THE INVESTMENTS OF THE SAVINGS BANKS OF THIS STATE. On two or three occasions during the last twelve or fift(ien- roam, we have presented statistics to show the investments of the the extent and charac-tet desirable savings institutions of this State. A to bring the figures down to the present year in ',qew of the growing magnitude of the deposits and resources of these institutions. Notwithstanding the panic of 1907 and the resulting great prostration of trade, prolonged for many months, during which a large portion of the laboring population was reduced to idleness and the income of many other persons who patronize savings institutions was considerably shortened, savings deposits as a whole suffered no reduction. The growth during the last two years has been smaller in both ratio and amount than we have been accustomed to see in normal periods, but there has been gain, nevertheless, and for Jan. 1909 the total was larger than it had ever been before and for July 1 1909 there was a yet further addition to the amount. In the present article we shall confine ourselves to the figures for the 1st of January, since this is the latest date for which details of the investments are available. With the constant expansion in the deposits, the aggregates now reach huge dimensions. On January 1 1909 the total of the deposits fell but little short of 1,400 million dollars, being in exact figures $1,396,443,328, while aggregate resources actually exceeded 1M thousand million dollars, the precise figures in this latter instance being $1,503,240,206. ForJuly 1 1909 there was a further addition to the deposits of $48,531,532. As indicating how the financial disturbances and business depression served to reduce the growth in deposits without actually checking it, we may note that the total at $1,396,- No. 2318. 443,328 for Jan. 1 1909 compares with $1,380,399,090 for Jan. 1 1908 and $1,362,035,837 for Jan. 11907, giving an addition for the two years of only $34,407,491, whereas in the calendar year preceding the addition had been nearly $70,000,000, the deposits for Jan. 1 1906 having been reported $1,292,358,867, from which there was a rise to $1,362,035,837 in the twelve months to Jan. 11907. Interest in the investments lies in their distribution among the various classes of securities in which the savings banks are allowed to employ their funds. Since the revision made in 1905 there has been no very material change in the statute defining the securities in which these savings institutions may lodge their moneys, but the policy of the State in permitting the purchase of railroad mortgages has at times been criticised. These criticisms have come from those who argue that the municipalities of this State are in constant need of new money and are putting out additional bonds for this purpose from time to time (the City of New York being a tremendous borrower, .as is well known), and that the State itself is appearing in the market for additional funds in connection with s work on the Erie Canal and also for the purpose of bailing new roads. It is contended that if the State shoulTryfffthe'Walks the privilege of buying railroad bonds and limited the same to mu*ipal set curities, a larger and better marl asivrihese latter could be obtained. Such a view would appeg to ignore the needs of the savings banks themselv6,,, and if the policy indicated were adopted and had the effect intended, the result would be that dividends to savings depositors would, perforce, be reduced in order that the municipalities of the State might be able to float their obligations at lower rates of interest. The real truth is that savings deposits in New York have been expanding in such a way that an enlargement of the scope of their investment field was an absolute necessity, having rogard for the situation and interests of that important part of the community to which savings banks chiefly cater. The banks were for the first time given authority to invest in first mortgage railroad bonds in 1898. The railroad list, at first very much restricted, was gradually added to, and in 1905 a further amendment was made fixing general standards for future additions, both in the case of railroad securities and municipal securities. On Jan. 11898, when the banks did not yet possess authority to purchase railroad bonds, the deposits, while large, amounted, nevertheless, to no more than $766,684,916. For the 1st of January of the present year the total, as we have already seen, was no less than $1,396,443,328. In this period:of eleven years, I VoL. Lx.xxix. STATE AND CITY SECTION. therefore, the volume of deposits for which the managers of the institutions were obliged to find remunerative employment was added to in amount of $630,000,000. But the considerations supporting the addition of railroad investments to the list are not found alone in the great increase in the volume of the deposits. A further reason has been that some of the old forms of investment, in which the banks have had a considerable part of their moneys employed, have been growing scarce, or else, by reason of their prices, have been getting beyond the reach of the banks as remunerative investments. On Jan. 1 1898 the savings banks held considerably over $100,000,000 of United States Government bonds and over $56,000,000 of State bonds. But very few States have been putting out new bonds in large amounts in recent decades, New York and Massachusetts being about the only conspicuous exceptions to the rule. Elsewhere old issues of State bonds have been gradually paid off, and, as already stated, new issues have not been very extensive. Here then, was one class of obligations for which a substitute had to be found. As far as United States Government bonds are concerned, the situation there has been that, owing to the refunding operations of the Government which have been conducted in the interval 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 been ruling at prices where it became unprofitable for the banks to buy or to hold them. The change in that respect is indicated by the fact that, whereas on Jan. 1 1898 the New York savings institutions held $100,708,450 of Government bonds and $5,589,800 of District of Columbia bonds,on Jan.1 1909 their holdings of United States bonds amounted to only $4,348,580 and of District of Columbia bonds to but $361,800. In view of the tremendous growth in the deposits and the passing out of reach of these other forms of investment, it must be considered that the trustees have shown no undue desire to avail of the new privilege, and purchase railroad bonds. On the contrary, they have displayed a wise discretion, and have distributed their investments quite equably among the different classes of securities open to them., On Jan. 1 1909 their entire holdings of railroad moligage . bonds aggregated $227,934998. -This—is- no mean sum obviously, but it trAist be considered in reference to the 19s.t...-t-halrtrie banks at the same date had . aggregate resources of no less than $1,503,240,206. . I 3 worthy of note, too, that even during the last or three years no disposition has been evinced to enlarge the holdings of railroad mortgages. This is especially significant inasmuch as during 1907 and 1908 some extraordinary opportunities existed to acquire bonds at very low prices. Owing to the panic and the antecedent crusade on the part of the national and the State governments against the railroads, prices of railroad securities suffered a tremendous shrinkage. In these circumstances a considerable addition to savings bank holdings could have occasioned no surprise. As a matter of fact, nothing of the kind occurred. Possibly the very attacks which were responsible for the declines in values also served to deter bank managers from extending their quotas of the same. At all events, at $227,934,998 for Jan. 1 1909 the holdings of railroad bonds compare with $226,649,598 for Jan. 1 1908 and $229,758,798 for Jan. 1 1907. In the two years from 1907 to 1909 there was thus actually a decrease in the railroad mortgage investments of nearly $2,000,000. , It is further worthy of note that in these two years the holdings of State and city bonds have also diminished. Here, too, then,the allurement of low prices did not tempt the trustees to extend their lines of these classes of investments. During the last fifteen or eighteen months prices of municipal obligations have again been on the up-grade, the same as market values of railroad securities, but during 1907 extremely low figures were reached and many real bargains could be obtained; yet the savings bank officials manifested no inclination to avail of the same. Observe that the aggregate par value of the holdings of city bonds of this State January 1 1909 was $186,897,639, against $189,049,179 January 1 1908 and $190,285,565 January 1 1907; furthermore, the holdings of city bonds of other States fell to $108,880,949 from $111,918,210 January 1 1908 and $116,379,249 January 1 1907. There has also been a decrease in the holdings of State bonds other than those of this State. The reason why the savings bank officials did not pick up bargains in the municipal bond field and the railroad mortgage market would appear to be that they saw equally attractive bargains in another direction much more to their liking. The savings banks have always preferred real estate mortgages to all other forms of investment, as is evident from the fact that they have been employing the vast preponderating extent of their funds in purchases of that class of obligations. The discredit attaching to everything else during the monetary stringency and financial disturbances extended likewise to real estate mortgages,and it was possible for buyers of Auch mortgages to obtain higher rates of interest than for a decade or more. The trustees of the savings banks therefore gave free rein to their preference for such obligations and greatly added to their holdings of the same. That conclusion is fully authorized, seeing that for January 1 1909 the real estate mortgages are reported at $747,119,428, against $722,365,987 for January 1 1908, $688,066,201 for January 1 1907 and only $639,742,228 for January 1 1906. In the three years the addition under this head has been over $107,000,000. In the same three years the deposits have risen only a little over $104,000,000 and the increase in total resources has been less than 973' million dollars. The changes which have occurred in the various classes of holdings the last three yeam is interesting that we have had the frIlowing tabular statement prepared giving, full details of the investments for the 1st , January in each of the last four years: )f.

In the above we use the market value, In order to preserve the basis of comparison with previous years. As the investment value was $658,702,198, as against the above market value of $623,331,857, the effect of the use of the former is to raise surplus from 5105.493,132 to $138,863,473, and total resources from $1,503,240,206 to $1,536,610,547. Another comparison seems desirable in order to reveal clearly the investment trend on the part of the trustees of the savings institutions. We have had a table prepared contrasting the details of the investments on January 1 1909 with those for January 1 1898, the latter the annual date just preceding the time when the banks were given authority to invest in railroad mortgages. Before presenting the table, however, it is proper to point out that in the line Nov. 1909.] STATE AND CITY SECTION. of municipal investments the statute regulating the investments has also undergone a material change in the interval of eleven Years. When the law was remodeled in 1905 as regards the railroad investments by fixing general standards for future additions to the list, it was also remodeled as to the municipal list so as to widen the choice and extend the latitude of bank trustees. Previously the lawmaker had designated particular cities the bonds of which might be purchased; under the change general requirements were fixed and authority given to purchase the obligations of any city that measured up to such requirements. Stated in brief, prior to the 1905 amendment, the banks were limited in their investments to the stocks or bonds of the following cities[in addition to the bonds of any city, county, town or village, school district and union free school district in this State]: Boston, Worcester, Cambridge, Lowell, Fall River, Springfield and Holyoke in the State of Massachusetts; St. Louis in the State of Missouri; Cleveland, Cincinnati and Toledo in the State of Ohio; Detroit and Grand Rapids in the State of Michigan; Providence in the State of Rhode Island; New Haven and Hartford in the State of Connecticut; Portland in the State of Maine; Philadelphia Pittsburgh, Allegheny, Reading and Scranton in the State of Pennsylvania; Minneapolis and St. Paul in the State of Minnesota; Des Moines in the State of Iowa; Milwaukee in the State of Wisconsin; Louisville in the State of Kentucky; Paterson, Trenton, Newark and Camden in the State of New Jersey; Baltimore in the State of Maryland, and Los Angeles in the State of California. What qualification a municipal bond must now possess in order to be eligible for the savings banks can be seen by reference to the provisions of the statute as printed on a subsequent page of this issue under the State of New York, namely page 41. In a general way, it may be said here that,aside from the old requirements that the aggregate debt, less water debt and sinking funds, must not exceed 7% of the city's valuation for purposes of taxation, the first condition is that 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 or defaulted in the payment of any part of the principal or interest of any debt authorized by the Legislature of any such State. Then the city must have not 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 since Jan. 1 1878 for more than 90 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." With' these preliminary remarks the reader is prepared to interpret intelligently the following comparison between the figures of 1898 and 1909.

