We called on several houses in Sc

Three houses said that they did not

The third said that it was worth five

A Serious Injury.

Late Friday afternoon George H.
Baldwin, while engaged at Lupe's
grain elevator, caught his right hand
in some machinery while it was in mo.
ton. The flesh of the upper part OF
the hand was literally scraped off and
one or two of his fingers badly injured.
DIR. w. G. Overstreet was called in
and dressed the wounds. Baldwin
went to his home in Dresden yester-
day.

next, ETC., into such parts as will show
theportion paid by the income opposite.
The coupons, being classified by the
dates they bear, the table will show by
the dates of the installment OF revenue
opposite. the year in which each particu-
lar class may be expected to be paid.
For example, a coupon of 1891 will
be paid by the income of 1895.
and if money in bondholders' circles is
worth per cent. compound interest, 1891
coupons of the face value of 81 are worth
to-day 81 cents. In other words, if we
put 81 cents at per cent. compound in
tereSt until the middle OF 1893 1t would
then bring US in 81, or the same as if we
had 81 face value of coupons of 1891 and
cash them in 1895.
The table shows that there will be no
considerable amount of money left over
to pay on bonds until 1898, and therefore
that the bonds of 'SS, '93 and '9S Will then
be due and bidding against each other for
the surplus, since one bond has no adj
vantage over the other
Table No. l will therefore show the
dates of expectancy of payment of each
class of coupons or bonds and their con-
sequent worth, figuring money worth 4
per cent. compound interest.
The bidding for bonds will undoubt-
eddy be done on a basis of the average
value of the bonds. If some are to be
paid in 1857, and so on in installments up
TO 1906, we have only TO average the
values of the different payments and SO
get at the average value of the bonds.
This is a reasonable basis to assume, so
long as we preserve the commission to
bid against the outsiders. This method
of figuring would not be warranted if the
commission were abolished and the bonds
by combine of Meyer, Davis and Bates.

All That Is Needed.

faith he may have in either the ardent
friends or irreconcilable enemies of the
commission. What has taken me several
hours to tabulate and set forth, can be
criticised in very short order, and have
faith that my results will be found TO be
fairly accurate.
With the commission operating until
the debt is finally paid in full we figure
treating the commission as a bondholder
cashing its bonds and coupons the same
as any other bondholder. The present
accepted, construction of the law is that
when there is any money in the bond
redemption or interest and sinking fund
as it is called, those holding the oldest
| due or past due coupons are entitled TO
it. Should there be no coupons due and
| unpaid, the one who Will surrender the
most bonds for the least money will be
entitled to cash such bonds. The actual
mode of working therefore will result In
| coupons being clipped from the bonds
/ from time to time, as the owners are able
! TO cash them. That viii finally leave the
! stub or bond which we will call a naked
! EOn3 For convenience an td6utdttng we
/ can therefore consider all the coupons
/ cut off or detached. These coupons and
/ the then naked bonds will comprise the
| total amount which the City Treasurer
will have to redeem before the debt Is
| paid. These detached coupons we have
| listed in the order in which they will be
! paid, which is as we have assumed, IN
| the order of the dates they bear.
AS the law provides that certain contin-
! gent amounts shall be appropriated each
! year to pay these coupons and bonds,
we can consider that we owe this total OF
/ detached coupons past and futurel and
naked bonds, all of which we are to pay
| through the City Treasurer dollar for dol
lar, but on the installment plan.
| estimate that these insIallmentS will
vary from $4,000 in 1882 to SlS0,OO0 in
1887 and 500, 600 in 1905. Considering, as
we do, the commission as bondholder,
we must figure it as such to the end,
which would then be in 1906, for we can
not consider the purchase of additional
bonds by the commission any more than
we can the trading Of other bondholders
amongst themselves. This we consider
later when we show that about the first
part OF the year 1895 the commission
Uiqht become our only bondholder and
our debt in reality paid. If the commits
sion continued TO act as a bondholdel
cashing coupons and bonds the last bond
would be cashed, as above, about 1906.
I have estimated the yearly revenues
that are applied TO redeem the debt on {
basis OF progress for Sacramento est
, mated on a basis Of the present rate of IN
crease in population.
Now look at table No. l. The bes
method of figuring on the basis outlined
above is by tabulating the annua
revenues and paralleling this table witt
a table Of detached coupons and naked
bonds arranged in the order in which we
consider they are entitled to be paid. II
formulating this table l have divided
such classes of coupons and as will bt
paid partly in one year and partly IN tht

