Total amount paid In premiums, $7,S32T0 (or a fi.ictlon over 2 per cent, on tho amount Inseted) for Ave' ears. The nmount that would be returned to the district, as per icports from the scv eial agencies submitted to the committee, and heieto attached, If cancelled July 1, 1SU7, $3,311.03. In view of tho fact that the entire num ber of policies have an nvctage time to run fiom July 1, 1897, of neaily thiee yenis, and as wo would iecelve but J3.311.03 If the same were to bo cancelled on the above mentioned date, and foi which we paid $7,832 70, ot an average of 1,560.2! per J ear, the majority bp'ng C-jear policies, we would therefoie lecommend that the same be allowed to continue until their explia tlon As an opinion prevails among several of the members that the district should es tablish an lnsuinnce fund of Its own, aftr cait'ful eonsldeiatlon of tho bubject, wo could arrive at no othei basis by which such a lesiilt could be accomplished than that which Is contained In the appended lesolution, which Is hereby submitted to the board and which wo would ask shall be held under advisement by the board for tlnal action at the next tegular meeting to bo held on the 22nd day of the month. We earnestly request each membei to give this matter cat etui attention In order that we may aiilve at a satisfactoiy solution of the pioblem at the next meeting. The following Is the resolution: That new buildings now being erected shall be lnsuied for no moie than 10 per cent, of their actual cost; that when such buildings shall bo lnsuied, the term of the policy shnll not exceed the longest term policy now In existenco nnd at 40 per cent, of tho cost of the building; that as these sevetal policies expiiu they be renewed only until tho time of expliatlon of tho longest teim policy now In exist ence, with tho intention that when they expire they be not renewed; that an amount bo set aside each year to the ex tent of $2,000 as a. nucleus foi a reset ve In sutance fund.

The leport was signed by Messrs. Jennings, Notz and Casey, the foimer pieser.tlng it and debating for its adop tion. Mr. Jennings explained that tho com mittee had found the Insurance piob lem d hnid one to adjust without the aid of expert counsel, but rather than do nothing and at the same time guard CONTROLLER WALSH, Of the Twelfth Ward. against blundering haste tho commit tee majority had lilt upon the sugges tions embodied In the repoit. The plan ho said, Indicated a certain tetrench ment and outlined a policy which If not finally appioved would at least servo to get tho question in tangible foim and afford opportunity for Investiga tion befoie the next meeting. Thu te poit provided for Insuring buildings now being elected, nnd that kind of In surance he would always advocate, as the liability In such cases was very pionounced. A contrary view was advanced by Mr. Gibbons who continued his argu ments offered at iccent meetings and which W4)re In decided opposition to ear ly lug any Insurance. Tho very fact that tho premiums jepresented a low rate was, lie said, un evidence that the I I) YrCdfi !f Wff risks were what Insurance men called good. If the thirty odd buildings weie Mithoied together In one block then theto would bo leitson and liuslncns In cntrylng Insurance. There wna no ex cuse for tt leseivu fund, ho continued, as the bouid vyoultl gain nothing by laying aside money which could ba lnlsed In the usual way If needed. Mr. Wormser took occasion to remark upon tho unbusinesslike leasonlng, ns he termed It, of the non-lnsuiance Idea. He would light any such proposition to the bitter end. Mr. Jennings pleasantly intimated to Piesldent Sclnlofer that the debating was out ot order and the latter, realiz ing tho justness of the observation, put tho iiuestion of adopting tho tepoit nnd it was carried unanimously. SCHOOL, DISTRICT MAPS. Superintendent Howell wns summon ed fiom his ofllee to explain his object In asking (thtough Mr. Barker) pel mis sion to luivo maps made which will show the teappoilionment ot tho rlty school districts. He said thu district boundaries would be made aeconllng to the school population and established Independent of vvard lines, At present It Is Impossible In many cases to tell whether a pupil liom a given nddtess Is attending the ptoper school. Kjc.1i school will be lutnlahed with u map of Its district and by means of which the principal can tell if a student should attend that or another school. The ltquest of the superintendent was unanimously gi anted. A repoit of the building committee vvus adopted as follows: No. 1C school building having been com pleted In accoidanco with the plans and specifications of the aichltect, and a cer tificate having been lllcd In tho ofllco of the secretary by Building Inspector Nel son In accordance with lesolution adopted at the last meeting of tho bom il, we lec ommend the llnal acceptance ot the build ing and payment of $4,000 to Petei Stlpp, the eonti actor, upon certlllcate of the ar chitect. We recommend thnt the balance of $2,500 due on the lots purchased ot Mrs. Phillips adjoining No. 10 be paid and that the sec retuty Is directed to diaw an orrleifoi the amount, and tho attorney of the board to secuto deed and place it on recoid.
