The New school Building.

Editor StGr:-Shali the new school building be
erected in the second or in the third school di-
vision? This is the question to be decided on
Friday night by the trustees:
Apparently, 1t was decided last year-for we
find on page 43, OF the recent annual report a
recommendation by the committee on buildings
and repairs that efforts should be made to OBJ
tain ~ 1unds for the "in,ediate erection Of at
ion. Nothing whatever is said about the third,
the committee evidently being unaware of any
pressing necessity for more school buildings In
sonably be presumed that the committee did
not imagine that the third division. already
Mccormick, the Cranch and the Odd Fellows,
would think of taking the next new building
from the second division, which has double its
population and only t,ro school buildings owned
by the DStrfct-the Abbott and the Seaton.
The present comparative condition of the
two divisions demonstrates the duty of the
trustees. The number of children In rented
ana unsuitable rooms Is about 500 In the third
division, and over 1900 in the second.
The amount CT annual rents for school-rooms
paid out in the second division quadruples that
in the third.
The comparative condition of the two dlvl-
sions may be tabulated as follows:
population. about s ss.ss5 g gs,sss
school buildings owned by D. C.
Rooms owned ............. 10 26
Rooms rented. Observation-Disclosures. 81 Is
The only argument used by the advocates of
the third division, which seems to have weight,
is that the District owns, on the corner OF 5th
street and stanton Square, a lot which Will
make coed site. But an obvious answer is,
the lot IS only "a feet deep. and the proposed
new building is 102 feet long. If it is proposed
to buy adjoining lots, it would be wise to ascer-
tain the prices Of them before deciding to buy
them 1t is altogether probable that a site can
be bought in the second division at as low cost
as the adjoining lots 10 the third.
The population of the second division Is in-
creasng so rapidly as to make the location of
the new building within its limits an urgent
necessity. This year, there are 80 wretcned
school-rooms; next year, there must be at least
45, unless the new building be erected there.
Capitol Hill can afford to wait. SECOND

BELMONT COUNTY.
The Nationals and Soldiers Solid
for Rice and Ewing.

ST. CLAIRsEILLE, o., August 6.-The
Greenback or National party in this
county is weakening. The leader OF
that party, Mr.. George w. Scott, OF Bel
laire, has gone over TO the Democrats,
and mas taken with him a large number
of the Nationals.
The greatest number OF the National
votes on the State and Congressional
ticket last year were cast in Pultney,
Pease and York townships.
Mr.. J. III. Darrah, Of Bellaire-The
party is losing strength in this county,
and am confident that not more than
one-hith OF the former vote will be cast
at the fall election. Those who do not
stick to their party will, i'll this county,
90 back to where they came from. But
let me remind you OF one thing, Mr.. Re-
porter, the German vote in this city will
mostly go solid for Ewing and Rice,
although the correspondent OF the OHIO
STATE Journal wants TO make the Repub-
lican party think differently. And,
more, have heard Republican soldiers
say they could not 90 back on Ewing"
Reporter---But the Nationals are the
ones we inquire after, Mr.. Darrah.
"They, as a party, will, | apprehend,
60 solid for Ewing and Rice in this town
ship, and, | might say, all over the
county"

RAILWAY LITIGATION,
ImDOrtant Case Decided.

New YORK, August 6.-Judge Har-
Ian, of the United States Supreme Court,
TODAY rendered a decision in the suit in
equity brought by the c. c. x !. G..
Railway Company against the Pitts
burgh, Cincinnati and st. Louis railway
and the Pennsylvania railroad. The
points OF the decision are:
|. That the lessees are not obligated
to classify and adjust their indebted
ness in the manner insisted upon
by the lessees in the recent argument
at Chicago, that is to say: by re-
ducing the aggregate Indebtedness
to Sl5, ,S2l 900, and funding in the bonds
secured under consolidated mortgages
to Roosevelt 4 Fosdyck, such of the
Sl5, ,S2l 900 other than the $4,000 OF
the Columbus and Indianapolis second
motgagc bonds as now consist of section
al bonds, but it is sufficient for the
lesSees 10 reduce to reduce the aggre-
gate Indebtedness to Sl5,S2l 900, which
may consist OF either consolidated or
sectional bonds.
>. That the c., c. q |. C. Railway
Company must actually accomplish
a reduction OF Indebtedness to Sl5, ,S2l, :
600 before they will be entitled to a de-
cree against the Pittsburgh, Cincinnati
and 1t. Louis railroad company and the
PENNSYLVANIA railroad company, for the
payment of back rental due under the
lease; that upon completing such re-
duction OF indebteded they may apply
to the court for such decree, but will not
be entitled to the interest upon arrears
of rent, except from the time when they
shall have performed the condition Of
reducing this indebtedness as above.
