HOW the Scarcity of Currency Plays Hob
With Educational Affairs.
The school board met in regular ses-
sion last night. Mrs. Ladd, Mrs. Tracy
and Mr.. Hanks we're absent.
The clerk announced that Frank A.
Robbins, the lowest bidder to complete
the West side building, had notified him
that he could not make arrangements
to take his pay in warrants, and the
CLERK was ordered to notify the other
bidders to submit new bids, the black
board to be common lath and plaster
one, the bidders to be able to furnish
500 bonds, and to take their pay in war
rants on the general fund.
The clerk was instructed to confer
with Goss & Collins and il they had not
ordered the material for the north side
plumbing to notify them that they
would not be awarded the contract as
the board wants to hasten repairs.
The building committee was author
lied to examine applications for the posi-
tion of ianitor and make Recommendation
to the board. 1t was the expressed sense
of all members present that married
men who have an engineers license
should have the preference.
A large Lumber of orders having been
made last year without the sanction of
the board, and wishing to guard against
the same error this year, the clerk was
instructed to have prepared requisition
blanks. which should be filled out and
submitted TO the board.

HELENA, Aug l5.--The state board CT
equalization has decided to make GO
changes in the calues on zeal estate as
returned by the proper authorities Of the
varioIs counties of Monte1a.
II there were any inequalities between
the different counties, as there seemed
to be, it was impossible fer the board TO
tell it from the returns made. Had the
boar& entered on the work of equsliza-
ton between the counties, it would have
been pecessary to equaliIe some up and
others down. That was found to be I'M
desirable, as such course would cripple
some counties for purposes Of revenue,
and 1T the sgme time would have re-
duced the revenues of the state below
what are needed. There was some dis
position on the part OF the board to cut
values in some cases srd raise them in
others, but in the absence of the requir-
ed data on wkich to work. it was decid-
ed best to let the county authorities be
the judges Of the value Gf the rea! estate
in their own counties.
The assessment of railroads for state
purposes amount to S9.A13,3j5. of which

ALL WANT TO TALK.
How the Days Of Debate Will Be Con.
sumed by Ambitious
Orators.
Silver Men Confident that the Good
Cause Is Sailing on to
Victory.

A WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-Congress has
settled down to debate with degree of
! Expedition almost unknown in it's history
and with the apparent determination to
do something. Fortunately for the ma
ljority in the senate, the action of the
house on the silver question has relieved
Them from the necessity of speedy and
perhaps ill.advised legislation. The
Democratic caucus committee charged
with the preparation Of plan that
should secure the adherence of the
|united majority, will therefore commence
8ts labors with more deliberation
than would otherwise have been posi-
Die, and it is not expected now that
*they will perfect their work much be-
&fore the house has acted. The finance
fcommittee will probably wait upon the
Faction of the caucus committee, and SO
tthe silver question is not likely to figure
Mn a formal way in the proceedings Of
Nthe senate this week. 1t is entirely pos
Geible, and even probable, that speeches
Twill be delivered upon the subject but
Sif 80 they will be based upon some such
kresolution as that introduced by Senator
tLodgc, calling for vote upon the re-
fpeal of the silver purchase section of the
SHERMAN act, and not upon bill reg
Sularly reported from the finance com
mittee and ready for immediate action.
The programme of the house has been
definitely fixed by the adoption of the
order introduced Friday last by Repre-
Asentative Bland, the time to be devoted
Exclusively to the consideration of tine
silver question under the rules of the
last house governing general debate.
Notwithstanding the apparent lack of
sinterest in the discussion manifested by
y the members on Saturday, the number
4 Of applications for recognition already
on thespeaker's list, demonstrates that
the period allotted TO debate, eleven
days under the general rules and three
days under the five minute rule. will he
all occupied. There are now between
ninety and hundred names enrolled by
the speaker. the great majority of whom
expect to talk the full hour allowed by
the rule. IL it appears that the time for
debate is too short to accommodate all
who wish t. speak, night sessions will
be held to lengthen the period but this
expedient, il is believed, will not become
necessary before next week, with ex-
piration of which debate will close

