The meeting of the Board OF Education
adjourned from Thursday evening, was
held last evening in the rooms OF the Board

bers. About the most important matter
disposed of was in reference 70 the readers

RATHER SINGULAR FINANCIERNG
Strange Discoveries Made on Examin-
ing Q Spinning Company's AdairA

NEW YORK, Sept IA special to the Sun
from Providence says: The creditors OF the
Ponamah and Wauregan mills were treated to
an unpleasant surprise yesterday when the
committee appointed for the purpose revealed
the true inwardness Of the company's affairs.
It IL found that the stock was badly watered
and the creditors found but little to fasten
upon after the bubble had been pricked. Four
lines Of paper had been issued. The first,
the Wauregan mills, Endorsed by Edward II.
Taft as treasurer Of the Nottingham mills,
the second, that of the Nottingham mills, in
dorsed by Edward II. Taft as treasurer of the
Wauregan mills, the third, the Wauregan mills
secured by Edward h. Taft's pledge Of Wau-
regan stock, and the fourth, the Wauregan
mills notes, secured by Edward II. Taft
bore the pledge of the Ponamah mills stock.
The report by the investigating committee
was not very encouraging. The Indebtedness
Of the Wauregan mills, 81, 400 spindles, was
found to be 81, 101, 607. The estimate on the
quick assets was reduced S25, 200, making the
total quick assets, S341 1874 and leaving the
net debt Of the Wauregan mills S760, 4S4.
The debt Of the Nottingham mills, &c, 900
spindles, 10 s4oS, 216; reduced by quick assets
to 1854 ,2S5. The committee recommended an
extension for five years at 6 per cent in
terest. Ex-senator Chace cited the reason
why the committee recommended an extension.
He saw enough in the situation tc warrant him
in the assertion that questions of law could be
raised which, If taken into courts, would result
in prolonged and costly litigation.
A lively discussion ensued and it was evident
that all did not agree with Mr.. Chace. The
outlook is against an agreement to extend.

STORIES OF THE STORM.
Ocean Vessels That Weathered the Gale
Arriving In New York Today.

NEW YORK, Sept. 12-The weather prophet
here is out with the statement that by 6 o'clock
this evening New York will have seen the last
Of the storm. During the early hours Of the
morning the storm still held sway and measured
out the wind at the rate of twenty-four miles
an hour. At 2 o'clock this morning the
wind whistled about the Equitable building to
the tune Of 50 miles an hour. In shipping circles
all sorts of rumors were flying around Of
in this morning with tales Of high seas and
terrible weather.
OCEAN STEAMERS ARRIVING.
The White Star steamer Teutonic, which left
Queenstown with the City Of New York, was
one OF the first steamers to pass Sandy Hook
this morning, followed soon afterward by
the Pennland, from Antwerp; the Rot
terdam, from Rotterdam, and the Hammonia,
from Hamburg. Each vessel reports having
experienced unusually heavy weather, but had
met with no serious trouble. About 9 o'clock
the Roanoke and Richmond of the old Dominion
line arrived. They, too, had had their share of
rough weather, which was shown by their
smoke stacks and rigging. The Roanoke left
Norfolk last Monday night She was due
here at 10 o'clock Tuesday night. The
captain reports that while his YES
sci sustained no serious damage,
the trip was one of the toughest he had ever
experienced. From the time he left until his
arrival storm after storm was encountered with
but little recess between.
SOUGHT SAFETY IN aRAvRsEND BAY.
The Richmond, which should now be on her
way south, having started last Tuesday night,
put back. The storm was encountered of the
light ship about midnight Tuesday, and fear
full of venturing further to sea the
anchor was left down in Gravesend bay See
ing that the storm showed no sign Of abating,
and as the vessel was light, the captain turned
her nose back toward her dock. The weather
In the lower bay, the captain says. was I'M
precedentedly severe. The wind blew at q
terrific rate, while, strange to say, dense fog
enyeloped everything and made navigation
well nigh impossible. Gravesend bay, he
added, was covered with steamers and vessels
OF all kinds, waiting for the storm to subside
NO PILOTS.
No pilots could be obtained to bring up the
ocean steamers and their captains would not
venture inside without one.
No Communication With Sandy Hook.
NEW YORK, Sept Photographic commune
cation between this city and Sandy Hook is still
broken.
WASHED ASHORE AND DROWNED
New YORK, Sept. 1.-THE National line
steamer England from Liverpool. which arrived
today. reports that at midnight Tuesday ono of
the fremen was washed overheard and drowned.

From Wall Street Today.

New YoRK, Sept II, II a.m.-There was again
some hesitation at the opening of the stock
market this morning, and first prices as COM
pared with last evenings closing figures were
generally slightly lower, st. Paul showing q
loss Of u per cent. The weakness, however,
extended but little further and the market soon
recovered, prices generally being carried small
fractions above the opening figures. North
western and Missouri Pacific showed most
strength among the active shares, though the
former only rose % per cent and the latter n.
The most marked movement in the market was
in cotton oil, which, after . drop Of q to sou,
reacted to 621. The active stocks were Mis-
souri, Pacific, Cotton Oil, Atchison. Northwest
ern, Louisville and Nashville, and st. Paul, with
o well distributed business In the other leading
shares. The upward movement made but
small progress, and at II O'clock the market
was fairly active and barely steady, generally
at shade above the opening prices.
