LOWEST BIDDERS
ON INSURANCE DO
NOT GET AWARDS
Board of Education Decides
to Go Back to Old
Method.

Contrary to expectations and despite
the fact that 1t had been announced
that the bids for carrying the insur-
ance on city school property would be
awarded to the lowest bidder or bid
ders, the Board of Education last night
practically decided to place the insur-
ance in much the same way as it has
always been placed. The only apparent
reasons for ignoring the lowest bidder
was the fact that some of the agents
had sacrificed a portion of their COM
missions In making their bid and that
some of the insurance would be placed
with foreign companies.
Neither of these reasons are con-
sidered by legal authority to be suf-
ficent for ignoring the advertised state
ment thai the bids would be awarded to
the lowest responsible bidder. The
finance committee of the board had
gone carefully over the various propo-
sitons submitted and had recommended
that the awards be made to d. r.
Faulkner and Joseph A. Wright, they
being the lowest bidders on the respec-
tive plans submitted to the companies.
When the matter got to the board
the contention was made that 1t would
not be- necessary to award the con
tracts to the lowest bidders. as In
surance could not properly be classed
under the head of supplies" as in
terpreted by the lew compelling the
board to award contracts for $3.50 or
more to the lowest bidder.
Attorney Is Consulted.
Assistant City Attorney Myers, who
is the counsel for the board, was con
suited. but he was not prepared to say
that the law would designate insurance
as coming under the head of supplies.
In bis personal opinion, however, he
thought it would be advisable to con-
slider insurance under that head.
The board evidently thought other
wise, for when the recommendation of
the finance committee same up for
consideration the resolution was lost
by a tie vote, Commissioners Taylor.
Preith and Taafe voting against it.
The nance committee was then in
structed to confer with the local agents
and see IL a fair rate could not be
secured on the So. 159. 400 insurance in
volved.
1t was suggested that the bids that
had been received be kept for future
reference, and not stamo them as re-
iected. the idea being that If a suitable
rate cannot be secured in other direc-
lions the board IAN revert to them and
award the contract to the lowest bd-
der. il such a course seems advisable.

MYSTERY StROUDS DEATH OF GIRL
ON EVE OF LEAVING FOR CALIFORNIA
Beautiful Lucille Clerk Dies Suddenly in
New York Hotel Symptoms lndi-
4. cate Poison-Relatives at
Santa Barbara
Especial to The Herald ]

NEW YORK, Feb. 19.-Mystery
shrouds the death of Miss Lucille Clerk
who died in this city suddenly yester-
day while on her way to Santa Bar
bara. A coroner's autopsy today
showed that Miss Clerk did not die
from ptomaine poisoning, as supposed,
but did not make clear the cause OF
her death. The case is pronounced re-
markable by Goroner's Physician
O'Hanlon, who performed the autopsy.
'.In all my experience 1 have never
seen such queer case" he SAID.
"This woman died yesterday morning,
and today l find the organs of her body
in such a state of decomposition that
they prove nothing.
.'It is manifest, however, that pto-
maine poison did not bring about her
death. / have removed all organs and
sent them sealed in jars to Professor
John Larlxin OF the College of Physi-
clans and Surgeons, who will make a
chemical analysis and microscopical
examination. His report will be made
in about ten days Until then this will
be puzzling case"
May Have Been Poisoned
Miss Clerks sudden death and the
condition of her organs, which are
wholly at variance with her perfectly
healthy appearance until she became
i'll a few days ago, lend color to the
theory that poison of some kind ended
her life. She was a noticeably beauti-
full girl One of her two brothers is
supposed to be in Santa Barbara, Cal,
and the other in the British service in

n PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 19.-Coming
when least expected, a strike was
- declared against the Philadelphia
gamated Association of Street and
noon, and tonight the police and fire.
men We're busy handling turbulent
crowds.
Two cars were burned, a score of cars
were attacked, forcing their crews to
abandon them, and numerous arrests
We're made.
Except in the central part of the
city, street car service was almost at a
standstill. Cars running through the
central sections were heavily pro-
tected.
Great crowds collected near the
burned cars, and for a time it was
feared a riot would follow. Firemen
were ordered to turn their hose on the
crowd, and the mob quickly scattered.
Many passengers were struck by mis-
siles, but no one was seriously hurt.
The strike is the second inaugurated
by the trolley men in a year. The men
asked an increase of wages and want
ed the company to recognize no other
union but the Amalgamated.
The union leaders charged that a
rival organization had been put in the
field to defeat the Amalgamated cam
paign for better working conditions.
Want Rival In Field
The company declined to recognize
the Amalgamated exclusively.
The break In the negotiations came
on Thursday. Last night sand today
200 men were dismissed "for the good
of the service"
This aroused the indignation of the
men, and they began turning in their
cars about o'clock. News of the
desertions quickly reached union
headquarters, with the result that a
strike order was at once issued
The greatest difficulty was expert
enced from to o'clock, when thou
sands of people found it impossible to
get, a foothold on the cars and were
compelled to walk. Thousands refused
to ride on the cars. fearing attack.
The police and firemen, In anticfpa-
ton of strike, had been on war
footing" for month, and We're ready
for business when the trouble came to-
day. The moment that news that a
strike had been called reached the city
hall the police plans were placed in
operation.
Mounted police were assembled in the
city hall court yard and squads or
police and firemen were assigned to
each of the nineteen barns in the city.
Policemen and firemen also were put
on cars to protect men who desired to
remain at work

