BUILDING NEW SCHOOLS.

The demand for more schools in Pa
ducah and more teachers for the rap
idly growing districts, is so pronounced
that the Board of Education should at
once take up the matter and try to pro-
vide some means for obtaining them.
There is apparently no way to get new
school buildings except by issuing
bonds. At present barely enough mon
ey is. obtained from the city each year
to pay the current school expenses,
leaving nothing for extensions or new
buildings. This is likely to continue
indefinitely, for there is no reason to
believe that the amount or value of
city property will increase in proper
tion to the growth of the schools and
thus enable the Board of Education to
secure new schools apd increase its
corps of teachers. Besides, there is q
strong sentiment in favcr of paying
teachers, from superintendent down,
more money. But there is no appar-
emit way to do it on the maximum
amount now possible for the schools to
obtain.
Suppose for instance, that the to-
tai valuation of city property, after
the supervisors finish their work, is
$1,000, 600, which will be an increase
over last year. This will give the
schools less than $4,000. Suppose
the total valuation should increase O
million dollars Q year hereafter, which
in ell probability it will not do, this
would give the schools only $500 adj
ditional . year, for under the present
charter they IAN never get over 80
cents on the 800 except in case bonds
are issued, in which event 10 cents ex.
ira must be levied for a sinking fund.
But it Is plain that with reasonable
increase in property values in Padu-
cab the board can never get enough
money TO run the schools and erect
new buildings. and will consequently
have to issue bonds or force the school
system to remain at . stand still.
The Board of Education can under
the present charter issue bonds to the
amount Of 100000 provided two
thirds of the voters agree at an election
hell for the purpose. With 100000
worth of tonds for streets, new hos

REVIEW OF TRADE.
Industrial and Commercial Progress
Is Slow but Definite

Is Slow but Definite.
New York, Sept. 17.-R. G. Dun &C
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
Industrial and commercial progress
is slow, but none the less definite. Low
temperature and some injury to crops
provided the only adverse influence Of
the week. and this has little effect
upon manufacturers and traders who
have started to prepare for increased
business. Buyers OF dry goods, cloth
ing and millinery are notably active in
placing orders, and other staple lines
also feel the effect of gradually eX-
panding confidence. Even if the of
fetal crop estimates of September /
have to be moderately reduced be-
cause Of bad weather since that date,
there is full compensation to growers
in the enhanced prices. and the
strength of securities indicates the
faith Of the financial world.
Many mills and furnaces have re
sumed because of new orders or ad-
justment of wage scales, and prices
are steadier in most cases, with gen
eral advance in footwear. 1t is not
unusual to hear fall trade spoken of
as fully equal to last years, although
collections are not as prompt at sew
eral cities. Freight traffic blockades
are not as frequent as they were at
this time in 1903, yet there is occa-
sional complaint, and earnings in Sep
tember were per cent. larger than
year ago.
1t is not yet possible 10 report any
material expansion in the demand for
steel products as a result of new price
lists. Disappointment has been eX-
perienced by those who looked for an
immediate rush of orders, yet the
business is undoubtedly coming for
ward, several departments preparing
for activity in manner that denotes
great confidence in the future.
Evidence that buyers are becoming
npprehonsive regarding the scarcity
of cotton goods tends to encourage the
feeling that the mills will soon be
called upon for liberal shipments. Yet
the present condition OF this industry
is no stronger. In the woolen division
there was decided improvement in
dress goods, and fair duplicate orders
were received in other lines. Foot
wear manufacturers are still receiving
supplementary orders for late fall
shipment and plants are in full oper-
alton.
Failures this week amounted to 224
in the United States, against 219 last
year, and u in Canada, compared with
19 year ago.

