DISTRICT COAL SUPPLY.
Auditor Petty RepOrts Upon Investf-
cation MaLe of Quality.

The auditor of the District has submitted
to the District Commissioners a report OF
the investigation recently conducted by him,
with the assistance of w. j. Douglass or
the engineer department, into the quality of
coal being furnished the public schools OF
the District. The investigation covered
twenty eight schools. The coal was sub
jected to standard tests and was generally
rated as of good quality. Mr.. Petty in his
report states that, with one exception, the
coal delivered to the schools on the last
round under the contracts was Of fair mer-
chantable quality and no objection, barring
the dust in some instances, was urged
against 1t, except in two cases. In these two
instances it was found that the first COM
plant came from a misunderstanding of
the character Of the furnace on the part of
the janitor, and the second by the indui-
gence of the janitor in what the teachers
Of the school termed 'hyperbole." Mr.. Pet
ty says In part:
1T was concerning the deliveries prior to
the last, which had been consumed before
this inquiry was set on foot, that COM
Of slate, sulphur and cinker and failure
generally to measure up to the require
ments Of the contract. Inasmuch, how
ever, as the de1inQuencieS were not prompt
ly reported to the responsible authorities,
nor any steps taken at the time OF their
discovery to obtain redress, am constrain-
ed to the opinion that the District must be
held in law as guilty Of laches such as
would warrant a court in refusing relief.
I'm conclusion, I have the honor to SUBJ
NIT the following recommendations: That
all coal on hand be screened and bins put
in order before deliveries begin under the
contract for the ensuing year. and record
Of conditions in each vault be kept by the
5anitor thereof; that each janitor be in
structed to report promptly through the
regular channel, to the property clerk, any
failure on the part Of the contractor to com
ply fully with the terms Of his contract In
the coal furnished for the use of the public
schools; that where 1t is impracticable to
place the coal directly in the vaults, or to
unload 1T upon brick or concrete payements,
boards be provided or some other
means used to protect 1t from injury: that
before coal or wood is sent to any building
the janitor thereof be duly notified of the
time Of delivery, and be on hand to receive
and receipt therefor

New Battle Ship Takes the Water at
San Francisco.
CHRISTENED BY MISS DESHLER
Niece Of President Mckinley Starts
Ship Down the Ways,
B RILLIANT CEREM ONY

SAN FRANCISCO, May 1S.-Miss Barber
pressed the button, Miss Deshler smashed
a bottle of California champagne and at
1926 pm. the big battle ship Ohio took
her first dip into the sea. Fifty thousand
people cheered themselves hoarse, the big
guns of the warships doomed a salute, and
every steam whistle within a radius of five
miles shrieked its loudest as the steel mon
ster glided into the water.
The noise lasted for nearly half an hour,
and when it finally simmered down, there
lay the Ohio peacefully floating in the lit
tie cove in front of the Union works. Later
she was towed to the dock, where she will
be tied for year or more, or until finally
completed.
AS the vessel slid into the water stern
foremost she created big wave that made
even the biggest steamers nearby bob un-
comfortably up and down. For the small
er craft. they nearly stood on end.
Mrs. Mckinley was to have pressed the
button that started the Ohio down the
ways, but on account of her illness her

two months alone. The money thus raised
will be used for the purchase of property

contention was raised. The report

providing for the purchase of a lot in Yoko-
hama for missionary building, to be erect
ed from money contributed for the pur-
pose. There were some present at the
meeting who We're OF the opinion that the
lot ought to be acquired in the interior. and
over this question the report Of the partic-
ular section hung. Nothing was done in
the matter in the morning session, and the

open for action at the afternoon session.

MEETING OF CREDITORS CALLED.
Gurley & johnson Confident Of Ability
to Pay All Liabilities.

There will be a meeting of the creditors
of the stock brokerage firm of Guriey &
Johnson, which suspended business yester-
day, pending a statement of accounts, at
the offices of the firm, 1885 + street, Tues
day afternoon at 3 o'clock. A letter was
sent today to all the creditors Of the firm
inviting them to attend the meeting. when
1t is proposed to place before them a full
statement of the condition of the business
of the house Enough is known from the
examination already made to warrant the
statement, made this morning by Mr.. Rich
ard A. Johnson of the firm, that every
creditor will be paid In full. Further, that
the assets of the firm exceed S450oO0 and
the liabilities about S1750O0. The firm pro-
poses to collect the accounts as speedily as
possible.
1t is the judgment of all those who have
knowledge of the FIRMS condition and are
competent to form an opinion that there
Will be no difficulty in this house resuming
business very soon, probably within the
next two weeks. Arrangements have al
ready been made to form connection with
one of the strongest houses in New York.
AS the firm is entirely solvent, the matter
OF an assignee or receiver will not be dis
cussed
This announcement will give great salts
faction to the numerous friends of the
nrm, who sympathize with them in the
misfortune which came upon them SO sud-
oen!y, owing to the acute decline in New
York stocks on Thursday of last week.
Mr.. johnson was at the office TODAY
Where large number of his friends came
In to express their sympathy and proffer
any aid in their power. The expressions
OF kindly interest and confidence which has
come to the members of the firm from all
sides is gratifying to both gentlemen as
tney are conscious of having conducted
methods.
At the meeting Of the Washington stock
exchange yesterday a committee was ap-
pointed to draft resolutions expressing
sympathy for Gurley & Johnson, both Of
whom are members of that body.

FIRE AT ROCKVILLE. MD.
Electric Light Plant and Pamping
WORKS Badly Damaged.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star
ROCKVILLE. Md, May 1S.-Between 1
and o'clock this morning the Rockville
electric light power house was discovered
to be on fire. and in very short time the
building was completely gutted. The cleo
trio dynamo was ruined. The pumping APP
paratus for the water works was badly in
jured, probably beyond repair. and num-
Der of tools of various descriptions. with
quantity of fuel, was consumed. The total
loss amounts to about 5000.
The fire was not discovered until It was
well under way, and by the time the vol
unteer fire company responded to the alarm
1t was too late to attempt to save anything.
The origin of the fire is mystery. The
electrician and fireman closed down as
usual about midnight, leaving everything
as ii had been their custom to do.
Spontaneous combustion has been sug-
geSted, and the idea of incendiarism has
also been advanced. but there is nothing to
substantiate either of these theories There
was no insurance on the building or its con-
tents. The loss is serious one to the peo-
pie of Rockville. The present financial con-
dition of the town will not permit of the
outlay necessary to repair the damage, and
1t looks as If the town will be deprived of
electric lights and possibly water also for
an indefinite period. A special meeting of
the town council will be held to consider
the matter, and IT is thought that effort
Will be made to devise some means to place
the water works in working order. The
electric light plant and water works were
installed about four years ago at a cost of
over $50 600
