BLOW TO TEACHERS
MCARDY ANNOUNCES THEY WILL
ONLY RECEIVE HALF PAY.
THIS MONTH
SAYS THE FUND IS DEPLETED
Pedagogues Will Suffer During
Christmas Season Unless Public
Spirited Glitch or Corpora
ton Comes to Front.

Unless some public spirited citizen or
private corporation can be induced to
come forward with q loan to the city
school fund the teachers and other en-
ployes Of the board of education will be
greatly curtailed in their Christmas ex-
penditures. In fact, present indications
are that when the next pay day comes,
Dec Is, they will receive only half of
their November salaries, which, accord
ing to CUSTOM should be paid in full at
that time.
Comptroller McCardy yesterday notified
Secretary Healy, of the school board,
that the checks for the November pay
roll which had already been drawn, could
not be paid in their full amounts for the
reason that there remained in the school
fund only $4,000. while the total amount
of the pay rolls was $4,000. The comp
troller, therefore, directed that new
checks, each for so per cent Of the re-
spective salaries due, should be drawn
at once by the secretary and sent to the
comptrollers office to replace the original
ones. The announcement naturally caused
Supt. Lewiston and the attaches of the
office of the board Of education consid-
cradle disappointment and displeasure,
from the fact that aside from any Pc
cuniary interest they may have in the
matter, any such change as has been
suggested will necessarily cause great
deal of extra labor and complicate the
work of the office. The mere writing of
the checks in itself is a considerable
item OF labor, as there are more than 800
of them, and in order to have them ready
at this time Mr. Healy and others con-
nected with the office were obliged to
work part Of Thanksgiving day and last
Sunday.
What Is McCardy's Game:
1t has been suggested that in waiting
until this time to announce the depleted
condition of the school fund, Mr.. Nc
Cardy was wreaking little vengeance
upon Mr. Healy for presuming to aspire
to the office of comptroller which Mr..
McCardy has been wont-urtil the last
election, at 1east-to consider his, by
right of adverse possession. It is said
that one of the clerks in the comptroller's
office informed Mr.. Healy only a few
days ago when he inquired as to the con-
dition of the school fund, that there
would be enough to pay the November
salaries, as there was about $4,000 in the
fund.
The exact condition of the school fund
and the method Of handling it upon the
city's books are, as far as can be ascer-
tanned. known only to the attaches of the
controllers Office. It Is understood
however, that there are two branches of
this fund, the new school building
account and the school maintenance ac-
count, and that they are, by virtue of the
manner in which they are respectively
created, distinct and separate. The new
building account is maintained by the
proceeds of the 111k-mill tax, and the
school maintenance account by appro-
priation from the general taxes, which
appropriation is limited to $25 per capita
of the school attendance. It is asserted

OPEN BIDS TONIGHT
CITY LIGHTING CONTRACTS TO Be
CONSIDERED by BOARD OF
ALDERMEN
GASOLINE FIRMS TO COMPETE
The Plain Variety Is Cheaper, but
Tncandescent Kind Gives
Three Times as Much
Light.

Unless price considerably lower than
S29 per lamp for gasoline lighting is re-
ceived when the lighting bids for the year
are opened by the board of aldermen this
evening, it is questionable whether a con-
tract for the new style of lamp will be
placed.
For plain gasoline the city is now pay
ing $16.3S per lamp per year, and While 1t
Is admitted the incandescent variety is
by far the best as far as lighting quail
ties are concerned, there are many of the
aldermen who are opposed to adding an
other third to the cost. The new style
lamp, because of it's superior candle pow
er, is computed to be equal to three Of
the plain lamps, but in the sparsely set
tied sections of the city this ratio will
never be tolerated 1t was proposed to
take out two Of the old lamps and put
one of the new in their places, but the
protest that is now being made against
this scheme, by property owners who
have been favored with a light, is giving
the councilmen trouble. In the well
settled portions of the city the incandes-
cent gasoline lamp is the favorite SO
much SO that the board of public works
has been deluged with requests for lamps
already contracted for. Some of the
councilmen are proposing compromise
In the shape of using the difference in
cost between the two for installing moro
electric lamps.
There will be two competing firms when
the bids for gasoline lamps are opened
tonight, and probably the same number
for gas lighting. The gas company, it Is
said. is willing to sell gas in wholesale
quantities to any contractor that thinks
he can make a Profit on the maintenance
of the lamps. A bid, however, will be re-
ceived from this company ALSO

WILL ASK FOR INCREASE
COUNTY AUDITOR AND TREASURER
NEED MORE CLERKS.

In accordance with the law enacted by
the legislature in 1895, Chairman SMITH,
OF the board of county commissioners,
yesterday appointed Commissioners KEEL
ly, Gray, Wright and Lott, specIM
committee to arrange for the salary OF
county officers and county employees.
County Auditor Johnson and County
Treasurer Metzdorf will ask the COM
mittee to allow the appropriation of $500
for extra clerk hire made last year to
continue.
Since the law making two tax collec-
tons a year has been in force, the work
of both of these offices has been heavier
than before, and Mr.. Metzdorf said yes-
terday that with the new system OF
bookkeeping introduced at the sugges-
ton of Gen. Pope, and the two tax col
lections year he could not get along
with less help than he had at present
The allowance was made to take effect
last January, and he will ask that it oe
continued for the next five years.
So far as is known, these will be the
only requests for an increase of the sa,-
airy list and from the feeling displayed
by certain members of the county board
at recent meeting of the joint court
house and city hall commission, soma
cuts may be decided upon.

gestion. He spoke briefly upon assuming
the mental leadership of the occasion,
emphasizing the remarkable growth of the
Christian Brothers schools and the wide
spread influence eXerted by the continu-
bly, growing alumni. He introduced the
first speaker, John j. Tighe, whose SUBJ
ject was "They Have Grown Together"
Mr.. Tighe's thought was that the prog
ress of the church and the progress of the
republic had been synonymous and along
the same lines. He cited the fact that
at the beginning of the republic the popu-
lation of the country was 100000 and
the Catholic population was 10000, While
at the present time the ratio was about
seven to one, where it had been 100 to
one at the beginning of the republic.

Gehan Alfred and Henry Soucheray, and

ID. w. LAWYERS Address.
The POSTMASTER then introduced Hon.
Daniel W. LAWYER whose theme was:
Each has Aided the Other In begin.
ming, Mr.. LAWYER laid stress on the fact
that the republic had been born under
conditions and circumstances analogous
to those under which Christianity BAD
been born; that both Institutions had ae-
veloped along the same lines, that their
progress had been identical, their ends
and aims largely one, and their destiny
was very closely intertwined.
He spoke Of the great progress of rae
Catholic church in America in the past
century. Her schools, her hospitals, her
various institutions of learning her
refugees for every form of sin and SUI
fering speak for her progress and the
work she has been doing in this repubIc.
The church has aided the republic.
Twenty-Five years before the battle OF
Lexington, the Catholics of Maryland
dedicated American soil to the spirit OF
religious liberty and religious progress.
and since that day the Catholic church in
America has consistently and courage
ously. in all times, and amidst all OPP
preston and opposition, stood for the
highest liberty of spiritual and political
conscience. The republic has also aided
the church" He spoke of the pressing
problem of the relation Of capital ana
labor, as follows:
s'rhe problems of the past have been
solved by courage and fortitude. The
future problems Of America come not
from without, but from within. The
great question of the future is the ques
ton of the relations of capital and labor,
and in it's solution the Catholic church,
emphasizing in its doctrine the divine
command, "As We would that men should
do unto you do ye even so unto them,.'

factor in our national life. Standing in
