Newark, N. J.. Aug 2S.-By issuing bonds under the provisions of Chapter 60 of the New Jersey 1894 Pamphlet Laws, the City of Newark. x. J., becomes the first large municipality in the State of New Jersey to commit itself defln- itely to remain on cash basis budget
 Chapter 60 of the 1884 Pam phlet Laws, which permits muni- cipalitv to fund it's current float ing debt. also requires that any municipality issuing bonds there under must thereafter make up it's annual budgets on cash basis as long as any of the bonds remain outstanding. The S6,0O0,O0O of serial funding bonds to be placed privately by Newark with banking institutions in exchange for tax notes are to be issued under the authority of Chapter 60. Because these bonds will be outstanding be- fore the date of delivery of the $6,225,000 of Improvement bonds. which are to be publicly offered on September 6, purchasers of the lat ter issue receive the assurance Of the city's definite commitment to d cash basis budget.
 Reginald Parnell, director of revenue and finance of the City of Newark, points out that the pro- visions as to the cash basis are, by the act, made contract be- tween holders of the bonds and the municipality. and that this contract is enforceable by mandamus by any holder in behalf of all other holders.
 Under the leash basis required, total estimated cash receipts in any fiscal year must at least equal the total cash appropriations for the year. In estimating receipts from taxes, no greater percetaGes of col lections can be anticipated from the current and back taxes than were actually received in cash on the corresponding taxes during the fiscal year. reserve for uncollected taxes must be included in the budget in an amount suf- ficient to compensate for any an ticipated delinquency in taxes. lf a deficit should occur in spite of these provisions, the act requires that such deficit must be included as a cash item in the following years budget.
 Director Parnell calls attention to the fact that Newark volun- tarily made up it's budget for 1884 on a cash basis, but that here after the use of the cash basis will not be voluntary, but mandatory.
 The issuance of securities by Newa,@ under the provisions of Chapter 60 is a further step in q general plan for improvement or tho city's finances, worked out by Norman s. Taber x Go. Tn pointing to the beneficial effect of man.

New York, Aug 2S.-(UP)- Typical vacation-week trading on the stock exchange to-day pro duced one of the most unlnterest- ing sessions of the year.
 Most price changes were toward lower levels although there was slight pickup from the lows Tn the afternoon. Traders regarded the din as of no importance as most of the business done was by pro- fessionals with the public traders awaiting some indication ot thc trend after Labor day.
 Other markets were as dull as the stock exchange. Grams were mostly lower atthe close, corn De, ing an exception. Cotton firmed a few points. Copper, rubber' hides and silk were easier. Bonds were featured by a recovery m United States governments. Ihe dollar was firm. .,
