VILLAGE BEING SUED
Iron Rivers Finances Show Debt

News Times Special Service:
IRON RIVER, Feb. IA crisis
in the tangled financial affairs of this
village may be precipitated by the
action Of James b. Glow & Sons. an
illinois corporation. in securing a
writ of mandamus, returnable Feb.
21, requiring the village TO show
cause why a debt of $1,64O.77 should
not be paid.
The action of Glow & Sons. it is
feared, may lead to similar proceed
ings by other creditors or holders of
village orders that have no Eego-
table value and that must be retain
ed until there is money in the treas
ury.
The floating debt of the village. a
large part of which is represented by
orders. fiuctuates between 100000
and $4,000, and it is all bearing six
per cent interest,". Seven individual
creditors have claims totaling nearly
$4,000. and the average amount OF
village Indebtedness carried by the
First National bank is just short Of
$4,000
The officials believe the village
will be able to weather through IL
the bank does not start legal pro-
ceedings similar to those undertaken
by Glow & Sons. AS yet the bank has
not threatened suit.
