WILL BE CONSIDERED,

The Committee on schools to Meet This Afternoon to -ConsIder the Charges Against Principal Bangs. The committee on schools of the board
 of education will meet this afternoon to consider the case of Principal E. E. Bsngs of Wooster school, who ha, been notified
 that he will not be recommended for re- appointment by the committee on schools.
 The meeting was to have been held yester- day afternoon, but owing to the fact that
 Mir. Whitney, the chairman, had a pre- vious engagement, it was deferred.
 To newspaper man MT. Bangs said:
 "Upon receiving the notice from the superintendent I went to him and he said he had no charges against me. but perhaps the committee on schools would formulate some. then went to MT. Asher, a mem the superintendent should make the charges and specific ones too, as upon him rested the burden of proof in the case against me. He said the committee had no charges. Tho charges were from the su- perintendent.
 'I then went to MT. Whitney, another member of she committee, and he said be had no time to investigate. He said there was an impression in the board that I should get through.
 "I have been told that during the admin istrstion of Messrs. Graves and Plunkett they were opposed to me, and upon going to MT. Graves he said 1t was not true that he was against me. Mr. Whitney persists in saying that he will vote sgainst me be- cause the superintendent has recommended it; but Messrs Asher and Moran say they have no feeling in the matter, but will vote on the merits of the case. So far no charges have been preferred. The super intendent says be has no charges, and the committee says 1t has none, but that the superintendent has.
 'Speaking for myself, can say the school has been very succe ssful the past year, and no troubles have come up. It has been regarded as bad as any school iu the city because of the material we have to deal with, but have been principal here for sixteen years and believe have done well by the school. When I came here thsy were having on an average six whip ping cases 6 week, and yet it was eight weeks after came there before l had . case of whipping. I found 1t was better to try first and govern in. come other way. One of the members says that he has been going to the superintendent for the past two months to get him to make the report he hss made. But there is no doubt in my mind but that the start in this matter has eome from within the school. I under stand a petition is in circulation, but 1t was started without my knowledge. But if there are any charges agsinst me I want them investigated to the full"
