monthly statement Of the condition Of the
city funds. and II will be presented to the
| council at its meeting tonight. The treas
| urer makes the statement that the city is
| practically on a cash basis. In the school
| fund there are a few outstanding warrants,
! but these will be called in as soon as the
liquor license fund becomes available. The
! amount received from the banks of the city
! on the daily balances may possibly reach
5000 this year, owing to the large amounts
now deposited in the banks as the result
Of bond sales. The outlook is now for
considerable delay in the sewer contracts.
/ therefore the money will remain in the
banks. The distribution Of this money in
the three banks OF the city is as follows:
South Omaha National $1S2OS9.34; Packers
National. S172, S.s9; Union Stock Yards Ma
tional. $197,61767. This, with the current
cash on hand, gives a net balance in the
city treasury OF $685. 5s60
Among the most interesting matters
scheduled for the council meeting tonight
is the opening of bids for the paving OF
| Missouri avenue and the paving of G
street. The particular interest attached to
Missouri avenue is that II any other con-
tractor than Mr. Murphy secures the award
| litigation will follow over the possession
of the material now delivered on the
| ground All OF these considerations mean
more delay in the improvement of the
| street.
