COUNCIL TO HOLD
SPECIAL SESSION
Will Pass Tonight on Minor
Amendment to Bond Issue
Ordinance.

President r. T.. Peters. of the COM
mon Council, issued II call yesterday
afternoon for a meeting OF the lower
branch at o'clock Tonight for the
purpose of considering an ordinance
proposing AN amendment to the ordi-
nance under which the city recently
issued sl.500,0O0 I'm bonds.
The change is made necessary by OBJ
jections raised by attorneys for the
Boston bankers, who took over the
entire bond issue. to the provision OF
the ordinance which appropriates $40
600 OF the proceeds Of the bond sale
Tor the construction of the First Regi-
ncnt Armory. 1t appears that the APP
preparation Of municipal moneys for
military purposes has been held to be
invalid in several States, and in order
to eliminate all possibility Of con-
tost on this score in connection with
the Richmond bond issue, tho city IS
requested to strike this item from the
ordinance
In accordance with this request an
amendment has been prepared which
transfers the armory appropriation to
the account of sewers The change is
technical and Will In no wise affect
provisions that have already been
made for either the armory or for
sewers.
The amendment is regarded as ur-
been called in special session for to-
night To dispose of it,
Immediately following the session of
the Common Council the Finance Com
mittee Will hold Il short business meet
inS. call Issued early in the day
yesterday by President w H. Adams,
OF the Board of Aldermen, for a meet
ing at 7:tj o'clock on Monday night,
was later In the afternoon withdrawn.
II was tho purpose of the Board to
consider the ordinance recently passed
by the Common Council relating to an
other minor change In the bond Issue
requirements. but the consideration OF
the matter viii be deferred until the
regular meeting OF the Board week
from Tuesday.
II was pointed out by City Auditor
crenshaw yesterday that the objections
raised by the attorneys for the Boston
bankers, who took over the bond issue
are not real. since the city is express
~ given the right by It's charter to
make appropriations for military pur-
poses. The amendment will. ncverthe-
less. be asked for as Il precautionary
measure.
