THE COUNCIL INQUIRY.
Desperate Effort Making to Hnv
Council Meet Thursday

Desperate Effort Making to Have
Council Meet Thursday.
It is expected that a called meeting
of the Common Council will be held OF
Thursday night for the considerati ton OF
the Minor ordinance passed by the Board
of Aldermen providing for joint commit
tee to investigate the affairs of the Cit,
Council during the part of two years Il
is expected that President Bloomberg will
be asked to-day to issue the call for the
meeting.
All day yesterday an attempt was being
made to procure the signatu lures of three
of the members of the old Council, bll.
it was impossible to secure more than
two names to the call while the rules Of
the body require a petition signed BY
three members.
To-day, it is expected the third sigma
ture will be gotten to the request TO,
the call. and there will be nothing left
for President Bloomberg to do but issue
the call.
1t was pointed out last night that there
would have been no trouble in procurinc
the number Of signatures to a request for
a called meeting. but that it was desired
that the call should come from the ole
members. who are the ones to be affected
by the proposed Investigation.
ALDERMEN IN THE FIGHT.
If some of the members Of the Board
of Aldermen who on last Tuesday night
voted for the resolution can exert sufIi-
Gent influence with the members of the
Common Council to kill the measure
there is no doubt as to its future and il
unQuestionably will be killed.
Aldermen. who voted for the suspension
of the rules of the Board in order thai
the resolution might be taken up out OF
its turn, who voted for the adoption o.
the measure without reference to the
Finance Committee and upon the roll ca II
answered aye are now spending some
of their spare time lobbying for the de-
feat of the resolution in order to prevent
any further investigation.
