 Pending Before Council.

For a discussion of various measures now pending before the City Council the COAncii's Committee on Schools will meet at s;30 o'clock Monday night with the members of the Board of Education.
 Several resolutions and ordinances are to be considered.
 One that ts expected to have a par ticuiaFly careful investigation ig the resolution Of Alderman Moritz conteni- plating the establishment of public night schools. The matter has had consideration of the Council and has been reported favorably by a commit tee with an amendment of the original, however. The resolution at first an- ticipated a maximum of expense of 3B 900 and by the amendment that amount was reduced to 33.00O.
 Measures introduced for the pur- chase Of play grounds for scnooi cntf- dren will also be talked over. and the crowded condition of schools, upon which George w. Jones. chairman Of the Boards Building Committee, re- gently submitted report to the Coun- cil, win be taken under advisement. In his report Mir. Jones expressed hope that the board. by utilizing space in the auditorium of the Girls High school, would afford some relief in the schools for white children. To abate the congestion in schools for negroes, he reported. the board saw no other remedy than to congtruct other schools.
 Other matters will have the consider alton of the aldermen and athe mem mers of the board.
