6Oe.b0. This gives a net balance in the
principal sum OF $3.50, 1891 The fact that
there is at present so large an excess in
the Packers National over the others is
because the deposits in those two are per-
manent while the deposits in the Pack
ers' bank is subject to check and there
fore variable. Not over two months ago

1856. The interest accraihg from the city
deposits is this year the largest in the
history Of the city. The figures above
cover the inoumbency OF the present off,
cials. II is expected that the deposits will
reach $4,000 before the, close of the year.
The reason for the increase will be the
heavy tax roll, which will be very rapidly
collected during the next two months.
