COMYTROLLER LAWRENCE'S CONSTRUCTION OF THE NEW LAW, The following is the full text of the opinion of First Controller Lawrence touching the 3.65 bords of the District of Columbia, of which mention has heretofore been made In Tug Star: 'YREASURY DEPARTMENT, FIRST COMPTROLLER'S OFFICR, Washington, D. C., July 26, 1330. Hon. Jas. Gilfillan, Treastrer of the U. 8.2 Sm :—I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 30th ult., asking for a construction of the act of Con; entitled “An act to provide for the settlement of all outstanding c! against the District of Co- lumbia and confer jurisdiction upon the court of claims to hear the same, and for other pur- poses,” approved June 16, 1580. Section 9 of the act of Mery og! ae for the settlement of all outstanding claims against the District of Columbia and conferring juris- diction on the court of claims to hear the same, and for other purposes, ap- roved June 16, 1880, enacts:—‘That the asurer of the United States, as ex-.Mcio sinking-fund commissioner of the District of Columbia is hereby authorized and directed to redeem the bP ageoos | cortificates of the late board of audit, created by the act approved June 20, 1 with the interest ac- crued on said certificates by issuing and deliv- ering tothe owners or holders of such certifl- cates, bonds of the District of Columbia, as _pro- vided in section seven of the act approved June 20, IST4, entitled “An act for the government of the District of Columbia, and for other puz- pcses,” and acts amendatory thereof, said bonds to bear the same date, same rate of interest, and interest and principal be payable at same time, and subject to all the conditions, pledges of faith, and exemptions as the bonds author- ized to be issued by the said seventh section of said act, and shall be signed by the sald treas- urer as ex-officio sinking fund commisstoner of the District of Columbia, and numbered, coun- tersigned, sealed aud registered as the said sev- enth section of said act prescribes detaching all coupons from sald bonds up to the date of such certificates.” Your letter asks my opinion upon the follow- ing points, vi t what date the interest on the 3.65 bonds to be issued tn redemption of the board of audit certificates In question shall commence, and whether under exisfing law there fs any appropriation for the payment of interest upon the 3.65 bonds so issued. It seems plain from the language of the sec- tion quoted that the interest is to commence at the date of the certificates that the bonds are issued to redeem. . Pefcre I can answer the gecond question it will be necessary to consider some of the a:ts of Congress, relative to the payment of inter st on the 3.65 bonds of the District of Columbia, The issue of bonds was provided for by the act of June 2, 1874, the seventh section of which, as amended by act of February 20, 1375, Provides as follows: = “And the faith of the United States is hereby pledged that the United States will, by proper proportional appropriations, as contemplated y this act, and by causing to be levied upon the property within said District such taxes as will do so, provide the revenues necessary to pay, the interest on sald bonds as the same may ecome due and payable, and create a sinking fund for the payment of the principal thereof at maturity.” (See U. S. Statutes, vol. 15, p. 332, Id. 120, sec 7. This act al rovided that the interest of these bonds should be payable at the Treasury of the United States, The next general provision relative to the Payment of interest 1s found 1n the latter part of section 4, of the act of Congress providing a permanent form of government for the District of Columbia, yak June 11, 1878, where it is enacted that * Hereafter the Secretary of the Treasury shall pay the interest on the 3-65 bonds of the District of Columbia, issued in pur- suance of the act of ee pemned June 20, 1874, when the same shall become due and payable; and all amounts so paid shall be credited asa part of the appropriation for the year by the United States toward the expense bes ee District of Columbia, as hereinbefore pro- The First Comptroller has decided that this Clause in the act of June 11, 1875, did not make ab appropriation for the payment of interest of the 3.65 bonds, and that the amount neces- Sary to pay such interest should ¥e included in the yearly estimates, and appropriations made by Congress for the expenses of the District ao Provisions of section 3, of the same ‘The appropriation for interest for 1830, and prior years, have been exhausted, and conse- quently there is no money available for the pay- Ment of interest_on the bonds to be issued unless it can be paid out of the appropriation Tor the current fiscal year. ‘The estimates of the Commissioners of the District of Columbia, as approved by the Secre- tary of the Treasury, in accordance with the provisions of section 3, of the act of June 11, 1878, for the fiscal year ending June 20, 1831; contained an item “for interest and sinking fund on the funded debt of the Bistrict, exclu- sive of water bonds, $1.155,533.55.” ‘This estimate was based upon the amount of the funded debt of the District at the date, December, 1879, when it was submitted, and Was only for the sum n¢ for interest and ee fund for the fiscal year 1831, under the Provisions of law, on the bonds of the District which were then Cutstanding. Congress, by the act making appropriations for the District of Columbia for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1851, approved June 4, 1539, appropriated “for the sinking fund and interest on the funded debt, exclusive of water bonds, one million one hundred and iifty-tive thousand five hundred and eighty-three dollars and fitty- five cents,” the