Enioined From Using Borrowed

Case.

no power to levy any tax. This brings
into the city treasury annually about
the sum of $1S0,000. 1t appears that
the city has not only collected, but
expended this eum, and that it Is now
in debt upon its general Indebtedness
about $lS0,000 and that there is no
money in the treasury to pay this in
debtedness.
"This, in brief, is the situation,
and 1t is perhaps unnecessary or i'm
proper for the court to comment upon
! the business methods that have led
| to a condition of things so injurious
to the credit of the city and so en-
barrassing to those charged with the
duty of administering its affairs. There
has been, | am obliged to say, In con-
tracing debts and obligations against
the city gross disregard of the plain
provisions Of the law upon the SUBJ
ject. In other words, the city, through
its officers and representatives, has
run into debt and incurred obligations
for about double the amount that It
had any means, under the law. of
raising the revenue TO pay; and this
is all the more inexcusable from the
fact that the maximum amount that
can be raised in any one year is fixed
by law, and ordinary business pru-
dence and Judgment on the part of
those administering the affairs of the
city would certainly, under ordinary
circumstances, induce them to keep
within the maximum amount for
which revenue may be provided by
law to pay debts, instead of running
into debt, incurring obligations beyond
this amount, and then trusting for
temporary loans or other expedients
to meet such excessive obligations.
II should be glad. under ordinary cir
cumstances, in disposing of this case,
to relieve the city from the present
embarrassing situation in regard to
the payment of its current indebted
ness. Doubtless. there are many
claims that ought to he paid that are
Justly due, and many of the city en-
plOyes, depending upon their monthly
salaries, need what is coming to them,
and this last S5O,00O was, very likely,
borrowed I'm order to satisfy such
claims. But, as have said, the ques-
tion is purely one of law"

No Settlement Of the Trouble In
Sight.

Striking Electrical workers of the
local telephone companies say they
are determined to win the strike and
both the Peoples and Central Union
companies are determined that the
demands made shall not be granted.
the proposition the men make is for 10
hours pay and 9 hour days with a
minimum scale as follows: $50 per
month for first class linemen; $55 for
second class linemen; $45 for ground
men; $50 for first class inspectors; $50
for second class inspectors.
The men claim to have given the
company more than a month to an
swer their requests but that no salts
faction has been had from either COM
pany. President Thomas Wheeler of
the International Union of Electrical
Workers is here and has had two or
three meetings with the management
of each company to no purpose.
The companies claim that they will
soon fill the places made vacant by
the strikers and that the work will
go on. No new work can be done
now, but they claim that all necessary
repairs are being made.
A number of men who have been
sent for to take the places of strikers
have been dissuaded by the latter from
going to work.

Judge Kohler Saturday morning
made perpetual the injunction secured
by S. ID. Kenfieid, Esq, restraining
the City Solicitor from distributing
among the street, fire, police or park
funds or spending any of the $4,000
recently borrowed TO pay current ex-
penses. This decision is on the ground
stated in the law that the city cannot
borrow money second time until its
first loan Is paid.
Judge Kohler said it was high time
the city officials were regarding the
provisions of the law. He referred to
Section 1893 which provides that the
city cannot purchase goods unless
there is money in the fund to be drawn
upon, to pay for them, and that II
goods are purchased when the funds
are empty, the Council or Commits
sioners making the purchase shall be
individually responsible for payment
The fact that the City of Akron bor-
rowed $4,000 last March which loan
had not been paid at the time the sec
ond $4,000 was borrowed in August,
made it legally impossible for the
second loan to be made, because the
first had not been paid.
The result of Judge Kohler's de-
csion is that the city can pay few of
its bills and no salaries until the Feb
ruary tax apportionment has been re-
ceived, or until the legislature has
given authority TO issue bonds in an
ticipation of the collection of n larger
fax levy.
In the course of his opinion Judge
Kohler said:
1T is very clear from the disclosures
made upon the hearing of this case
that the city of Akron is in desperate
need of money upon its general indebt-
edness and outside of It's bond issues,
and the eXpedient temporary loans has
been resorted too tohelp the city out of
Its financial straits; and IL is not say
ing too much in this connection to say
that the financial affairs of this city
at the present time are In n deplorable
