JUDGE KELLEY AND THE CREDIT Mo-
BILIER SHAREs.-Judge Kelley, of Penn
! sylyana, called on Treasurer Spinner,
| Wednesday morning, and made full
and detailed statement of the Credit
Mobilicr matter between him and Oakes
Ames, and requested Spinner to demand
| from Mr.. Ames a full statement of all
! dividends on account of Credit Moblicr
stock which Ames claims he held for
Kelley. Judge Kelley said he had new
| er been able to obtain from Mr.. Ames
any statement of such dividends He
had transferred to the United States all
| his claims, if any, for the Credit Mobil-
| Ter stock and dividends. Mr. Kelley
| did not wish the Treasurer to enter this
money upon the records as part of the
| conscience fund, for he still asserts that
it never was his property, but in order
to place it in the possession of the Gov
eminent where it properly belongs, if it
has any existence. Judge Kelley made
this statement and request in the pres
ence of several gentlemen who happened
to be in the office at the time
STARTLING REVELATIONS. The report
of the finance committee of the consti-
tutional commission in relation to the
bonded debt of the counties, cities and
towns of New ork, shows that the ag-
gregated bonded debt reaches the sum of
1914, 81, 676. This does not include the
State debt The value of real and per-
sonal property in the State is So, 1874
034, 143. OF the entire bonded debt, $780,
919, 662 were contracted for railway pur-
poses, and it is believed that in nine
teenths of the towns the property, real
and personal, will be compelled to pay
not only the interest, but also the full
amount of the bonds, which in most in
stances have all been made payable in
the same year, while in some towns the
debts thus contracted equal fifty per
cent Of the assessed valuation of the
property. In view Of these startling rev.
Citations the committee is of the opinion
that constitutional restrictions ought to
be adopted preventing municipalities
from bonding themselves in excess of
ten per cent. of their assessed valuation,
which is quite enough for city or town
to be burdened with.
