ACTION OF THE CoLoRED SCHOOL TRUSTEES
LAST NIGHT.
A special meeting of the board of trustees of
coOTed schools was held last night to consider a
report from the building committee recommend
ing repairs To certain school structures. The
committee was authorized to make the repairs
alluded TO.
MI. Lewis then read
SERIES OF RESOLUTIONS,
declaring that every member OF the board in
dignantly spurEs as false any allegation of in
gratitude or hostility towards Senator Summer.
whether covert OF aVOwed; that even if doubts
had not existed as to the legality of the late
boards proceedings IN this matter, the existing
financial condition of the schools imperatiyelv
demanded their reconsideration by the present
board; that any steps having for their object "A
manifestation of honor and respect towards
Senator Sumner, without necessitating viola
ton of duties under the law, will meet with the
hearty approval and concurrence of the board
and, as proof of their sincerity in this matter.
tley pledge themselves to initiate and carry out
plan that VIII secure, as "A decoration for the
Sumner school building, such portrait of the
stat esman whom every colored man, woman
and child IN the land delights to honor, as was
originally contemplated, and that, too, without
having recourse to the funds iHtrusted to their
keeping solely for educational purposes; and
further, that committee of three members be
appointed to realize this plan at the earliest
practicable moment.
After speeches complimentary to Mr. Sumner
by every member of the board the resolutions
were unanimously adopted.
The resignation OF Miss Charlotte l.. Porter.
a teacher i'll tie preparatory high school, was
accepted.
OPINION or DISTRICT ATTORNEY COOK ON THE
SUMNER APPROPRIATION.
The Chair stated that as the question had been
raised a. to the legality of repeating an act of
the former board, he had through the Governor
requested the opinion of the attorney OF the
District OF Columbia on this point.
Mr.. VIM. A. Cook, attorney for the District,
saws in his opinion that the trustees of colored
schools cannot expend any part OF the money
apnTODTldfpd IpySlariyn
cept for educational purposes, without violating
the act of Congress creating the present gov
eminent of the District, and the act OF the
Legislative Assembly making the appropriate
ton. He further says that its use for any other
object, however mertoriOus or laudable would
be entirely unjustifable, and that il was there
fore, mistake on the part of the old board to
attempt TO apply five hundred dollars OF the
school funds for portrait of Hon. Charles
Sumner, and the present board acted wisely in
promptly correcting the error.
