Funds for Next Three Months.

Secretary Clark of the trustees of the
poor, at a monthly meeting, yesterday,
called attention TO the fact that with
appropriations made yesterday there re-
manned In the treasury only 81 900.
1t was estimated that it will require
at least $4,000 more TO meet the ex-
Ienses of the next three months and
rather than run into debt the trustees
decided that it would be necessary to
ask for an additional appropriation of
$4,000, and Attorney Lattomus was dI-
rected TO go before the Levy Court at
their next session and ask for that amount
Owing to the greatly increased cost Of
supplies of every kind, which is shown very
clearly by the refusal of merchants to
bid on supplies for the institution, the
trustees find themselves In very en-
barraSsing situation.

To time been curtailed until it now seems
impossible to cut expenses any lower.
The amount needed for running the
County Hospital for the next year was
estimated, yesterday, at $4,000, which
