Charlotte Will Havt to Borrow Fifty
H Tnouaand.- : ;
Charlotte, May 17. The interest
on the city's $2155,000 bonded in
debtednessamounting to $50,000 is
Ihe next 'big item of expense to the
municipality that will require the
new finance committee and the board
cf aldenqen to knit their brows. This
sum of money must be in the posses
sion of. the four banks to which it is
to be paid by July L ; The four banks
nre The National Bank of Commerce,
New York; The National Park Bank,
of i New - York, ahe -First National
Bank ..of - New --.York and -Mercantile
Trust and Deposit Company, of Bal

; The tub about the aituavtion is that
the money to pay this interest will
have to be borrowed. There remains
uncollected on the city tax collector's
books about $25,000, : whieh, if f all
collected, would hardly run the eity
until the first of July. . The Lnew
. taea .will not begin to come In- be-
rore tnat time ana tne. new revenue
