board TO Meet Tonight.
MUST NOT CLOSE THE SCHOOLS.
This Becoming n Common Cry-May
BE Brought Up I'm the Board.

he Brought Up I'm the Board.
There is a great deal OF talk among
members Of the Board Of Aldermen and
citizens generally of resolution being
offered In the board next Tuesday night.
making an appropriation sufficient to run
the schools of the city to the end OF the
fiscal year.
1t seems quite likely, in fact, that
this will be done, and in the event 1t is.
and the measure is passed. It is generally
believed that the matter will be con-
Cured In by the Common Council. SEN
tlment Is too strong against the closing
OF the schools. and their disorganization
for the matter to be allowed to rest
where il is. Since the Councils action
in refusing to make the appropriation
of 5000 for this purpose of carrying on
the schools in the usual manner there
has been great cry against the action
OF that branch. 1t will be remembered
that the vote on the proposition stood IL
ayes to 8 noes. Twenty ayes were ne
cessary to pass 1t. 1t was recorded
ballot, and was as follows:
AYES - Messrs Blanks, Bloomberg.
Briggs. Ebel, Gunst, Horace A. Haw-
kins, Hobson, CARRIER. Miller, Mosby.
Neale. Noble, Pollock. o. A. Hawkins,
Tanner, Whalen, and Woody-H.
Noes-Messrs. Cottrell Foster, Harrel-
son. Jones' King Rountree, Wake, Wal
lerstein, and President Caskie.-s.
In connection with this matter 1t has
been mentioned that the city this year
got S3s 900 back taxes from the Chesa-
peake and Ohio road, and 5000 from w.
p. Stokes's executors. in satisfying the
Judgment against the bondsmen OF the
late w. G. Adams.
Mayor Taylor, speaking Of the action
of the Council In rejecting this Tesolu-
tion. said yesterday:
1T would unbecome me as Mayor to
say one word. to give an opinion. or to
declare myself one way or the other, in
reference to the action OF the Council.
I do not think / am saying anything
wrong, however. when / say that / do
not think the schools should be closed.
/ can say this: If the appropriation had
passed the ink would not have been dry
on City-Clerk Ben. August's pen before
would have approved the resolution.

of Reelection.

NEW YORK. November 4.--The Evening
World prints the following telegram ad-
dressed to its editor:
"They tell me am sure OF reelection.
That Is all l know about it. II is an or
year, and. compared with elections tnat
usually follow presidential years in Ohio,
I think there is nothing TO complain OF.
"The weather was against the Repubii-
cans this year, and good times have MADE
them careless.
"I don't think the result has much Sig
nihcance as TO the money question.
don't see how the Democrats can reason
ably bring silver up as an issue In TINS
State again. They did not make an issue
of II this year. hardly think the money
question ought TO be considered as anect-
ed either way. The results all over the
country show II was an of year.

Judgment, the Camps could not last long. A

"The condition Of the Division one year ago
was good, and the percentage of loss among the
old Camps has been small. The new Camps
which are included to date, number Is. five of
which the former administration is responsible
for and five of which the next administration
will get credit for.
THE total membership in the II new Camps
mustered in by this ad nistration is 1893 and
the membership of the old Camps showed a net
loss up to Jan. of only 13 members. Should
