REPORT OF THE TREASURER AND COLLECTOR OF TAXES.


Total cash receipts for the year, including a balance


of $20,285.15 from the year 18901 . $1,556,529 62


Total cash disbursements . 1,519,522 59 .


Leaving in the treasury the sum of $37,007 03


In consequence of the failure of the Maverick National Bank, the sum of $135,246.44, which was on deposit at that time, was ren- dered unavailable for the payment of current expenses, and the city, availing itself of the accommodation offered by the National Security Bank to furnish all the money it required, was, at the end of the year, indebted to said bank to the amount of $101,520.33. To provide for the payment of this sum, city loan bonds, dated January 1, 1892, bearing interest at 4 per cent., amounting to $100,000.00, were issued, and will appear in the funded debt account of 1892. The sum of $1,223.53 on deposit in the Monument National Bank, and $1,957.39 in cash on hand, accounts for the balance of $37,007.03 in the treas- ury December 31, 1891.


A detailed statement of the public property, funded debt, and the receipts and disbursements of the various accounts will appear in the appendix.


Respectfully submitted,


JOHN F. COLE,


Treasurer.
