IF uniformity is to prevail the
descriptions of positions must be
much more complete in order to
allocate them TO the classes or the

qualifications are essential. For
budget purposes a list Of titles with

CITY GETS BIDS FOR
ONLY 100000
Private Sales Of Revenue Bills
and Stock to Care for Bal
ance Of Issues.

Total bids Of only s2e 400 ,00e We're
received FOR the $4,000, 900 OF revenue
bills and $1,000 900 OF corporate stock
Of the City Of New York. and Of them
$4,000 600 had to be rejected. As re-
suit the latest attempt at financing by
New York city authorities was far from
an unqualified success Nevertheless
I there Is expectation that the full require
ments OF the city win be met from pri-
! vate sales, which have been going on
/ from time to time for many months.
The bids were opened at noon yesterday
\ in the office Of Deputy Comptroller Phil
\ bin and the awards were made as fol-
4 lows:
The First National Bank, $4,000, 900
I Off revenue notes, maturing on June IA.
At 5.9e per cent. discount basis
\ The Chase National Bank and Salo-
mon Brothers & Hutzler. S5,000.oo of
revenue bills. maturing on May 26, at
\ $50 per cent, discount basis.
4 Kuhn. Loeb & Co. $5,000,00o Of rev
enue bills. maturing on May &c. at s
per cent discount basis.
The Chemical National Bank $1,000
600 Of revenue bills. maturing on June s.
at per cent. discount basis.
The First National Bank OF Brooklyn
4 S250,00o Of revenue bills maturing on
June IA. at 5,95 per cent discount basis.
The Industrial Bank of New York
Sl50,000 OF revenue bills. maturing on
June 5. at discount basis of 5.99 per
cent.
Mr.. Philbin attributed the scarcity of
bids to the prevailing high money rate
and the desire of bankers to obtain
\ higher rate than the city is willing to
pay at present. As matter of fact
> per cent. discount basis was as high
as the city could legally GO At that. the
4 First National Bank was able TO figure
yield Of $50 per cent. on the invest
\ nent, owing to the exemption from
Federal taxation as affecting the larger
incomes subject to surtax.
Among the bids received were those
OF the Public National Banl for
4 $4,000. 900 on both kinds of issues in
lots Of s500.00o on the basis of COS to
6.5o.
