President Cornelius
EvadeS Questions.

President Richard Cornelius. when
ward J. Livernash had TO do with the
preparation Of the communication sent
by the Carmen's Union to the United

outrightly evasive. When asked his
opinion on the article printed IN yes

possible activity in the interest OF dis
sension which the Independent League
might have played in the labor trouble
at the expense OF Mayor Schmitz, Cor
nelius spoke a, trife nearer the mark,
saying. Il am not in politics; all 1 am

clined TO treat the suggestion OF pol
itics lightly, dismissing the idea with q
laugh

apparently more delicate matter for
the president of the carmen to speak

ton; "he is an honorary member Of
our union. he was our representative on
the arbitration board several years
ago"

persisted

yesterday. The Government has a
contract with the United Railroads for

that the teachers will perform their
usual duties. AS many Of the schools
do not have telephones. il is not posi-
bic for the school authorities to deter
mine Immediately how all the schools
are affected. The greatest loss report
ed yesterday in any one school was
that of the Everett School, Fourteenth
and Sanchez streets. there being forty
less pupils than on last Friday. A few
OF the schools had practically no
change, owing TO their being located
in densely settled localities.
President Altman and other mem
bers OF the board stated yesterday af-
ternoon that If the fire and earthquake
had not occurred there would not be
much trouble resulting from the strike
so far as the school attendance is con-
cerned. but present conditions require
many children TO travel long distances.

OIL FIELDS FAILING.
Chilean Earthquakes Have Strange Ef-
feet on Wells of Texas.

GALVESTON Tex, Aug. 27.-Re-
naarkable changes in the oil fields of
Texas since the Chilean earthquake
are ascribed by scientists and geoIo-
gists to the seismic disturbances. The
authorities declare that the movements
of the earth have opened new chan
uels for the immense subterranean
reservoirs of oil. and that the fields
within 100 miles of the coast will soon
be exhausted.
After the earthquake the Texas
fields began to show a startling and
rapid decline, while an oil heretofore
unknown in this part of the country
bas replaced the crude oil in three or
four of the wells. This new oil is very
light and IT is believed that there has
been general shifting of the oil and
mineral bearing strata
