Corporations; provided IL does not extend west
of a hue parallel with sixth street west. and
two hundred and fifteen and five. twelfths feet
eastward thereof, and ON no other part of said
square purchased by the Corporation for mar

dating some fve hundred pupils. There was
manifest improperly in bringing the scenes OF
a police station directly among these children;
and he urged that the propinauity Of school,
house aud station.house would be mutually
disadvantageous 1t would be best to locate

on-houses be respectfully requested to sus-
pend the erection OF the building in the Seventh
Ward until report be made on the subject by
