The Finsnce Committes met yesterday morn- ing to arrange and sgree upon the amonnt of money that It wiil be necessary to ralse by taxa- tion to mect the expenses of the county for the year. Tne assessed valuation of the property of the county is, In round nutnbers, about $108,000,000, againat $220,000,000 o ycar ago; and since the “ Ring" had increased the float- ing debt about 400,000, and since the rate fixed last year was within & vent of the constle tutlonal limit, tho flgures to be deslt with were fnsurmountable. Figuring from the nssoased valuation, and .on the constitutiona! Hwit,—75 conts on the $100,—the most thatconld e raised was found to be about $1,400,000, and this was leasing out the Interest on the *‘old Indebtedness, which lnay year was $1U1,805, and wlich will not bo less thia vear, The Comuit- tec saw a way to get around the *‘ofd indebte - nices,” as in that inatter the Board hasauthority to add to the constitutional rate. Holdun aud others wanted to [nclude in the nrprnnflntlon for the year $24,000 for the Court- House, for the bonetitof *Rinz® contract- ors: but, deducting this from the appropriation of Jast year, the Comunittee saw just where they were about to land. ‘They vrepared a report, however, on this “basls, to be lald beforc the Board {n the afternoon, and when it was not presented the ** Ring " was argry. 1t was withheld by Mr, Ayars because he discovered alter it waa made that thein- creased debt created by the “Ring,” or the de- fleit of nbout $400,000, tho past year had not been provided for, The Commitlee je to wreatle with the figurcs again to-day, and Tus TRINUNR may be able to throw some light on the sftuation.” Last vear the total amount ralscd was $1,00%5,585, which fncluded intercat on old indebred- ness, and this year the most that can be ralsed is nbout “$1,400,000, and this can only be done h{ {ncreasing the rate one vent on the $100, making It 75, and Imimlnn 10 cents extra for the Interest on the * old Intlcbtedness,” and Jeaving the **deficit?” of Jast year of about 400,000 unprovided for.

The new fudebtedness has increased materially, aud a deficit has grown up equal to the appropriation of last year for tho Court-House. Tiic amount neees- sary to be ralsed this year, then, figuring on the appropriations of a year ago, is as follows: It will be Court-House s left out entirely, aud must be necessarily, however solicitous uohan aod his ang may bo to furnish the money to uls favor- ite contractorstocompletethelr work. Buttnis s not the ouly sad cunditionof the situation if the oresent Board hos beoo ns {minaculate as it claiins, for the deficit of last year was created by the {nadequacy of the several appropristions for county charitics, hence the appropriationsabove will Iw&-m about $400,000 short vl what will be required, unless the new Bdard cuts offi that amount In It management of county affsirs.
