Garrett County Schools Closed.

Especial Dispatch to the Baltimore SUM-
CUMBERLAND, Md, Jan. 19.-The
public schools of Garrett county clos
ed last Friday, and will probably not
reopen before next September. When
the new school board of the county
took charge few days ago. they dis.
covered a debt created by their pred
ecessors in office, which leaves mat
tiers in curious shape. The official
statement of the retiring treasurer.
Mr.. Ludwig, shows that the actual
Indebtedness January 1, 1886, was
something over eleven thousand FIVE
hundred dollars, and after allowance
is made for amounts due the board
from the county, State and other
sources, there is still balance of over
$1,000 Indebtedness unprovided for.
A local law of Garrett county, passed
in 1884. when the retiring board went
in, provided for the funding of the
then existing debt, and prescribed
that the board should not create an.
other debt for which the people of
the county should be liable. The
debt has been made, however, and
the new board say that their only
way out was to shut down expenses
by closing the schools until they can
catch up, as it were, by outstanding
the revenues. The greater portion of
the debt is for the pay of teachers dur
ing the fall term of last year, the bal
ance being in notes. The schools
have only run few weeks under the
new board. DIR. E. H. Bartlett, the
newly-elected secretary. treasurer
and examiner, is getting everything
into shape to make full exhibit to
the board when they meet next week.
He says that in addition to the debt
named there are a number of old out
standing due.bills of teachers not
taken up when the debt was funded,
amounting to at least three thousand
dollars. He says the board will prob
ably make some arrangement to pro-
vide for the debt until the end of the
fiscal year in January, by which time
the prospective revenues will, it is
thought, discharge a greater part Of
it. To do this the board will have, it
is presumed, to make themselves per-
sonally responsible for the debt for
the time being.
There is talk of providing for the
three thousand dollars of teachers
due-bills by the issue of more bonds,
an act of Legislature being necessary

Sudden Death Of Miss BaYard.
