JERSEY ClIV BOARD OF EDUCATION.

There Is likely to be some trouble In the manage
men Of the Jersey City public schools consequent Oh
the squabblc OF the Board at the last meeting.
superintendent Chapman, who was elected
at the late charter election, is the first
man ever elected to that position In Jersey
City VINO devoted his time and attention eX-
cusi,ey 10 the schools, so that the position Is no
longer an honorary one. The position OF Assistant
superintendent Is, therefore, sine cure, yet
majority OF the Board net only decided to retain
the Assistant superintendent at a salary or
$4,000 year, but by very decisive vote declared
that he shall not be subject to whatever orders the
superintendent may see III TO give. The superlnien
dence OF schools VIII cost 5000, when the duties
are discharged by one officer receiving little over
half that amount. Mr. Miller protested against this
waste Of the public money, and Mr.. Rooney was IN
favor OF establishing h Oh school and placing 1t In
charge OF the Assistant superintendent, who Is
very efficient officer rather than have him enjoy
sinecure office at the expense OF the taxpayers. The
more Mayor 0Nel urges retrenchment the more
lavishly Is the money expended.

The Alabama Claims.

eWAsuNGToN, Sept. 27.--The status
OF the ALBANIA Claims correspondence
has received a little vitality, for so old a
question, by the outgivings ofthe friends
of the administration, that new and
vigorous policy in that particular is to
be inaugurated by Minister Morton.
Inquiry in proper quarters shows that
Motley has at intervals continued the
correspondence during the summer, and
has given it tenor more in accordance
with the views contained in Senator
Summers speech in the Uuited States
Senate, on the subject, than in the line
in which it was conducted last year.
Whether that has had anything to do
with his removal, isyet to be developed.
The claimants who suffered from depre-
dations By the "Alabama" and "Shenan-
doah,p have been pressing the Govern
ment lately to push the correspondence
to some conclusion; but it is no nearer a
solution than it was Immediately sue
ceeding the rejection of the Claren don
johnson protocol Indeed, the propo-
sition made last spring, to conduct the
negotiations in future at Washington,
has not been positively decided upon.
Minister Morton's commission has been
made out, and his instructions will
probably follow it some time next
month.

doubt what that decision would be. Bis.
marck would not listen to any PROPOSE
tons for an armistice. The second in
terview occurred at Ferrieres on the 18th
and on this occasion Bismarck seemed
to accept the idea. Of an afmistice
Favre asked for fifteen days. Next day
Bismarck handed Favre his conditions,
adding that the Germans must have
the forts commanding Paris, and more
especially Fort Mont Valoin on the
western border. Favre. replied it would
be more simple to demand Paris at
once.
Bismarck said that these terms were
not satisfactory, and that the French
must seek other arrangements. Favre
proposed a meeting Of the Constituent
Assembly at Tours. Bismarck made a
condition that the garrison at Strasburg
should surrender as prisoners Of war.
Upon Favre Indignantly refusing, Bis
marck consulted the King, who insisted
upon the surrender Of Strasburg.
Wearied with his useless efforts, Favre
retired, expressing his conviction that
France would fight TO the last. Favre
contends, from the mannerin which ali
his efforts for peace have been met by
the Germans, that they are determined
up the conquest. He says that his in
terviews were not altogether useless, as
they have proved that, Notwithstanding
Prussia declared that she warred only
