SnIem SchooI Finnnces,

Ed. Journal:-In your paper of
November 20, under an article head
ed School Board Will Submit the
Tax Levy, it is stated that tax of
50 mills against AIS mills last year
will be asked for Nor is this all
An additional tax for school sites
and other improvements will be
asked for, and probably will be vot-
ed through as so few people take an
interest in such meetings, and the at
tendance is always scattering Mat
ters of school nature are usually
left to the other fellow. 1t also seems
that the board have been borrowing
considerable money and are badly in
debt And the school houses so bad
ly needed in the outlying districts
are still dreams, Yet an athletic
tield-an unused mudhole-has been
purchased by this board at a consid-
cradle expense. A high school gym,
lot of furniture all unused, and
other things calling for big payments
could be mentioned
A few weeks ago your paper re-
ported a school meeting at which
there seemed to be considerable
sport over the payment of a bill of
some $50 for so-called "sheep dip.
Now perhaps $50 is no larger than a
dime to the school board. but to some
of us $50 don't grow on every bush.
The article mentioned further states
that these gentlemen thought what
is good for the sheep must be good
for the kids" 1t looks to some of us
thought this $50 was simply dumped
in hole in the ground, If the board
wastes money in small matters, who
is to say they economize in large af-
fairs Yet your paper says "the
board has been compelled to econo-
mize in every way to get through. "
This sheep dip" affair looks like it,,

NAMES SECRET UNREVEALED,
DETERIORATION is TOO GREAT
TO SOLVE MYSTERY.
Relics Found I'm Officers Cabin Mostly
OF Rubber--DOes Not Expect 10
Find Human Remains.

Tampa, Fla, June 25.-"The Sc
crets OF the destruction Of the bat
tleship Maine will never be known"
said Gen. w. G. Bixby. chief Of engi-
neers in charge of the work of rails
ing the Maine. on his arrival here to-
day from Habana. The destruction
To the vessel was such. says Gen.
Bixby, and the deterioration has been
so great that it will be impossible to
tell whether the ship was blown up
from a force from the out OF inside.
The greatest force, however. was
from the inside. indicating that the
forward magazine had exploded.
Whether this was from a s.,mpa-
thetic explosion caused by a torpedo
from the outside may forever remain
a mystery.
Gen. Bixby says that unless the
fragment of torpedo Is found there
Is no way of connecting some outside
agency with the blowing up Of the
vessel.
Relics found in the officers cabin
which was aft. consisted for the most
part OF rubber goods. Rubber door
mats look as though they had just
come from the factory. Rubber bands,
rules, triangles. were recovered. The
admiraPs cane has also been taken
from the wreckage.
I'VE do not expect TO find any hu-
man remains" he said. "The crews
compartments have disappeared en-
tireiy. 1t lay in the vacant place
between where the bow now lies and
where the middle of the ship was
broken off. The bottom under this
vacancy is bare wreckage."
Gen. Bixby decared no further re-
velations of consequence are expect
ed. He will leave tomorrow for
Washington.

WALL Street MORE CONFIDENT
STOCK MOVEMENTS HAD REEN
NARROW AND IRREGULAR.
spread OF Drought Into Spring Wheat
Region Impaired Confidence Based
upon Winter Wreat Crop.

New York, June 25.-The narrow
and irregular movements of stocks
through the greater part Of the week
gave way to vigorous demonstra-
ton of strength at the close, follow
ing the decision of the Hartman
merger companies in favor of the de-
fendant companies. The decision was
the one positive development with
decisive influence upon the securities
market, which earlier in the week
wavered uncertainty in response to
reports regarding crop prospects and
the outlook for tariff legislation.
Wall streets immediate recognition
Of the favorable influence upon cor
rorate securities exerted by the find
Ing or the court resulted in the most
striking forward movement of sew
eral weeks. which was not confined to
the Hartman stocks, but affected
other railroad securities and shares
of various industrial corporations
nearly as much.
Relief was expressed at the re-
moval of an uncertain factor which
had hung over the market for many
months. 1t was felt that the decision,
especially when construed in the light
of the Standard Oil decree, would
lend distinct encouragement to cor
pOrations to proceed with various
large enterprises which have been
held in allegiance until the attitude of
the court should have defined more
clearly. This feeling was not dis
turbed by the decision earlier in the
week against the gunpowder combi-
nation. The two rulings were re-
garded as exemplifying the applica-
ton of the light of reason rule as
laid down by the supreme court un-
der which the affairs Of each corpor-
alton would be subjected to independ-
ent judgment.
The influence of the crop situation
UPON ystocks CONTINUED to be Sstf6ng
factor in formulating speculative
opinion. Unfavorable weather con-
ditions, especially the spread of
drought and damage into the spring
wheat region, had the effect of i'm
pairing the confidence based upon
the winter wheat crop.
Advces" from the iron and steel
trade were more cheerful. There was
some waning influence. however,
from the copper market. The events
Of the week in Washington found a
place among the stock market in
f1uences with the possibility Of action
! looking to more general tariff revis-
ion as the most disturbing feature.

Briefly. the hosiery mill situation is
this:
At the last session Of the General
Assembly Governor Blease called up
on the Legislature TO order an inves-
tigation OF the reported rumors of
tubercular conditions at the State
Penitentiary. The Legislature passed
n resolution requesting the State
board of health to conduct an inves-
tigation. This was done, and the
state board Of health recommended
among other things, that the hosiery
mill be abolished. The board also
made the report that. Of prisoners,
examined. so per c mt We're either in
tuhe"cular condition or easily subject
to 1t. These recommendation were
taken up by the state board Of Peni-
here, and the understanding was that
the details had not yet been worked
out. The board gave notice at it's
meeting two days ago that the next
sitting would be on July IL. and that
at that time a statement would be
given out. II had already been an
nounced that the hosiery mill would
be abolished.
Governor Blease now has taken the
position that il appears that the
board Is not going to act Immediately
I'm the matter, and ne has started "the
ball a-rolling" himself. 1t is under.
stood that Chairman Wilson, Of the
state board Of health has stood firm
I'm the position that the mill should
go.