In 1898 they held only $358,943,901 of these mortgages, now they hold $747,119,428-that is, they have more than doubled this item, having added in the eleven years over 388 million dollars. The addition to deposits in the same interval has been not quite $630,000,000 and the addition to resources $633,000,000. Not only has there been this large increase in the amount of these mortgages, but the proportion which they bear to total resources has also moved up in a marked degree, rising from 41.27% to 49.71%. In United States Government bonds and those of the District of Columbia there has been a decrease, as already noted, of over 101M million dollars. The holdings of State bonds, except those of New York State, have also fallen off. As against the decline here, the $227,934,998 of railroad bonds form a new item. In the holdings of municipal bonds there has been an increase of nearly $115,000,000, city bonds of this State now standing at $186,897,639, against $128,855,349 and the holdings of city bonds of other States at $108,880,949, against $52,300,426. In ratio to total resources there has been some falling off, of course, with the extension of the real estate mortgage investment and the appearance of railroad bonds as a new field for the employment of the funds of the institutions. Still the decline has not been very striking. It remains to add that the increased liberty given by the 1905 amendment for the making of investments in municipal bonds of other States appears not to have served to displace investments in the municipal bonds of this State in the four years since then. In truth, there has actually been a decline in this item during the four years, inasmuch as on January 1 1905 the banks had held $112,303,399 of bonds of municipalities of other States, while now the total is only $108,880.949. DECISION REGARDING METHODS OF ASSESSING FRANCHISE TAX. The decision handed down on Oct. 19 by the New York Court of Appeals in the case of The People of the State of New York ex rel Jamaica Water Supply Co., respondent, vs. The gtate Board of Tax Commissioners and the City of New York, appellants, is justly regarded as of great value for the light it throws on-the-que,stion of what the courts in this State would regard,in prob,: ably a majority of cases at least, as the proper method' of determining the valuation of special franchises for purposes of assessment under the law of 1899. The law had previously, viz., in 1903, been held to be constitutional in the Metropolitan Street Ry. case, but the decision which has just been rendered is the first one by the highest Court of the State touching on the many questions arising in appraising special franchises for taxation. The decision covers a number of important points, and the conclusions of the Court are summarized in the syllabus to the opinion, as follows: (1) The State Board of Tax Commissioners, in fixing the value of a special franchise for purposes of taxation, is not confined to any exclusive rule, but may avail itself of any rule or method reasonably adapted to ascertaining its true value. (2) The courts will assume at the outset that the valuation fixed by the board of assessors was correct, and the party assailing the assessment has the burden of establishing the contrary. (3) The statute contemplates that the assessing officers, in their return to the writ, should disclose to the court their method of arriving at the valuation. (4) When the method known as the "net earnings rule" is adopted in ascertaining the value of a special 8 STATE AND CITY SECTION. franchise, taxes other than the special franchise tax should be deducted from the gross earnings in order to determine the net earnings of the company. There should also be deducted a reasonable amount to meet the general depreciation of the plant not covered by ordinary repairs. (5) In ascertaining the proportion of the net earnings attributable to the enjoyment of a special franchise, under the net earnings rule, the court below might take judicial notice that 6% should be allowed as a fair return upon the capital invested by the company in real estate and other tangible property. In fixing the value of its tangible property land occupied by the plant should be taken at its present value. (6) Upon the question of equalization an assessment for a special franchise tax should be made at the same ratio of actual or true value as other property in the county appearing on the assessment roll. The question of unequal assessment may be reviewed by the courts on certiorari. (7) It would seem, in a case like this, that 7% was a proper rate to adopt in capitalizing the surplus earnings, under the net earnings rule, to provide a sinking fund for unforeseen contingencies. The case was begun by a writ of certiorari directing the State Board of Tax Commissioners to make a return of their method of procedure in assessing the special franchise. The latter made a general but not a precise or itemized statement of the method of arriving at the sum of $800,000 as the value of the special franchise of the company. The referee appointed by the lower court (Special Term) assumed that the State Board should have valued the relator's special franchise by the application of what is known as the net earnings rule, and, applying this rule as he understood it, he reached the conclusion that the special franchise valued in this manner would exceed the valuation fixed by the Board. His findings and conclusions were adopted by the Special Term, which affirmed the Board's valuation. The Appellate Division of the Supreme Court, Third Department, while sanctioning the use of the net earnings rule, reversed the lower court's decision on the ground that the proper application of the net earnings rule would result in more,fev -rcraliks, tr2atiiimi of the relator than he had rec_eilied, and remitted the matter to the Board frfthtii consideration and a new assessmen e Court of Appeals likewise, while stating t Al the Legislature has not directed that any particular method be used in fixing the valuation, and that in its opinion it is beyond the province of the courts to lay down an exclusive rule applicable to all cases, and also conceding that there are many reasonable methods which might be employed in various cases, admits that the net earnings rule is a fair one in the case of the Jamaica Water Supply Co. and similar cases. The order of the Appellate Division is modified so as to remit the case to the Special Term instead of to the State Board of Tax Commissioners, for further consideration. The Court itself (Judge Willard Bartlett writing the opinion, which is concurred in by all the Judges except two not sitting) states that it is its purpose to express views which may be useful to the assessing officers in all cases where they may see fit to apply the net earnings rule. The State was represented by Attorney-General Edward R. O'Malley. In view of the wide interest in the case, counsel for the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Co., Consolidated Gas Co. of New York, receivers of the Metropolitan Street Ry. of this city, and other large corporations, who were allowed to intervene, were heard upon the appeal by leave of the Court. The special franchise taxes due by various corporations in the State, as fixed by the State Board of Tax Commissioners, which remain unpaid, aggregate, according to newspaper reports, about $50,000,000, of which this city's share is about $27,000,000. There is, of course, Lxxxix. no way of estimating how these amounts may be affected by the court's ruling. It is expected, however, that many corporations will now be willing to settle the pending litigation against them, and that the city will hence, to that extent, be relieved from the necessity of issuing special revenue bonds in anticipation of such taxes. The Court states that special franchises consist of (1) the intangible franchise, right or permit to use streets and public places, and (2) the tangible property situated in streets and public places and used in connection with the operation under the franchise. The method of application .of the net earnings rule is thus stated: (a) Ascertain the gross earnings; (b)deduct the operating expenses; (c) deduct a fair and reasonable return on that portion of the capital of the corporation which is invested in tangible property. The resulting balance, it is stated, gives the earnings attributable to the special franchise, and if this balance be capitalized at a fair rate,we have the value of the franchise. The operating expenses should include the taxes (other than for special franchise) for the year, the net earnings being reduced thereby. A proper amount, according to the particular case, should also be deducted for depreciation. In the absence of special proof, a return of 6% -on the tangible property forming part of the special franchise is, on the authority of the United States Supreme Court in the Consolidated Gas Co. of New York case (157 Fed. Rep., 849, 869), held to be a fair one on the investment. The Court' says notice should be taken of the fact that in the conduct of many industrial enterprises there is a constant deterioration of the plant which is not made good by ordinary repairs, which, of course, operates continually to lessen the value of the tangible property which it affects. The amount of this depreciation differs in different enterprises, but the annual rate is usually capable of estimate and proof by skilled witnesses. No corporation would be regarded as well conducted which did not make some provision for the necessity of ultimately replacing the property thus suffering deterioration; and an allowance for this purpose should be made out of gross earnings in order to ascertain the true earnings capacity. The land included in the tangible property is to be valued as of the date of the assessment and not at its original cost, the company to be entitled to the benefit of the increase in value of the land. It is admitted there may be exceptions to the rule where the property may have increased so enormously in value as to render a rate permitting a reasonable return on such increased value unfair to the public, but the Court does not decide how such facts shall be treated, as the case before it did not present the question. It is admitted, too, that there are obviously many cases to which the net earnings rule would not apply at all, as, e. g., the case of a corporation which, by reason of mismanagement or other causes, had perhaps yielded no earnings for many years. In such cases it might be wholly contrary to the truth to hold that the special franchise had no value simply because there happened to have been no earnings by which that value could be measured—in such cases some other reasonable rule would have to be applied. The Court deals lastly with the question of equalization, holding that the assessment on the valuation of the franchise, which is classed as real estate, must, when ascertained, be equalized. with other real property in the same locality, i. e., be taxed at the same percentage of its full value as the other real estate. It appears that under the law no power is given to the assessors themselves to equalize the assessment, and a modification by the Legislature in this respect is recommended. In capitalizing the final returns the referee adopted the rate of 7% to provide a sinking fund for unforeseen contingencies, while the Appellate Division, without giving any reason for the difference of opinion, said that the surplus earnings should be capitalized at 6%. In view of the character of the business of the relator, however, the Court of Appeals thought the rate adopted by the referee is preferable. Nov., 1909.J 9 UNITED STATES DEBT. United Stales Debt and Iis History. The following is a statement of the debt of the United States past and present. To add to its usefulness we give references to the laws authorizing each of the issues of bonds outstanding to-day, and likewise so far as we deem it needful, citations from those laws. All our figures, except when otherwise noted, represent the status at the close of business June 30 or the beginning of business on July 1 of each fiscal year. To conform to that feature and yet furnish information through which any reader can always have the data for a correct exhibit of the debt situation at any past or future day, and make an accurate comparison with previous years, we present,first, the details as they stood at the close of the last fiscal year ending June 301909; second, the changes in those details since June 30 1009 down to Nov.1 1909; third, the items of interest-bearing debt, Arc., at the beginning of each fiscal year since July 11878; fourth, we publish in the "Chronicle" every month—usually the first or second Saturday—the full detailed Government statement of the debt as reported by the Treasurer on the last day of the previous month; some months lack of space forces us to delay the publication to a later week. With these data at his command, it would seem as if any inquirer could satisfy himself fully with reference to every point which might become of importance for him to know respecting the United States debt.

Of these 2%sthere were outstanding Nov. 1 1909, according to debt statement, $646,250,150. "LOAN OF 1908-1018."—(Column 8.) The bonds included under this head are an Issue of 6198,792,680 3%s. They were authorigod by Act of June 13 1898 and are known as the "War Loan." The law provided that in allotting said bonds the individual subscriptions of the lowest amount must be first allotted. On the day the Act was signed a Treasury circular was issued (see circular In "Chronicle" of June 18 1898, page 1168) Inviting subscriptions for 33 days, from June 13 to July 14, for the amount of bonds stated, In both coupon and registered form, coupon In denominations of $20, $100, $500 and $1,000, and registered In denominations of same amounts, and also in $5,000 and $10,000, dated August 1 1898, redeemable in coin at the pleasure of the United States after ten years from date of Issue, and due and payable August 1 1918. See circular for further details. Subscriptions reached the amount of $1,325,000,000. The amount now outstanding (Nov 1 1909) Is 563,945,460 "FUNDED LOAN OF 1907"(Column (3) 4s.

