INCREASED SCHOOL TAX LEVY AFTER >H( II DISCUSSIOM THE COMMISSIONERS DECLARE IT NECESSARY. BISHOP WHIPPIiE IN THE PULPIT. Venerable Prelate Officiate* al St-rv iri-s at St. Harlc'a — Mlnneap cflia MatterH, The city charter commission dropped charter making Cor a little while last night and sat in jddgment upon the ac tions of the board uf education. At its meeting prior to that hold last night, the commission voted to invite tho at i, ndance at its next meeting of repre si ntatives of th( board of education, that they may advise with them in re gard to the proposition to increase the maximum tax levy for school purposes from four to five mills. Jn response to this invitation Directors Peavey, Pratt and Gjertsen and Secretary Marchbank were present at the meeting. Upon motion of Commissioner i'ills bury the commission expressed a will ingness to hear from the representa tives of the board of education. Di rector Peavey thanked the commission for its courtesy. He believed that it was in the minds of the commission ers, when they had asked the members of the school boaid to be present, that they had full power to llx the tax levy for school purposes. I!' read a 1< tti r from City Attorney Healey, who ex pressed i. as ills opinion that the new city charter could not provide for mat ters pertaining t<> the In. aid of educa tion, as the managemenl of the schools had no connection with the city gov ernment. This fact, however, Mr. Peavey said. did ln.t pr< vent him from giving the commission some idea ol the finances of the board. The school expenses this year would be between $7^."».ooo and $730,000. The income to provide tor these expenses, ii' the board were ac coided the four mill tax, would I>< about (685,000. The question for the board to determine was how it could p.iy the $730,C0J with the $685,000. Prior to the session of the lasi legislature the board could borrow th<' full amount •if money to be derived from the tax levy. 'I his year, however, it can bor row but half on accouni of the law passed a- the last legislature which makes part <>f th<' taxes payable in June and part in November. A law enacttd in 1878 provides that the board can borrow such sum only as can i» repaid by July 1. This leaves the board in a position it has never before tx perienced. "This," said Mr. Peavey, "will make a difference of $200,000, which we will have to provide for or close ih > schools and wait until Nov< mber. We have recently asked the city council to is sue the remaining $100,000 of the $200. --000 bond issue authorized by th<- peo ple at the last election. This amount we will either have to use toward maintaining the schools we have at present or close them. Do the citi zens of Minneapolis want this money put into school buildings and have all the schools closed, or do they want the schools they have already to re main open? For one. if it becomes necessary to use a part of this $100,000, and it will. I will vote to use for cur rent expenses, in order to keep the schools open." Commissioner Pillsbury believed with Mr. Peavey. He thought the schools should remain open, and he thought the great majority of the citizens of Minneapolis would wish it so. Commissioner Cohen, however, was of a different mind. He thought that it would be a very unwise act to use the funds voted by the people 'or building purposes for anything else. Such a move would hurt the city more than the closing of the s« hools, and ho was surprised that such a man as Mr. Peavey would sanction such action. "This particular trust should be car ried out," said Mr. Cohen, "ft is a money impressed with distinct trust that cannot be violate d. The city coun cil should not let this money go out of its hands, if it is Intended for any other purpose than that for which the people voted it." After the matter lad been discussed from all standpoints, Commissioner Davenport's motion raising the tax levy for school purpos s from four mill? to five mills, was taken under discus sion. The commission was not quite sure that it had jurisdiction in the matter, but as the motion was simply ;in expression of the sentiment of the board it was adopted. On motion of Commissioner Atwater it was decided to go ahead with the work of drawing up the chapters of the charter relating to the school boards, and other boards created by special acts of the legislature. ( >n motion of Commissioner Daven port, section one of the charter w;is read and approved. Chapter two was referred to the drafting committee and made a special order of business at next Monday'^ meeting. Upon motion of Commissioner Childs the meetings of the board will hereaft er I c called at 7:30 instead of 8 an here tofore. The committee on resolutions for the new charter for the city of Minne apolis, held a conference last evening at the oflice of the committee's chair man, P. T. Johnson, in which promi nent city officials offered suggestions as to the neccessities of the city's re quirements in the construction of the new charter. The general sentiment of the meeting was enthusiastic in pro claiming that the new charter would contain no compromises to meet cor rupt factions of the adherents of the old charter. They stood firm to the principle of constructing a pure and as perfect charter as possible that would be irresistible to the voters of the city. BISHOP WHIPPLE AT ST. MARK'S. Head ni' (he Church In Minnesota Talks to Episcopalians. The venprablp Bishop Whipple preached tho sermon at St. Mark's church last evening on th& occasion of All Saint« day. The -e vered preacher spoke tenderly and earnestly upon the beautiful suggestions and associa tions of the day. and his words were full of loving faith in the security of the future and in the happiness of the departed. "There is no day of the year when the church shows to her children more of the mother-heart than upon this day, vhen f=he gathers all her rhildren together and remem bers them alike, those who have quit for ever the scenes of the strife and now live in peace, and those who still stand in the midst of the battle. Today we call the roll of the nast, and point the -pictures that memory throws upon the heart, and what a vast trooping company they are. Tonight when we who have loved and lost come together to think of our departed, let us thank God for the certainty of life and love beyond the grave.

North Siders Petition for Scandi navian Book*. At the library board meeting yesterday aft ernoon a petition was presented requesting the use of the rooms on the second and third floors of the library building In which to give a reception to Mr. Nansen, who will visit Minneapolis Nov. 19.

Dr. Hosmer, the librarian, stated that there were 1,000 books in the Scandinavian lan guages at the South Side library, where the greatest call for them had been. He was instructed to have part of them removed to tho North Side library. A proposition was presented by A. M. Goodrich covering the purchase by the board of a Mergenthaler linotype machine, suitable for preparing the finding lists of the library. Mr. Goodrich desires to acquire the niahinu from the board within a certain time by do- Ing the work required as payment for the ' machine, lie will pay 6 per cent Interest on | the value, besides having it insured with i loss payable to the board, and will give a | bond for the performance of his part of the ■ rontraet.
