No money demand against the City shall be paid until audited and allowed by the City Council, and before so audited and allowed, no order shall be drawn upon the Treasurer thereof. The demands shall be made out in items and be signed by the claimant that the claim is just and correct, and that no part of it has been paid. The City Clerk-Treasurer shall endorse thereon the word “disallowed” if such be the fact, or “allowed in the sum of $________” if approved in whole or in part, specifying the latter case, the items rejected. The accounts shall be filed with the City Clerk-Treasurer and consecutively numbered throughout the year. Each claim allowed shall also bear the number of the order drawn for its payment.