est past due coupons have prior right to
Draw down their share of this INSTALL
lnent; that any surplus after paying all
the outstanding past due coupons shall be
devoted to the redemption of bonds, of
which again those that are due shall have
preferences; that the date of the bond does
rot figure in this preference as it does in
the case OF the coupons, since the law pro-
vides that the bonds shall be paid in a
specific way which will cause the money
10 go the bondholder who will surrender
the most bonds for the money on hand TO
buy bonds.
Finally, assume that past due coupons
and matured bonds do not bear interest.
The law on this point has been fully in
terpreted by our courts so far as the cou-
ponS are concerned, but not so fully as TO
the bonds.
The calculations I make are based on
figures obtained from a tabulated state
1aent made by Mr.. Hopper, showing the
condition of our debt at about the close OF
the year 1891. Mr.. Hopper's table showed
the holdings of the outside bondholders
and of the commission separately and the
aggregate holdings of both combined. To
save reproducing these tables, reference
IS made to table No. for a classified list
of the combind holdings of the outsiders
and of the commission. The coupons and
bonds are classified according TO the dates
they bear, and the future coupons are
listed the same as are the detached or past
cue coupons. The left hand column OF
table No. will show a list of the hold
ilgs of the outside bondholders.
l shall now endeavor to present a
method of figuring on the debt which
claim has the merit of presenting the sub
Jet in snch shape that it can be readily
checked up and intelligently criticised by
any banker, bookkeeper, merchant or
grammar school graduate who has mas
tered the subjects OF discount and averag-
Jag accounts. Though / Go claim origi-
rality in some of the features of present

D. A. Lindley Does Some Figuring on
the subject-CIaim That the Com
mission Can Save 100000.

Ihere was meeting yesterday OF the
subcommittee appointed by the Free
holders to inquire into the status OF the
Funded Debt Commission, and to report
rs to what the effect would be if the COM
mission were to be abolished one year
hence, compared to that of allowing it
run until the city debt should, in the nat
ural course of events, be paid or OBJ
sorbed by it.
At the request of Freeholder Hall, d.
a. Lindley submitted statement pre-
pared by him for the committees consid-
Grafton, which statement is given below
There were present at yesterday meet
ing Freeholders C. L. White, G. L. Sim
mons, T. B. Hall and c. II. Hubbard.
The statement submitted by Mr. Lindley
was read and discussed at great length,
but the views expressed thereon cannot
be given, as the committee met on short
notice aud reporters were not present.
No action was, however, taken in the
matter.
MR.. LINDLEY'S STATEMENT.
A clear statement of the status of oul
city debt could only be made by going
into details and history with which most
of our good citizens are quite familiar

published, were so voluminous as to
necessitate resort to the form ola continued

in the Bee some two years ago could no
help but get fairly accurate knowledge
of the subject, and l Will take it FOL
granted that everyone interested in The
subject has that knowledge.

NEW HIGH SCHOOL NEEDED.
That is What the Board of Education
Saw for Itself.
Annual Tour of the Schools and What
it Was Productive of-The
Mushroom Building.

The members of the City Board of Ed
ucation, accompanied by Superintendent
Albert Hart, began their annual tour of
the city's schools yesterday morning, for
the purpose of determining the needs of
the buildings in the way of repairs, sup
plies, etc.
The tax levy of the municipality will
be made next month, and in view of that
fact the board seeks the necessary infor-
nation, which it will communicate to the
City Trustees.

They first visited the High School, Pro-
fessor j. II. Pond, Principal. It was the
evident judgment of the board that the
ground room and the building are made
quote for the accommodation OF the
pupils there taught, particularly the
laboratory room. This is so small as to
be practically useless.
1t was the opinion of the members of
the board that the needs of a city of the
size of Sacramento demanded the cree
ton of high school building in a cen
trail location, and evidently their feeling
was that the sooner such a structure, that
will indeed be credit to the city and adj
equate to the wants will be erected. the
