SCHOOL BOARD WARRANTS
They Will Only Need the Signatures
of President and Secretary--An
Appeal Will Be Taken.

At next Monday evenings meeting
of the board of control resolution
will probably be passed directing At
torncy d. j. Reedy, the solicitor OF
the board. to enter an appeal from the
decision Of Judge Archibald relative to
the signing of school warrants by the
city controller. the grounds on which
the appeal will be taken being that
the judge again decides that the act
of 1874, under which the present board
is acting. is unconstitutional.
AS regards the signing Of the war
rants. Controller Howell regards the
decision of court as being a victory
for him. inasmuch as the stand taken
by him that he could not be compelled
to sign school board warrants, is sus-
tained.
City Treasurer Robinson, who Is the
treasurer of the school district, stated
yesterday that he would in the future
cash school board warrants signed only
by the president and secretary of the
board, taking as his precedent the case
cited in Judge Archbald's ruling, where
q peremptory mandamus was served
upon the school treasurer of the Har-
risburg district, compelling that official
to honor warrants signed by the presi-
dent and secretary of the school board
and not countersigned by the city con-
trOller.
There has never been any objec-
ton on the part of the school board
to the supervision Of the accounts of
the district by the city controller, it
being generally accepted that such a
supervision was good thing. The
only objection was to the paying of ex-
ira compensation for the work of SUI
pervision. Solicitor Reedy stated yes
terday that as court has decided that
the city controller has no jurisdiction
in the matter whatever, it might be
possible for the board to hire him as
a special auditor Of the boards ac-
counts. providing the members thought
continuance Of such supervision as
being necessary.
In this case the board could, If oc-
casion should demand. rescind the
power of supervision which it gave.

An inquest into the death of Patrick
Rafferty,. who was killed In Old Forge
on the evening Of December IL by
Thomas Ludden, was conducted last
evening by Coroner Roberts In F. NJ.
Lynch's hotel in Old Forge.
Three witnesses were examined, John
F.. Murran, Tony Come!nagaln and
Matthew Barber, all three Of whom
were present when the shooting oc-
Cured.
Murran, the fireman at Jermyn No.
breaker. in the engine room OF which
the tragedy occurred. again went over
the story of the affair. He described
how he and Barber. the watchinan,
came into the engine room and saw
Ludden there standing over Tony. the
Italian, with the two re,olvers in his
hands. He told of the hour and half
which passed while Ludden stood over
Barber. Tony and himself threatening
to shoot If one of them made a move.
BLOWING THE WHISTLE.
He then described the blowing of the
breaker whistle by r.udden and the ar
rival u few minutes later of Officers
Rafferty, and McKennl. Murran said
| that as the two officers approached
L.udden raised one Of the revolvers
and fired first at McKerna and a mo-
mcnt later at Rafferty,. He then
| paused for moment. and noticing
McKenna leaning against the engine
he was Just about to fire when MUIR
ran said that he leapod upon him from
| behind, bearing him to the iloor.
He then told of his struggle on the
| floor with Ludden and the desperate
efforts made by the later to use one
of the revolvers, biting him on the
wrist during the struggle. From his
story 1t would appear that Tony and
Barber must have left the room when
he got Ludden down. as he stated that
neither of them came to his assistance
until after he had taken away one of
| the revolvers and was about to take
| away the second.
The stories of Parber and Tony CO.
| incided with Murran's in the main
| points. After hearing the evidence the
| jury returned the following verdict:
THE JURY'S VERDICT.
| We. the undersigned Jurors, after hear
| ing all the evidence In the case DO render
| the following verdict: That the said
| Patrick Rafferty, came to his death by a
| gunshot wound received from a revolver
| in the hands Of Thomas Ludden in the
| breaker engine room at Jermyn No.
mine in Old Forge borough on Dec. II,
| 1889, and We do further find that the said
Thomas Ludden did deliberately and will
fully such shooting.

Property at Niagara Falls is Rapidly
Increasing in Value.

The Pittsburg Reduction company
established the first aluminium works
at the Falls in September. 1895, using
1,500 horsepower. Since tn, this
place has been greatly enlarged ana
another Of equal capacity erected on
the grounds of the Niagara Falls Hy-
draulic Power and Manufacturing COM
pany. The two concerns are using
considerably over 5000 horse power.
These are the only manufacturers Of
aluminium in the United States. This
material is adapted to great variety
of uses, but the product of these
mills is the aluminium In ingots, rods,
sheets and wire. 1t is largely mani
factured into cooking utensils, table
ware and toilet articles, in Buff 10,
n. Y, and throughout the Conne;'c Gu:
Valley. The metal Is being largely
used to replace brass and copper, and
Is now being sold at relatively equiv
alent prices of these metals. The in
dustry is in its infancy, but the de-
rapidly coming into general use.
The direct electric current is essen
tial in the manufacture OF aluminium.
For this reason the company is to be
congratulated on their location at
Niagara Falls, where unlimited electric
power Is furnished at the minimum OF
cost. AS the transmission of cheap
water power by electricity greatly
cheapens the process Of manufacture,
this will have much to do with intro
ducing this product into general use.
