PRESIDENT LITTLE MAKES DENIAL
SAYS THE STORIES ABOUT TROUBLES IN
THE BOARD OF EDUCATION ARE
EXAGGERATED.

President J. J. Little. Of the Board Of Education,
asked yesterday for a statement regarding the
alleged reports of dfssension among the members
of the Board. He said
The stories that have appeared yesterday and to-
day are very much exaggerated In the story that
appeared yesterday there very little truth. 1t
is true that / suspended clerk OF the Board.
He asked who the clerk was, and said
John Wallace. chief clerk" Then he added:
Until Wallace has a chance to appear before the
Board and explain matters. l think ii would be
very unfair for discuss the matter. He
suspended a week ago to-day and requested
TO appear before the Board last Wednesday to
plain matters. He word that he too i'll
to appear. The matter Is stationary until he can
appear. 1t is possible he may be able to make
full and satisfactory explanation and until he
has that opportunity decline to discuss the mat
ter.
President Little then asked to the report
ed examination of the work of the auditor of the
Board. Mr. Cook, by Thaddeus Morarty. chairman
OF the Committee on Supplies. It having been
ported that Mr.. Cook being taken severely to
task for delay In getting out bills of the Board
and other delays of the Boards business. This
President Little declined discuss saying that he
had knowledge the matter. Mr. Cook de-
cares the of the delay in his work is be-
cause of insufficient clerical force.
Mr.. Morarty said last night hatSthere
foundation for the story that Mr. Cook and himself
were at variance bills which Mr.. Cook had
refused 10 audit.

ACCUSED OF MAKING BAD COIN.
ITALIAN CHARGED WITH CONTEMPLATING TEN
DOLLAR GOLD PIECES.


AS the result of the investigation following the
arrest on Friday by the police of the Charles-st.
station of Frances Angeloni, twelve years Old for
attempting to pass a counterfeit dollar gold
piece on Joseph Verstracten of No. IS Ciarkson-st,
Chief Hazen of the Secret Service yesterday
rested Giovanni Angeloni, the father of the girl
suspicion Of having made the spurious gold eagle
which his daughter had tried to pass.
The girl. when arrested, said that her father was
a tailor but 1t learned that he was 1eweller
and that he lived in Carnine-st. In his rooms was
round sfX-pointed star punch which fitted exactly
the stars on the face of the false COIN The eagle
piece was made of a composition containing large
percentage of gold, and in other respects had been
made IN a mould and finished by hand. Commits
sioner Shields says that the coin is q dangerous
counterfeit because of the gold which il contains
and that IL is but a trle thicker than the genuine
eagle and is exactly of the same weight.
Angeloni denied making the counterfeit but later
in the day his daughter identified by Mrs. E.
Jonasohn, of No. 205 West feminist, the person
who in February passed similar gold piece on
her.
Angeloni was held for examination on Wednesday
and the child was released on 81 900 bail.

An event of exceptional interest is
the engagement at the Cresco Opera
House, Thursday, september Goth, of

enable the manager to accept con-
tracts offered in the large cities. The
engagement in this will be kept as
Manager Lomas has an iron-clad con-
