TEACHERS DROP INQUIRY
REGARDING THEIR FUNDS
National Association Trustees
Assured of Security-Secre-
tary Accused of Favoritism.

CHICAGO, November ga plan t.
investigate the funds Of the Nationa
Educational Association. raised by Presi
dent Ella F1agg Young at the conven'
ton In Boston last summer, was dropped
at the annual meeting Of the trustees
which began today.
Mrs. Young declared that the state
ment OF bank officers that the funds OF
the association were in the hands OF the
bank and not In a safety deposit vault
satisfied her that the securities were all
fight and the investigation was not need
ed She repeated former declaration
that the demand for an investigation
had not implied any mishandling of
funds, but was only to show the mem
finances.
Favoritism Alleged.
Charges of favoritism and misconduct
in office were directed at Irwin Shepard
of Winona. Mimi. secretary of the asso-
citation. by the teachers of Chicago
through Miss Mary NJ. Able, teacher.
Miss Able appeared before the grievance
committee. armed with long communi-
cation, sworn to before a notary public.
Shepard is charged with having re-
fused to permit Chicago teachers to sit
In the convention unless they were In
active service In the schools. They
asserted that he issued certificates to
two New York teachers to represent
schools with which they had no connec-
ton, backing this assertion with a tele-
gram signed by Miss Grace c. Strachan
Of Brooklyn.
Charged With Being Arbitrary.
The teachers also say that Mr.. Shepard
made arbitrary rulings on qualifications
for voting membership, when such were
plainly defined in the constitution" and
added that teachers could not get the
privilege Of sitting in the convention as
delegates from their own schools, but
were forced to buy memberships in their
own names.
The subject was closed with the adop-
ton of resolutions in which the secretary
was instructed not to enroll as active
members in connection with the Boston
meeting schools for which application
was made by persons who did not have
the proper credentials.

Three New Cholera Cases in Rome

ROME. November 26-Three cases of
cholera have been reported from the in

four hours. No deaths have occurred in

Of the period of any note was rumble
by Fullback Rodes of the Navy. which:
however. did no damage. as 1t occurred
in the middle of the field.
Once Near a Touchdown.
The nearest that either side came to
scoring a touchdown was in the second
period, when Hyatt of the Army fumbled
one of Dalton's long punts and Gilchrist.
the Navy plebe, fell on the ball on the
Armys 1O-yard line. put it over. Put
it over" came the cry from the frantic
midshipmen in the north stand, but just
as the teams set themselves for a mighty
effort up went the timers hand and the
period was over.
The third period showed some excellent
foot ball and incidentally brought out
several plays that could be classed under
the head OF new foot ball. One was a
wing shift by the Navy, directed some
times at the right side of the Army line
it was used as a fake formation to cover
up a forward pass on kick. One fake
formation for a goal from placement
badly fooled the Army team. Sowell for
for a Kick, shot forward pass to Hamil-
ton that netted Is yards. This was the
only time that any substantial gain was
made by forward pass, and 1t was
seldom used.
Dalton Scores Victory.
In the last quarter the Navy secured
possession of the ball at the Army's 40
yard line, and by fine line plunging by
Dalton and Clay and a short end run by
Rodes placed the ball on the Army's %
yard line. Here Dalton dropped back for
the seventh time to try for goal from
placement. This time the kick went high.
but 1t sailed true between the goal posts
for the only three points In the game.
Dalton's teammates Rugged him and
danced about with delight, while the mid
shipmen in the stands sent up an awful
din with their megaphones.
The three points looked very big, in
view of the failure Of either team to
carry the ball very far, and the experts
came to the conclusion that. barring a
fluke. the score would not be. changed.
The remainder Of the game showed little
advantage for either side, and the Navy
left the field a winner, making the rec
ord between the two institutions stand
seven victories each and one tie.
Following the close of the game there
was the same Kaleidoscope picture that
has followed previous Army-Navy games
The 600 midshipmen assembled in midfield
formed a great wide circle and rushed to
the colors as the Navy band added to the
din by blaring out patriotic music. After
the celebration was over the victorious
midshipmen marched off the field singing:
"The Army and Navy forever, three
cheers for the Red, White and Blue"

CONGRESS SOON DUE
Short Session Will Begin on

DISAGREE AS TO PROGRAM
TIME FOR WORK LIMITED

Congress will convene one week from
tomorrow at noon for the session which
closes March by constitutional limita-
ton. The short session Will be broken
by the holiday recess usually OF two
weeks duration. putting further limita-
ton upon legislative activity.
Speaker Cannon expresses privately the
belief that this session OF Congress Will
not do very much beyond passing the
necessary supply bills. and in that view
some other House leaders concur. This
prospect is disturbing to President Tart.
who would like to round out some legisla-
ton hitherto recommended and to be
urged again in his forthcoming message,
but the House leaders do not see the way
clear to gratifying his desire.
They point out that three days in each
week are set aside under special rules
the reforms inaugurated by the pro-
gressives and democrats at the last ses-
sion-and that the residuary time is only
sufficient for careful consideration OF the
appropriation bills, especially as the ad-
miDiStration.S demand for economy IN
expenditure is to be met as far as pos
Sible.

Talk of Extra Session.

One mans guess is as good as another
as TO a possible extraordinary session OF
the Sixty-second Congress, although the
consensus of opinion is against it. Deci-
sion will depend upon feeling engendered
during this session and after conferences
of the leaders of the two parties.
Congress will have plenty of work at
hand the day the session opens. Inere
is nothing to be done but call the roll ana
turn to well stocked calendars OF bills re-
ported by committees at the last session.
The committees are organized and over
whelmei with bills, il they care to report
any new measures.
In the Senate the unfinished business Is
the ship subsidy bill. 1t has the r1ght OF
way until 1t is decided to sidetrack 1t for
something else. There are slxty-one piiis
on the general orders of the Senate call
endar. including a number of public build
ing measures. There are twenty-one pllls
dozen or so miscellaneous measures. Inc
Senate calendar is cleaner than 1t has
been for many years.
The House calendars are loaded down,
however There are 1O4 bills on the
calendar of the committee of the whole;
o. on the House calendar: 13S on the
private calendar and ) on the calendar
for unanimous consent, while there are
about 10 motions pending TO discnarge
committees from consideration or olils
not vet reported. For the most part
these measures are not OF general puDnc
importance but relate to specific SUD-
jects local to different sections Of the
country or of semi-private nature.

Delay Partly Responsible.

Fire Chief Astey laid the responsibility
for the loss of life on delay in turning
in an alarm. He says that five minutes
were lost in trying to fight the blazing
gasoline with sand in a barrel. "If those
precious minutes had not been wasted, -
he almost sobbed, I'VE would not have
lost one single life"
David Levy, president Of the Wolf Man
ufacturing Company. and Alfred NJ Wolf.

when they were asked for an estimate of
the loss.
What is loss in the face of this aia-