A Brooklyn Scientist Delivers an In

Niagara Falls, N. Y, Sept. 1.-THE
international geographic congress met
here Friday. Commander Robert
PeaTy. Of the United States navy, call
ed the delegates to order and intro
duced the principal speaker, Prof.
Grove Gilbert, of Brooklyn. Prof. Gill
bert spoke on the formation of Mag
ara Falls and the gorge. His address
was technical, but many things he
said were of general interest. The
American falls, he said, have receded
much more slowly because there is no
great depth of water at the base of the
fall.
picture taken of the Horseshoe
fall in 1927 was shown. There has
been a remarkable recession in 70
years. AT the end of the glacial
period, he said the land was tilted as
a result Of the retreat of the ice. If
this fitting continues Lake Erie will in
the course of time find another
outlet and Niagara river will be dry.
This change would be wrought in pos
sibly $500 years. The scientists left
for Chicago last night.

RUSSIANS LOST 17,ooo MEN.

st. Petersburg, Sept 15.-Gen.
Kuropatilin's official report, which
was given out last night. comes as q
considerable relief as setting at rest
alarmist stories of the loss Of guns,
the cutting off of divisions and the
death or capture of prominent com
manders, which have been freely cir
culating here. The report, which is a
very long one, enters at considerable
detail into the various phases of the
battle Of Liao Yang and entirely bears
out the declaration of the Associated
Press al the time that Gen. Orloff $
failure to hold the vital position at the
Yentai mines was responsible for the
breaking down of the whole of Kuro-
patkin's plan OF battle and turned a
potential victory into defeat.
The manner in which the retreat
was carried out in the face of the ter
rible condition of the country and the
determined pressure of the Japanese
armies does much to restore Kuropat-
kin's prestige in military circles The
total Russian losses are 1900 men.
Field Marshal Oyama reports TO
Toxic that a considerable Russian
force remains south of the Hun river,
while Gen. Kuropatliin yesterday tele-
graphed to St. Petersburg that the
bulk of the japanese force is still
south OF the Yentai branch railroad.

amount 10 two generals, 256 officers

guns were lost.
An Associated Press dispatch from
Mukden announcing that, according to
information from Chinese sources, the
japanese are leaving a garrison at
Lao Yang and their main forces are
moving Out on the Russian ianks, is
partially confirmed by dispatch from
Gen. KurOpatkin reporting that the
japanese are massing on the Russian
flanks; that large force is concen-
trating 20 miles southeast of Mukden.
and that another force, whose
strength has not been estimated, is
moving up the LiaO valley. The great
army, however, is still near Yentai,
encamped along the heights between

who left Port Arthur on September II.
He adds that the Japanese are tunnel

LENA WILL BE DisMANTLED.

Washington, Sept. 1G.-Acting Sec
retary of State Adee yesterday gave
out the following statement regarding
the Russian ship Lena, now at san
Francisco:
The president has to-day issued an
order, through the acting secretary of
state, directing that the Russian arm
ed transport Lena, now at San Fran
cisco be taken into custody by the
naval authorities OF the United States
and disarmed. The main features of
the conditions prescribed are that the
Lena be taken 10 the Mare Island

moval OF small guns, small arms, am
munitiun and ordnance stores and
such other diSmantiement as may be
prescribed by the commandant of the
navy yard: that the captain give a
written guarantee that the Lena shall
not leave San Francisco until peace
shall have been concluded; that the
officers and crew shall be paroled not
10 leave San Francisco until some
other understanding as 10 their dis
pOsal may be reached between the
United States government and both
the beiligerents: that after disarma-
ment the vessel may be removed to a
private dock for such reasonable re-
pairs as will make her seaworthy and
preserve her in good condition during
her detention. or may be SO repaired
at the navy yard if the Russian com
mander should so elect: that while at
a private dock the commandant OF the
navy yard at Mare Island shall have
custody of the ship and the repairs
shall be overseen by an engineer of
ticer to be detailed by the command
ant and that. when 50 repaired, if
peace shall not then have been con-
cluded, the vessel shall be taken back
to the Mare Island navy yard and be
there held in custody until the end of

This action has been taken upon
