New York's defeat at the hands of the
st. Louis Browns and Boston's victory
over the Tigers yesterday helped the
bean brigade TO pass the champions IN
the American League championship race.
In spite Of the fact that Boston this
morning is in second place. it is not ex-
pected that this slight margin win be
kept very many days. as the New Yorks
are sure TO put IL al over the Browns
before the present series is over, while
Detroit should cause the Red Sox little
trouble during the next three encounters.

Instead OF decrease in the num-
Der OF school children In the city as
the returns of the enumerators
showed, there Is an increase of 2IS
children over the figures Of last year
Since the returns have been in the
hands OF Superintendent j. A. Car
nagey by hard work the shortage
has been overcome. and an increase
Of nearly $1,000 added TO the per
capita due from the state
The returns Of the enumerators
showed total of 4.41o white chill
dren and 1894 colored children in
the city. which was an Increase OF
22 white and a decrease Of 199 col
ored pupils over the fignres OF last
year. Because OF this fact that the
enrolment showed an increase In at
tendance. superintendent Carnagey
believed that many children had been
missed, and last Friday afternoon
began a campaign TO round in all
OF the children.
Teachers OF every school reported
names OF children. said TO have not
been reported TO the enumerators
These lists were compared with the
lists OF the enumerators by two
clerks. while Truant Officer William
T. Byrd verified all doubtful names
AZ a result OF the work. today Pro
fessor Carnegey found i26 white
and 26s colored children whose
names were not secured By the emu
merators.
In the coiored lists there was a
large falling on and yesterday the
colored schools were dismissed and
the teachers devoted the day to find
ing children not listed How well
the work resulted is shown that 26s
colored pupils were found, which on
sets the reported shortage OF 1873
and makes a gain Of SO colored pu-
pills
Among the white pupils a gain OF
20 children was reported, but this
was increased by 126 children These
figures made the white enumeration
4,536 and the colored enumeration
l,S02, an increase OF 394 names
turned in by the enumerators. The
report will be made to the school
board tonight.

NAVY SECRETARY
Lively Row Between House
Committee on Naval Affairs
and Cabinet Officer
Meyer Is NettIed at BrOadside
From Rear Admiral and
Paymaster General
Especial Dispatch 10 The Call


WASHINGTON. Feb. 2-The liveliest
kind Of a row has broken out between
the house committee on naval affairs
and Secretary Meyer growing out of
the testimony of Rear Admiral Capps
and Paymaster General Rogers in op-
position to the Meyer reorganiza ton
plan.
All sorts of stories are afloat, includ-
ing rumors of Meyers resignation and
congressional investigation of the
navy department
These naval officers at first declined
to testify on the ground that the presi-
dents order forbade them from fur
nishing information to congress with
out the consent of the head of the de-
partment
This consent was granted by Secre-
tary Meyer and the two officers there
upon poured hot shot into his plan to
abolish some of the bureaus of the navy
department
Secretary Meyer was greatly nettled
by this and rumors that the two off,
GERS were to be deposed flew about
quickly
Today the story gained ground that
Capps and Rogers were busy bringing
influence to bear against Meyer in con-
gress.
President Taft took a hand today,
comforting with Chairman Foss of the
naval committee. Secretary Meyer and
Attorney General Wickersham.
The house committee has complicated
matters by taking sides on the reor-
ganization plan. The naval committee
is incensed at Meyer because they have
the idea that he intends to remove or
discipline Capps and Rogers for giving
information to a committee of kind
he did not like.
Chairman F'oss told the president to-
day that congress would never surren-
der the right to question any official Of
the government