On March 12 1870 the issue of these certificates and their exchange Into 4% bonds were authorized; the certificates were to draw 4% Interest from April 1 1879 and were convertible In 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 Oct. 31 1870 the entire authorization had been reached, the maximum amount of the issue being 540.012 750. Of these there were still outstanding on Nov. 1 1909 a total of $17,720, Included In debt bearing no Interest. "LOAN OF 1925."—(Column 6.) Sales of bonds included under this designation were effected (1) in February 1805 to the amount of $62,315,400. . and (2) in February 1806 to the amount of $100,000,000. In a message to Congress under date of February 8 1895 (published in the 'Chronicle" February 9 1895, page 244), President Cleveland stated In substance that In pursuance of Section 3700 of the Revised Statutes the details of an arrangment have this day been concluded whereby bonds authorized under the Act of July 14 1875, payable In doin at tile pleasure of the United States after the first day of Feb. 1925, with Interest at the rate of 4% 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 U% per annum. At least one-half of the gold to be obtained is to be supplied from abroad. Section 3700 of the revised Statutes Is as follows: "Sec. 3700. The Secretary of the Treasury may purchase coin with any of the bonds or notes of the United States authorized by law at such rated and upon such terms as he may deem most advantageous to the public interest." For a construction of tile "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 called the "Loan of 1925.' of which there are outstanding $118,489.900. ' LOAN OF 1904."—(Column 5.) The Act of January 14 1875 authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to use any surplus revenues from time0 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 office of the Assistant Treasurer of the United States at New York, the outstanding legal-tender notes when presented in sums of not less than fifty dollars. Under this authorization, and for the purpose mentioned,there were Issued In Feb 1804, payable In 10 years. $50,000,000 of 5%s and in Nov. 1894 there were Issued $50,000,000 more for similar bonds for same purppse. The bonds matured Feb. 2 1904, and the amount outstanding Nov 1 ($43,750) Is included on that date in "debt on which Interest has ceased.' "PANAMA CANAL LOAN."—(Column 2.) The Act of June 28 1902, Section 8, supplemented by the Act of Dec. 21 1905 (for copy of the sections referred to, see "Chronicle" July 7 1906, page 12), authorizes the Issue of $130,000,000 of coupon or registered 2% bonds of the United States, or as much thereof as may be necessary, In denominations of $20 or some multiple of that sum,redeemable In gold coin at the pleasure of the United States after ten years from the date of Issue—$84 831,980 of said bonds have been issued, all of which are now outstanding. They bear date Aug. 1 1906 and Nov. 11908, but Interest began Nov. 1 1007 and Feb. 1 1909.

For further details see circular of Secretary Cortelyou In "Chronicle," Nov. 23 1907, page 1311— the certificates have all been retired. 10 I VoL. txxxix. UNITED STATES DEBT. In April 1895,we gave a table showing the debt of the United States on the first day of July 1856, and every subsequent year. It is not necessary to repeat all those figures. We have determined on this occasion to begin our statement with 1878, as that year antedates all of the issues now outstanding, and yet carries the record sufficiently far back to show the nature and extent of the Government securities when the refunding operations of that period began. It has the advantage, too of giving separate and distinct each issue of bonds now outstanding. The statement is subjoined.

Nov., 1909.; VERMONT-CITIES AND TOWNS POPULATION OF STATE. -United States Census: 235,981 1900 315,098 1820 343,641 1860 217,895 1890 314,120 1810 332,422 1850 154,465 1880 291,948 1800 332,286 1840 85,428 280,652 1790 1870 330,551 1830 DEBT LIMITATIONS -There appears to be nothing In the Constitution power of municipalities. providing for a general limit to the debt-making 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. The laws relating to municipal debt limitation which have been passed by the Legislature from time to time are contained in Sections 3556, 3557, 3558, 3574 and 3575, Chapter 157 of the Revised Statutes of 1906. Section 3556, embodying a law passed in 1904, prohibits a municipality, unless otherwise provided in its charter, from borrowing, except for refunding purposes, an amount in excess of five times Its grand list as last taken. An additional amount, not exceeding five times the grand list, may be borrowed, providing the loan is approved by a twothirds vote. The next section (3557) covering laws passed in 1904 and 1906,provides that in figuring the debt limit,loans created for water supply, sewer or electric lights and temporary loans may be eliminated. Tile two sections follow: -Limit. -No municipal corporation shall create an SECTION 3556. indebtedness, unless to refund outstanding bonds or orders,to an amount exceeding five times its grand list last taken; provided that it may, by a two-thirds vote by ballot of the voters present and voting at a meeting called for that purpose, Increase such indebtedness an additional amount not exceeding five times such grand list. Bonds or obligations given or created in excess of tile limit authorized by this section shall be void. SECTION 3557.-Deternanation.-In determining the amount of municipal indebtedness permitted by the preceding section, obligations created for a water supply, sewers or electric lights, and temporary loans created in anticipation of the collection of taxes and necessary for meeting current expenses, shall not be taken into account; provided, that no such temporary loan shall be extended beyond the fiscal year for which it s made, and shall not exceed in amount 90% of the amount of taxes levied for such year; nor shall the provisions of this and the preceding section apply when the charter of a municipal corporation limits its indebtedness. Section 3558 covers laws passed in 1872 and relates to railroad subscriptions by towns: SECTION 3558. 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. Such aid shall be given as provided in this chapter. The other sections referred to (Sections 3574 and 3575) embrace a law passed in 1892,and allow towns or villages, not already bonded to an amount exceeding five times the grand list, to borrow an amount not exceeding three times the grand list for highway improvement. Tile two sections read as follows: SECTION 3574. A town or incorporated village may issue bonds, to an amount not exceeding three times Its grand list, for the purpose of purchasing road-making apparatus and for building permanent highways within the limits of such town or village. SECTION 3575. Such town or incorporated village may vote to issue such bonds at a meeting of the corporation, duly warned for that purpose, by a two-thirds majority of all the votes cast, and may stipulate in such vote by whom and in what manner tile proceeds of such bonds shall be expended; but no town or incorporated village shall issue such bonds if It is already bonded to an amount exceeding live times its grand list. It will be noticed that tile preceding sections refer in each instance to 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 tills is done tile "grand list" is made up by taking 1 % of that amount according to Section 494, Chapter 30, of the Revised Statutes of 1906, which is as follows: "All real and personal estate shall, except as otherwise "provided, be set in the list at 1 % of its value in money on the first day "of April of the year of its appraisal." 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. The sections which grant these powers are Sections 3567 to 3573, Inclusive, Chapter 157 of the Revised Statutes of 1906. Section 3567 is as follows: SECTION 3567. A town which has outstanding and unpaid orders, notes, bonds or coupons lawfully issued, may issue other negotiable notes or bonds to pay or retire tile same. SECTIONS 3568 to 3573, inclusive, give the method of issuink such bonds. By Section 3572 municipal corporations other than towns have the same refunding powers granted them which are conferred upon towns. EXEMPTION FROM TAXATION -Subdivision XII. of Section 496 of the Public Statutes of 1906, as amended by Act 23 of tile Laws of 1908, provides that the following municipal securities shall be exempt from taxation: XII. Notes, bonds or orders issued after Feb. 1 1007 as evidences of obligations for money loaned to a town, village, incorporated school or fire district, at a rate of interest not exceeding 4% per annum, for the purpose of constructing, purchasing or repairing water, sewer or lighting systems, permanent highways, bridges, walks or public buildings, or for the purpose of refunding a debt contracted for any of tile foregoing purposes. SAVINGS BANKS INVESTMENTS-PRIVILEGES AND RESTRIC-The provisions of the law relating to savings banks are found in TIONS. Chapter 197 of the Vermont statutes of 1906, Sections 4615 to 4686, Inclusive. The first section having reference to investments, is Section 4648, which treats of real estate mortgages. Tills section authorizes the investment of 80% of the assets in such mortgages, one-sixth at least of which -that is, Vermont. A proviso adds "shall be upon real estate in this State" that only 60% of tile assets may be invested in mortgages on real estate outside of Vermont. If tile investment is on mortgage of unimproved or unproductive real estate, tile amount of such investment is limited to 40%. Sections 4650 and 4651 relate only to obtaining and paying for insurance. Section 4652 is as follows, and has reference to investment on personal security. SECTION 4652. No loans or investments on personal security shall be made except upon at least two approved names, not less than two of whom reside in this State or within fifty miles of the institution making such in. vestment, or upon notes or accepted drafts given by individuals, firms or corporations residing without the State for goods manufactured within the State, and payable to Individuals, firms or corporations located within the State; and such personal loans or Investments shall not be for a longer time than one year; and not more than one-third of tile assets of a savings bank, savings institution or trust company shall be invested in personal securities. Section 4653 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 4654) covers the most important of the provisions relating to investments that are contained in the law. We The separation into paragraphs and the give the section In full below figures in parentheses which number and begin the paragraphs are our own. the foregoing exceptions, the moneys deposited SECTION 4654.

In the public funds of any of tile States named in tills section. (7.) 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; (8.) 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 more 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 stook of any such banks, owned or loaned upon, to exceed In the aggregate onefourth 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 4655. 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 , tieposits, nor more than thirty thousand dollars; nor shall such loans on personal security exceed ten thousand dollars, until its deposits amount to one million dollars, after which the sums so loaned may be increased one per cent of the deposits in excess of the one million dollars; but this section shall not apply to United States bonds or municipal bonds, or notes with such bonds as collateral. We also give Section 4659 in full. It confers authority upon savings banks to make deposits on call in banks and trust companies In certain States and cities, and is as follows: SECTION 4659. The words "trust company" as used 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 in the cities of St. Paul, Minneapolis 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 company. Section 4660 enacts that savings banks may hold real estate acquired on foreclosure or otherwise taken to secure debt, but it must be sold within five years, unless certain prescribed steps are taken, when an extension may be granted by the Inspector of Finance for not exceeding three years additional. Section 4661 authorizes savings banks to demand and receive on loans 6% interest. CITIES. COUNTIES AND TOWNS IN THE STATE OF VERMONT. BARRE. James Mackay, Clerk. Tills city is in Washington County.

Statutes general and special have, however, been passed on this subject with respect 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 1. Cities and towns shall not Incur debts, except in the manner of voting and within the limitations as to amount and time of payment prescribed in this 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 defined in clause twelve of section five 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 fire district and all other debts excepted by general or special statutes shall be excluded. SECTION 3. A city shall not become indebted in an amount exceeding two and one-half per cent on the average of the assessors' valuations of the taxable property therein for the three preceding years, the valuation of each year being first reduced by the amount of all 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 or town which establishes, purchases 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, five 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.

