollar, the debt, exclusive of water debt, then amounting to about
$1,200,000. This settlement was completed in 1894, and interest is
now paid promptly on the new bonds. The water bonds were renewed
In 1891 at 4 per cent, an agreement having been made in 1890 by which
all accrued interest at 7 p. 0. was adjusted at the 35 p. 0. rate. Interest
on these water bonds is also now promptly paid. Incorporated 1853.

SAVINGS BANKS INVESTMENTS-POWERS AND RESTRICTIONS.—Philadelphia is, we believe, entitled to the distinction
of starting the first savings institution in the United States. The
name this association bore was the " Philadelphia Savings Fund
and it still exists, bearing the same name. Originally the
bank was not incorporated, but was a voluntary r "ganization, suoh

It was not until 1889, as already
stated, that a general law facilitating the organization of savings institutions was passed.
The
following is section 17, which contains the investment limitations we
would especially direct attention to subdivision four of this section;
Section 17.— It shall be lawful for the trustees of any savings bank
to invest money deposited therein only as follows:

(December 2, 1816) of five dollars. The company was not incorporated until February 25, 1819. The second savings institution in
the 8U te, however, did not come into existence until 1847. In 1889 a
general law facilitating the incorporation of savings banks was passed
by the 1 egislature. Still, the report of the Banking Department shows
that in November, 1904, the total number of savings banks within the
State was only ten. The aggregate deposits of these banks at that
date was $135,151,848.
The provisions of the special cuarters are all liberal as to investments. A law passed in 1885, and a supplement of the same passed
in 1889, authorizing the extension for twenty years of special charters, contains the following.
"Provided also, that no * * * Savings Institution or Savings
Bank having no capital stock, renewing or extending its charter,

HISTORY OF DEBT.—Tne historical details of Delaware's State
debt from 1865 to In94 will be found in the State and City Supplement of April, 1894, page 72. The present extent and condition of
the debt and resources of the State are given below, showing that
Delaware now holds good assets more than equaling its liabilities.

INTEREST.—On bonds of series "B" and the Refunding bonds
of 1897 is payable at the Philadelphia National Bank In Philadelphia;
on bonds of 895 at Farmers' Bank at Wilmington.
DEBT, Etc.—The total liabilities on Jan. 1, 1905, were
$811,750, incluiing $42,000 "guarantee railway deposits." The
assets on Jan. 1, 1905, were $1,458,561; assets In excess of liabilities $646,811. The total assets include bank stocks $766,772 (market value): mortgages on railroads $385,000; bonds, $15t>,750, real
e.-tate, $83,000, and cash in treasury, $67,039.
ASSESSED VALUATION.—The total assessed valuation of the
State in 1904 was $73,064,716. No tax Is levied for general State
purposes.
DEBT LIMITATION.—Neitherthe new Constitution (adopted June
4, 1897,) nor the old Constitution nor the State statutes contain any
general provisions authorizing bond issues or limiting the debtonaking
power, except that the new Constitution—
(1) Forbids the State (Article 8, Sec 3) to borrow money or create
debt, "but pursuant to an Act of the General Assembly passed with
the concurrence of three-fourths of all the members elected to each
House, except to supply casual deficiencies, repel invasion, suppress
insurrections, defend the State in war or pay existing debts.'
(2) Forbids any county, city, town or other municipality (Article 8.
Sec. 8) to "lend its credit or appropriate money to, or assume the debt
of, or become a shareholder or loint owner in, or with, any private
corporation or any person or company whatever."
(3) Forbids any corporation (Article 9, Sec 1) to be created, etc, by
special act, "but only by or under general law"; "but the foregoing
provisions shall not apply to municipal corporations, banks," etc
The above indicates that the authority as regards municipalities [except as already specified in number (2)] rests with the General
Assembly, and the General Assembly always passes special acts to
provide for special occasions and needs.

SAVINGS BANKS INVESTMENTS.-There are in
banking laws under which savings banks may be
this State genorganized, and
yet we notice that as late as 1890 a special charter was granted Incorporating the Germania Sav Bank of Baltimore. However, in both the
general and special laws there appears to be a pretty general authority
granted for investing the deposits. The general law states thai;
Any savings institution incorporated under this article shall be
capable of receiving from any person or persons, or bodies corporate or
politic, any deposit of money which shall be invested or loaned out on
good security in the discretion of the directors; provided that no part of
the funds of said corporation shall be loaned to any officer or director of
such corporation.
In the special law passed in 1890, which we have referred to above,
the power to loan the deposits is made a little more definite. The section referring to that subject states that the " corporation shall have
"power to borrow money, receive money on deposit, loan money
"taking such security therefor, either real or personal, as the Board of
" Directors may deem sufficient; provided that no part of the funds of
" said corporation shall be loaned to an officer or director thereof."
We cannot discover any marked difference in the two provisions
cited, except that the enactment in the case of the new Baltimore bank
states distinctly that the security can be either real or personal. But as
much as that would, we think, be assumed as authorized under the general provision, since no limit is made and loaning on bond and mortgage
is always a legitimate part of the business of savings banks.

