BOARD OF HEALTH NOW HAS
WHEREWITHAL.
Council of state, by Vote of Nine to
Three, Looses Purse Strings on $40,
900.

The Council of state, President Dole
in the chair, met at 2 o'clock yesterday
afternoon to appropriate money for use
of the Board of Health in combating
the plague. Present were Ministers
MOtt-Smith, Damon and Young, Secre-
tary c. Bolte, Paul Isenberg, John Ena,
w. G. Achi, John Mott, A. G.. M. Rob
Robinson, S. K. Kane, Cecil Brown,
M. A. Gonsalves and ]. A. Kennedy.
Minister Damon read the three COM
munications from the Board of Health,
previously mentioned, asking for sums
of money for the suppression of plague.
The Minister also read the resolution OF
the Executive Council approx
ing the appropriation of 1910, OO0
With respect to the additional sum, for
filtration plant, etc, it was thought best
to refer same to Washington govern
ment with request for permission to
proceed.
President Dole stated that President
McKinley's powers were absolute; that
the local government was merely act
ing for him; and that several items not
demanding immediate attention had
been withheld to be submitted to Mr.
Mckinley.
Mr.. Robertson thought the matter of
appropriating money was an important
charge. A committee should investigate
be expended. He moved that the resolu-
ton be sent to a committee. Seconded
by Mr.. Brown.
Mr. Damon urged the immediate an
preparation.
Mr. Jones made speech urging that
there be no delay. There should be no
hesitation said he. The community de-
manded action. Mr.. Ena seconded the
motion and urged prompt action.
Mr.. Isenberg strongly supported the
motion to pass Immediately. Mr. Young
said he favored a committee, but was
afraid it would hamper the work of the
Board. Besides it would be impossible
for a committee to ascertain anything.
The work was all in the future and no
estimate of it or its cost could possibly
be made at this time. The Board or
Health was to be trusted.
Mr.. Jones said he was at a meeting
yesterday in which it was urged that
those present guarantee S1,000,000 to
stamp out the plague. An argument in
favor of this guarantee was that 1T
would strengthen the hands of the
Board of Health and encourage the
community. With ample money in sight
there would be little fear. The whole
community was looking to the CouncrT
of State to do something, and thar
something should be done at once.
The vote to approve the appropriation
of 500. 900 resulted as follows: Aye
Kennedy, Robinson, Kane, Jones,
Mott, Achi. Ena, Isenberg and Gonsal-
yes; No-Brown, Robertson and Gear.

THEY WISH TO HONOR MRS. STEVENS.

Club women of Chicago are putting forth their
best energies to name the parental school soon TO
be built by the Board of Education after Mrs Al
zna P. Stevens, who died a few weeks ago. For
more than two years Mrs. Stevens worked assid-
uously TO have the bill pass the Legislature and
finally succeeded. After her return TO Chicago
Mrs Stevens worked with the Board of Education
to secure appropriation for the erection of the
school. All along she had great obstacles TO en-
counter but she Overcame them, and now the
money is ready. The site is chosen and the prtn-
cipal selected, but Mrs. Stevens could not live
to see the contamination of her plans the club
women urge that she certainly should be honored
bv the city.