Chapter 399 of the Acts of 1900 and amendments as follows: assessed on property, exclusive of the State tax, SECTION 1. The taxes 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 Boston $10 55, and in any other city *12, on every $1,000 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 of appropriation requiring a larger assessment than Is herein limited shall be void. SECTION 2. Chapter 178 of the Acts of the year 1885 and Chapter 281 of the Acts of the year 1887 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% of the assessed valuation, &c., &c. Boston consequently is now subject to Section 2, Chapter 312, Laws of 1885 (Sec. 3. Chapter 27, of the 1902 edition Revised Statutes), which places the debt limitation at 234% of the average assessors' valuations of the taxable property for the preceding three years. Reference to this section of the Revised Statutes will be found In our remarks under the State of Massachusetts. The foregoing limitation is of course exclusive of debts created for water supply, and further exceptions have been made from year to year by different Legislatures, authorizing bonds outside of the debt limit for various purposes, especially enumerated. It is proper to state that under Chapter 93, Acts of 1891, the city 18 authorized to anticipate its authority to borrow money within its debt limit for any current municipal year. -The following is a summary of loans NEW LOANS AUTHORIZED. authorized but not issued as of Nov 1 1909: Outside Inside Debt Limit.

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% 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 towns shall be paid and be fulfilled according to the tenor thereof, and of public all 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 thereof." SECTION 21. "No town shall, without special statutory authority therefor Incur any debt in excess of three per centum of the taxable property such town, including the indebtedness of such town on the tenth day of 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. -At the1908 session of the Legislature, the laws concerning Rhode Island savings bank investments were completely revised and materially altered in a respects. That portion of the new law concerning investments great many is contained In Chapter 1590, Laws of 1908. Sections 57, 58, 59, 60, 61 sections are given in full on pages 7 and 8 of the "State and 84.

Under the provisions of this Act, "the debt of the said county shall not be deemed to be or be included as a part of the debt of the City of Brooklyn, within the meaning of the provision of the Constitution of the State of New York limiting the power of cities to incur indebtedness." (See "Chronicle," Vol. 62, p. 49.)

In a report made in 1838 the financial officer of the State dences of indebtedness of municipal corporations; the provision covers not affirmed that New Jersey had put out no obligations of any kind or loaned only the bonds, &c., to be hereafter issued, but those as well that have credit to an company. The Constitution of 1844 forbade the creits been heretofore issued. It is a sweeping statute, and one which Is of deating of a State debt exceeding one hundred thousand dollars except for cided interest to the holders of the municipal securities of the State. The purposes of war, &c. This exception, under which it was allowable to exfull text of it may be found In the "State and City Supplement" for October ceed the hundred-thousand-dollar limit, became operative on the occasion 1898, page 58. of the breaking out of our Civil War. Quite a debt was created at that period. The last of these war bonds was retired on Jan. 11902. LIMITATION TO TAX RATE.—Under Chapter 116. Laws of 1906, TOTAL DEBT.—With the exception of $116,000 certificates Issued to an ultimate maximum tax rate Is provided for in all taxing districts In Commissioners of the Agricultural College under Act approved June the State of $17 50 for each $1,000 of assessed valuations for county, school the 13 1895, the State Is now clear from debt, and has been since Jan. 1 1902. district and local purposes. The Act provides that the tax rate for 1906 At previous dates the debt was: $660,400 must not exceed that levied in 1905 and must be reduced at least $1 00 per $71,000 Nov. 1 1895 Nov. 1 1901 735,400 194,000 Nov. 1 1894 Nov. 1 1898 1,996,300 $1,000 each year after 1906 if the rate is over $20 00 per $1,000 and 50 cents 394,000 Nov. 1 1880 Nov. 1 1897 3.396 200 yearly If under $20 00, until a rate of $17 50 be reached, which Is to be the 593,400 Nov. 1 1866 Nov. 1 1896 On Nov. 1 1909 the cash balance on hand in the State Fund was $3.680,- maximum rate thereafter. In the cases of counties the 1906 rate must 882 61; this fund also held on the same date 1,887 shares (par value $188 50-cent reduction yearly is provided for 700) of the stock of the United Railroad & Canal Companies of New Jersey, not exceed the 1905 rate and a the market value of which amounts to nearly $475,000.

Fund on Nov. 1 This limitation does not apply to the tax rate required to raise any State L UATION.—The assessed valuation for a series of years ASSESSED judgments, all of which may be In addihas been as below. Under new tax laws the assessment beginning with 1906 tax or State school tax or to pay higher basis than in former tion to the limited rate fixed In the Act. Besides this, a law passed In has been made at supposed full value—a much years. For this reason the valuations of New Jersey municipalities wherever 1908 (Chapter 274) provides that the limitation shall not apply to the tax reported for 1906 and 1907 show large increases over the figures for 1905.

(2) County and Municipal 1ndebtedness.-Under the laws of Pennsylvania the power to create county loans is in the Board of County Corn missioners, which consists in each county of three persons elected trl ennially under the minority system of voting, by which the minority party in each county usually has one member 01 the Board. In cities and boroughs the power to create indebtedness is vested in Cro.111oils. municipal debts being created by ordinance.

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 Society." and It stil exists bearing the same name. Originally the bank was not Incorporated, hut was a voluntary organization, such societies in Great Britain being at the time of a like character. Tile date of the organization was November 27 1816, and the bank was opened for business Dec. 2 1816. The oldest ledger of the company goes back to the time of opening, and shows a de posit on that day (December 2 1816) of five dollars. The company was not incorporated until February 25 1819. The second savings institution in the State, however, did not come into existence until 1847. In 1889 a general law facilitating the incorporation of savings banks was passed by the LeLtklature. Still, the report of the Banking Department of December 1908 shows that the total number of savings banks within the State was only thirteen, and of these, two or three, we are advised, were in process of liquidation. The aggregate deposits of these banks at that date was $158,542,702. There were 447,799 deposit accounts and the average deposit to each depositor was $354.04. The provisions of the special charters are all liberal as to investments. A law passed in 1885, and a supplement of the same passed in 1889, authorizin r 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, corporate rights 69 and franchises, under the provisions of this Act,shall thereafter be allowed the privileges of a bank of discount, nor be allowed to loan any money received on deposit, except upon first mortgage or lien upon real estate within this Commonwealth, upon the bonds or securities of the United States or of this State, or upon county, city, borough, township or school bonds of any county, city, borough, township or school district, or any other good and valid securities." Authority to loan on any "good and valid security" appears to confer shout as broad a discretion upon the managers as could be expressed in a statnte. In 1897 an Act was passed allowing savings institutions and savings banks chartered under Special Acts to invest in Pennsylvania county and municipal bonds, notwithstanding any provisions of their charters. The law follows: CHAPTER 77. LAWS OF 18J7. -From and after-the passage of this Act all provident institutions, savings institutions and savings banks, chartered under Special Acts of this Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, may notwithstanding any provisions of their charter, loan the moneys received by them on deposit upon the bonds of any county, city, borough, township or school district within this Commonwealth issued pursuant to the authority of any law of this Commonwealth for the payment of which the faith and credit of the municipality Issuing them are pledged. It was not until 1889 as already stated, tnat 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: (1) In the stocks or bonds or interest-bearing notes or the obligations of the United States. or those for which the faith of the United States is pledged to provide for the payment of the interest and the principal. (2) In the stocks or bonds of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania bearing Interest. (3) In the stocks or bonds of any State in the Union that has not within ten years previous to making such investments, by such corporation, defaulted in the payment of any part of either principal or interest of any debt authorized by any Legislature of such State to be contracted (4) In the stocks or bonds of any city, county, town or village of any State of the United States issued pursuant to the authority of any law of the State, or in any interest-bearing obligations issued by the city or county In which such bank shall be situated. (5) In bonds and mortgages on unincumbered, improved real estate situated in this State. It will be noted that, according to the foregoing(sub-division four), Pennsylvania savings banks are allowed to invest their deposits in the bonds and stocks of any city, county, town or village in any of the United States. Furthermore, by the fifth sub-division, bonds and mortgages are left to the discretion of the trustees in all purchases, except that they must be first mortgages on improved real estate in Pennsylvania. The next section (18) relates to the temporary deposit of funds in banks and trust companies. It makes it lawful to deposit temporarily in banks or trust companies the excess of current daily receipts over the payments until such time as the same can be judiciously invested in the securities named ,above CITIES.

I VOL. LXXXTX. -There are In this State general SAVINGS BANKS INVESTMENTS. banking laws under which savings banks may be organized, but a number of the savings Institutions have been Incorporated under special charter. 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 that 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 a special charter granted to the Germania Savings Bank of Baltimore In 1890, 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 secur"fly 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 Germania Savings 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.

In compliance with Section 6, Article 13 (cited above), which provides or the organization of cities, &c., by general law, the Legislature made an elaborate classification of municipal corporations, which was in existence for years. First they were divided into citles, villages and hamlets Then cities were divided into two classes, the first class being subdivided Into three grades and the second class being subdivided into four grades. the grade being determined by population according to the last Federal Census. In addition many special laws 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 handed -down several decisions declaring such laws special legislation and therefore unconstitutional. The decisions were considered to be of such broad ap • plication that the Governor called an extra session of the Legislature for the purpose of framing a new general municipal code. The extra session convened Aug. 25 1902 and after a session of nearly two months -a document too lengthy to quote in these passed a new "municipal code" -columns. We would refer our readers, therefore, to pages 994 and 995 of the "Chronicle," Nov. 1 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 Aet popularly known as the "Longworth Omnibus bill" was passed and subsequently upheld by the State Supreme Court. This Act (which was amended at the 1906 session) amends Sections 2835, 2836 and 2837, Revised Statutes of Ohio, relating to the issuance of bonds by cities, villages and other municipal corporations. Under the new law the municipal boards of legislation, councils, &c., may by two-thirds vote issue bonds for certain specified purposes to the extent of 1%of the assessed valuation yearly (but not exceeding 4% in the aggregate) without submitting the question to a vote of the people. Bonds issued under this Act in excess of 1% in any one year, or in excess of 4% 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 a net debt (bonds less sinking fund) of more than 8% In the Tile Act as amended In aggregate can not be authorized in any event 1906 will be found in the "Chronicle" May 26 1906, page 1224. -Some doubts having arisen as to whether old bonds as well as Note. "Longworth" bonds should be counted in figuring the 8% debt limit, a suit was brought and the State Supreme Court in May 1906 held that only such bonds as may have been issued subsequent to the enactment of the "Longworth" bill should be counted in considering the 8% limit provided for in that Act. V. 82, p.1114. Furthermore, in the amended law of 1906, it is expressly provided that the 8% limit shall apply only to the bonds sued subsequent to the enactment of this Act.

