opening schools late in the fall. and
keeping the children in confinement

The prospect for a large and sue
cessful high school at Hagerstown is
extremely bright at the present time,
and it is expected that more than
sixty five students viii be enrolled

row limits which the school has to
draw from, a high school of this size

Publishers press1

Cincinnati, O., Aug 24-A whole
sale strike of freight handlers on al
most every railroad in Cincinnati was
inaugurated today. The first set OF
men to quit work were the freight
handlers of the Chesapeake and Ohio
and the Kentucky Central division of
the louisville and Nashville railroad
Several hundred men, having their
demand for an increase of wages re
fused, announced that they would not
work. AS a result it was expected
that many freight trains that We're on
ly partly loaded or ready for loading
to leave Cincinnati this afternoon
would be delayed However the rail
roads brought men from nearby
points, and employed many new men,
and are not greatly interfered with.
1t is expected that next to strike will
be the Cincinnati Southern, as the ne
gotiations were considered practically
at a standstill this afternoon. Fol
lowing them, it was said that in the
Pennsylvania Pan Handle, Cincinnati,
Hamilton e Dayton and the Baltimore
and Ohio Southwestern forces, similar
trouble would occur The Big Four
would they.
One of the strike leaders made this
statement: Every railroad freight
handler in Cincinnati will be out by
Saturday night
The ordinary freigh handlers de-
mand an increase from Is cents to It
and a half cents per hour. The
'.pickers,'' those who select the
freight and then turn it over to others
to remove, demand an increase foom
151a cents per hour.
No disorders were reported today.

a Recommendation.

er, who are attending the meeting of
the Lutheran Ohio Synod at Columbus
are now ousfly engrossed in the af-
fairs of church management and will
not get home until Tuesday OF next
week, unless the Reys. Beck and
Feeger should have to return here
Sunday to preach.
dispatch from Columbus saws
that if the recommendation of the
preliminary committee of the Luther
an Ohio synod is followed out. the
Lutheran Book Concern will be a
thing of the past.
At meeting OF this committee
such action was decided upon. al
though it is difficult TO forecast what
stand the synod will take in view of
the fact that the institution has for
years been paying handsome dfyi-
dends.
A few weeks ago Fred J. Heer. who
for years has been at the head of the
publishing house. handed in his res
ignation, that he might establish a
publishing plant of his own.
Dispose of Plant

the composing room. press room,

in which practically all of the fund.
for that cause were deposited Reso
lutions We're adopted deploring tho
failure of the bank although the off
cials were not censured.
1t is more than probable that all
instructors in the synodicaI institu
airy. For several years the impression
has been general that the teachers
have been undernaid aud the plan
now is TO fix salaries according to the
length of service.
1t looks now as If DR. c. II K
Schuette will again be selected az
general president of the synod and in
deed resolutions urging him to- again
accept the honor were adopted II
was further recommended that the
presidency remain the same in scope
and character as in the past and II
was urged that the president should
not be hindered by having additional
duties not contained in the original
conception of the office.
The committee went on record as
favoring the appointment Of super

pervise the extended missionary OPP