1t Fetches Them,

WASHINGTON. Aug. l6.-The senate
will, in all likelihood, postpone plunging
into the financial debate until it seats
Senator'S Mantle and Allen.
The week past has been an encourag-
ing one for silver men. The policy of
the administration has crystallized the
opposition and strengthened the forces
of the opponents Of single gold stand
ard.
Meantime events abroad are strength
ening the hands of bimetallism. The
New York Sun prints cablegram from
London this morning which is attract
ing great attention here. 1t says:
"The American financial situation has
at length been brought home to the
people Of England, as a matter of the
greatest personal concern. Every other
European capital has been able to resist
Americas clamorous demand for gold.
The drain is being made almost solely
from London. The Bank of England
had large gold reserve when the Amer
ican demand began. Ibis has disap-
peared faster than ever before in the
history Of the institution. Measures
for meeting the emergency are likewise
unprecedented. The bank never before
made such rapid advances in the dis
count rate. 1t is quite probable that it
will be necessary to make further ad-
vance to 3 per cent within few days.
'The whole world is locking up it's
gold. The premium on the metal is 0
per cent at Rome and II per cent in
Madrid. The London bankers are max
ing preparations to compel some of the
continental hoarders to disgorge por-
ton of their treasures.
ut would be easy to create currency
famine throughout Europe as acute as
that of the past few days in America.
1t is already recognized that the embar-
rassment OF the United States cannot
long be localized.
THE effect of this knowledge is a
rapid modification of the opinion of
both men and governments in Europe.
Never before was it clearly realized
that the financial world is after all only
a unit and that disturbance in Ameri-
ca must have it's effect in Russia and
vice versa.
Another resort to monetary confer
ence is being discussed in very differ
ent spirit from that with which the in
vitation of the president of the United
States was greeted a year ago. 1t is quite
possible that the countries which sent
delegates to Brussels as matter of
courtesy, will take the initiative in call
ing another consultation. and will join
earnestly in search of practical solu-
tion of the monetary problem.
"The commercial effects of the Amerl-
can monetary stringency are no less sig
niticant in Europe than the financial
consequences. There has been sharp
falling off within few weeks of the ex-
ports to America from all parts of Eu,
rope. This will increase for some time
longer. Orders for further shipments
are being cancelled in astonishing quan.
titles. On the other hand, there are
signs OF great increase in imports of al
kinds from America. The pressure is SC
great that it may fairly be said that Am
erica is forcing the market in Europe
The result of course will be an enormous
balance of trade in favor of America. SC
| that the present exports Of gold to tha,
country will be continued and uncalled

A Young Girl Charges "a Congressman
with Causing Her Ruin.
WASHINGTON. Aug. li.-Madeline V.
Pollard of this city has begun in the dis
trict supreme court for suit for breach
of promise against Hon. w. c. p. Breck-
inridge, the famous Kentucky orator for
$4,000 damages. She AYERS he made
her acquaintance on train when she
T. was only Il years old and student of
Wesleyan Female seminary, Cincinnati;
that by his wiles he got her entirely
under his control, accomplished her ruin
in August, 1889, and kept her under his
thumb till July, 1892, during which time
she became the mother of two children.
All this time he was married man. In
July, 1892, his wife died. He, however,
after that refused to make good his
promise to marry her after the death OF
his wife. In March, 1893 she again be
came mother. he had acl1now lodged
her his wife Ia the presence of others
and promised to marry her in the pres
ence Of witnesses, but on July Is last
he married Mrs. Louis Wing Of Louis
Vile.
The suit, it is said, promises to be very
sensational, The allegations fled go at
great length into the relations which ex-
lsted between the plaintiff and Breckin-
ridge, as she charges, until recently.
The birth of two children, who died, and
the premature birth of third child are
alleged as the result of this intimacy.
She further alleges that after the death
OF the children she came to Washington
and that after the death of his wife she
was again in dc.tcate condition, and
with protestations o. love and affection
he induced her to continue their rela-
tions aud promised to marry her as soon
as it would be proper for him to do so.
From time to time, she alleges. the date
for the marriage was postponed, until,
on July lS, breckenridge wrongfully and
injuriously married another woman. The
plaintiff was for some time an employo
OF one Of the departments here. The
announcement OF her engagement to
Breckinridge and the subsequent break
ing OF tie engagement and Breckinridge's
marriage created sensation in the cap
ital.
