as in the year preceding that. Of
the policy Of reserving anything
except bare suficiency to pre-
vent overdrawing the people
might justly complain, and l acted,
as thought, consistently with the
public interests.
1t is proper to explain to the
people, through you. why it is
impossible to maintain the high
rate of last year:
I. The Assessors returns Of
taxable values for the fiscal year
just closed were more than S25.-
900, 900 less than those for the
year preceding. This, of course,
means a marked decrease of funds
available for the schools.
2. 1t is estimated that the tax
on banks, the stock license. etc.,
will be materially less.
8. The census returns show an
increased school population of
1906, requiring an additional fund
of more than $50, 900.
There has been some increase
in two or three sources of revenue
and the Auditor has credited to
the School Fund the full amount
due it on account of money re-
covered from defaulting officers
and returned to the Treasury, but
all these are by no means sufficient
to meet the general falling off
and justify per capita exceeding
S2.75.
Yours truly,

THROSTLE'S ST.LEGER
Lord Rosebery's Ladas, the Fa-

A Surprise for the Talent in the
Great English Race.
The Winner Was Looked Upon as
Paccmakcr for Matchbox.

LONDON, Sept. l2.-At Doncaster to-
day. the race for the st. Leger Stakes
Of 70 sovereigns each, for three-year-
olds. colts carrying l26 pounds. FLIES 1913
pounds was won by Throstle, bay flly,
by Petrarch, out OF Thistle. owned by
Lord Abingdon.
Ladas, a bay colt by Hampton, out of
illuminate. owned by Lord Rosebery,
was second, and Matchbox, a bay colt
by st. Simon out of Match Girl formerly
by Sir f. tombstone, but now the prop
erty of Baron Hirsch. was third.
Previous TO the start, which was ex-
pected to take place at 3l5 p. NJ, II
was believed that eight horses only out
OF the long list OF entries would be sent
away, and three of these were supposed
to be nothing more than pacemakers.
Lord Cadogans Stowmarket and Lord
Durhams Son o. Mine were scratched
and the brunt of the battle was said to
lie between Ladas and Matchbox.
The opinion Of the sporting fraternity
seemed to be slightly in favor of Match
box
Lord Alington's Throstle and Legal
Tender, also the property Of Lord Aling-
ton, were looked upon as being the pace
makers for Matchbox.
Loates was announced to ride Ladas,
the Derby winner, owned by Lord Rose
berry, and IL was said that he was to re-
ceive u bonus Of Fl. 900 IL he won.
The betting was II to on Ladas, and
| II to against Matchbox.
The day was beautiful one for rae
| ing, and the course was crowded with
notabilities, including Lord Rosebery,
| the Duke of Cambridge and the Earl
and Countess of Coventry.
1t was thought worthy OF note to- day
| that every horse i'm the race for the ST.
Leger Stakes was owned by a man or
woman OF title, and. with the exception
| OF Matchbox and Legal Tender, they
were all bred by the owners.
| In the betting, previous to the start,
40 to / was wagered against Throstle,
and at the start so to l was offered
| against her. On the other hand, Ladas
commanded II to 10 on him.
Legal Tender led to the mile post
where Matchbox drew to the front with
Ladas last, and carried on the running
In the straight where Ladas, however,
eventually assumed command. But the
Derby winner was challenged at the dis
lance by Lord Alingtons horse, who won
easily by three parts of a length. Two
lengths separated Ladas and Matchbox,
and Amiable, owned by the Duke OF Port
| land, was fourth.

According to the allegations Dimmick
was in the habit of insuring vessels in
the name of the Continental Insurance
Company, which co .lected the premiums
and that when a vessel was lost Dim.

Continental in the two plaintiff COM
