It seems to be practically settled now
that Superintendent H. G. Williams
VIII go to Marietta, where he has just
been elected at q salary OF $1,000. Mr..
Williams has been here only two a
and during that time he has been a
hard worker in the schools and has
made many friends. He has not given
n decisive answer to the board Of educa-
ton here. which reelected him last
week without q dissenting voice, but
the fact that he asked for ten days in
which to consider the matter and his
election at Marietta this week at an
advance OF SlO0 is taken to mean that
he intends to m V to Marietta and has
given rise to speculation as to who his
successor may be. j. r. Anderson, who

RAILROAD WAR BULLETINS.

II plans under consideration are per-
fected, so 1t is announced, the trains Of
the great railroads OF the United States
will become disseminators OF war news,
bearing at fastest speed news OF Amer
lean victories or defeats. The plan vas
Matched several days ago, and already
many Of the largest railroads have
agreed to take part in It. It is proposed
to carry the news to the country dis
trIcts by means OF flags flying from
trains. For this purpose, various pieces
of bunting will be provided the train
crews, and instructions as to the proper
means Of displaying them will be issued
to all agents and dlspatchers. Codes ex-
planning the signal system Will be dis
tributed by each road to the districts
through which 1t passes, in order that
the people may be oble TO read the mes
sages. It Is contemplated to give only
meager Information OF q victory for
American or Spanish arms, though the
signals will show whether the victory
IS on land or sea. A United States flag
with a blue pennan. above will show a
victory for the American navy. TW
Rock Island, Burlington, Illinois Cen
trail. Chicago Northwestern and Balti-
more 6 Ohio roads have adopted this
scheme.

to impose it upon property.
He believed that taxation that would
raise $3.50. 000, 900 would be amply sutfi-
clent to be carried by this bill, and that
II the eXigencies Of the war should DEM
onstrate that more money was needed

posed the proposition to issue bonds
and certificates Of Indebtedness far in
excess Of the requirements of the war.
and held that the expenses should be

NEW YORK, May 17.-Therc are as
uurances that the war board has found
away to get the Harvard out OF st.
Pierre harbor. without risk Of destruc-
zion by the Spanish torpedo boat de-
stroyer, Terror. 1t involves the use OF
the Yale and the Montgomery to watch
the port at the three mile limit to walt
until the Harvard appears. and then to
be prepared In case the Terror follows,
I or other Spanish torpedo boat destroy
ers come along. to fall upon them with
their heavy and light rapid firing guns,
md destroy them.
On the other hand there are naval Of
ficers who laugh at the fuss that has
been made over the situation at st.
Pierre. and declare that there Is nothing
to prevent the Harvard from leaving
when she desires TO-. and nothing but
tho assumption that the torpedo boat
destroyer is q formidable vessel to lead
to the opinion that It could destroy the
Harvard without difficulty.
When Captain Cotton has completed
the repairs, said to be needed by the
Harvard, the nature OF which has not
been communicated to the department,
ne can leave, and 1t is believed that
France will stick closely to the custom
under neutrality laws. to prevent the
Terror from leaving until twenty-four
3 hours later.
