THERE Is HOPE
A Special Meeting Of the Board Of
Education Today

That matter of the selection of a new
system of penmanship for the schools Is
not, 1t seems, to go by default, for a meet
ing of the board of education has been
called for this morning at 10 o'clock. and
Mr.. Webb and others may yet find them
selves dethroned.
The call for a special meeting is signed
by Messrs. McInerney. Bragg and Brady
and the incidents of the last regular SEES
sion of the board warrant this call being
termed sensational. 1t would not be sur
prising if the meeting this morning eclipsed
III turbulence that of Monday.

ONE SOLDIER KILLED.
A Private from North Carolina
Meets Death on a Train
in Florida.

Savannah, Ga, May 23.-Early this
morning a special train on the Florida
Central & Peninsula railway. carrying
North Carolina troops en- route to Flori-
da. colided with bound vegetable
train. Private William Barbee. Co. ],

NJ. Coclough was fatally injured.
The regulars were travelling in sec
tional train. The vegetable train was
waiting on a siding and thought all the
sections had passed. The engineer
pushed ahead and was running at a rapid
pace when the collision occurred.
Private Barber was in the last passcn-
ing the baggage of the battalion. He at
tempted to jump and was caught between
the cars and his head was terribly
mashed and both his legs broken. Pri-
vate Coclough was injured internally.
The train WAS attached to another engine
and brought back to Savannah. An un-
dertakcr was sent for and took charge Of
the body. 1t will be sent home for inter
ment tonight.
The battalion drew up in line outside
of the cars as the body was carried from
the railroad station. A corporal's squad
ron from each company escorted the re
mains to the uniertakers. The body
was carried from the depot on a stretcher
borne upon the shoulders of four of the
dead mans comrades. The battalion pro-
ceedcd to Florida after n wait here of
about two hours.

Washington, D. c., May 23-Gen. La
crete, with his battalion of Cubans, 5000
stands of arms, a number of rapid fire
field guns, trains of pack mules and
large cargo of assorted ammunition, has,
it is hoped, landed from the Florida on
the island of Cuba. A report TO this eff

The expedition of the transport Florida
was much better managed than that of

On Wednesday night when the start
was made from Tampa the censor took
charge OF the wires and not only informa-
ton about the Cuban expedition but all
other matter was suppressed
The censorship was so effective that it
was not known for three days that the
Florida had sailed. The landing is under
stood to have been made on the northern
coast of Cuba. in Havana province.
Jacksonville Fla, May 23.-News has
reached here of the expedition that left
Tampa on the transport Florida for the
northern coast Of Cuba. Capt. DorSt
who was in command of the Gussie cx-

Lacrete. The Florida should have ar

News as to whether the expedition was Il
success or failure is expected momcn-
tarily from Key West or Tampa.
Besides the 400 Cubans the Florida
carried five carloads of ammunition. 80

Gen. Lacrete is supposed to have been
IN communication with the insurgents
and to have arranged for a formula bic

supplies. The Florida was to land within

IMPORTANT DECISIONS.
Abstract Of Work Done by United
States Supreme Court-Street
Railway Case.

Washington, y. G.. May 24.-The Su
preme court has handed down a number
of decisions which are not only of great
inheritance in themselves, but more so,
even. in the conclusions to he drawn
from them in cases of kindred nature.
Especially is this true of the Detroit
street car case so-called. in its hearing
on the Indianapolis case now pending. IN
which il will be remembered that Gen.
Harrison's plea in favor of the company
contention for Il franchise III perpetulty
was based on lines of argument seemingly
traversed in this decision. The oleo-
margarine decision. too, seems 10 have
broader application than may appear 1t
first sight While this decision in the
PENNSYLVANIA and New Hampshire cases
does not concern itself with such pro
visions as those which demand 4 >pe-
citic stamping. coloring or wrapping OF
packages to distinguish manufactured
from creamery butter at a glance. 1t
would seem that such marks of recogni-
ton might hereafter be enforclhle only IN
the case of oleoS manufactured IN the
state cnactinC such laws. being nugatory
as to that however imported.
'Ehe street railway case was appealed
from the decision of the Supreme court
of the state of Michigan and involved tn"
right of the Detroit city council to grant
an exclusive franchise to lay street car
tracks in that city. In 1867 an ordinance
was PASSED giving To the Detroit City
Railway company. of which the Detroit
Citizcns' company is the successor. the
right to lay railways IN streets voted by
the council to the exclusion of all other
romDanieS In 1879 ri ght was extended
for thirty years. In 1854 the council
passed an ordinance giving the Detroit
railway the right to lay tracks on the
same streets already occupied by thn
lines of the other company. The old
company then brought suit to restrain the
new organization on the ground that this
ordinance impaired the validity of its
contract with the city. The decision rem
dered hv the Supreme court was handed
down hv Justice Mckenna. and was ad
verse 10 this claim of exclusive right suS-
tanning the decision of the Michigan
court.
Justice Brewer handed down the courts
onipion IN the ease IF the rrovident Life
& Trust company of Philadelphia vs.. the
county of Mercer IN the state Of Ken
tucky The case involved the validity of
certain bonds issued by the county in aid
of the Louisville Southern Railway COM
pany and turned upon the question Of the
meaning of the word through. While
the road was built into the county Il
failed 10 cross ii to the extent of two
miles In rendering his opinion Justice
Brewer held that the word as here used
did not necessarily mean that the road
should traverse the county from end To
end and he gave several illustrations
from standa I'd literature to show that It
did not always convey this meaning.
