CLIQUE Is ALARMED
NOT SURE 1T CAN ELECT COMMIS-
SIONER APPEL'S SUCCESSOR.
Meeting of School Board Last Night
Member from Massachusetts Has
Not Resigned.

The School Board last night missed the
presence of the member from Boston. 1t
is believed that, having served until all
present ends that are feasible have been
accomplished by the ring. he is soon to
hand in his resignation. The resignation,
however, will come at some meeting when
the minority has some members absent. it
is believed, because with Mr.. Appel out
of the way there is tie of five to five on
such matters as these, Mr.. Calvin hav-
ing shown a disposition to act independ-
emily. a number of the clique had him
in tow last night trying, it is said, to
induce him to support one of their candi-
dates to succeed Mr.. Appel. The majority
cannot hope for a continuance of power
unless Mr.. Calvin acts with them in the
election of a successor to the member from
Massachusetts.
The School Board last night let the con-
tract for cement walks from the street to
the entrance doors of the Industrial School

lowest bidders. II. Lauter received the
contract for furnishing book cases, his
bid being the lowest. The committee on
manual training recommended that bids be
asked for in the matter OF furnishing
steam pipes for heating the forge room;
also in the matter of the purchase of
seventy-six desks for room K, similar TO
those now in use. These recommendations.
under the rules, lie over until the next
meeting.
The bond of O'Meara, superintendent OF
buildings and grounds, was approved. The
total expenditures for June TO date were
sSO4365. \ report from the committee on
BUILDINGS and grounds relative to letting
a contract for the heating or the new
buildings in progress of construction was
expected from Chairman Roth, but he was
absent and the board could not wait. Mr..
Russo wanted to hold the board together
in the hope that Mr.. Roth would show up,
hut President Martindale did not care to
wait. After whispered consultation with
MIR Russo the latter moved TO adjourn
until next Thursday night, when this sub
feet and the report of the finance COM
mittee can be heard and disposed Of The
contract for the heating apparatus was
let to a Chicago firm, which refused 10
qualify. and the committee proposes TO let
the contract to the next lowest oldder
the difference being only about $40.
The finances of the board need attention
az the next meeting. The fiscal year closes
ON June 30 and the board. as usual, finds II
self short about $4,000, though TINS i
not so large a deficit as last years $, IL

FURTHER WHEAT ESTIMATES.
Probable Yield, as shown by Reports,
About 7.77 Bushels IN Acre.

State Statistician Thompson yesterday
computed the averages from the reports OF
crop conditions which he has received TO
date. and issued TO the newspapers his Of
fetal statement Reports from 75S out Of
LOIS townships. including eighty-nine coun-
ties. do not show any material change from
the report printed in the Journal week
ago OF the condition OF wheat. The reports
sill Indicate that the crop will fall short of
% 10000 bushels, and probably as low as
100000 bushels. One week ago the reports
from s54 townships showed an average
probable yield of wheat an acre of rs busn-
duced this 10 III bushels an acre. The re-
ports OF the acreage indicate that there is
slight decrease from last year.. and
planted has been plowed up. which woula
reduce the acreage still more. IL is not be-
.ieyed tha. the yield will be much, il any
over 100000, less than 40 per cent. OF the
average crop for the State.
Next week the department will begin
sending out blanks to threshing machine
men, asking them TO report, after one
weeks work. the number OF acres threshed
and the number OF bushels OF the yield In
this way IL is hoped tn get figures that will
not be merely estimates. but will be facts
OF the actual average yield. Ii Is possible
that this may show an Increase over thu
estimated yield sent In by the township
assessors. but IL is not believed the actual
figures will be- much different from the
estimates.

Both Senators declined to comment on the
publication of the fact that eX-Congressman

HIS GRANDPARENTS STATUE.
Gen. HarrisOn's Comments ON the
Model of the TippecanOe Hero.

General Harrison yesterday viewed the
plaster model of his grandfather. William
Henry Harrison, which j. II. Mahoney has
submitted TO the Board of Monument Re
gents as his conception of what the statue
should be- Mr.. Harrison brought with him
two sketches of his grandfather. one a
Autograph and the other a steel engraving.
Neither of them was taken at the period
of life that 1t is intended TO represent In
the statue-the time of the battle OF Tip
pecanoe From the best authority obtain
able IL seems that William Henry Har-
rison's face was thinner at that time than
later in life. and it was this idea that Mr.
Mahoney followed in making his model
General Harrison criticised II somewhat as
being too thin. but qualified his criticism
by saying that he Was not competent TO
