Teachers Oral Contract.
InVAI10. -

Justice Buck, Of the supreme court
on Wednesday handed down a deci-
sion In which he holds an oral con-
tract between . teacher and school
district to be invalid. ~
The case is that OF Charles F. Le.
land and Donald Mcleod as the Com
mercia Banktngl company, respond.
Eents, ". School District, No. %, St:
Louis county, appellant.
Mae D. Greer taught six months In
the school OF this district under an
oral contract in which she was pro-
missed so per month. She was paid
in cash for four months and at the
close OF the school, the directors and
clerk gave her "a order on the
treasurer OF the district for $50 q
balance due her. She assigned or
sold the order to the banking firm,
and the district refused to pay it.
Suit was brought and the district
court decided in favor OF the banking
firm.
The supreme court, in the decision
handed down by Justice Buck re-
verses this decision and holds that
under the law cf 1894, which expressly
provides that contracts between
school trustees and teachers must be
Ia writing, the contract in question
was invalid and the teacher or her
assignees cannot recover.
In his opinion Justice Buck says
that the statute rests upon soul d
public policy, and cannot be waived
by the teacher or trustees. There are
several thousand school districts in
this state, and to leave the rights Of
teachers and people to oral contracts
would lead to innumerable disputes
and litigation, to the great detriment
Of educ ational and frequently the
financial interests of the state.

ADVICE.
americans Warned Not to Land on
the Island on M~indanao.

lloilo. March "a. The coasting
steamer Romulus has arrived here
from Zamboanga. on the island OF
Mindanao, with upward of a hundred
passengers, including Spanish prls-
cners with their wives and families,
who are returning TO Spain. They re-
port that 1000 spanish troops collect
ed from the Southern islands are at
Zamboanga awaiting a transport now
long overdue. When the Romulus
sailed on Monday no Americans had
landed from the cruiser Boston. Pro
visions are purchased from the Mcros,
who freely enter the town, armed with
Knives and spears. The Spanish COM
mandani, Mentero, advised the Amer
leans not to land, except in small num-
bers. because the natives threaten a
conflict and intend TO take possession
Of the town. Their attitude Is de-
termined. The Romulus brings Span
iards and natives returning to Cebu,
whence they fled upon the abandon
ment Of the Spanish garrison. A pas
senger stated that the Boston was
grounded for two days at Zamboanga.

Washington, March 26.-Citizens OF
the United States residing In Che
Foo, China, have made an earnest
appeal through Consul Fowler. at Che
Eco, 10 the charitable in America and
elsewhere on behalf of the sufferers
from the appalling Yellow river foods
OF this year. These Hoods have been
described by the natives as "China's
SORROW" and the petitioners state that
never before was the distress so
great and heartrending as now. The
most conservative estimates place the
number of starving at 100000. and
time and the increasing cold weather
will undoubtedly augment the dis
tress. The petitioners say they are
daily, almost hourly in receipt of re-
ports from their countryJnen in the in
terror depicting the famine of the refu-
gees. Hundreds Of villages are sub
merged, cities surrounded by water,
homes, furniture, clothing-in fact ev-
erything-is under water or destroyed.
The natives themselves are living in
straw huts; many have absolutely no
shelter from the winters cold and
snow, subSiSting on bark, willow twigs,
roots. etc. The summer crops have
been a failure. the seed for next
springs sowing is gone and there is
nothing for these starving millions TO
hope for in the future.
with u knowledge Of the terrible
want prevailing" says the American
committee, 1--WE venture TO call upon
the charitable in u home land to as
sist us in trying to alleviate at least
a portion of this misery. Therefore
we shall be glad TO receive contribu-
tons of money and corE.'

GENERALS NOT WITH GOMEZ.
Twelve of Them submit to the As
sembIy.

Havana, March PLAT a meeting OF
the executive committee of the Gu
ban assembly yesterday twelve gem
erals OF the army attended and pre-
scented their submission to that body
and expressed their willingness to
carry out its desires. A long discus
sion took place over the proposed dis
bandment of the army. Each mill
tary leader declared that if the as
sembly took such n step at the pres
n time the result would be disas-
trous in the extreme. All thought the
peace Of the country was now pre-
served merely by the cohesion of the
soldiers and their obedience TO their
officers commands. If disbanded on
instructions from the assembly with
cut satisfactory remuneration, or
even with the proposed payment OF
$3,O00,0OO it would simply throw the
country into a state Of anarchy. Dis
orders OF every kind. they said, would
occur, with the consequent postpone
ment Of Cuban. Independence. Gen.
eral of Division Gonzales declared IL
such a ours We're adopted the island
In two weeks would be in a state OF
war.

NEW PLANS OF CAMPAIGN.
Military Leaders Are by no Means
Inactive.

fhActltt.
Manila, March 24.-While apparent
ly inactive since Sunday, really the OPP
posite has been the case with the
American forces. A reorganization en-
failing many changes has been In
progress since the abandonment OF
the flying column. Gen. Wheaton and
Gen. Halls brigades have not been
assigned, but the Oregon regiment,
the Minnesota regiment and the
Twenty-second regiment have been
concentrated at the camp on the Lu-
meta, at the water front, in readiness
for immediate transportation when
the plans of the military leaders have
been formulated. All our troops are
~intrenched and the situation is prac-
tically unchanged. The enemy has
RETAINED from making any attacks re-
Gently, and 1t would appear that the
rebels are saving their ammunition for
a decisive movement. According to a
prisoner captured by our troops,
AguiI,aldo has announced that he will
personally conduct the reserves at
Malolos and march into Manila with
in twenty days unless the Americans
withdraw in the meantime. The con-
centration of rebel forces in the vi
entity of Malabon gives color to the
above statement. Advices received
from Cebu say everything Is quiet
there.

Manila, March 2S. - The Americans

LAST night the brigades of Gen. III q
lts M Gen. Hale encamped in the
ehelnys trenches at New Caravan.
ana that of Gen. Wheaton at Malinta
Gen. Wheaton's brigade formed a Juno
tlon with the remainder of Gen. Mac
.Arthur's brigade and marched on 10
New Canayan. This place was forti-
hed n 300 yards from it there were
trenches on each side of the track.
These were taken possession of by the
american troops. The movements OF
the Americans viii be pushed in this
direction. The F~ilipinos, realizing that
the railroad is the crucial line have
constructed row after row of trenches
running ~diagonally on both sides Of
the track a distance Of a few hundred
yards apart. This work was designed
most intelligently and has evidently
been done under the direction OF ex-
perts. The days work of the Ameri-
cans consisted Of storming the sue
cessive trenches. The Filipinos occu-
pylng them were completely hidden.
The enemy poured a strong fire from
every trench until they were disturbed
by a thanking volley, when they would
disappear into the woods and Jungle,
only TO make a stan dat the next line.
The American loss was remarkably
small, seven being killed and twenty
hve wounded. 1t is known that the
f1lipinos were so protected that they
suffered little.
