WARRANT OWNERS WILL GET THEIR CAS Cltr ' ArrnnRlnx for the Trnntee I Act Uo-iletWfen In Making the Traiinfcr and Cloning Up the Heal. No attempt will be made by the city float the $150,000 IPSUO of refunding bom to pay off the outstanding warrants l mi prior to tbo present fiscal year , but thi will be tendered in exchange to the hoMe of these warrants. The Impression lit gone forth when the city council authorlzi and ordered the Ismie of these refundlt bonds that they would bo sold In the op < market and the proceeds used to take i the outstanding warrants. This , howevc Is not the case. There will simply b manual exchange "of warrants for the bond This procedure Is made Imperative , as tl city Is clos-e to Ita constitutional Indcbtei net * and the United States supreme cou has hold' that when a city is up to Its coi Btttiitlon.il limit of indebtedness tbo only wi a city can change the face of Its Indebtei nces Is by exchange of bond for bond , wa rant for warrant or warrant for bond. Tl fact that the city IB close up to Us const tutlonal limit of Indebtedness prevents praclng upon the open market this Issue $150,000 refunding bonds , although with an hour afler the sale out-standing warran to the same amount mlg-ht be paid off wl the proceeds of such sale. Between the tin of the sale of the bonds and the redemptii of the warrants , even although It did n exceed one minute , the city would exce < Us authorized limit of Indebtedness and t Issue of bonds would be Invalid. Thus becomes necessary for the city In ord to refund these outstanding warrants effect a manual exchange of bonds for t warrants. This , however , will not mean that hoi ers of outstanding warrants will be fore to accept these bonds at 44 per cent. Th will , provided the necessary negotlatto can bo perfected , receive cash for t amount of thvlr warrants and Interest , b In order to do so they will have to acsli their warrants to some one party who wining to invest his capital In the bom This party will buy up these warrants a : then turn them over to the city In exchan for the bonds. Frank True , the city flnan clerk , Is now trying to lay hU hands ' some one to do this and Is hopeful that will succeed. Were It not for the lltlgatl brought about by J. J. Shea there wou not bo the slightest trouble In being at to dispose of these bonds , but In spite this Mr. True said yesterday he hoped to able to negotiate the bonds. He has se out a circular letter making the offer of e change to all warrant borders whose o dresses ho has been able to secure , h as warrants are constantly changing baa it will be some time before all a reached. Several persons In the city who arc hoi ers of outstanding warrants have noUfl Mr. True 'that they are -willing to exchan their warrants for bonds. The warrants ov standing which the bonds are Issued to ret ! data back to 1896. For the fiscal year en Ing March , 1S96 , the sum of $1,302.93 Is oi standing ; for the fiscal year ending Mar 1 , 1807 , $59,413.82 , and for the fiscal ye ending March 1 , 1S9S. $75,061.44. making total of $135,778.19. The Interest on the warrants will amount to between $13,000 a $15,000. Remember the exposition by getting soi copies of Snap Shots at the Council Blu otflco of The Bee. Ten cents each.
