 voting for the passage of the resolution
 and for the violation of the charter
 Alderman Chillingworth: T beg your
 pardon, your honor. but those voting
 aye will be voting to adopt the recom-

 Ayes-Carrington, Clarke, Brennan Corcoran, Coolohan, Ryan, Forsyth Unger, Chillingworth Stuart, Petrie
 Toole, Compton-13.

 President Lambert asked the clerk to vote his objection to the action taken passed. As this announcement was made, AL derman Pickett rose and said The resolution has not been passed. The
 last paragraph of section 46 of the char ter reads as follows: No amount ap- propriated for any one purpose, whether general or special, shall be used or ap- propriated for any other purpose except the same be recommended by the board of finance and approved by a five sixths vote of each branch of the court | of common council
 l Last fall the court of common coun- 1 cil appropriated $500 to pay for the | hardening of Arch street Of this amount s97.50 has been spent. This
 resolution provides that 's4025O or | more shall be spent on Arch street. This | is in excess of the appropriation and as this excess has not been recommended | by the board of finance, your honor is | in error in declaring that the resolution l has passed"
 President Lambert stated that the point of order was well taken and that 1 the resolution had not passed. Alderman Chillingworth: "The gen. | tleman would be right if he had quoted 1 the charter right. The resolution and
 order adopted by this board do not appropriate one dollar. They simply pro- vide for the use of money already ap- propriated. They do not provide for the use of more money than was appro- | priated''
