BECKETT GOES
TO MANSFIELD
Sewers Connection with Ma
rlon Schools.
BOARD IS EMBARRASSED
May Have Trouble in Filling
the Place.
The Question of a Successor will be
Taken up at the Special Meeting
Tonight.

Cns of the most peculiar modes of
action, which have been pursued by
local school teachers in years. was
that of {. NJ. Beckett formerly prin-
ciral of. tie Commercial department
of the High School, now resigned 70
accept work at Mansfield. Mr.. Beck
EFT held a position here as principal
of the Commercial department at a
salary of $1,000 per year. He has ac-
cepted a position at Mansfield as a
teacher in the commercial depart
ment at salary OF $1,000. and the ac-
tion Is astounding TO the local MEM
bers of the board of education and
his friends in this city.
Throughout the summer Mr.. Beck
EFT has referred TO his offers in tie
schools at Columbus and at New
Yo = pd had failed TO put in an APP
plit Sn for his work here. His
ability as commercial worker and
teacher was recognized by the local
persons who knew him and his vol
untary step backward Is a mystery. II
Is said that Mr.. Beckett lost his pop
ularity since his failure to win the
principalship here last year and that
he was content with anything but
Marion for another year.
The members of the local school
board and others regret the action OF
Mr.. Beckett and can yet scarcely be-
lleve he could voluntarily leave the
Marion schools where there was per.
feet harmony in th1 faculty There
will be much difficulty eXper'
[ fenced by the beard of education II
| e'ecting a competent man for th'
work here. The commercial Is on'
of the leading departments Of th'
High school and as the time is shor
the board expects TO be more thar
teacher TO I'll the vacancy. Mr.. Il. d
Grim, formerly of the Marion Busl
ness college Is an applicant for tn
position. Mr.. Grim, however, has no
as yet taken the required eXamlna
tions which are being conducted a
tie High school Wednesday an
Thursday. A number of other appli
cants arc taking the examination, an
with the failure of the board to selec
one of these a special examination
may be held for the accommodate
OF the new applicants.
The board OF education will NEE
this evening aud consider the cleo
tion OF teachers and II is probabl
that this matter VIII lie one OF th
foremost TO occupy the attention {
the board. There ere a number
positiCns I'm 80 gr7ae1 schools TO b
filled also before she opening OF th
SCHOOLS, next Monday.

Will Object to Being Forced
to Disband.
ONE FRAT. AFFECTED
D. A, E the Only One Rec
ognizsd by High School.
Local Board of Education will
Issue an Order and Then the
Fight will Come.

II Is expected that the new Ohio
state law will necessarily have TO De
quoted to Higa school fraternity of
Marlc1 before disbandc lment Is made
The law, as int,.oreted. states that
no High school fraternity shall ex-
list, and as Marion has but one fra
ternity, which is recognized as such,
the local board OF education may be
compelled TO order tie dsbandon-
ment of this fraternity.
There are a number of fraternities
in the city which are not High school
fraternities and according to John H.
Clark, who was consulted by these
fraternities, these will not be affected
by the new law The other, how
ever, expects to be compelled to dis
band and members state that they
will fight the matter TO a finish as
the law in Tire matter may be differ
ENTITY interpreted. Sons members be-
iieve that, according to the law as
made. those High school students,
who have membership in the fra
ternity, will lave to discontinue their
membership. sHoweTor, according tO
others, the law refers to all members
( of the fraternity, which Is known Is
High school fraternity, and that So
ciety which Is composed of alumni
and high school students will have Ia
be disbandoned.
| The local board of education be.
lieves IN carrying the law TO its fur
effect and it is probable that pap
ers, which order tie disbandonmen'
| of the fraternity, will be issued soor
after the opening of the school. Clerl
lHn will be required to do this &C
cordlng 10 the law.
The High school fratrnity OF thi
city is that of the D. a. Il. which hai
its rooms on West Center street. Int
Phi Alpha Ph is not recognized as
High schol fraternity.

STOCK M>RkET REVIEW,
Price Rec0'e", Followed by Stagi,a
 lion Here and Abroad.

New York, Oct. l9.-1'hcre was anoth- CT demonstration today of the resillen- cy of stock prices from the depressing Influence ot tle European political out look. Opening prices wcsc established at point Iah more than made np the decline f ihy iasi of the week caused by the new lhreat o' hostilltics in the BajlHua The lnvcl of prices being rcqta'a., .Ae mar.,cr became yir- tually Sta%ra9. Icrign markets fell into slmIa condition of neglect after the recovery ,o price there as here. The apathy or the speculation might be viewed as u expression of remaining apprehension of failure of efforts for q peaceful settlement in the near east. At all events, there was no market and the fact hccame obvious that the great financial powers were resting on their oars This passive attitude did not in- yolve any wide drift from position as the current Of the price movement was sluggish to the point of Stagnation. This amounts to saving that with the large cotrolling interests refralning from operating. nothing was left of the market incoming adyices continue to show progress i'm business and undi-
 unfinished confidence in a more active revival after the elections That stock market speculation has waited on tho event to the same extent as business operations are doing would seem to be q violent assumption Taking stock of the situation, there are many indica- tons of the long steps already taken in tho speculation to anticipate the business revival. The prolonged ad- vance in prices of securities is gener- ally known from the records of the stock market from day to day and
 week to week Less attention has been paid, but more Is being paId the pro- digjous expansion of the loan item of the New York clearing house banks

The strength in old Northern Pacific stock, with a widening of the distance between that and the new certificates eight installments paid to 10 points against q difference of only q points on the collapse of September 22, again directed public attention to the possi- blity of an extra dividend on the old stock before the issue of the new stock next February. Somo blocks of i ,000 shares or more came out around 143 1-4 to 143 1-2, or at the highest prices of the morning. and for time it was more active than either Union Pacific or Reading which generally lead the list, The prevalent view in wel-posted circles is however that no extra dividends are likely in the near future.

In one respect the days movement of the traction stocks had broader interest than that of speculation The Stock exchange has assumed that the election of Mir Chanler to the gov ernorship. on his platform of hostility to the public service commission, would he a bull point on the trac- ton shares; therefore 1t has been watching those stocks, on the theory that the prospect as between Hughes and Chanler ought to be reflected in their action on the market Such betting as there was last week on Wall street slightly favored Chanler The afternoons decline threw a curious light on these calculations.