The resolution followed the voting
down of a recommendation that no
more saloons where Asiatics are en-

single out saloons for boycott on ac-
count Of employing Orientals when 9TH

SEEKS TO EJECT AGED
HOMESTEADER FROM LAND

SAN BERNARDINO, Feb. 19.-
George r. Degroat, an aged home-
steader, who has desirable ranch at
the mouth of the Santa Ana canyon,
today fought his first innings with the
Riverside Water company which
through it's auxiliary, the Tri-Counties
Water Conservation association, is con-
testing his right to make final proof
on his homestead. The association
wants the land over which to spread
flood waters.
Letters from Francis Cutie, presi-
dent of the association, written to
Degroat were read, showing a clever
effort seems to have been made by the
company to get the old man to agree
to accept an offer for his homestead,
which would have been grounds for its
cancellation. The production of the
letters before the examiner today
caused a sensation.

RATES FOR CARRYING MAIL De-
CLARED EXORBITANT
Attempt to Increase Postage in Order
to Enrich Corporations viii Be
Universally Denounced,
Says Congressman
(Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, Feb. 17.-Any effort
to increase the postal expenses of the
millions that the unnecessary nigh
rates for transporting the mails may
be continued will be almost universally
condemned, and so it should be, as
serted Representative Barnhart OF IN
diana, In addressing the house today
Mr.. Barnhart pointed out various
charges against the postal service,
which he declared were not warranted,
and which, he added helped to create
a deficiency. in the postal revenues.
1.-THE president" Mr. Barnhart said,
States it costs the government cents
pound to carry second class mall
matter. In many instances this mail
matter occupies one compartment OF
car and express matter another car.
On the latter the tariff from Washing
ton to Chicago, a distance of approx
mately 1000 miles, is "a cents a pound
In fifty or more pound quantities. For
shorter distances the price is about
half as much, and for crosS-contlnent
Transportation about twice as much.
If the express companies make large
profits at the rates they charge are
the railroads dealing fairly with the
government in charging two or three
times as much. for carrying mail as
they charge for express shipments
Mr.. Barnhart charged that loose BUS
iness methods characterized the conduct
of the postoffice department.
1.-THE country" he said, lis entitled
to the present mail facilities. Reason
able postage and free mail delivery
have done more to bring the farmer
and the laboring man into deserved
touch with intellectual and commercial
progress than any other public facility
ever given to them. Reasonable rates
also have given opportunity TO mil
lions, who could not otherwise afford
to do so, to supply themselves and their
families with newspapers and maga-
zines that contribute largely to our uni
yersal education and our marvellous
progress. If there is a living man who
uses the mails who is clamoring for
higher postal rates, or curtailed post
al service, 1 never heard of him. But
I have heard of an army of people who
demand continuation OF first-class mail
service with no increase in rates"

SAN BERNARDINO, Feb. 19.--The
Arrowhead Hot Springs company to-
day, in answer to the suit of the Ar
rowhead Water company, a mineral
water firm of Los Angeles, alleges
that the latter company is placing on
the market water represented to come
from the Arrowhead hot springs. which
in reality comes from Cold Water can
yon, and that b. so doing they are
damaging the business OF the hotel and
practicing a fraud upon the public.
The Arrowhead Water company seeks
an injunction restraining the springs
company from shutting off water for
which they had contracted. The de-
PENDANTS allege the other company fail
ed to comply with it's contract and
submit for approval all advertising.

BILL PROVIDES CHECKING
DISEASE AMONG INDIANS

WASHINGTON. Feb. 19.-The fact
that trachoma as we'll as tuberculosis
was widespread among Indians on the
reservations and that trachoma was
prevalent among both white and black
people was emphasized while the In
dian bill was under consideration in
the house today.
Chairman Burke of the Indian COM
mittee succeeded in adding $40 900, to
the bill for the treatment of trachoma,
tuberculosis and smallpox among In
dians.
Representative Stephens of Texas
explained that trachoma had become
prevalent among Indian tribes of the
United States by being brought across
the Mexican border. where Indians
contracted the disease from Chinese
and Japanese.
