NIGHTS MEETING.
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

nights meeting of the city council, the

The resolution was introduced by
Alderman C. j. Lee. who claimed that

of the city's financial affairs the reduc-
tion was necessary. When the resolu-
ton was first offered, it was referred
to the ordinance committee, who re-

the amount. at $4,000.
Mr.. Lees amendment to the report
was then made and was carried.

council in favor Of retaining the pres
ent appropriation, that unless $4,000 is
secured for the library, it will be nee
essary to close the building during
considerable portion of the year, and
deprive the public of its use. On the
other hand, other members of the
council said today that if properly
conducted, the buildings expenses in
Guiding the salary Of a librarian for as
much time as was needed, could be
kept within the amount of the origi-
nal appropriation.

passed, but outside of this the council
