Popular Education In England

LONDON. June S0.-While the house of
commons was in committee on the public
education bill Right Hou Henry Harley
Fowler (LiberaD moved the insertion of a
clause in favor of local representation in
the control of the schools receiving the
grants. Fowler's motion had the approval
OF the Liberal leaders.
Right Hon. Joseph Chamberlain said that
popular control of denominational schools
would be resisted to the utmost. The
principle Of the bill was to give free educa-
ton without disturbing the status of the
schools. He admitted, however, that a case
was made out for greater control Of the
voluntary schools and that the time was
ripe for the managers to consider whether
popular control could not be introduced
without injury. Popular control of these
schools meant the establishment of school
boards in their place which would involve
the additional cost of $4,000, 900 per wear
which the country would not grant Under
FOwler's proposal, Chamberlain continued,
popular control would apply TO five-siXthS
of the church schools, but not to the IVES
leyan or Catholic schools. In conclusion
Chamberlain said that he earnestly wished
to see free education conferred upon the
country, but Fowler'S motion complicated
the government measure and he hoped il
would be rejected
Goschen declared that there was no proof
of the existence of religious oppression in
the voluntary schools and popular control
would fail 10 solve the difficulty of religious
Intolerance. which occurred occasionally.
He concluded by quoting from Glaistone's
speech to the effect that it would be folly
TO refuse the powerful aid to secular educa-
ton provided by religious zeal.
Fcwler's motion was rejected go to 166.

strating the great wealth ana financial
strength of this country. We have r.
lieved the greater countries of Europe from
their embarrassments and yet money here
is per cent on call and below the legal
rate on time. We do not need gold, because
in this country IL is reserve, financial
backlog; nobody wants it for circulating
currency. The export of gold Affects sem
timent more than it does active trade. In
the fail we will supply Europe with wheat
and for it Europe will rctura our gold.

Nearly everybody has provided for such an
emergency And we shall realize earlier
than usual from wheat exports. Wheat has
begun to move on our Kansas lines. Money

the stock market will advance, but whether
now or a little later do not know. There
is only light pressure of stocks, but there

NEW York, June 30.-The Post So. 5:
Another curious development in the ster-
ling exchange market to-day made au
abrupt change in the course of stock prices.
One Of the most important exchange houses
appeared unexpectedly in the mar
ket as large sellers of sight bills
This depressed sterling rates al
once, and will, in all probability,
prevent further export of gold this week,
especially as remittances for july interest
payments on the other side are row about
ended. This action of DreXel, Morgan y
Co. was not anticipated yesterday by the,
banking community because all negotiations
then pointed to a profit in buying ratn,i'
than selling exchange. With concessions
in rates these sales could not have been
made at profit, but the market IS held at
present quotations, or lower than for a
week The check 10 the outward gold
movement may not prove TO be permanent,
but the situation must continue to be reg
ulated in q large measure by the attitude OF
London and Continental bankers.

the total number of these schools In til
United States in 1889 was 293l, while
1890 the number was 2Q4l, a decrease
$50. This apparent decrease, it is 81
due to some extent to the increased Il

Special to the Gazette.
DUBLIN, ERATH COUNTY, TEX. June 3d.
This morning at about 80 the citizens of
Dublin were awakened by an alarm of fire.
The Trawick hotel was discovered in flames
and it was evident the entire block of store
buildings would go. IN the absence of
waterworks the fire department was power
less to check the flames. The parties suf-
fering are as follows:
a. j. Trawick, insurance on building,
$500; hotel fixtures and furniture, $500
household goods, piano, etc, $1,000.
Dublin drug company, insurance 5000, on
stock.
j. J. McLemore, insurance, two buildings,
$500
Woods & Shofner, saloon, no insurance,
but saved about all their stock and fixtures
The Dublin drug company perhaps sus-
tain the heaviest loss, not having sufficient
insurance. The balance of the property
was about covered.
Origin of the fire not known.

those writer's who have made him

treats of the golden era is too extrava-
giant in this direction. In all my per-

resources exhibited by him in attempt
ing mighty projects with nothing but
his courage and his brawny arms
to carry them out was phenom-

his sympathy active. knowing no dis
tinction of race. His sentiment that
Justice is sacred was never dulled. His
services were at command to settle
differences peaceably or with pistol In