Article 3, we find that "the credit of the Sfate shall not in any manner
be given, or loaned to, or in aid of any Individual association or cor
poratlon; nor shall the General Assembly have the power in any
mode to involve the State in the construction of works of internal
improvement, nor in granting any aid thereto, which shall
Involve the faith or credit of the State." No general limit for cities
and towns has been fixed by the Legislature, uor is there any general
authorization to be found in the statutes under which oitles and towns
can issue bonds. This power is lodged in the Legislature, and is delegated to the municipalities from time to time for specific purposes as
the occasion may arise. It is necessary, therefore, for the investor to
study the law in each case on this as well as on other points affecting
the loan with respect to which he may need Information.

Xhe falling off in the sinking fund for Dec. 31, 1904, was caused by
the transfer from the general sinking fund to a special fund for use in
the Burnt District of *4,42<2,460 74 (plus accumulated interest) of the
sum received from the sale of the stock of the Western Maryland. This
was done under authority of Chapter 87, Laws of 1904.
The city's holdings in the Western Marylana were sold early in May,
1902 for SS.751,370 45. V. 74, p 999. The disposition made of this
Bum was fully given In V. 75, p. 202-$4,26 i.000 being deposited with
several local banfcs and trust oompaniea. for a fixed period of 25 years
at 3^ per cent interest, and $<;5,909 66 invested in city loans, these
sums being set aside to meet the Western Maryland bonds for the
pavment of which the city is responsible. The remainder was deposited at 3 H per oent, subject to withdrawal on 30 days' notioe, and
was withdrawn after the big tire.— see note above. The sale of this
stock accounts for the great increase in 1902 In sinking fund assets.
Against the net debt of $25,570,078 on Dec. 31, 1904, the city
reports productive assets amounting to $a, 850,019, $8,627,500 of
this representing the outstanding water loans.
On Deo. 3 1, 190 1, besides the above assets, the city held unproductive
:
assets to the amount of $2,750,000, representing the cost of the new
Court House. The value of city property, excluding the new Court
House, was $11,500,000.

Columbia.
(INCLUD'G THE LATE CORPORATION OP WASHINGTON.)
On July 1, 1878, the duties of the Sinking Fund Commissioners of the
District of Columbia were transferred to the Treasurer of the United
States, and since that date Congress has appropriated annually a sum
sufficient to pay not only the interest on the District's bonds but also,
it is believed, sufficient to extinguish the entire debt of the District upon
the maturity of the 3-65 per cent loan, in 1924. Bonds are tax exempt.

DEBT LIMITATION.—Ohio has very carefully guarded the debt
making power of the 8tate. This could not be said while the Constitution of 1802 was In force for under that instrument it was competent
for the Legislature to construct works of internal Improvement on
behalf of the State, or to aid In their construction by subscribing to the
;
capital stock of corporations created for that purpose, or to authorize
wayH the creation of debt in UDlimlted amounts. But since the
adoption of the Constitution of 1851 the whole situation in these particulars has changed, the legislative power with respect to the State
having heen limited. The same is in large measure true also of the
municipalities.

I'ower to the supply of " casual deficits In revenues or to meet expenses
not otherwise provided for," but in the aggregate debts for even the
purposes named cannot exceed $750,000. Section 2 contains an excepit grants the power to contract debt in case of int. on to the foregoing
vasion, of insurrection, of war or of the redemption of the then existing
indebtedness. Section 3 reaffirms the limit, except as above specified.
Section 4 forbids the loaning of the State credit. Section 5 further forbids
the assumption of debts by States. We insert these tive sections in full.
Section 1. [Debt limited to seven hundred and fifty I housand dollars].
The State may contract debts to supply casual deficits or failures in
revenues or to meet expenses not otherwise provided for; but the
aggregate amount of such debts direct and contingent whether
contracted by virtue of one or more acts of the General Assembly, or at
different periods of time, shall never exceed seven hundred and fifty
thousand dollars; and the money arising from the creation of such
debts shall be applied to the purpose for which it was obtained or to
re-pay the debts so contracted and to no other purpose whatever.
Section 2. [Additional and for what purpose.] In addition to the
above limited power the State may contract debts to repel invasion,
suppress insurrection, defend the State in war, or to redeem the present
outstanding indebtedness of the State; but the money arising from the
contracting of such debts shall be applied to the purpose for which it
was raised, or to re-pay such debts, and to no other purpose whatever;
and all debts incurred to redeem the present outstanding Indebtedness of the State shall be so contracted as to be payable by the
sinking fund hereinafter provided for as the same shall accumulate.
Section 3. [The Slate to create no other debt.] Exceptthe debts above
specified in Sections 1 and 2 of this article, no debt whatever shall hereafter be created by or on behalf of the State.
Suction 4. [Credit of Slate; the State shall not become joint owner or
storkholder.] The credit of the State Bhall not in any manner be given
or loaned to or in aid of any individual association or corporation whatever: nor shall the State ever hereafter become a Joint owner or stockholder in any company or association in this State or elsewhere formed
for any purjiose whatever.
Section 5. [No assumption of debts by the State.] The State shall
never assume the debts of any county, city, town or township, or of
an5* corporation whatever, unless such debt shall have been created to
repel invasion, suppress insurrection or defend the State in war.
The foregoing sections complete the limitation as to State debt and
credit. Sections 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 of Article 8 cover the matter of sinking funds referred to.ln Section 2 above. But they need not be published