Lxxxix. In addition to the foregoing, general statutes have been passed by the Legislature granting general powers to cities and towns to issue bonds for legitimate corporate purposes, subject, however, to the Constitutional limit of 2% on valuation. But we have not the space to set out here the details, or the details of the other legislation applicable to cities of larger and smaller population, and covering specific purposes,such as water-works, &c. -In Nov. 1909 GRAVEL ROAD LAW OF 1903 UNCONSTITUTIONAL. the Indiana Supreme Court declared unconstitutional the amended highway Act of 1905 authorizing free gravel roads to be paid for by taxation on all the property in the township instead of assessments on the lands benefited. The decision was on the ground that the Act contains a provision making the law a local and special Act. See State and City Department of the "Chronicle" for Nov. 27 1909. EXEMPTION FROM TAXAT1ON.-The Legislature of 1903 passed a law (Chap. 179, Laws of 1903) exempting from taxation all bonds, notes. &c., hereafter issued by State or municipal corporations. The section follows: SECTION 1, Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Indiana, That all bonds, notes and other evidences of indebtedness hereafter issued by the State of Indiana or by municipal corporations within the State upon which the said State or the said municipal corporations pay interest shall be exempt from taxation. The above Act became effective April 23 1903.

FIRST, as to the State, Section 5 of Article 10 provides that no debt -For reports not found in alphabetical order among the following, see Note. deficits in revenue, to pay interest, to repel inva- "Additional Statements" at the end of this State. except to meet casual The sectiqn in full is subjoined. sion, &c.,can be contracted -No law shall authorize any debt CREATION OF DEBT FORBIDDEN. to be contracted on behalf of the State except in the following cases: To meet casual deficits in the revenue; to pay interest on State debt; to repel Invasion, suppress insurrection, or, if hostilities be threatened, provide for the public defense. In the sixth section of the same article the last clause prohibits the assumption by the State of the debts of any municipality or corporation. The clause referred to reads as follows: "Nor shall the General Assembly ever on behalf of the State assume the debts of any county, city, town or township, nor of any corporation whatever." SECOND, as to municipalities, the provision contained in the Constitution seems to be equally clear and emphatic, and, as will be found, fixeR the limit at 2% of the valuation. It is Article 13 of that instrument (an amendment to the 1851 Constitution adopted March 14 1881) which relates to this subject, and we give the article in full below. -No political or municipal corporation LIMITED-EXCESS VOID. in this State shall ever become indebteded in any manner or for any purpose to an amount in the aggregate exceeding 2% on the valuation of the taxable property within such corporation, to be ascertained by the last assessment for State and county taxes previous to the incurring of such Indebtedness; and all bonds or obligations in excess of such amount given by such corporation shall be void; Provided, That in time of war, foreign Invasion or other great public calamity, on petition of a majority of the property owners in number and value, within the limits of such corporation. the public authorities in their discretion may incur obligations necessary for the public protection and defense to such an amount as may be requested in such petition. It should be said in connection with the above that several laws have been enacted since the foregoing constitutional limit was adopted (March 14 1881). and bonds have been issued by counties thereunder beyond the 2% limit, for the construction of "free gravel, stone or other macadamized roads." Several such laws were passed at the 1899 session of the Legislature. But in the case of Strieb vs. Cox, Treas., 111 Ind., the Supreme Court of Indiana held that gravel road bonds are not properly indebtedness of the county-hence do not come within the inhibition of Section 13 of the Constitution. (See editorial In "State and City Supplement" for October 1899, page 3.) THEW), counties (but no other kind of municipality) are prohibited from subscribing for any stock in a corporation unless paid for at time of such subscription. The section which covers this subject is Section 6 Of Article 10,and is as follows: -No county shall subscribe for COUNTIES CANNOT TAKE STOCK. stock in any incorporated company unless the same be paid for at the time of such subscription; nor shall any county loan its credit to any incorporated company, nor borrow money for the purpose of taking stock in any such company; nor shall the General Assembly ever on behalf of the State assume the debts of any county, city, town or township, nor of any corporation whatever. The prohibition which this section contains applies, as already stated, only to counties. Consequently the Legislature was at liberty to authorze cities to subscribe to the stock of railroads, as it did by a general law passed in 1869, granting the power to subscribe to the stock of any railroad running into or through any city or near its corporate limits. Other laws of a somewhat similar character have been passed at other dates. We no, tice one law. too (Section 5377, Burns's Annotated Statutes, revision 1901) which authorizes counties bordering on the State line, or any township or city situated In such county, to subscribe for railroad stock. In that law no attempt is made to endow counties with power to issue bonds for this purpose (thus obeying the mandate of the Constitution), though by the succeeding section (Section 5378) cities are given authority to issue such bonds. COUNTIES are apparently restricted by statute to a lower than the Constitutional limit of 2% in the matter of creating certain kinds of debt. For instance, Section 7834 of Burns's Annotated Statutes, 1901, authorizes any county to issue bonds when necessary to construct, complete or repair court house, jail or other county buildings, or to fund existing debt; in those cases county commissioners may borrow for that purpose not exceeding 1% on assessed valuation and Issue bonds therefor, provided that no second or subsequent loan shall be made or authorized so long as any former loan made under the provisions of the Act shall remain unpaid. From Section 7920 It appears, moreover, that whenever the aggregate indebtedness, funded or otherwise, of any county having a voting population of over 20,000 amounts to or exceeds 1%, It is not lawful to increase such Indebtedness in any manner or form except only by temporary loans In anticipation of the revenue of the then current fiscal year and not exceeding two-thirds of the amount of the county tax duplicate of the preceding year. Limit of 1% may be exceeded in counties for funding purposes in certain cases where the aggregate indebtedness in 1879 exceeded 1% (see Burns's Revised Statutes, 1901,Section 7918); also for temporary loans (see Burns's Revised Statutes, 1901. Section 7920). Also (if the laws that have been passed are constitutional), the limit of 2% may be exceeded for the purpose of making gravel roads (see above), the Supreme Court having decided that gravel road bonds are not properly an indebtedness of the county. By statute the limit for such bonds (Section 8910) is 4%. ALLEN COUNTY. George W. Lindemuth, Auditor. County seat is Fort Wayne. When Due.

Under a law passed Feb. 25 1898 there will be a general assessment of 'real estate but once in every four years instead of annually; personal property will be listed every year. The law also provides that property shall be appraised at full value, but assessed at only one-fifth of such value. This law was changed, however, by an Act passed in 1909 which provides for the assessment of property at one-third of the actual value. The new basis of assessment went into effect in 1909, hence the general increase in values for that year for the different civil divisions of the State. POPULATION OP STATE. 4,821,550 1860 1900 1,711,05111830 157,445 1890 3,826,351 1850 851,47011820 55,211 1880 3,077,871 1840 476,18311810 12,282 1870 2.530,801 DEBT LIMITATION.—No State has developed a greater repugnance to the creating of debt than Illinois, if we may judge from the provisions of its present Constitution. We say developed, because this antagonism has apparently been progressive. Nothing of It is to be found in the Constitution 01 1818. The Constitution of 1848 contains no reference to municipalities, but has in it stringent restrictions limiting to $50,000 the power of She Legislature to create State debt, except in case of war, invasion, &c., unless the law proposing the issue of bonds is submitted to a vote of the people. But turning to the Constitution of 1870 we find the whole subject of debt-making most thoroughly considered and its basis settled. FIRST, as to the State, the provisions are not very unlike the provisions of the Constitution of 1848, except that as to the limit for casual deficits and failures of revenue, the aggregate which can be created is very properly raised to $250,000. But with that exception and with the further exception for the purpose of repelling invasion, &c., no debt can be contracted unless the law is submitted to a vote of the people at a general election, which law must contain a provision for the payment of interest as it accrues, and previous notice of the election be given by publication for three months prior to such election. These last two restrictions as to interest and notice on election are only found In the 1870 Constitution. The sections which cover these matters are as follows; we omit the first portion of Section 18 of Article IV. which relates only to appropriations and payment of appropriations out of funds belonging to the State: Provided, the State may,to meet casual SECTION 18. deficits or failures in revenues, contract debts never to exceed in the aggregate $250,000, and moneys thus borrowed shall be applied to the purpose for which they were obtained, or to pay the debt thus created, and to no other purpose; and no other debt except for the purpose of repelling invasion, suppressing insurrection or defending the State in war (for payment of which the faith of the State shall be pledged), shall be contracted, unless the law authorizing the same shall at a general election have been submitted to the people, and have received a majority of the votes cast for members of the General Assembly at such election. The General Assembly shall provide for the publication of said law for three months at least before the vote of the people shall be taken upon the same; and provision shall be made at the time for the payment of the interest annually as it shall accrue, by a tax levied for the purpose or from other sources of revenue; which law providing for the payment of such interest by such tax shall be irrepealable until such debt be paid; And provided further, that the law levying the tax shall be submitted to the people with the law authorizing the debt to be contracted. SECTION 20. The State shall never pay, assume or become responsible for the debts or liabilities of, or In any manner give, loan or extend its credit to or in aid of, any public or other corporation, association or individual. CANAL BONDS.—At the general election in November 1908 the people by a vote of 692,522 "for" to 195,177 "against" adopted an amendment to the State Constitution which provides for the Issuance of not exceeding $20,000,000 bonds, to construct a deep waterway or canal, and to erect, equip and maintain power plants, locks, bridges, dams and appliances suitable for the development and utilization of the water power. See V.85, p. 1289, and V. 87, p. 1372. SECOND, municipal indebtedness is regulated only in the Constitution of 1870. In that Instrument the subject is dealt with in all its phases. First Is a provision in Article 8, Section 3, forbidding the General Assembly and every municipality from making any appropriation In aid of any sectarian purpose. Second is a "separate section" forbidding any such municipality from becoming a subscriber to the stock of any railroad, &c., or to loan its credit. Third is the broad and general provision, Section 12, Article 0, which limits the indebtedness of all municipalities to 5% "on the value of the taxable property therein," &c. We give these sections below: ARTICLE 8, Section 3. Neither the General Assembly nor any county city, town, township, school district or other public corporation shall ever make any appropriation, or pay from any public fund whatever, anything in aid of any church or sectarian purpose, or to help support or sustain any school, academy, seminary, college, university or other literary or scientific institution controlled by any church or sectarian denomination whatever; nor shall any grant or donation of land, money or other personal property ever be made by the State or any such public corporation to any church or for any sectarian purpose. ARTICLE 0, Section 12. No county, city, township, school districc or other municipal corporation shall be allowed to become indebted in any manner or for any purpose to an amount, including existing indebtedness la the aggregate exceeding 5% on the value of the taxable property therein, to be ascertained by the last assessment for State and county taxes, previous to the incurring of such indebtedness. Any county, city, school district or other municipal corporation incurring any indebtedness as aforesaid shall, before or at the time of doing so, provide for the collection of a direct annual tax sufficient to pay the interest on such debt as it falls due, and also to pay and discharge the principal thereof within twenty years from the time of contracting the same. This section shall not be construed to prevent any county, city, township, school district or other municipal corporation from issuing their bonds in compliance with any vote of the people which may have been had prior to the adoption of this Constitution in pursuance of any law providing therefor. SEPARATE Sections. [Municipal subscriptions to railroads, &c.1 No county, city, town, township or other municipality shall ever become subscriber to the capital stock of any railroad or private corporation, or make donation to or loan its credit in aid of such corporation; provided however. that the adoption of this Article shall not be construed as affecting the right of any such municipality to make such subscriptions where the same have been authorized, under existing laws, by a vote of the people of such municipalities prior to such adoption. The foregoing limitation to 5% is general, as will be seen—that is, it ap. plies to all municipalities. With this limitation preserved the Legislature has passed general laws authorizing the City Council in cities and the board of trustees in villages to issue bonds for corporate purposes,for refunding and consolidating debt, for water works, &c.; and the county board of any county has been authorized by general statute to Issue, when it deems it necessary, county bonds, after submitting the matter to the legal voters of the county at a general election at which a majority vote is required as a prerequisite of the issue. An attempt was made to limit "any county, city, township, school district or municipal corporation" in counties containing 125,000 or more inhabitants to 23i% of the assessed value, but Jan 12 1900 the State Supreme Court ruled that this was an arbitrary and unnatural classification of municipalities which could not be sustained. See Vol. 70, p. 242. The matter of the amount of bonds that might be issued on the basis of the debt limitations given has been complicated in late years by changes in the method of assessing property. A letter of the State Auditor in V. 74 p. 741, throws some light on these changes. I VOL. Lxxxnc. BUSSE BOND BILLS.—The Legislature of 1900 passed a series of bills, known as the Busse Bond Bills, which enlarge the leeway for the creation of debt by the various municipalities in the State by fixing the assessed value of property at one-third of the actual value instead of one-fifth, as before. With the exception of counties a proportional decrease is made in the maximum rate of taxation. JONES REFERENDUM BILL.—At the 1909 session the Legislatire also passed the Jones Referendum Bill, which provides that all bond issues, excepting those for refunding puropses, must be submitted to a vote and ratified by a majority of those voting on the proposition. WATER CERTIFICATES IN EXCESS OF DEBT LIMIT.—A law was passed In 1899 allowing cities bonded to their legal limit to issue (for the improvement of water-works) certificates against the earnings of the Water Department without regard to the bonded indebtedness. Several munter panties are understood to have taken advantage of this law. In the case of the City of Joliet, however, which attempted to issue bonds under the law, the matter was taken into the courts in a test suit, and an injunction granted by Judge Dibell, who held that the 5% limit could not be exceeded. V. 73, p. 04. This decision was confirmed by Supreme Court. V.74, p. 401. IMPROVEMENT BONDS.—There Is a kind of improvement bond authorized in some cases which is made a special lien on the land benefited and to which the 5% limit has no reference. We refer to cases which come under the law entitled "To divide cities and villages subject to overflow Into improvement districts." This statute provides that any such city or village or part thereof may be laid off into an improvement district for the purpose of draining, raising the grade of the streets and improving the district; that after the cost for the work has been ascertained and been assessed the assessment may be paid in instalments or otherwise, and such city or village may Issue bonds sufficient to pay the assessment. In that case the bonds are a lien on the lots, blocks or parts thereof which shall be designated therein; but before the issue the owner of the lots, &c., to be charged must endorse upon the back of such bond his consent, under seal, in substance, as follows: "I hereby indorse the within bond and consent that the lot or lots or parts thereof therein designated shall become liable for the interest and principal therein named, and the same shall be a lien upon said property from this date until paid off and discharged." The bond when executed by the city or village and so endorsed by the owner shall be recorded in the Recorder's office in the county, and such record shall be a notice of the lien created to the same extent as the record of mortgagee Is a notice. We have room to give only this very brief and imperfect outline of this statute. The whole law will be found in the Hurd's Revised Statutes of Illinois. the 1001 edition, pages 337 and 338.

CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT.—A new section to Article 4 (Section 34) of the State Constitution proposed by the 1903 Legislature, was ratified by the voters of the State at the general election Nov. 8 1904. This amendment permits the Legislature to form a new charter for the local government of the city of Chicago; authorizes the consolidation in the municipal government of the powers now vested in the city, Board of Education, township, park and other local governments (V. 76, p. 989). In event of such consolidation the indebtedness of the city, including the existing debt, the debt of all municipal corporations lying wholly in the city, and also the city's proportion of the debt of the county and sanitary district, may be limited to 5% of the full value of the taxable property. Legislation enacted under this amendment must be submitted to the voters of the city of Chicago for approval. The question of a new city charter was defeated by the voters on Sept. 17 1907. See V. 85, p. 745.

HISTORY OF DEBT. -The historical details of Michigan's State debt up to 1894 will be found in the "State and City Supplement" of April 1894, page 98. In 1864 the State Treasurer reported the funded debt at $3,880 399 and $1,450,472 additional "trust fund debt." The State has no bonded debt at present. The "trust fund debt" on June 30 1909 amounted to $6,846,199.09. The term "trust fund debt" Is, however, a misnomer. In explanation it should be said that the United States Government set aside certain lands in the State of Michigan for educational purposes, and under the Michigan statutes the money received from the sale of these lands is used to pay the general expenses of the State; the law provides, however, that a certain specified rate of interest must be annually figured on the total amount accumulated from said sales and be paid over to the educational institutions specified. The amount of interest to be so paid Is raised by taxation. EQUALIZED V A LUATION.-Since 1856 the equalized valuation has been determined only once in five years. The following shows the equalized valuation and tax rate for State purposes for every tenth year since 1846 and every fifth year since 1896. The State tax rate for 1907 was 2.81 mills for 1908 2.41 mills and for 1909 3.42 mills on each dollar of valuation as equalized by the State Board of Equalization. Year. Equalized Val Tax Rate Year.

SECTION 7. State may borrow money, when. The Legislature may also borrow money to repel invasion, suppress insurrection or defend the State in time of war; but the money thus raised shall be applied exclusively to the object for which the loan was authorized, or to the repayment of the debt thereby created. SECTION 9. Evidences of debt. No scrip, certificate or other evidence of State debt whatsoever shall be issued, except for such debts as are authorized by the sixth and seventh sections of this article. SECTION 10. Internal improvements--avails of grants. The State shall never contract any debt for works of internal improvement, or be a party In carrying on such works; but whenever grants of land or other property shall have been made to the State, especially dedicated by the grant to particular works of internal improvement, the State may carry on such particular works, and shall devote thereto the avails of such grants, and may pledge or appropriate the revenues derived from such works In aid of their completion. (2) CITIES, counties, towns. villages, etc., were unrestricted except by legislative enactment until 1874. Since that amendment was adopted 5% on the value of the taxable property has been the extreme amount of debt permissible for any municipality. Not only is that the case, but, as will be seen,the municipality is required before, or at the time when it incurs any indebtedness, to make provision for an annual tax sufficient to pay the interest and also sufficient to pay the principal within twenty years from the time of contracting the debt. We give below the amendment referred to In full. Limitation of Municipal Indebtedness.—Adding to Section 3, Article 11, the words: "No county.city,town,village, school district or other municipal corporation shall be allowed to become indebted In any manner or for any purpose, to any amount, including existing indebtedness in the aggregate exceeding 5% on the value of the taxable property therein, to be ascertained by the last assessment for State and county taxes previous to the incurring of such Indebtedness. Any county, city, town, village, school district or other municipal corporation incurring any Indebtedness as aforesaid, shall before or at the time of doing so provide for the collection of a direct annual tax sufficient to pay the interest on such debt as it falls due, and also to pay and discharge the principal thereof within twenty years from the time of contracting the same." The Legislature from time to time has passed laws providing for the issuance of bonds tor various specified purposes, but these laws are too numerous to be given here. Such authority is of course subject to the foregoing provisions of the Constitution.

The bonded debt of the State, created for war purposes in 1861-63, has all been paid or else converted into certificates of indebtedness, which are held by the various trust funds. The amounts due the several funds May 1909 were as follows: Certificates of indebtedness, School Fund $1,563,700 Normal School Fund 515,700 University Fund 111,000 Agricultural College Fund 60,600 64 Total $2,251,000 ASSESSED VAL U ATION.—The total assessed valuation of the State as determined by the State Board of Assessment, and the tax ratefor State purposes. have been as follows for the years named below: PersonalTotal State Tax Taxes Year.

DEBT LIMITATION.—The constitutional provisions of Wisconsin restricting debt-making are very rigorous, plain and comprehensive. Since the amendment adopted in 1874, debts of cities, &c., as well as the State, are definitely limited by that Instrument. We give the provisions first which relate to the State and after that those which have reference to cities, &o. (1) STATE Indebtedness is confined within very close bounds. It seems as If the framers of the Constitution must have taxed to the extreme their Ingenuity for forms in which to express their determination to inhibit debtmaking. The sections which cover the subject are Sections 3, 4, 6, 7, 9 and 10 of Article 8. We give them In full below. SECTION 3. Credit of State, for what not given. The credit of the State shall never be given or loaned in aid of any individual, association or corporation. SECTION 4. Contracting debts. The State shall never contract any public debt, except in the cases and manner herein provided. SECTION 6. Limitation on public debt. For the purpose of defraying extraordinary expenditures, the State may contract public debts (but such debts shall never in the aggregate exceed $100,000). Every such debt shall CITIES, COUNTIES AND TOWNS IN THE STATE OF WISCONSIN. For reports not given in alphabetical order among the following. see "Additional Statements- at end of this State. ANTIGO.

