EAST ORANGE
TO REDUCE ITS
BONDED DEBT
CITY Will Exercise Its Option on
Payment of $4,000
Issue.
WOULDN'T HAVE MATURED
FOR TWENTY YEARS YET
Chairman Pierson Ar
nounees Highly Satisfactory
Condition of City's Finances.

On January !, 1899. the then township
of East Orange issued $500, 900 in gen
eral bonds known as series No. /. The
bonds were issued for thirty years and
bearing interest at the rate of 4 per
cent. per annum. A provision was in
serted In the conditions of the bonds
permitting the township to pay the first
$4,000 of the issue, that is the 81 900
bonds numbered 1 to 50, inclusive, at
the expiration of ten years and Of pay
ing teh next $4,000 of the issue In TWEEN
ty years, or, at the option Of the city.
the whole issue becoming due in thirty
years. When the bonds We're put out
it was not thought that they would be
paid before final maturity, but now the
first ten years nave elapsed the city
finds itself in such good financial con-
dition that it can conveniently pay the
$50, 900. Therefore the Sinking Fund
Commission at the last meeting held
February Is passed a resolution recon-
mending the exercising of the option
not later than July l next.
The conditions of the bonds were such
that if the option was to be exercised
it would be necessary to put an adver-
tisement to that effect In a New York
paper and in a Newark paper. and in
addition to mail a notice to any of the
registered holders of the bonds. but
when the Sinking Fund Commission
passed its resolution, the members did
not know where the bonds were held at
the present time.
Edward s. Pierson, chairman Of the
6.A- 1850. &h0
Sinking Fund Commission, took the
matter up with Louis McCloud, city
treasurer, and the bonds have been To-
Gated, part of them in an Orange Saw
ings Bank and the other part In a
Newark savings bank. In an interview
Mr.. Pierson stated that he did not
think that the holders of the bonds
would require the city to go to the eS-
pense of advertising in order to exer-
else the option, but that the institutions
would probably offer the city the cour-
tesy of allowing the payment Of the
bonds without further formalities and
thus save considerable expense.
East Orange is anxious to reduce its
bonded debt whenever possible. There
are approximately $4,000 outstanding
of an issue of avx arrearage bonds due
1914, and not only has the Board OF
Sinking Fund Commissioners sufficient
money on hand to pay these ponds but
they have already turned. over to the
city s26, 500 received In excess of the
amount required. This money has been
paid into a capital fund and will prob
ably be used during this year for con
structing new sewers instead of max
ing an issue of $4,000 sewerage con
struction bonds as would otherwise
have to be done. East Orange has
never been in better financial condition
than at present and those intrusted
with the care of the city's finances pro-
pose to keep it way.