SECOND, As to
Cities,
Towns, Counties,
<&c, so far as
the Constitution
affects the power of the Legislature to authorize these municipalities to create debt, the limitations are found in section 6 of article
8 and in sections 1, 2 and 6 of article 13.
6 of
(1) Section

article
8 forbids the General Assembly to
&c, to become stockholders in or to raise money or loan
Credit to aid corporations, &o. (2) Sections 1 and 2 of article 13 forbid
the passing of special acts and require general acts for conferring corporate powers. (3) Section 6 of article 13 provides that the General
Assembly make provision for the organization of cities, <fcc, by general
laws and restrict their debt-making power. These sections are as follows:
Article 8, Section 6. [Counties, cities, towns or townships not authorized to become stockholders, <£c] The General Assembly shall never
authorise any county, city, town or township, by vote of its citizens or
otherwise, to become a stockholder in any joint stock company, corporation or association whatever; or to raise money for, or loan its credit
to, or in aid of, any such company, corporation or association.
Artici.k 13, Section 1. [Corporate powers]. The General Assembly
shall pass no special act conferring corporate powers.
Section 2. [Corporations how formed]. Corporations may be formed
under general laws but all such laws may from time to time bo altered
or repealed.
Section 6. [Organization of cities, tie] The General Assembly shall
provide for the organization, of cities and incorporated villages by general laws and restrict their power of taxation, assessment, borrowing
money, contracting debts and loaning their credit, so as to prevent the
buse of such power.
One at first sight would infer from section 6 article 8 above olted that
cities could not subscribe to the stock of or loan money to railroads, as
railroads are corporations and joint-stock companies. That, however,
is not a correct conclusion, as was decided in the case of Walker vs. The
City of Cincinnati, a case which arose under an aot of the General
Assembly of Ohio entitled " An Act relating to cities of the first olass,"
authorizing any such city to construct a line of railroad therefrom to
any other terminus In that State or in any other State. In
pursuance of the authority that aot purports to give, Cincinnati
undertook to build the Cincinnati Southern Railroad. To test the legality of that proceeding this action was brought. The Court'B opinion is
very full and explicit, the conclusion being that from "the language
•' of the section It Is
aalte evident that it was not intended to prohibit
"the construction of railroads nor indee'd to prohibit any species of
"public improvements. The section contains no direct reference to
" railroads nor to any other special classes of improvements or enter;

" prises. The inhibitions are directed only against a particular manner

found their way on to the statute books, nominally general In their
scope, but really so worded as to apply to only one city. In June,
1902, however, the State Supreme Court handad down several decisions deolaring such laws special legislation and therefore unconstitutional. The decisions were considered to \>i of such broad application that the Governor called an extra session of the Lesrisiature
for the purpose of framing a new general municipal code. The extra
session oonvened Aug 25, 1902, and after a session of nearly two
months passed a new "municipal code"— a document too lengthy to
quote In these columns. We w>uld refer our readers, therefore, to
pages 994 and 995 of the Chronicle, Nov. I, 1902. wherein will be
found at length the more salient points of this Important measure.
It remains to be said that at the regular session of the Legislature
In 1902 an Act popularly known as the "Longwortk Omuibus bill"
was passed and subsequently upheld oy the Statu Supreme Court.
This Act (which will be fou id in full in V. 7t, p. 1320) amends Sections 2835. 2-t36 and 28 -i7 Revised Statutes of Ohio, relating to the
issuance of bonds by cities, villages and other municipal corporations.
Under the new law the municipal boar Is of legislation, oounoils, etc.,
may by two-thirds votn issue binds for certain specified purposes to
the extent of 1% of the assessed valuation yearly (biit not exceeding
4% in the aggregate) without submitting the question to a vote of the
people. Bouds issued under this Aoi in excess of 1% in any one year,
or In excess of i% in the aggregate, must first be submitted to a vote
of the people and carried by two thirds of those voting on the proposition, but not more than 8% in the aggregate can be .uthorized in any
eve^t. The law passed at the extra session re-aftirms the provision
of this statute, which therefore remains in full effect.
