some time pnst been endeavoring to
have all their cars equipped with the
automatic car coupler and a short
time ago notices were sent out to tho
various railroads that no cars unless
equipped with these couplers would be
received after the middle of this
month. This order has had the effect
of causing all roads to look after their
cars and during the last month there
has been considerable activity dis
played In having the law compiled
with, Heslile having automatic coup
lers, many of tho roads are equipping
their freight ears with automatic nlr
brakes, but ns this attachment is
more expensive than the couplers all
the cars are not being equipped, as the
law only requires only enough to have
tho air brake attachment, so as to be
able to control tho train.

DEBT STATEMENT FILED.
City's Net Indebtedness Is Only
6435,477.05.
In accordance with the provisions
of the act of assembly Controller
Howell yesterday filed with tho cl?rk
of the courts a statement of the clty'.i
net Indebtedness. This must be filed
before the issue of sewer bonds can
bo negotiated.
It was almost identical with the
statement filed at the beginning of the
fiscal yc-lr and shows the net in
debtedness to be J43ri.477.9ri. The law
allows an Issuance of bonds, with the
consent of the taxpayers, up to seven
per cent, of the assessed valuation of
real estate.
Tho assessed valuation for last year
was $23,121,011; seven per cent, of
which is $1,618,470.77, so that the city
still has a great big margin available,
the present bond Issue being only
$273,000.
