THOSE who visited the public schools
on Friday afternoon were much pleas

sorry that school is out. They held

on Friday afternoon after they were
released from restraint. They will
now have plenty of time to denote
to their engrossing pursuits. With
school duties to interfere they have
not had enough time to do anything
right.

New York, Dec. 21.--The Tribune
says:
The conference concerning the future
organizations and operation Of the
Carnegie Steel Company are said to be
concluded for the present with every
thing settled While neither Mr.. Car
negie nor Mr.. Fricke will talk about
the situation, IL was learned from
trustworthy source that there is little
likelihood of Mr.. Fricke's starting In
to organize Il company to fight the Car
negie Company.
Mr.. Fricke's interests, so this author
ity said, are so deeply connected with
the Carnegie Company that for him to
do anything to hurt that company
would work him great harm. The Car
negie people are said to he aware OF
this, and, while they know Mr.. Fricke
is irritated and disappointed just now
they think he will come around all
right and join with Mr. Carnegie and
others as consulting partner.
There is plan under discussion, so
it Is said, to abolish the Office of chair
man and allow the Office TO die with
Mr.. Fricke. Instead. another Office
similar in character, but bearing an
other name, will be created. VI. w
Oliver of Pittsburg has been named as
| likely to take charge when Mr.. Fricko
steps aside No confirmation Of this
| could be secured here, but IL was said
that formal announcement would be
made in due time In Pittsburg.
