In course of an article about the
public schools of New York in the
Worlds Work there is some sharp cri-
ticism of teachers salaries in New Jer-
sey. In Fenton a primary teacher re-
ceives $3.50 for the first three months.
At the end of that time she receives $35
If her work is satisfactory and this is
only paid for ten months. And the
salary is taxed one per cent to support
the pension fund. Board costs SO per
week. The question is how does such
a teacher live.
After a year a primary teacher re-
ceives $40 and on completing ten years
of service So. The Principal of a ten
room schools gets a maximum of $500
a year. High School teachers receive
$3.50 annually, and these must be college
graduates.
New Jersey and Delaware are the
most penurious states in the Union in
paying teachers salaries, and it is no
wonder that their schools are bad. We
have complaint here of the smallness
of teachers salaries, but they are on
a very liberal scale compared to the
schedule given above.

ASK
TO SEE HANGING
Russian Noblemen Also Want to
Watch Chicago Bandits Die
for Their Crimes.

Chicago, April 2o.-Curiosi to see
the three car barn bandits, who are
to be hanged Friday, has led two Rus
sian noblemen to seek adm1ttance to
the scaffold scene. The foreigners
are Count Leihoff and Count Braks-
wietcz, whose desire has been COM
municated to Sheriff Barrett by Baron
Won Schlippenbach, the Russian con-
sui in Chicago.
to see the bandits hang have been re-
ceived within the past few weeks, in
some cases from distant points in
Europe, and from every part of the
United States. They include strange
petitions in foreign languages, urging
requests with promises of money
many from women, all voicing a
common desire.
The execution Of the bandits, how
ever, will be strictly private, in con.
forn1ity with the law. The only
spectators Of the hanging will be the
persons appointed by the statute az
necessary witnesses Of the accomplish.

GARFIELD INQUIRIES

Chicago Stock Men Tell Conflict

New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun special 6erVlce'
Washington, April 20.-Commis-
sioner Garfield Of the bureau OF cor
porations, who went to Chicago to de-
termine whether the beef trust Is
violating the injunction issued by
Judge Crosscup against fixing the
price of beef on the hoof as we'll as
dressed meats, and dividing territory,
is extremely reticent concerning his
investigation.
It is learned that information was
given by some of the Independent con-
Germs that the beef trust is liking
prices Of beef on the hoof. Mr.. Gar
field, however, declines to say whether
he secured any evidence that the IN
junction was being violated.
Members of the beef trust told
Commissioner Garfield that there is
nearly as much competition In the
Chicago market as ever and that the
cattle dealers were securing prices
nearly as high as were paid before the
formation Of any combine.
The market reports show there has
been a tremendous falling Off In the
price Of cattle on the hoof as com
pared with the prices Of eighteen
months ago, and there has been little
or no decrease In the price of dressed
beef SO far as the retail prices are
concerned.
Representatives Of the packers de.
clare that il there is not as much
competition as formerly it Is explained
i by the fact that, as some OF TIT
| smaller companies have merged thetl
/ interests, there are fewer competitors
and necessarily there has been som'
1 shading in the price Of cattle.

London, April 20.-A dispatch from

Sunday night forty transports were
sighted off Chi-fu, bound, apparently,
for the Liao-tung gulf. It Is sup
posed this Is the force referred to-.
No details are given.
A Chi-fu dispatch says:
While no dispatch boats arrived
yesterday the city Is filled with re-
ports from Port Arthur. They are,
however, largely rumors from Chinese
sources.
The most important is that two
Russian battleships collided while
maneuvering in the outer harbor to-
day and that one was sunk.
This report Is, Of course, uncon-
f1rmed, but later reports from the
same source give further details and
state that the ships were the Sevasto-
pol and the Pallada, and that one was
badly damaged.
Late last night another report was
received that a general bombardmen1
of Port Arthur was made by the jap
anese to cover the landing Of trpops
en- masse. No confirmation by lanc
wires or sea Is possible.

bate extending thru the entire session,
the house passed the bill providing
for joint statehood Of Oklahoma and

lahoma, and of Arizona and New
Mexico under the name Of Arizona.
Mr.. Spalding of North Dakota,
from the territories committee, ex-
planned the conditions which led the
committee to recommend two states
out Of the four territories.
In opposing the union of Arizona
and New Mexico, Mr.. Wilson OF Arr
iona declared that. such union,
against the will of the people, was
ultra radical policy and was a po-
litfcal revolution.
While stating that the bill did not
exactly conform to his idea Of what
was wanted by the people OF Okla
homa, Mr.. Mcclure Of Oklahoma de-
clared that should it pass there would
not be vote against 1t either in Ok
lahoma or Indian Territory.

of New Mexico, who said that while
the bill did not suit the people of his
territory, they nevertheless acqutesced
in it. He predicted that in 1910 New
