THE MAYOR BAYS HE WILL DIRECT THE COR
PoRATION COUNSEL. TO ASK THE LEdIs-
LATURE FOR THAT SUM
Mayor wurster said yesterday that he would IN
struct Corporation Counsel Burr to draft bill for
presentation to the Legislature authorizing tho sac
Of bonds amounting s2ooo0co for the purchase OF
sites and construction OF school buildings in 1897 and
1898. His Honor explained tina; II the Board OF As
SCISSORS was compelled all tho property OF
the city at Its full value instead Of at 70 per cent OF
its value at present the 10 cent limit for IN
debtedness would be extended as TO mako the issue
OF bonds possible. The schools and the East River
Bridge he thinks should receive every cent OF money
that can be spared by the city Other Improvements
should stand until these were provided for.
This decision Of the Mayor toward school bonds
was drawn out by a letter from President Swan
strom Of the Board Of Education In which hs in
part
that Notwithstanding the addition OF l0.si new
stings in 1885, Ind 1883 stlDgs in 1896 there
1s7 classes and ll.4sl pupils half time. while ss!
children have been refused admission for lack o..
room BY adding the number OF children refused
admission to half the number OF children on half time
We get approximately the number or children lor
whom accommodations are needed at once-s.to.
School accommodations are more inadequate AZ the
close OF this than they were AZ the close or 1870
one hundred and ninety -four additional cassroors
are needed at provide for the children who are
either excluded from school or receive inaaeaua.e
accommodation The normal Increase IN the number
OF registered pupils is about 5000 per annuIn l
therefore respectfully request you 70 secure egsla-
ton Authorizing the sale OF bonds amounting 70
So 900 600 for the purchase OF sites and erection OF
