FINANCIAL DISTRESS OF ELIZABETH.

TO the Editor Of The Tribune.
SIR: Referring to an item in your last Sun
days headed The Debt OF the City OF Elizabeth"
Will you kindly permit mako brief statement OF
facts which necessary to proper understanding
OF the casei
Several years ago, large sums OF money were ad
vanced by this company but by its directors
individually at the urgent solicitation OF officials of
Elizabeth TO that city from financial ruin and re-
pudiatIOu. large part OF these advances were call
loans aud the purchase OF bonds. In 1873 the
city refused TO pay interest denied the validity OF the
bonds and compelled us in common with other cred
tors TO protect our security by sui', which we OF
course won. Instead OF enforcing our rights by man
damns we waited nearly two years trying to get a
settlement Then In 1881 offered TO take in settle
ment bonds run forty years with interest graded
from per upwards averaging about Big per cent?
and submitted figures from the Controllers
office to show that the city could do
this without hardship and under a comparatively mod
crate tax rate. This was rejected "a the city eialned
they could not pay the interest thirteen mOntns ago
debt and issue new bonds for the oher hau bearing
per cent interest thus stating Their aDlt 70 raise Ia c
frs year mueh interest as orr plan called Tor
and they have actually levied II.
We told them their other creditors would never take
IN rcbange for iOOcents shorter term bonds sustained
by the courts but We would hold back our
would come In. Their men failed, and they en-
gagged General woodiord and General FITZGERALD the
two abest men they could get. We nave waited over
the wear and recently have extended the time another
month bnt only about one-seveut mot 20 yer cent as
Iaed OF the debt IN and even this, as the agents
Themselves "a y, takeV from poor people VINO were
willing 10 take anything 20 get some Interest or else II
came in brokers who bought so cheap theY coua
make money by exchanging All THIS time other cred
tors who mi live In the city are bringing IN tnel
m,udamuses which have 10 help pay, our factory
E asessed FOR ITS share Now the reputation soteheht
hae failed after more than years trial ana we must
nTotect ourselves We have kept the Oher open 70 take
100 cents IN forty year bOndsw low rates OF interest,"
ana we have even held of aud helped pay other cIeu
ors while this settlement was being tried so Ia the
