COUNTY BOARD IS
WORRIED OVER LAW
Act Passed by 1893 Legislative
Session May Affect Regis
tering Of Warrants

Burleigh county,s board Of commits
sioners wants to know whether Chap
ter 247 Of the Session Laws Of 1888
means what 1t says when It states
that no Indebtedness can be in.
CURED and no undertaking Or expen-
ditures authorized Ia excess Of unen.
numbered uncollected taxes which,
have been levied during the current
year."
The board has asked States Attor.
ney George 8. Register for an opin-
ion regarding the law to be furnish
ed at its April meeting.
Register told the board Thursday
morning that he believed the law pro-
hibited the issuance Of registered
warrants In excess Of uncollected
taxes for the year 1883. The law
provides that certificates Of indebted
ness can be issued against uncollect-
ed taxes for the current year, plus
uncollected taxes remaining upon the
tax lists Of four preceding years.
The act provides that any officer
Of political subdivision executing
any warrant In violation OF the law
shall be guilty Of misdemeanor and
Is personally liable for the amount Of
the warrant.
Under the law ia effect before July
l, 1888, registered warrants could be
issued the same Is certificates Of in
debtedness, against uncollected taxes
for the preceding four years.
The board expects to finish its
work late Thursday afternoon or Fri
day morning.

CONCLUDE SERIES
Girl Pianist Who Has Startled
Europe and New York Will
Play at City Auditorium

roldi Mildner, the Viennese pianist
who swept her audience to its feet
on several occasions when she made
her American debut In New York's
Town hall, will play at Bismarck city
auditorium Monday evening, conclud-
ing the 1884 Singers Guild Artist Sc.
ries sponsored by Miss Maude A. Toll

During the five years preceding
her American debut, which was
classed as "the most startling event
Of the musical autumn" Miss Mild

Germany, Holland, italy, Roumania,
France. Switzerland and some Of the
Balkans. winning more fame and
more praise wherever she played.
She took New York by storm.

the immense strength and the range
OF sonorities, from very soft to very
loud and grand" wrote Olin Downes
Of the New York Times.
Pitts Sanborn. another leading New

praistng Miss Mildner. He comment
ed, "A slight young girl, said to be

to Hofmann or Lhevinne. and q
strength that Camera might envy II
the keyboard were his medium.
She commanded really heroic
tone. tone which in these DAYS of
pianistic miniature is rarely even at
tempted, and which set some Of us
wondering whether Rubinstein and
List hadn't played like that. More
over, her tone was beautiful through
out extraordinary gradations, from
the softest pianissimo to a crashing
fortissimo.
This young girl is a pianist In the
great tradition and the grand style.
She has the big line, the irresistible
sweep, the fiery impetus, the pris-
matte color that one finds only in
executants cast in the heroic mould"
Success In New York was no sur.
prise to Poldi Mildner. Triumph at

sentence.
I'm all my life have never thought
about anything but music" she said
with utmost simplicity an hour after
she had held critical metropolitan

OF her technique at the piano.

TRADE BALANCE
Of U.s.. OFFSET
DUR|NGYEAR

Americas Favorable" balance
OF trade, gold and service items
in 1888, amounting to 425 million
dollars, was offset for the most
part by net Withdrawals in dollar
balances by foreigners of 412 mil
lions, which was reflected in a
net loss for the year of 232 mil
lions in gold through export and
earmarkings, the Department of
Commerce announced today.
American exports exceeded i'm
ports by 226 million dollars, but
this was SO million less than in
1892. War debt payments of 20
million were only about one-fifth
those Of 1882.
Tourist Spending Drops
Expenditures of American tour
lists abroad were 220 million, or
155 million less than in 1882,
Immigrants sent home last year
107 million against 1872 million
the year ,efore.
Devaluation of the dollar was
expected to cut imports and in
crease exports, but both increased
until November. At that time
imports increased, as American
buyers completed their purchases
before the dollar fell still lower.
Meanwhile, foreign buyers held
off purchases, expecting a further
fall.
Exports Take Jump
When the devaluation was COM
pleted at the present level, ex-
ports increased and imports
were checked. Americ- n export
erS left the proceeds of their
foreign sales abroad, and there
is no way to measure the extent
Of this flight from the dollar"
This procedure constituted one
of the various forms in which
capital was eXpatriated during
the year.
Banking difficulties, as well as
the gyrations of the dollar, had
their effect in transfers of funds
during the year. Strongly indica.
tive of a flight from the dollar"
was an abnormally large inflow
of American paper currency from
abroad, much of it in large. bills
not reprinted after 1929.
However, the departments eX'
perts think much of this money
would have come back anyhow.
Attention is called to the
prominence of security transfers
as q means of capital expatria'
ton, but the department holds
that the Importance of this has
been overestimated.
OF Americans touring abroad,
there was a decline in numbers
of % per cent from 1882 to 1888,
and reentry permits show that
the number of aliens touring
abroad fell "a per cent in the
same period. #-

University for study.
DR.. friedman bought the
bird from its original owner
and for a time kept it at the

DR.. william Mann, superin-

was a freak, but that no def

 :, Final Reports
 Before adjourning sine die, the old Council approved and ordered paid few outstanding bills, ap- proved the reports of Auditor John Martin who checked and found them to balance, the books of the City Clerk and Treasurer, and Clerk Gray's annual financial report.
 According to Clerk Gray the past year financially and otherwise was one of the most successful in several years His report shows total receipts of $33,81135 against expenditures of $33,97379. Stock on hand, however, and against out standing liabilities, net resources of S135.61 are indicated. The city also had a new truck costing S1200 that it did not have before which must be considered with the resources.

MAYOR GOETz,
 NEW COUNCIL,
 FOR DOUGLAS
Applic a ton for Federal Loan Approved-$4O,-
 900 Be Asked for

lL
 The old City Council headed by Mayor Guy L. Smith, passed out of existence last night following a short business session and Mayor A E. Goetz with Councilmen John Feusi, James Sey, Ed Andrews Hans Loken, A. J. Balog, members of the old Council, and A. F. Granberg took over the citys man agement.
 H. L. Faulkner, City Attorney for Douglas, was present at the meeting and presented for the ap- nroval of the Council a sample ap- plication that must go to Congress to secure permission to bond the city for a federal or other loan to be used for the proposed new water. sewerage and drainage systems. It was decided that it would be the best policy to apply for S40,OO0 instead of $8o,0oo and have that much money available should it be needed.
 Special Election
 MT. Faulkner pointed out that the latest regulation would make it necessary for the city to have special election authorizing the loan before the bonds could be issued after approval of the lean by Congress. Twenty days notice of the special election would be necessary and only taxpayers could vote, a simple majority of whom would be necessary to carry the issue.
 The Council approved the ap- plication asking for $25, ,000 for the water system and $15000 for sew craze and drainage systems, and it be prepared at once and for warded to Congress as soon as pos sible.
 Committees
 Mayor Goetz announced his con- mittees for the ensuing year as follows:
 Feusi, Loken and Gram berg.