That instrument fixes the limit at $250,000 "for the purpose of defraying extraordinary expenditures": and an amendment, ratified In 1879, extended this power to $250,000 additional "for erecting and completing buildings for the insane, a deaf, dumb and blind asylum, and State prison." Besides the foregoing, It 1, also provided that 1 the State credit shall not be loaned, &e. With regard to the debt of municipalities there is but one section in tile Constitution which relates to that subject, and that has reference to making railroad debt. FIRST, as to State indebtedness, the sections which treat of the subject are In article 9, sections 5, 6, 7, 8 and 14. SECTION 5. (Public Debt May Be Contracted.) For the purpose of defraying extraordinary expenditures, the State may contract public debts, but such debts shall never. In the aggregate, exceed two hundred and fifty thousand dollars; every such debt shall be authorized by law for sonic single object, to be distinctly specified therein; and no such law shall take effect until it shall have been passed by the vote of two-thirds of the members of each branch of the Legislature, to be recorded by the yeas and nays on the journals of each House, respectively: and every such law shall levy a tax annually sufficient to pay the annual interest on such debt, and aisI sufficient to pay the principal of such debt within ten years fr m thea tax 11 al passage of such law, and shall specially appropriate the proceeds . I such taxes to the payment of such principal and interest: and such ppropriation and taxes shall not be repealed, postponed ,or diminished, until the principal and interest of such debt shall have been wholly paid. The State shall never contract any debts for works of Internal ImproveMe .ts, or be a party in carrying on such works, except In cases where grants of land or other property shall have been made to the State, especially dedicated by the grant to specific purposes, and in such cases the State shall devote thereto the avails of such grants, and may pledge or appropriate the revenues derived from such works In aid of their completion. -(Bonds for Public Debt.)-All debts authorized by SECTION 6. the preceding section shall be contracted by loan on State bonds of amounts not less than five hundred dollars each on interest, payable within ten years after the final passage of the law authorizing such debt: and such bonds shall not be sold by the State under par. A correct registry of all such bonds shall be kept by tile Treasurer, In numerical order,so as always to exhibit the number and amount unpaid,and to whom severally made payable. 115 SECTION7.-The State shall never contract any public debt, unless in time of war, to repel invasion or suppress insurrection, except in the cases and in the manner provided in the fifth and sixth sections of this article. SECTION 8. -(Application of Loans.) -The money arising from any loan made, or debt or liability contracted, shall be applied to the object specified in the Act authorizing such debt or liability, or to the repayment of such debt or liability, and to no other purpose whatever. SECTION 14. -(Public Debt for State Buildings.) -For the purpose of erecting and completing buildings for a hospital for the insane, a deaf, dumb and blind asylum, and State prison. the Legislature may,by law, Increase the public debt of the State, to an amount not exceeding two hundred and fifty thousand dollars, in addition to the public debt already heretofore authorized by the Constitution, and for that purpose may provide by law for issuing and negotiating the bonds of the State,and appropriate the money only for the purpose aforesaid, which bonds shall be payable In not less than ten nor more than thirty years from the date of the same, at the option of the State. SECOND, as to city, county or other municipality, the only restriction on the debt making power in the Constitution is the following, found In article 9, section 15: SECTION 15.-(Municipal Debts in Aid of Railroads.) The Legislature shall not authorize any county, township, city or other municipal corporation to issue bonds, or to become indebted in any manner,to aid in the construction or equipment of any or all railroads to an amount that shall exceed five per centum of the value of the taxable property within such county, township, city, or other municipal corporation: the amount of such taxable property to be ascertained and determined by the last assessment of said property made,for the purpose of State and county taxation, previous to the incurring of such indebtedness The foregoing was adopted as an amendment in 1879. Before its adoption the section read so as to authorize municipal corporations to issue bonds In aid of railroads to- ten per cent of valuation. Hence the amendment consisted In simply changing the word len and making it five. This is all the Constitution contains with reference to the debts of municipalities. The Legislatute, however, has made some general provisions governing bond issues which we have not the apace to give here. CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS. -Four amendments to the State Constitution were adopted at the November 1902 election. Two of thtse relate to taxation, a third to school fund loans and the fourth to a State road and bridge fund. In 1906 three further amendments were adopted. one of which greatly enlarges the powers of the Legislature with reference to taxation. This amendment was again submitted to the voters at the election on Nov. 3 1908, but failed to carry. V. 87, p. 1372. This was done, owing to the fact that some parties In the State claimed It did not carry in 1906. This case was taken to the State Supreme Court for argument In Dec. 1908 and on Jan. 7 1900 the Court handed down a decision to the effect that the amendment was adopted at the 1906 election and therefore was operative. V. 88, p. 243. The other two amendments of 1006 relate to State roads and to the sale of farm and garden products without a license. At the November 1907 election a further amendment was adopted to Section 16 of Article 9, relating to an annual tax levy for the construction of roads and bridges. V. 85, p. 1289. This was also resubmitted at the November 1908 election, and was rejected; V.87. p. 1372. Five amendments to the Constitution will be presented to the voters in November 1910. V. 89, p. 1022. -The Legislature of 1907 enacted a law, MORTGAGE TAX LAW. which became effective April 30 1907, imposing a tax 01 50 cents upon each hundred dollars of the principal debt, secured by any mortgage or real property located within the State, recorded or registered on or after April 30 1907. The full text of this law will be found on page 1194 of the "Chronicle" of May 18 1907. SAVINGS BANK INVESTMENTS. -The Legislature in 1903 enacted a law-Chapter 108-amending the Act relating to the investments of sit% Inge banks. This Act will be found in full on page 877 of the "Chronicle" April 18 1903.

The new commissioner will have power and authorlty to exercise general supervision over the administration of all assessment and tax laws, over all county, town and city tax assessors and boards of equalization, levy and assessment, to tile end that taxation of all property, real, personal and mixed, shall be made relatively just and uniform, and at its true and full cash market value.

Heretofore property in the State is understood to have been assessed at 33 1-3% of its actual value. V. 88, p. 956. EXEMPTION FROM TAXATION. -The Legislature of 1005 passed an Act exempting municipal bonds from taxation provided certain conditions are complied with. The Act follows: CHAPTER 17, LAWS OF 1905. -Be It Enacted, Etc.: "That coupon or registered Interest-bearing bonds of the State of Wyoming, or any county, school district or municipality of the State of Wyoming, shall be exempt from taxation when owned by actual residents of tile State, provided that the owner or owners of such securities shall list the same annually on their assessment schedule, describing such bonds and the amount thereof, and shall mark opposite thereto on such schedule 'exempt.'" DEBT LIMITATION. -In Wyoming the provisions of the Constitution with respect to debt contraction and limitation are quite voluminous. They arc all found in Article 16 of that Instrument, and prohibit the State from creating any indebtedness exceeding 1 % of the assessed valuation except to suppress insurrection or to provide for the public defense. Counties, cities, towns or villages, or any subdivision thereof, arc limited to 2% on the assessed valuation. An additional indebtedness of not exceeding 4% Is permitted in the cases of cities, towns or villages for the purpose of building sewers therein.

MUNICIPAL AND COUNTY INDEBTEDNESS —A new Constitution went into effect in April 1902. One of Its provisions fixes a limit of indebtedness in the cases of cities and towns of 18% of the assessed value of real estate, unless the issue be authorized by a majority of the qualified voters. V. 74, p. 741. Under a law passed in 1908 (Chapter 70) the right is given to any magisterial district located in counties of this State to Issue bonds at not exceeding 6% interest for roads and bridges up to 10% of the assessed value of the taxable property contained therein, provided they are authorized by a majority vote. A tax levy must be made each year to meet the Interest and provide a sinking fund to extinguish the debt in thirty-four years. STATE DEBT.—For a detailed report of the Virginia debt as it stood prior to 1892, and for the history of the debt settlement made by and between the Virginia Debt Commission and the Bondholders' Committee, see the "State and ',City Supplement" of April, 1893, pages 151 and ,152. In January 1903 an adjustment was effected of the claims of the State against the National Government on account of the War of 1812 and of the counter claims for interest and principal on bonds against the State by the National Govenment. See V. 76, p• 119. On Sept. 1 1909 Virginia's debt stood as shown below: Century Bonds, Act of 1892. When Due. LOANS— Riddleberger Bonds, Act of 1882. 3s J-J $16,663,367.20__July 1 1091 35 J-J $5,853,954.16__July 1 1932 (Subject to call after 1900.) The Literary Fund on Sept. 1 1909 held $223,500 Century bonds and $1,579,927.28 of Riddiebergers; tote , $1,803,427.28. These, being held alive in the Fund, form part of the outstanding amounts in the table. Of the $16,665,367.20 Century bonds, $5,290,000 are coupon, $11,373,800 registered and $1,567.20 fractional certificates; of the $5,853,954.16 Illidiebergers, $1,628,500 are coupon, $4,224,300are registered and $1,154.16 are fractional certificates. The interest on tile Century bonds was 2% for the first 10 years (or until July 1 1901), and 3% thereafter. Both Issues are exempt from taxation.

It consists entirely of amounts owing the educational institutions, and is evidenced by certificates of indebtedness issued under Chapter 344, Laws of 1892. These certificates are redeemable at pleasure of the State and are non-transferable. The Virginia Legislature re-enacted the Funding Act of Feb. 20 1892, and under its provisions all old Virginia bonds were allowed to be brought In and funded Into new Century bonds, upon the same terms as the Olcott settlement, provided they were presented for funding prior to Dec. 311896. By the Act of Jan. 25 1898, however, bondholders were given until July 1 1898 to come in and accept the terms, and the time has been repeatedly extended since then, the latest extension having been until December 31 1909. Bonds funded under any amendment or extension to the Act FLORIDA—State,Cities, dcc ALABAMA—State,Cities, &c_ MISSISSIPPI—State, Cities, &c LOUISIANA—State, Cities, &c ARKANSAS—State,Cities, &c TEXAS—State,Cities, &c Pages 173 to 174 Pages 174 to 176 Pages 176 to 178 Pages 178 to 179 Page 180 Pages 180 to 185 of February 20 1892 carry interest from the semi-annual period next preceding use date of funding. Under use old law coupon bonds once converted into registered certificates were not re-convertible Into coupon bonds, but under the Acts of 1882 and 1892 coupon and registered bonds are interchangeable. WEST VIRGINIA CERTWICATES.—In the settlement of 1871 It was assumed that West Virginia should provide for one-third the principal and interest of the then existing debt, that is, $15,239,370 out of tile total debt of $45,718,112. To represent, therefore, West Virginia's share of bonds funded, "deferred certificates" were Issued. West Virginia, however, has refused to recognize these certificates, and a movement begun in August 1898 to compel recognition continues actively in progress. The plan provides for ascertaining.the exact amount of the old Virginia debt with which West Va. Is justly chargeable (subject to certain limitations), and then compromising that amount at the same percentage at which Virginia compromised the two-thirds of the original Virginia debt, namely, 60% for principal and 30U % for interest. (See editorial in "State & City Supplement" for Apr. 1899). The Legislature of Virginia in Mch. 1900 passed a bill authorizing the State Debt Commission to take such action and institute such proceedings as may be deemed proper to protect the State's interests and to bring about a settlement with West Virglina. (V.70, p. 494.) The original plan has been somewhat amended to meet present requirements; see digest in V. 76, p. 770. V. 79. p. 2759. In December 1905 the State Debt Commission decided to bring suit against the State of West Virginia, and a bill was accordingly filed in the United States Supreme Court early In 1006. See V. 81, p. 1623; V. 82, p. 584. On May 27 1907 Chief Justice Fuller of the United States Supreme Court handed down the decision of theCourt overruling tile demurrer Interposed by tile State of West Virginia to the suit. See V. 84, p. 641 and 1382; also editorial on page 1330. On May 6 1908 Chief Justice Fuller of the United States Supreme Court made public the terms of the decree of that tribunal ordering the taking of testimony by a special master. V. 86, p. 1176. This case came up on May '4 1009 before the Special Master appointed In June 1908, but the hearing has been postponed from time to time, having been deferred until Nov. 22 1909, V. 89. p. 868. Application was made June 3 1900 and granted by the Governing Committee June 13 1900 to list Brown Bros. & Co.'s Virginia deferred certificates (representing the originals of the 1871 issue only) on the New York Stock Exchange. The amount listed up to Nov. 20 1909 was $11,116,565. After about three-fourths of the old Virginia bonds had been surrendered. and "deferred certificates" been given to represent West Virginia's one third, under the Acts of 1871 and 1879, these Acts were repealed. Tile remaining bonds were refunded under other laws. These laws required a certificate to represent one-third the principal of tile old bonds brought In for funding, but gave "non-Interest-bearing certificates" to represent onethird the interest on old bonds. There is something less than $475,000 of bonds and Interest yet outstanding which is fundable under the current law of 1892. The following shows the amount of each refunding issue. —Interest.— LOANS— Outstanding. When Due. P. Ct. P'g'ble. ?Tame and Purpose.

