CAMPBELL Cashier PLANS PRESENTED FOR TWO SCHOOLS Aldermen to Hasten Appropria? tions Before This Council Goes Out of Office. At a special meeting of the Board of Aldermen last night a. report from the Comm'.tteo on Finance was received and tabled under the rules, appro? priating $110,000 for a new school building on the Van J.ew property at Twenty-third and Grace Streets on plans prepared by Carnea'. &. John? ston, and appropriating JSO.oOO for a new Sidney School building in thft Bouihwestern section of the city, on plans drawn by Churlcs M. Roblnr-on. In the latter case the bid of the Wise Granite Company was accepted. In the former, new bids are to be Invited Since the appropriations o; this mag? nitude could not ho passed the nigh', of their Introduction, both papers were tabled. It Is anticipated that another special meeting will be call? ed to act on both papers ntxt Monday nlgnt. after wh'ch they will go to the Cdmmon Council for concurrent ac? tion, this method being adopted to pre? vent the papers from being killed with the outgoing of this Council. The res? olutions authorize the Committee on Finance to make temporary loans to provide for botli schools, the general fund to be later reimbursed by bond Issue. As originally reported by the Com ' m'.ttee on Finance the plans for new ' Sidney School would have had to go ' Lack to the School Board for revision, i which would have prevented their ap? proval by this Council. Subchalrman Barton H. Grtindy presented a substl ; tute report limiting the coat of the ; building to 180,000, which met the ' views of the Committee on Finance, and obviated tne difficulty. < oat let I? Killed.