exact umount estimated, The act authorizing and directtng the Treas- urer to issue 3.65 bonds to redeem outstanding certificates of the late board of audit wax not passed until twelve (12) days after the passage Of the act making the appropriation. The amount appropriated for the payment of interest by the prior act will not be sulticlent to pay the {oterest falling due during the fiscal year iss] on all the bonds previously outstaud- ing and those to be issued under the act of June 16, 1580. juestion, therefore, arises, did Congress intend that the sum appropriated should be ap- plied exclusively in paying interest on bonds outstanding prior to the act of June 16, 1330, or that all should share the b nefit of the appro- priation? The act of June 16, 1530, makes the new bonds ‘sulject to «al! the conditions,” pledges of faith and exemptions as bonds previously outstanding. One of the “conditions” impressed on these bonds by the act of February 20, 1375, Js “that the United States will, by proper pro- portional appropriations " * * and by caus. ing to be levied upon the property within said District, such taxes as_will do so, provide the revenues necessary to pay tue interest on said bonds as the same may become due.” Another condition tmpressed on the bonds by the act of dune 11, 1878, 1s, that “the Secretary of the Treasury shall pay the interest on the 3-65 bonds of the District of Columbia _* * when the saine shall become due and payable.” Congress was so careful to provide the cer- tain means of payment that in case the Distr! should fail to raise 1ts proper proportion an ad- vance from the Treasury 1s provided for, The Lew bonds to be issued under the act of June 16th, 180, were made “subject to ali” these “conditions.” In other words, tt 1s mani fest that they were, by ihe act of June 16th, iss:, in ail respects placed on the same footing and with all the rights of prior bonds. Unless the language of a statute imperatively go re- quires, it should never be so construed as to impute to Congress a purpose to refuse pay- ment of an admitted and overdue lability and a purpose to withhold from officers of the gov- ernment the means of performing duties im posed by Congress; yet these results follow if tt decided that the interest on the new bonds can not be paid. It may be sald that one of the “conditions” to Which these bonds is subjected is, that estl- mates shall be made and submitted to Congress for the amount required to pay interest (Rev. Stat. 3669, Act June 11, 187s, 29 Stat. 104) and that an appropriation sliall be made. Estimates were mace and submitted to Congress for bonds of this class generally—tor interest X on the funded debt of the District.” But it will not be doubted but Congress can appropriate without such estimate, If after the appropriation act of June 4, 1530, it had been expressly provided by law that the previous appropriation “shall be applicable to the pay- ment of interest on bonds since issued,” no doubt would exist on the subject. The provis- fon in the act of June 16, 1530, that the new bonds shall be “subject te all the conditions” of the prior bonds, has the effect to make the Lae | at apanectg i me a to the pay- ment of interest on all the bonds alike, It may be observed that the Kg ap ge made by the act of June 4, 1890, is “for the sinking and interest on ‘the funded debt.” If this stood alone it ht well be worthy of consideration, w! is language would not apply to the “funded debt” not toe hy but as it might ke, It is for the * aud the new bonds are part of the funded debt. ‘The former tice as to appropriations for interest on fie | Public debt corroborates this view. It does not follow that because the existing a] propriation 7 ay be insutticieat ro pay et he ieee meee pe bene It of the new bor ds, - Congress will meet in December next, and it isto be presumed will make the necessary ap propriaticn to pay all the interest maturing during the current fiscal year. I am of opinion, ‘hereiore, that the interest on the new bonds May be paid out of the appropriation for the current fiscal yr ar. Tre bords will have attached thereto coupons apparently overdue, and as having matured prior to the current fiscal year. These can be paid out of the appropriation for the current fis- cal year. The coupons for previous years constitute a ability actually accruing the current fiscal s ear. Very Fae, LAWRENCE, Comptroller. Political Ems Present appearances indicate that a democrat will be returned to Congress from the 20th Ohio district unless the differences between the friends of Mr. Rose and Mr. Townsend, (the sitting member, who was renominated,) can be reconciled. It is not believed that this difi- culty would seriously affect Gen. Garfleld’s vote in the state, as the quarrel is a purely local one and relates to men rather than panei lee: but at the same time every effort will be made to bring about a union. It is thought that a new convention may be called, in whose decision both sides would acqulesce.

One /ile driver was kept In opera ton all day, and at tive o'clock another was put up. Both were kept working through the night, £0 that by to-morrow morning the piling wlil be completed, and it 1s expected that by the end of the present week the bottom will be reached, Colonel Haskin, the President of the company, says that the pile drivers are the hea. Siest and the largest to be obtained around New York. Mr. Husktn said that the loss to tae tunnel company because of the accidentwill not be very great, probably not over $20,000. No stock Of the company had yet been placed on the market, and he said that if the accident nad not occurred for a month, outside of the loss of Ife, tt would not be so ‘badiy telt by the come apy.