Section 50. No Act of the General Assembly shall authorize any debt to be contracted on behalf of tile Commonwealth except for the purposes mentioned in Section 49 unless provision be made therein to levy and collect an annual tax sufficient to pay the interest stipulated, and to discharge the debt within thirty years; nor shall such Act take effect until it shall have been submitted to the people at a general election and shall have received a majority of all the votes cast for and against it: Provided, The General Assembly may contract debts by borrowing money to pay any part of the debt of the State without suomisslon to the people ana without making provision in the Act authorizing the same for a tax to discharge the debt so contracted or the interest thereon. Cities, Towns, Etc.-Cities, towns, counties, taxing districts and other municipalities are limited by Sections 157 and 158 of the Constitution Section 157 provides that no debt of any kind may be created to an amount exceeding in any year tile income and revenue provided for such year unless authorized by a two-thirds vote of those voting at an election held for the purpose.

State of North Carolina. Nov., 1909.1 NORTH CAROLINA-CITIES AND TOWNS. STATE DEBT -The old debt, excepting such as is not recognized, has mostly been funded under the funding laws of 1879, the time prescribed for the exchange having been extended to January 1 1010. These laws provided for the Issue of (1) consolidated 4% bonds due in 1910 to fund old antewar bonds at 40% of face value, "new" railroad bonds recognized as valid at 25% and bonds of 1866 and 1868 at 15%, nothing being given for overdue coupons; and (2) for new consolidated 6% bonds due in 1919, for which the North Carolina RR. construction bonds were made exchangeable at par, holders of construction bonds abating $240 of overdue interest on each $1,000 bond. The new bonds. both 4s and Gs, carry tax-receivable coupons and are exempt from "all State county or corporate taxation or assessment, direct or indirect, general or special." The 4s of 1903 are also exempt from taxation. In compliance with a decision of the United States Supreme Court handed down Feb. 1 1004, North Carolina on April 1 1905 paid to the State of South Dakota $27,400, representing the judgment obtained by the latter State on $10,000 bonds (donated to the State of South Dakota for the express purpose of bringing suit, an individual not being able to sue a State) issued by North Carolina and secured by 100 shares of stock of the North Carolina RR. Co and the holders of which had refused to accept the provisions of the funding law of 1879. See V.78. p. 594; V.70, p. 1728; V.80 p. 1382; and also editorials on the subject, V. 78, p. 1248; V. 80, p. 1332. The State also settled with the remaining holders of this particular class of unfunded bonds, Issuing the $250,000 bonds of 1905 mentloned below to provide means of payment. A committee of bondholders has been endeavoring to enforce payment of the special tax bonds of this State. V. 85, p. 1100. A committee of bondholders also offered to donate to the State of New York a large amount of these bonds for the purpose of bringing sult, but the offer was declined. V. 88, p. 121. An amendment to the State Constitution passed by the Legislature In 1879 and ratified by popular vote in 1880 forbids the General Assembly to pay or recognize as valid the following bonds: Special tax bonds, $11,365,000; bonds to Chathain RR., 1868, $1,030,000, and to Williamston & Tarboro RR., $150,000; penitentiary bonds of 1868, $44,000, "unless the proposing to pay the same shall have first been submitted to the people and by them ratified by the vote of a majority of all the qualified voters of the State at a regular election held for the purpose."

Two-thirds vote necessary to authorize. COUNTIES, CITIES, &c -The constitutional limitations as to the Indebtedness of counties, municipalities &c., are covered by Section 7 of Article VIII. and Section 5 of Article X of the State Constitution of 1893. These provide that the bonded debt of any county, township, school district, municipal corporation or political division or sub-division of the State shall never exceed 8% of the assessed value of all the taxable property therein; and no such debt can be created in any city or town without submitting the question to the qualified electors. It is also provided that a sinking fund should be established to redeem bonds at maturity. Under an amendment authorized by vote in 1900 and ratified by the Assembly In 1901, the 8% limit does not apply to the bonded debt Incurred by the cities of Columbia, Rock Hill, Charleston and Florence. where the proceeds of said bonds are applied solely for the purchase, establishment. maintenance or Increase of water-works plant and sewerage system; nor does the limit apply to the City of Georgetown and Greenville, where the proceeds of the sale of bonds are applied solely to the purchase, establishment, maintenance or increase of water-works plant, sewerage system, or gas and electric-light plants. By a vote in 1906, ratified by the Legislature In 1907. the city of Bennettsville may also increase its Indebtedness beyond the 8% limit, where the proceeds are applied solely to the purchase, establishment and maintenance of a water-works-plant, or sewerage system, provided the question of incurring such indebtedness is submitted to the voters of said municipality. At the cleat Nov. 3 1908 a somewhat similar privilege was granted the town of Gaffney. V. 87, p. 1372. A provision is made in Section 5 of Article X that, "wherever there shall be several political divisions, or municipal corporations covering or extending over the territory or portions thereof, possessing a power to levy a tax or contract a debt, then each of such political divisions or municipal corporations shall so exercise its power to increase its debt under the foregoing 8% limitation that the aggregate debt over and upon any territory of this State shall never exceed 15% of the value of all taxable property In such territory as valued for taxation by the State.

Part of these were subsequently recovered, but $308,500 consols so Issued ($303,500 being consols of 1874 and $5,000 Constitutional bonds) are still outstanding. The State considers them "null and void," and they are therefore not included in the amount outstanding above. There are also $421,035 (estimated) fraudulently issued baby bonds outstanding. There are, moreover, old bonds not recofgnized, and hence not fundable, amounting to $3,953,000. These include New Orleans Mobile & Texas 8% bonds, endorsed, $875,000;8% State bonds issued to said road, $2,500,000; 8% bonds issued to the N. 0. Mobile & Chattanooga RR.. $70,000; 7.30% bonds issued to the Mississippi & Mexican Gulf Ship Canal Co., $260,000,&c, The baby bonds in the table above were due in 1886. They were issued to fund certain obligations of charitable institutions, and only the unpaid taxes due the State prior to 1879 were pledged for their payment. A portion of this revenue, however, was diverted and an Act was passed in 1894 providing that in the discretion of the Board of Liquidation any surplus to the credit of the general fund might be used in retiring these bonds at not more than 50 cents on the dollar of their face value, including any and all overdue interest. See "Chronicle," V. 68, p. 987. There has been no litigation on the matter since the Act of 1894, under which holders of $364,295 bonds have disposed of same to the State at an average price of 41.25 cents on the dollar.

Two of the eleven amendments relate to the issuance of $8,000,000 sewer and $200,000 school teachers' salary bonds by the city of New Orleans. See V. 83, p. 1306. On Nov.3 1008 ten amendments to the Constitution were adopted. Important among them was the one authorizing the city of New Orleans to issue the $2,000,000 5% tax-exempt Public Belt Railroad bonds (V. 87, p. 415) and the one authorizing $3,500,000 5% Port of New Orleans bonds. Another amendment alters the provisions now set forth in an Act passed in 1906. which authorized New Orleans to issue the $8,000,000 4% public-improvement bonds mentioned in V. 83, p. 1306, so as to allow the purchaser of these bonds, when issued, a commission or deduction not to exceed 6%. One other amendment, which is to Article 281 of the Constitution, prescribes the manner in which municipal corporations, parishes and drainage districts may issue bonds. Still another amendment provides for the exemption from taxation, under prescribed conditions, of loans made upon mortgages of real estate and the notes evidencing such loans and loans made by life Insurance companies.

New Orleans is co-extensive with the parish of Orleans. It was incorporated July 11852. An amendment to the Louisiana Constitution authorizing the city to refund its debt at a lower rate of interest was adopted In 1892, and the city has issued 4% 50-year bonds to the amount of $10,000,000, thus enabling It to pay all its maturing loans and all those upon which It had option. The amendment provides that the interest tax collected in excess of requirements shall be divided between city schools and city Improvements. The new Louisiana Constitution, in effect May 12 1898. confirmed these arrangements. On June 6 1899 the city voted a special tax of 2 mills for water, sewer and drainage purposes, Intended to provide for an Issue of from 12 to 18 million bonds. As this required an amendment to the State Constitution, the Legislature, in special session, passed a bill for Its submission to a vote of the people of the State. At this election the amendment was approved and $12,000,000 of the bonds were awarded in Dec. 1900 (V. 71, p. 1283), to be issued from time to time as the Improvement progressed. The whole amount is out. In Mch. 1903 the vallidty of this Act was tested in the Civil District Court and affirmed. V. 76, p. 770. The case was taken to the State Supreme Court and the validity of the Act was again upheld. V. 76, p. 989. At the Nov. 1906 election two amendments to the State Constitution in relation to the City of New Orleans were ratified by the voters; one of these authorized the city to issue $8,000,000 sewer bonds and the other $200,000 teachers' salary bonds. V. 83, p. 1306, and V. 87, p. 1110, 1434 and 1556. $1,000,000 of the sewer bonds were sold on May 21 1909 (V. 88, p. 1388), and the teachers' salary bonds were disposed of on July 13 1909.

Galveston, the leading seaport of Texas, is the county seat of Galveston County, and was incorporated In March 1839. The county of Galveston has completed the work of constructing a seawall, costing about a million and a half dollars, and devised by a board of eminent engineers, to protect the city from invasion by the sea. A contract has been entered into and the grade of the streets of the city and private property is being raised by pumping In sand to the height of an average of about 12 feet, covering about 2-3 of the total area of the city and beginning immediately back of tile seawall. This work is to be paid for by an issue of bonds of $2,000,000. There has been put out to date about $1,850,000, of which over $550,000 have been taken by the city's various sinking funds, and before the completion of the contract the city is committed to take for the account of its sinking funds a total of $666,000 of these bonds, or 1-3 of the total issue. -Raising Bonds.
