by associated 7ress.1

CHICAGO, Sept. IA special
election is being held here today for
the purpose of determining whether
or i OF the new charter granted to
The City of Chicago at the last ses-
sion of the Legislature should be
adopted. For many years Chicago
labored under the disadvantage of
an Inadequate system of raising rev.
snue, the present charter being
adapted TO a city not over fourth
the size of Chicago at the present.
There is great opposition to the
adoption of the charter, chiefly be-
cause of possibility of increased
taxes. Early in the day the vote
appeared to be going against the
adoption of Fhe charter.
