This question has been SO thoroughly
discussed by Tho Times-Dispatch that
II is needless to rciteratc our views.
But aside from the merits Of the case,
the condition of the bond market Is
such as to warn the city against conf

until the demand for bonds has ma
terally improved, OF which there is
as yet no visible sign.
The Mayor notes, In passing, that
