Beach and piping privileges. The con-

another important coast terminus

BULLS AND BEARS.
A Dull and feafurs|sss Market With
Bits Of BuIges.
Afternoon Hours Brought About a Distinct
Decline In Prices.
Especial To the News)

wall Street, June 15-Up TO -the early
afternoon the whole market was dun
and featureless. Such traders as went
short at yesterdays low figures seemed
TO have been pretty well worried out by
the subsequent rise, and new buyers
were as scarce as the proverbIal hens
molars. Sugar maintained a semblance
or activity and offered trades on both
sides between l53 and 1856. but gave no
sign or Its future direction for anything
like long pull.
The Steel stocks were all strong I'm
appearance at about their best recent
figures and there was some little busi-
ness in Brooklyn Transit around l1S.
But there seemed TO be nothing sub
stantial about the baylng. Even Rub
Der, which went a fraction above it's
highest OF the recent movement demon
strated no definite purpose OF taking up
a further climb 10 higher prices. The
Changers and most OF the list were
we'll nigh dormant and but for Sugars
there would have been no speculation
at all to speak OF.
Meantime Wheat ruled strong and ac-
tice. especially I'm the September op-
ton. 1t is noticeable that every sue
ceeding wheat option since January
has shown better prices and more ac-
tive trading and the outlook certainly
seems good for the operators who have
hung 10 wheat through all the quiet
months of the spring. II wheat should
SO high there is of course no argument
needed to guess what the Changers will
do. and IL the Changers are going TO
suffer a relapse the rest Of the market
can hardly be expected TO keep up the
pace which has been so long maintained
since one year ago about this time.
But OF course the future course of the
market no one can pretent to determine
and the most chronic bear must admit
that the immediate outlook has practi-
cally no dark spots in II.
About . o'clock. taking advantage OF
the absence of buyers. the bears start
ed a raid all through the list, effecting
a considerable reaction.

or unsystematic work be prohibited.
The wisdom of enlarglng the school
building is questioned.
That the kindergarten schools shall
be increased until every part OF the
city has them, and that the ages Of the
pupils admitted in them shall be from
4 10 8 years.
rhat schools of special instruction be
continued and with them the supervis-
ors
That vacation schools shall be opened
TO be under the control of the super
intendent and the supervisor OF the
special schools.
That the number OF courses In the
evening high schools be reduced: that
the schools shall close on March 1; that
there be a smaller number OF teachers
and that they be subject TO the super
intendent of the day schools.
That the critic teachers be continued.
That the $500 appropriation for the
school OF design be continued.
That the free text books law be re-
pealed and that no books shall be fur
nished excepting for the primary
grades. This recommendation Is based
wholly upon the question OF health and
contagious diseases
The report concludes with suggestions
relative to various matters. 1t seys
that there is waste i'm the method Of
heating the schools: that the tempera-
ture is allowed toe down ON Satur-
days and Sundays, to the injury OF
plumbing. causing large expenses for
repairs; that IL is unwise To run water
pipes through cold air ducts because
that causes them to freeze and burst;
that better judgment should be
displayed i'm the construction OF schools
Had there been there would not have
been three recitation rooms IN the new
east side high school so poorly sup-'
piled with light that artificial illumina-.
ton is necessary.
That in all the schools there are too
many branches and too many books
required.
That too many classes are brought
into immature contact with many
things that should be left for colleges
and universities.
That greater economy be observed
andthat extension be guarded: that the
danger is now upon us. Our schools
are ordered dismisst l two weelS earlier
than usual. Children are turned out
into the streets to the loss Of an i'm
portant part of their education In the
lower grades and that they are de-
moralized by the lengthening of the
summer vacation TO nearly three
months.
No blame is attached to the school
committee for this trenchant measure.
The trouble lies beyond their scope; in
fac they have no right to spend money
beyond the school appropriation.

The public school investigating COM
mittee. consisting Of Nathaniel +. Da-
Wis. Sarah +. Doyle. Michael j. Harson
Cornelius 5. Sweetland and Rev. James
G. Vose. appointed by Mayor Baker as
a result of a mass meeting held at In
fantry Hall, last September, made their
report today.
The report says that it is a funda-
mental principle that the supreme duty
OF the city is to give to the children the
best educational advantages.
The present financial condition OF the
school department is due TO contention
between the city council and the school
committee.
The committee recommended abolish
ing the present legislation for the con-
troll of the schools and that they be
placed in the care OF a board of educa-
tion to consist OF persons, Of whom
shall be women, to be appointed by
the mayor, the ninth TO be chairman OF
the committee on education of the city
council. their term of office to he two
years, two retiring each year. and to be
ineligible to reappointment until after
lapse of one year. This board TO ap-
point a superintendent of schools TO
serve three years and he TO appoint the
assistant superintendent.
The committee recommended busi-
ness manager who is to look out for the
specific performance of all contracts.
and To appoint all janitors, engineers
and others.
The other recommendations are that
the supervisors be retained, excepting
the supervisor of penmanship, as that
was an unnecessary expense.
That the music and drawing super
visors be continued
That there be no drawing lessons the
last two years in the grammar school
course. except for the pupils who ex-
hibit special skill and taste for ii.
That there are too many branches
i'm the grammar school and that cook
ing be given up and sewing confined
TO the primary schools.
That admission be limited to those
who have finished their grammar school
course creditably.
That the commercial departments be
discontinued at the high school: that
book k-keeping be no longer taught and
that typewritng and stenography be
confined TO the manual training school.
That student teachers, so-called, no
longer be employed i'm the high school
and that the normal instruction cease.
That while the manual training
school is highly endorsed, that desultory

HINTS FOR GOLFERS.

Keep Your eye on the ball, whether
driving, approaching or putting.
DO not press. Never mind being
outdriven Il few yards.
In approaching and putting, remem-
Der the maxim, BE up" If the ball
be short of the hole it can't 90 in. and
the hole won't come to it.
Avoid topping the ball; it is worse
than schlaffing.
Good putting and approaching are
better than long driving. The man
who can put is match for anybody.
If you wish to drive straight, cult
vate good follow through" Let
the arms and club go well away with
the ball after it is struck.
When in a hazard do not try to do
more than extricate the ball.
1t is better to play short of hazard
than to risk getting in by endeavoring
to do too much.
Always use wooden club where
this is possible, in preference to a
cleek.
When playing the like to a partner
who has holed his put, do not on any
account be short; play for the back of
the hole.
Don't try fancy strokes" in the
majority of cases they are an utter
failure.
Endsavor to play with golfers just
a little better than yourself.
Ii you desire TO ne Il good golfer
never play carelessly, however better
you may be than your opponent.
In playing a match for holes never
let your opponent get ahead of you'll
possible. Remember that the match
is not over until it is actually won.
If your opponent in match is a
hole or two up don't be down-hearted.
A match is not lost until it is won.
Don't be afraid to use your driver
simply because YOUR opponent uses
his cleek for the same stroke.
