AS will be seen from the above
schedule the only change made from
the recommendations of the various
officials was in the sheriff's office,
where the deputies were allowed $50
per month and the bailiffS $65 instead
of 500 and So per month respectively
as recommended.
The board did not fix the salary of
it's own clerk, Mr.. Emery, but he still
continues tc draw his monthly stipend
at the old rate.
In the matter of Al Reese and the
chief clerk of the court, for whom the
county clerk recommended a salary of
81 500 per year each as deputies and
$500 per year extra for doing the book
keeping of their respective departments
outside regular office hours, the county
attorney rendered an unfavorable
opinion. AT Saturdays meeting of the
board this matter together with sew
eral other questions was submitted to
Mr.. Whittemore, and yesterday he rem
dered the following opinion:
To the Board of County Commission
ers:
Gentlemen-I herewith beg leave to
submit an opinion pursuant to your
request upon the following questions:
F'irst-Can the board in refunding to
the county officers the salaries paid by
them to their deputies from January
to the present time allow such salar-
les in excess of two-thirds of the
amount of salaries of the respective
principals?
Answer-No.
Second-Has the board the power to
fix the salary of the superintendent of
schools for two years?
Answer-The board may in it's dis
erection fix the salary for either one or
two years. l would advise, however,
that the salary be fixed the same as in
the case of other county officers, viz:
for the period of one year.
Third-Can the board allow any
deputy a compensation in excess of the
'two-thirds limit for extra work done
outside of regular hours?
Answer-No. If there are not suf-
ficient deputies in any department of
the county governmental service to
regular office hours, the evil can only
additional deputy. Very respectfully
c. Q. WHITTEMORE,
County Attorney.
This seemed to clear away all
OBSTACLES anu the SdldTleS were Jnen
fixed as above for period of one year
The appropriation list was then
passed. 1t was unusually large as
most of the officials and deputies pre-
scented claims for their compensation
from January to May 1.
The following resolution by Chris
topherson was adopted:
Resolved that the county treasurer
be and is hereby authorized and di-
rected to transfer and set over the sum
of S4,432.5S now in his hands from the
fund used for the redemption of inter
est-bearing county warrants to the
fund heretofore created and known as
special fund, said money or so much
thereof as may be necessary to be
used for the payment and redemption
of warrants heretofore drawn and is
sued or hereafter to be drawn and is
sued by order of the court on the said
fund for the payment of the respec-
tive amounts due the state, state
schools and district schools for their
respective proportions on account of
redeemed tax sales held by the county
in trust TO be full discharge of said

BANKRUPTCY BILL TO PASS
House of Representatives Will Dis
pose Of the Measure This Week.
Opponents of the Torrey Bill VIII
Not Object TO This Act Be-
coming Law.

The bankruptcy bill, which was reported
from the Judiciary Committee OF the House.
Will be taken up by that body some time this
week and passed. The pending bill is based
on the Torrey bill, which has bobbed up in
every Congress for the past ten years. only
to be side-tracked and killed.
As modiried. the bill includes both voluu-
tary and Involuntary bankruptcy. and is
therefore less drastic in its character than
the original Torrey bill. Under the present
bill the making Of an assignment for the
benefit OF creditors and the stopping of
pa yment OF commercial paper for thirty
days, and all acts showing fraudulent
transaction are the only causes of inyol-
untary bankruptcy.
A debtor cannot be adJudged an invol-
untary bankrupt unless he owes at least
81 900, but the involuntary failure will
not apply to farmers and waec-earners: a
wagc-eauer being defined as a person
whose yearly wages or salary does not
exceed 81 500. A partnership may he al
Judged bankrupt, the partnership debts 10
be discharged first.
The bill will be an,agonized by Con-
gressrnen who oppt sc any law providing
for involuntary bankruptcy.
Among these has always been Mr..
Bailey of Texas. He fought the Torrey
bill, because, be said, IL would do The
solvent debtors Of tire country more harm
than it would do III insolvent debtors
good.
He is disposed to support the present
bill, If his own cannot he substituted,
provided that measure be amended in two
or three particulars.

GIRLS WENT TO new YORK
Lizzie Reinhart and Daisy Linton
Make known Their Whereabouts.
They Were Offered Higher Wages in
Confectionery Store in tue
Metropolis.

Lizzie Renhart aud Daisy Linton, the
TWO young girls who disappeared so mys-
,eriously from the confectionery store and
boarding house of Mr.. william Schneider,
at No. 224 East Capitol street. where they
were employed. have disclosed their where
abouts.
Mrs. Reinhart, the mother OF the elder
girl, who lives at No. HOS street south
east, received a letter from her truant
daughter this morning, couched in dutifu
.erms and imploring forgiveness. Both she
and Daisy went from here to New York,
where a friend had secured them places in
confectionery store.
Lizzie had asked to be allowed to go to
New York some time ago, saying that she
could get better wages there. Her parents
refused, however, and supposed she had
given up the idea. Last week both girls re-
csiyed letters telling them that they could
get places and on Thursday they took their
departure. They both arrayed themselves
in their best and left the store, after secur-
ing their wages, apparently wn' the inien-
tion OF going home. They did not turn
up, and when. a few days later. Mr..
Schneider became uneasy and called at
their homes, nothing was known OF them.
Both were supposed to be at the store.
Lizzie was fond OF dances, the theater,
and similar amusements, and 1t was feared
that she had taken Daisy and ran away
with male admirer. Her letter, how
ever, dispelled such fears. Daisy has
s,ep-sister, Miss Lena Coleman, of No.
2O53 Seventh street northwest, with whom
she lived when away from the store. Her
father runs an employment bureau on Elev-
enth street but it is said that he and
Daisy were not on the best of terms.

been upheld by Lincoln and by Grant. They
have been incorporated in the platforms of
the Republican and, at one time, of the
Democratic party. The danger which would
threaten the republic if these principles were
not upheld has been brought out by Jeffer-
son and by the great Washington himself
No man deserving OF American citizen

pericuCed good weather. with sCutherly
winds AID smooth seas. On Tuesda morn
